In 2003 Sofia Coppola made the film Lost In Translation with Bill Murray as the world famous movie star who travels around the world. Living in constantly changing time zones, he suffers from insomnia and therefore lives in a kind of twilight zone in which not everything is clear. A problem that many world stars on their travels have to deal with, including Moby. During the many sleepless nights in
… various hotel rooms all over the planet, he often thought he was the only person in the world who was still awake. The towering view of the streetlight that shone only on emptiness enhanced its vague feel in a surreal way. This twilight zone was the inspiration for Destroyed.
