What do you do when you realise you have everything you think you've ever wanted but still feel completely empty? What do you do when it all starts to fall apart? The second volume of Moby's extraordinary life story is a journey into the dark heart of fame and the demons that lurk just beneath the bling and bluster of the celebrity lifestyle.

In summer 1999, Moby released the album that defined the millennium, PLAY. Like generation-defining albums before it, PLAY was ubiquitous, and catapulted Moby to superstardom. Suddenly he was hanging out with David Bowie and Lou Reed, Christina Ricci and Madonna, taking esctasy for breakfast (most days), drinking litres of vodka (every day), and sleeping with super models (infrequently). It was a diet that couldn't last. And then it fell apart.

The second volume of Moby's memoir is a classic about the banality of fame. It is shocking, riotously entertaining, extreme, and unforgiving.

I had never been a Moby fan but couldn't stop listening to his story. So brutally honest. I hope he finds some peace.

Unexpectedly riveting

An honest memoir full of every emotion, and an example of money and success not always being the key to happiness. Well written and well narrated.

I was not a Moby fan, so I didn't really expect to like this book so much. I happened to see him on The Wendy Williams show, and his laid back honesty and humility made me like him personally, so I became curious about his story and ordered the book. I didn't expect much, but what a great surprise!
I guess I shouldn't be surprised that a descendant of the "Moby Dick" Melvilles (yes, that Melville. That's how he got his name) would be such a great storyteller, but he is. He reads the book himself, so you get the full flavor. My only reserve from whole-hearted praise of this memoir is the going back and forth in time with each chapter. It makes the story a little tougher to follow at times, but it is not fatal. I loved the book!

Unexpectedly Wonderful!

Moby was by vulnerable in telling his story. Powerful way to let the not famous people know you can get through it all.

I didn't know that much about Moby's music before I read this book, just the hit songs. After reading the book I not only think he's a great writer, but also admire the honesty he told his story with. The also has some very very funny parts as well. I stopped to listen to all his music references as I read the book and now really love not only his music but his taste in other artists music as well. I'm a big fan of him all around now and I'm looking forward to seeing him live someday. Moby, if you have another book in you please write it. Both your books are awesome and meaningful reads. Thank you for all your art.

Great listen. Highly recommend.

The stories here may even be more sad than his first memoir, but once again Moby doesn't hesitate to be brutally honest about his life. Kudos to Moby; and food for thought about the choices we make in life...

just as good as Porcelain....

Ok I have never written a review before something is over- but this has literally taken my breath away.
I purchased this book today and am on chapter 15.

Being a teen of the 80’s w my fake ID dancing in Dallas clubs to this guys music...
Now, hearing some of his messed up experiences, some of the SAME things I have experienced and felt has made me feel more normal and at the same time endeared me to this bad ass rock star! Love him!

BRILLIANT!!!!

Heartbreaking and beautiful does kind of sum it up. If Porcelain seems like a skimmed surface, Then it Fell Apart is the deep dive into the excess and self loathing than can only come with Platinum records. It’s fearless in its honesty, and the authors self reflection, it’s not one would imagine an easy practice. This is an epic tale told with grace and charm and an almost straight man esque delivery that would make Jack Benny proud. I lik Moby the musician, I love Moby the writer.

Reading the first one made this one better. Sad story, but well written.

Moby gave a good read.

You don't have to be in love with someone's politics to appreciate their struggles and resolve. Thanks for sharing your story Moby and I'm looking forward to it third book. Just a tad I listen to this book and the previous one audiobook while taking long bike rides on trails.

It's a great listen thanks Moby.
