A "Run On" sentence

"As a huge Moby fan, I was tremendously exited to see this disc on the shelf at the local record shop. Two singles that I had seen elsewhere combined on one CD for a relatively cheap price. Unfortunately, when I got it home, I was kind of disappointed. Aside from Moby's mixes, the other remixes were not anywhere close to the brilliancy of the source material. Neither Sharam Jey's or Aphrodite/Mickey Finn's mixes could hold a candle to the originals. The only new tune "memory gospel" is pretty good, a nine minute meditation that would have fit right in on Play, maybe towards the end. I'm not saying that there's anything seriously wrong with this single, just that it seems Moby may want to pick and choose who he lets tamper with music more carefully next time, perhaps opting to do it himself (he usually does it best anyway)."
Exceptionally good

"Moby has outdone himself with this release. I admit that I don't like the Aphrodite and Mickey Finn mix, but it makes the perfect lead-in song to the Run On extended mix. If you have a chance, the best mixes/remixes of both these songs are from the live concerts when Moby goes on tour. The 118 Mix is highly recommended, because it adds a fast element to the quasi-blues of the original song.The other songs are very good, and Memory Gospel is a wonderful song I fell in love with that should have been in the Play album."
