Critical reception

edit

The Stud Brothers from Melody Maker described the song as "a maddened industrial metal, more Motorhead than Cubanate".[3] Sam Wood from Philadelphia Inquirer wrote that it's "All That I Need to be Loved" "which stakes Moby's claim to history. Its simple verse could have been plucked directly from the Confessions of Saint Augustine. Bleating ecstatically, Moby repeats his joyful cry several times - and there's no doubt he means it".[4]
