"Moving" is a song written and recorded by English singer-songwriter Kate Bush for her debut album, The Kick Inside (1978). It was released as a single only in Japan in April 1978 by EMI Music Japan. Written by Bush and produced by Andrew Powell, the song is a tribute to Lindsay Kemp, her mime teacher. "Moving" opens with whale song sampled from Songs of the Humpback Whale, an LP including recordings of whale vocalisations made by Dr. Roger S. Payne.
Bush performed "Moving" at Tokyo Music Festival, on BBC's Saturday Nights at the Mill, on a Dutch TV show set in Efteling park and on her first tour, The Tour of Life (1979).
