11:13 - Despite Moby's destitute upbringing, his grandparents were well off and were able to definitively trace their lineage quite successfully, according to his second autobiography Then It Fell Apart

24:18 - Moby's first performance at Top Of The Pops was a surreal experience for him, as he had to pretend to play his own song, and was then told he was "getting too into it" by the producers
