It matters 100%. The original is by Mission of Burma.
The video edit of Moby's cover changes the chorus from "That's when I reach
for my revolver" to "That's when I realize it's over." MTV wouldn't play it
otherwise, out of fear they would be criticized for glamorizing handgun
violence. This teaches us nothing new about Moby, but does say something
sad about Mission of Burma.
