Info "Don't Stop Movin'" (help·info)

"Don't Stop Movin'" was a single released by UK pop group, S Club 7 on April 23, 2001.

S Club 7 recorded the song in early 2001 after they finished making their second album, "7", with their regular songwriter, Simon Ellis, and Shep Solomon, who had worked on Geri Halliwell's hit, "Bag It Up". The song is notable for being made in a disco style and it features real violins and string instruments. The song was believed to be their "coolest yet", and some even cited that this new sound of S Club 7's was a result of the infamous cannabis incident with the male members of the band (see the main S Club article). The song also samples Michael Jacksons hit song Billie Jean. The song was released in April 2001, and hit #1 twice in the space of a month (incidentally, it was Geri Halliwell's "It's Raining Men" that spent two weeks atop the #1 position in between), becoming the year's seventh biggest-selling single, and scooping the BRIT Award for Best British Single in 2002 and ITV's Record of the Year accolade. The song made it to number 3 in Q magazine's "Guilty Pleasures" list in August 2006.
