The Day (Moby Song)
"The Day" is a song by American electronica musician Moby, from his tenth studio album '' Destroyed'' (2011). It was released as the album's second single on May 9, 2011. Background Moby talked about the track on his website blog, saying "'The Day' was written in a hotel room in Spain at dawn when I hadn't slept. It was a beautiful hotel room, a beautiful perfect hotel room and it was six or seven in the morning. I wrote it on an acoustic guitar and recorded it on my phone, brought it home and re-recorded it with old broken down electronics that I have in my studio". The track is a return to a more electronic sound than his last album ''Wait for Me''. Moby says it was inspired by David Bowie and Brian Eno's production "circa '' Low'' and '' Heroes''". This song and " Bleu Noir" by Mylène Farmer both use a similar backing track (the latter song was also produced by Moby). Release "The Day" was first released in advance on April 2, 2011 on the iTunes Store. The song was ...
