"Move" is a song recorded by British girl group Little Mix. It was released through Syco Music, as the lead single from their second studio album, Salute (2013). It was co-written by members Jesy Nelson, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Jade Thirlwall and Perrie Edwards with Maegan Cottone and Nathan Duvall, and produced by Duvall.

Musically Move has been described as a dance-pop and R&B song that sees the group move away from melody-led ventures, and features a more bass synth-oriented sound.[2] The song received acclaim from music critics, who praised them for their approach towards new sounds compared to their previous work. It was named by Billboard as one of 100 Greatest Girl Group Songs of All Time.[3]

The song peaked at number three on the UK Singles Chart, at number five on the Irish Singles Chart, and charted in eight other territories including Australia, France, and Japan. The group performed the song on both the Australian and American versions of The X Factor and at the Billboard studios in New York.[4] It has been certified platinum in the UK and Brazil and certified gold in Australia.
