Keep Moving is the fifth album by the British ska band Madness from 1984. It was the last Madness album prior to their 1999 comeback album Wonderful to feature Mike Barson.

The US/Canadian pressing had a different running order and included the singles "Wings of a Dove" and "The Sun and the Rain", neither of which were on the standard UK version. However, a picture disc version using the US/Canadian track listing was issued in the UK.

The album takes its name from a phrase used repeatedly in the 1970 post-apocalyptic film The Bed Sitting Room.[3]

Keep Moving (song)

"Keep Moving" is the lead single released from the soundtrack of the film 4.3.2.1. The song is performed by Adam Deacon and Bashy, and features vocals from English recording artist Paloma Faith. The track was written and produced by Alex "Cores" Hayes, and was released on 28 May 2010. The song reworks Suzanne Vega's "Tom's Diner". The song also acts as the first single to be taken from Deacon's debut studio record, Kreative Koncepts, due for release in 2013.

Background

Nick Mason and Phil Tidy, producers of the film, were approached by Maya Jenkins at Universal Pictures, who offered to help with the promotion of the film soundtrack. They came up with the idea of releasing a mainstream tie-in video for the track, featuring Paloma Faith, and an underground internet video, which features Deacon and Bashy only. The song was written and produced by Alex "Cores" Hayes, who also features in the video. The video was directed by Nick Mason, and produced by Phil Tidy. Shot on location in the Sanctum Soho Hotel in London’s glittering West End, where parts of the film were also shot, Phil and Nick shot on Red Cam anamorphic lenses, so it would cut in as best as possible with the movie footage.

In the Clear

In the Clear is the fifth studio album by American indie pop band Ivy, released on March 1, 2005 on Nettwerk.

Track listing

All tracks written by Ivy and produced by Steve Osborne.

TV

  • "Ocean City Girl" was used in season 2, episode 8 of Veronica Mars.
  • "Feel So Free" was used in season 2, episode 1, of the ABC television hospital drama Grey's Anatomy.

    Keep Moving

    by: Madness

    Hurry up, don't slow down
    Pick a time, don't let hands pull you down
    If you're waiting
    Have it up, move along
    Say, goodbye, don't let words stay too long
    If you're leaving
    It read, "We missed you"
    Between the lines it said, "Hold it high with a smile
    Speak out loud with the mind of a child, if you're lucky"
    It read, "We missed you"
    Between the lines it said, "Hurry up"
    We really must be going there's no time to delay
    We have to leave our message because we can't stay
    It really is important so remember take care
    Please keep on moving 'cause there's nobody there
    It read, "We missed you"
    Between the lines it said, "We've waited for so long
    But now it's time t-t-to keep moving along"
    Here and there are the signs on the road
    Give way to stop and go when you're moving
    It read, "We missed you"
    Between the lines it said, "We've waited for so long
    But now it's time to to to keep moving along"
    Keep moving, you've got to keep moving
    Keep, keep, you've got to keep moving
