Interesting facts and trivia about Find My Baby. By Songfacts®.

In 2000 this was released as the ninth and final single from Play. It barely troubled the charts in most countries but fared the best in Belgium, where it peaked at #4.

Moby explained this track to Rolling Stone: "Basically just me playing slide guitar over a vocal sample. I added what I thought were hip-hop drums to it. In the '80s I was DJing a lot of hip-hip. At one point I was working at Mars and I used to keep a microphone by the turntables. Big Daddy Kane and Run-D.M.C. and 3rd Bass and Flavor Flav and everybody would go to this club and get drunk, and I had the microphone. I was the weird white DJ for all these rappers where were drinking and rapping to impress their girlfriends."

Play received little recognition from music journalists and radio stations upon its release, so Moby decided to license all of the album's songs for advertising and movies to get them heard, which ultimately led to the album blowing up and becoming a global hit. This tune in particular was used in a commercial for American Express, which featured Tiger Woods playing golf in New York City. It also showed up in the 1999 movie Any Given Sunday and the TV series Charmed in the 2000 episode "Ms. Hellfire." In 2001, it was used in the Colin Farrell flick American Outlaws.
