"'Movin' On" is a song written and recorded by English girl group Bananarama. It was the first single released from the album Please Yourself in 1992. This is the first single released by Bananarama as a duo, as Jacquie O'Sullivan had left the group the prior year. It was produced by Mike Stock and Pete Waterman, two-thirds of the Stock Aitken Waterman (SAW) trio who had produced a bulk of Bananarama's past hits.
"Movin' On" is a pop song with disco influences, as Stock and Waterman attempted to create a ABBA-like sound for the Please Yourself album. The single met with mixed reviews and moderate success when released, peaking at number twenty-four in the UK singles chart.
The music video begins with the girls performing from behind a wooden cut-out of the image that appears on the cover of the single. They emerge from behind it in red dresses and descend a staircase as scantily clad showboys with feathered fans perform around them. Several muscular men pose on podiums as live Grecian statues. They make a languid exit down the long runway of a stage.
The song was later covered by Steps on their second album Steptacular.
