“Strangely Enough That’s Probably The Most Signature Song On The Record And I Actually Had To Be Talked Into Including It. When I First Recorded It I Thought It Was Average. I Didn’t Like The Way I Produced It I Thought It Sounded Mushy I Thought My Vocals Sounded Really Weak. I Couldn’t Imagine Anyone Else Wanting To Listen To It. When The Tour For Play Started “Porcelain” Was The Song During The Set Where Most People Would Get A Drink. But Then Danny Boyle Put It In The Movie The Beach With Leo DiCaprio. It Was Leo DiCaprio’s First Film Since Titanic And Everyone Went To Go See It. He Used The Music So Well In The Movie. I Think That’s When A Lot Of People Became Aware Of The Record”. C RollingStone.Com “I Was Involved With This Really Really Wonderful Woman And I Loved Her Very Much. But I Knew Deep In My Heart Of Hearts That We Had No Business Being Romantically Involved. So It's Sort Of About Being In Love With Someone But Knowing You Shouldn't Be With Them " He Says. Moby Thinks That The Track "is A Much More Delicate Melodic Song Than A Lot Of Other Things That Are Getting Played On The Modern Rock Stations. A Lot Of The Songs I Hear When I Listen To Modern Rock Radio Tend To Be Very Aggressive And Really Heavy. 'Porcelain' Has A Very Warm Emotional Quality To It So I Think That's Why It Stands Out”. C Billboard “The Song “Porcelain” Is Just A Very Introspective Very Wistful Song About Loving Someone And Being In A Relationship With Them But Knowing That The Relationship Isn’t Going To Last But Not Based On Any Animosity Or Rancour You Might Have For That Person But Just Based On An Understanding That You Shouldn’t Be In A Relationship With Them. So It’s A Wistful Mournful Song About Loving Someone But Having To Break Up With Them Anyway”. C Background From The Interview

“I was involved with this really, really wonderful woman, and I loved her very much. But I knew deep in my heart of hearts that we had no business being romantically involved. So, it's sort of about being in love with someone but knowing you shouldn't be with them," he says. Moby thinks that the track "is a much more delicate, melodic song than a lot of other things that are getting played on the modern rock stations. A lot of the songs I hear when I listen to modern rock radio tend to be very aggressive and really heavy. 'Porcelain' has a very warm, emotional quality to it, so I think that's why it stands out”.

“The song “Porcelain” is just a very introspective, very wistful song about loving someone and being in a relationship with them, but knowing that the relationship isn’t going to last, but not based on any animosity or rancour you might have for that person, but just based on an understanding that you shouldn’t be in a relationship with them. So it’s a wistful, mournful song about loving someone, but having to break up with them anyway”. (c) background from the Interview
