"'''Move (You Make Me Feel So Good)'''" is a song by American [[electronic music]]ian [[Moby]], with a chorus sampling from [[Loleatta Holloway]]'s 1980 song "[[Love Sensation]]". It was first released as the title track on Moby's [[extended play]] ''Move'', which was issued on August 31, 1993, as his first release on [[Mute Records]] in the United Kingdom and on [[Elektra Records]] in the United States. It hit number one on the US ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' [[Hot Dance Club Songs|Hot Dance Music/Club Play]] chart and number 21 on the [[UK Singles Chart]].<ref name="UK"/>

"Move" was released as a two-track single from the EP in certain territories, featuring the EP version of the song and a "Disco Threat" mix of the same song.<ref>{{cite AV media notes |others=[[Moby]] |year=1993 |title=Move |type=single track listing |publisher=[[Mute Records]] |id=CD 7 MUTE 158}}</ref> The song "[[All That I Need Is to Be Loved]]" from the ''Move'' EP was also issued as a single and later included in a different version on Moby's third [[studio album]] ''[[Everything Is Wrong (album)|Everything Is Wrong]]'' (1995). Remixes of "Move" were also featured on the [[Everything Is Wrong (remix album)|''Everything Is Wrong'' remix album]] (1996).

== Critical reception ==
[[Everett True]] from ''[[Melody Maker]]'' wrote, "Yes, yes, yes! Finest record of its kind since '[[Ride on Time]]'."<ref>{{cite magazine|first=Everett|last=True|url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/nothingelseon/52969346612/|title=Singles|work=[[Melody Maker]]|date=September 11, 1993|page=29|access-date=June 13, 2023|author-link=Everett True}}</ref> Andy Beevers from ''[[Music Week]]'' gave it five out of five and named it Pick of the Week in the category of Dance. He added, "This EP is Moby's first release on [[Mute Records|Mute]] and is shaping up to be a big hit. Already massive on the nation's dancefloors, the title track is a charging anthemic [[House music|house]] track, identified by its "''You make me feel so good''" female vocal. The various mixes, including [[Marc Kinchen|MK]]'s excellent Blades remix, are ensuring widespread appeal."<ref>{{cite magazine|first= Andy |last= Beevers |title= Market Preview: Dance - Pick of the Week |magazine= [[Music Week]] |date= August 28, 1993 |page= 19 |accessdate= March 30, 2021 |url= https://worldradiohistory.com/UK/Music-Week/1993/Music-Week-1993-08-28.pdf}}</ref> Stuart Bailie from ''[[New Musical Express|NME]]'' said, "Moby gives Jesus Christ a sleeve credit, but the spirit's flagging on "Move". Screaming velocity and Black Box shoutey vocals may signify some big holy show, but maybe they disguise a lack of new tricks."<ref>{{cite magazine|first=Stuart|last=Bailie|url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/nothingelseon/52977627698/|title=Singles|work=[[New Musical Express|NME]]|date=September 18, 1993|page=21|access-date=June 17, 2023}}</ref> Sam Wood from ''[[Philadelphia Inquirer]]'' declared it as "a fiercely energetic dance-floor anthem".<ref name="footsteps">Wood, Sam (October 12, 1993). "Joshua Redman and Zane Massey: Jazzmen Follow in Fathers' Footsteps". ''[[Philadelphia Inquirer]]''.</ref> [[Charles Aaron]] from ''[[Spin (magazine)|Spin]]'' commented, "The only card-carrying human in the [[techno]] scene takes a generically transcendent [[Diva house|house-diva]] vocal and plunges it into a sampled torment of biblical proportions, a war between flesh, spirit, and technology that exudes skepticism and ecstasy in equal spurts. I think I love this guy."<ref>{{cite magazine|first=Charles|last=Aaron|title=Singles|magazine=[[Spin (magazine)|Spin]]|date=February 1993|page=74|accessdate=January 25, 2023|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=76xCnQy_X-0C|author-link=Charles Aaron}}</ref>
