God Moving Over the Face of the Waters (5:43)

Cover of Go: The Very Best of Moby (disc 1)

From Go: The Very Best of Moby (disc 1) and 18 other releases

God Moving Over the Face of the Waters is a neo-classical song released by Moby in his 1995 album Everything Is Wrong. It is primarily a mixture of piano and symphonic synthesizer; the title refers to Genesis 1:2 KJV(And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.).

It was featured in the 1995 motion picture Heat, the 1996 Rover 400 car commercial, the 1999 documentary One Day in September, the trailer for the 2005 movie Syriana, and the 2006 Apple commercial for the Intel-based line of iMac personal computers. According to Moby, this is the favourite song he has written and is featured on his MySpace page. This song is also sampled by Lil’ Wayne in I’m Me off his 2007 EP, The Leak.
