3 out of 5 stars Yo!.......2002-09-22

This is the reviw of the song since I havn't actually listened to the single.
Awesome lyrics, but for some reason I feel impatient while listening to this song, it's a little too long. The gutiars really don't help the song, they just give me a headache. This is alot "cooler" than his other songs, and I know alot more people will like it. Not one of my favorites, but a good track.

5 out of 5 stars Stuck in my CD Player for good!:).......2001-04-03

Oh wow! I love the song South Side. Especially with Gwen Stefani. The groove is good too,especially at the end of the song right after the last word is sung,wish it would go on for a while longer.

Well....the remixes are also awesome! And beautiful! I've never heard Moby's other stuff. I've recently become aquainted to his music by 'Porcelain' that's on the incredible soundtrack called 'The Beach'.

But This CD is so worth the money! I LOVED the trancey,dreamy vocals and sounds woven into the last couple songs,WOW.

And the dance-club re-mixes make it my first choice to play for dance parties! This one is gonna be stuck on 'Play'(no pun intended,LOL) for a while!

4 out of 5 stars Here we are now..........2001-03-12

I don't know why I wanted to purchase this album. "South Side" was not one of my favorite songs off of "Play" and I don't really feel the need to purchase singles. I'm not a DJ looking for new, fresh beats to play at a local dance club. I'm not someone who likes listening to every single remix of a certain song.

I guess the reasons I bought this item was because Gwen Stefani's vocals and Moby's additional mixing of the song improved it a great deal and because I was anxious to hear these B-sides since most of the people that reviewed this album loved them. Let me give you a run-down of each track:

1. South Side (Remix f/Gwen Stefani) -- The version you've heard on the radio and seen on TV. This is the full version. The version on the two-track single is an edit. Don't buy the two-track if you want a good bargain. Buy this instead.

2. South Side (Hybrid Dishing Pump Remix f/Gwen Stefani) -- This remix is kinda nice and has some funky extras. The people that made this mix sure had a lot of bells and whistles to choose from. My one complaint is that these remixes are all over 8 minutes long. I got kinda tired of this song about 5 minutes through.

3. South Side (Album Version) -- If you have "Play", you know what this sounds like. Just Moby singing and no additional mixing.

4. South Side (Pete Heller Park Lane Vocal) -- The longest track on the album and frankly, the most boring. Hopefully, I'll enjoy it more with repeated listenings like some of these other reviewers. It takes a while and it only uses minimal parts of the original song.

5. Ain't Never Learned -- A really weird Moby b-side, but it's still good. You can only get this song here (and on the "Tomb Raider" soundtrack).

6. South Side (Hybrid Dishing Pump Instrumental Remix) -- Oooookay, I paid for three remixes of "South Side". Instead, I got two and this. This is basically Track 2 without any vocals. Surprisingly, I think it's better. Moby included this version on his Megamix on the Play DVD.

7. The Sun Never Stops Setting -- This track makes up for any other setbacks this single might have. It is one of the most relaxing and meditative tracks by Moby. It sounds inspired by Vangelis, the music composer for Chariots of Fire and Blade Runner. It has the feel of a song you might hear at the end of a movie. It's a shame that you can't hear it here. Maybe you could download it or something...

If you really want to purchase a version of "South Side" with Gwen Stefani, purchase this Maxi version. I don't know why anyone would want to buy the two-track single when, for only a few bucks more more, you get three (I mean, two and a half) remixes and two awesome B-sides. Definitley worth the money.

(P.S. The cover art is different on my copy. On Amazon, there's a white arrow and a blue background. On mine, there's a drawing of a dinosaur and a orange background. I purchased mine at a retail store, so it may just differ from place to place. ...

5 out of 5 stars A GREAT duet........2001-03-11

Moby is a great performer but adding Gwen Stefani makes this song even greater. I have the walmart single and it has the albumn version and then his duet with Gwen and I think Gwen gives the song a little bit of edge and a great tone for the chorus. Definitely, a song to buy.

4 out of 5 stars good side.......2001-02-21

After a string of more ambient releases, they have decided to release South Side, one of the edgier songs on Play. Found here are 5 remixes inclusive of the Gwen Stefani co-vocaled version which works out into a nice blend with Moby's. Not much different from the original album version, but still has an edge over it. The Hybrid Dishing Pump Remix is an excellent, hi-energy mix that infuses some pretty good beats. The other remix by Pete Heller pales a little but still great for a good dancefloor workout. The two non-album tracks are Ain't Never Learn, a trademark Moby song which features beats and soulful female vocal and The Sun Never Sets (also on B Sides) which is a perfect closing for the 7-track maxi. Overall, a great add to your Moby collection.
