Wake Up (Make a Move)
"Wake Up (Make a Move)" is the third single from Start Something, the second album by the Welsh rock band Lostprophets. This single was under much debate up to its release; both Lostprophets and their management wanted the dark, brooding "Make a Move" as a single, whereas the label wanted the poppier, catchier "I Don't Know". The band and their management walked away victorious and the song was released as a single with the modified title "Wake Up (Make a Move)". However, "I Don't Know" was later released for radio airplay in the U.S. and made it to #11 in the Modern Rock Charts.[1]
The group rarely plays the song in their live sets since its initial release, and have not publicly stated any particular reason for this. This is unusual, as they continue to play songs from Start Something which are less well known, such as "We Still Kill the Old Way" and "To Hell We Ride." A music video was produced for the song and saw moderate airplay upon release.
