Moby Greatest Hits Album to Be Released

This just came in my inbox:

    "Moby's album Go - The Very Best Of Moby will be released by Mute on 6th November 2006. Go - The Very Best Of Moby compiles 15 songs from his unique back catalogue, including seminal tracks from the multi-million and multi-platinum selling albums Play and 18, as well as containing the brand new, previously unavailable song 'New York, New York' featuring Debbie Harry on vocals.
Play was my first encounter with electronica, and I've been hooked ever since. However, 18 was decidedly lukewarm and Hotel was pretty dull, despite a decent cover of New Order's "Temptation" and a bonus CD of ambient tracks. Also, "Go - The Very Best of Moby"?? C'mon; you guys can come up with a better title than that. Why are so many musicians bent on naming their greatest hit comps after their biggest hit song? I don't think The Flaming Lips would be too keen on naming their best of She Don't Use Jelly and Other Smash Hits!

Who can think of a better title for Moby's greatest hits? (And let's assume you're a fan of his music. No entries like Nobody Listens to Techno! Eminem Selects The Worst of Moby)

How about.

Greatest Hits of Sure Fired Misses
or
At Most, The Best of

Hard to call it Greatest Hits since he really has not had any to speak of, save for the Dance Charts, which saddens me.

Love Moby and Debbie Harry, can't wait for New York New York
