Hymn (Moby Song)
"Hymn" is a song by American electronica musician Moby. It was released on May 16, 1994, as the first single from his third studio album, '' Everything Is Wrong'' (1995). The single version, which was radically remixed from the album original and retitled "Hymn (This Is My Dream)", peaked at number 31 on the UK Singles Chart and number three in Finland. A 33-minute ambient remix was released as "Hymn.Alt.Quiet.Version". Critical reception Steve Baltin from ''Cash Box'' described "Hymn" as a "beautiful piano tune". Andy Beevers from ''Music Week'' gave it four out of five and named it Pick of the Week in the category of Dance. He wrote, "Moby can always be relied on to come up with a novel and commercial twist on the house formula. This time he goes for a full-blown choral treatment with the hard-edged synth sounds."
