Análisis (en inglés) - Amazon.com :
Moby is back on dance floor turf after the full-body assault of the hardcore Animal Rights. Here he rounds up his existing soundtrack work (for The Saint and Scream, among others), debuts his funky retro take on the James Bond theme (rejected by the producers of Tomorrow Never Dies), and reprises his towering guitar assault on Joy Division's "New Dawn Fades." Fans of his classic Everything Is Wrong disc should check "Go," a house track fueled by a Twin Peaks sound bite. --Jeff BatemanAnálisis de usuario (en inglés) - 2001-04-24
- Movie Music by MobyI bought this CD after listening to Play what seemed like 100 times. I knew after listening to that special album that I had to have more of the Little Idiot. Several people on Amazon recommended I Like to Score to be the next CD to get after Play. It took a couple of more listens than Play and not every track is as strong as Play but it is still a solid album. Here's the track listing: 1) Novio -- Not on any other previous Moby album. It was from the movie, Double Tap. It starts with piano and then has some chants. It's like alot of Moby's other ambient pieces. 2) James Bond Theme (Moby's Re-version) -- This was supposed to appear in the James Bond movie, Tomorrow Never Dies, but for some inexplicable reason it was left off hence the term "inspired". This is without a doubt one of the best tracks on this album and one of Moby's all-time best. It is fast, furious, and fun. 3) Go -- Actually not appearing in any movie, Go contains elements from Laura Palmer's Theme from the now defunct TV show, Twin Peaks. This song is Moby's most famous early song. It has also appeared on his CDs: Moby, Early Underground(completely different version from what's here), and Rare(which features 14 different versions of it!) It's a very good techno track which is what he was known for in his earlier career. 4) Ah-Ah -- A song that first appeared on the Moby album. It was featured in the movie, Cool World. This version has been re-recorded and sounds 20 times better than what is on Moby. Another great techno track. 5) I Like to Score -- Another song that was in Double Tap and not on any other previous Moby album. It is a funky instrumental track that always reminds me of Shaft. 6) Oil 1 -- A song that was in The Saint; it also does not appear on any other Moby album. I really like this song as it is a fast-paced dance song with a woman doing great moaning sounds in the background. 7) New Dawn Fades -- A song that was in Heat; it is also like a couple of the others in that it does not appear on any previous Moby albums. A track that is not dance or techno to say the least, this is angry Moby with guitars blazing. I think this track is a better guitar track than anything on his predominant alt rock CD, Animal Rights. 8) God Moving Over the Face of the Waters -- A track that appeared on Everything Is Wrong and in the movie Heat. This version has been edited a little bit compared to what was on Everything Is Wrong. It is a great example of symbolic music and one of my favorite tracks. 9) First Cool Hive -- Another track that appeared on Everything Is Wrong and in the movie Scream. This track has also appeared on commercials. It's a great dance track with a woman humming in the background ala Enigma. Another one of my favorite tracks. 10) Nash -- A very short track that was in Double Tap and had not appeared on any previous Moby album. This piece is too short to really be judged. 11) Love Theme -- From the movie, Joe's Apartment, this is a beautiful instrumental piece that once again makes its debut on this CD. A very soothing piece to listen to. 12) Grace -- From the movie, Space Water Onion, it's the final track and yet another that had not appeared on any previous Moby album. It's strictly an ambient piece that reminds me alot of Also Sprach Zarathustra (2001: Space Odyessy Theme). In summary, the top-notch tracks are #2, #3, #4, #6, #7, #8, #9, and #11. However, the remaining tracks are good, too. Only 4 of the 12 tracks have appeared on previous Moby albums, so it's worth your money and time to invest in this product. Although this CD is no Play, no CD by Moby will ever be "another Play". However, I Like to Score showcases Moby's many different styles--techno, pop, ambient, and hard rock. If you liked Play and Moby in general, then this is a mandatory selection for your CD collection.

- A very cool disc with 4 priceless tracks.I bought this disc after falling in love with "Play" and am glad I did. It is not as good as "Play" but there are 4 tracks that are worth the price of this disc: "Novio" is haunting, "James Bond Theme" is a brilliant and witty rethinking of 007 music, "New Dawn Fades" from the movie "Heat" captures that film's hard edges perfectly while "God Moving Over The Face Of The Waters" (also from "Heat") is elegant dreamy and beautiful. There is not a single weak cut among the reamining eight.

- bodyrock"God Moving Over The Face Of The Waters" is soooo awesome, my favorite on this album. If his PLAY album totally moves you (like it does for me), I LIKE TO SCORE will send your body rockin just the same. Of all the Moby albums, I'd say this one gets the creative juices flowing the most.

- Moby covers the entire genre on this amazing album.I had originally bought this CD for the re-mix of the James Bond theme but I found that every song was a masterpiece. The CD's half dance and half slow, movie-like instrumentals. It's the perfect CD if you want to dance one minute and chill out the next. If you're going to get only one Moby CD, this is the one.

- I like this scoreMany Moby's fans often treat this album as his weakest effort collecting rare,unreleased and re-recorded tracks used in movies.actually thees songs are not that bad as some say. Of course it is not a Regular album but it is not lacking any chronology and it is very good as you listen to it from begining to the end. 1."Novio" - Typical slow moby track with ambient piano and some gregorian choirs.very poetic and relaxing. 5/5 2."james bond theme" - energetic,agressive and dancable theme with kiler guitar.horns are outstanding.i really like that track,it is really dynamic and fun 5/5 3."go" - Moby's classic,his first hit.Contains theme from David Lynch's Twin Peaks theme.dark,full of electronic beats,amazing.this version is refreshed a bit but still very fine. 5/5 4."Ah-ah" - very psychedelic acid-techno song.wierd but good,this songs was on his debut album,here it is remixed and it sounds more agressive 4/5 5."I like to score" - quite short song driven by funky guitar.it is only interlude for me,nice but nothing special 3/5 6."oil 1" - this was on "the saint" movie,fast dance track,musically it is moby at his best techno years but the woman moaning here can make it sound boring after some time. if not the woman's voice i wuold give it five stars. 3/5 7."new dawn faces" - amazing Joy division cover,Moby songs here and whole songs has havy guitar arrange.different than the rest of album but i just love that songs in both versions.Hard rocking track. 5/5 8."god moving over..." - great ambeint piece,one of the best from "everything is wrong" album,here is in shorter edited mix,100 times weaker than long album cut. you must hear it in 8 minutes version to feel it. 3/5 9."first cool hive" - relaxing track from "everything is wrong" - here in longer version.driven by great vocals and interesting bass riff.one of my favourites 5/5 10."Nash" - short spanish styled piece. 3/5 11."love theme" - guitar sounds like Mike Oldfield himself recorded it.the songs sounds sadly quite standard and too sweet,but hey,it's love theme. 3/5 12."grace" - sit down and relax to this 5 minutes minimalistic piece of music.simmilar to some "play" tracks. 4/5 In conclusion it is a must-have for any moby fan. I got this album after "play","18" and "everything is wrong" and i like really this cd,it reminds of more earlier moby style represented by his mid-nineties records. Do not expect a masterpiece,it is a collection,but tracks like "go","new dawn fades","novio" or "james bond theme" are making it a really good buy
