Moby on 'The Perfect Life':
"Wayne Coyne and I ended up doing a duet on 'The Perfect Life': we sing the choruses together, and then go back and forth on the verses.
Wayne and I first met in 1995, when The Flaming Lips and I were both opening up for a Red Hot Chili Peppers' European tour. We became friends, shared a dressing room and the same bad craft services, and watched the Chili Peppers from the side of the stage.
I thought of Wayne for this song because The Flaming Lips have evolved in this very open, celebratory band when they play live, and that was the perfect vibe for what I was imagining for 'The Perfect Life.'
I texted Wayne and said, 'Hey, I have a song -- want to sing on it?' Thirty seconds later, he texted me back: 'Yes, send it to me, it will be great.'"
