Brontosaurus is a song by rock group The Move.
Released as a single in 1970 from the band's Looking On album. The song marked a major shift in sound compared to their previous single "Curly", presumably Roy Wood's attempt to put some distance between the band and former vocalist Carl Wayne who's MOR leanings caused disagreements with the other members. This song was the first collaboration with former Idle Race front man Jeff Lynne.
Cheap Trick covered the track in 1996.
