Movin' Out: Songs for Packing

Moving_out_theater_ticketsDust bunnies dive-bombing my head, crack-revealing construction dudes raising hell, all my neighbors being shipped off to brave new worlds: Big renovations going on here at the ol' SPT. I'm the last of the Newsfeatures crew to be packed up and shipped out to another floor. Everything around me has been torn down. It's just me and my desk and my computer, the loneliest writer in the world (besides Matt Drudge, that is).

So here you go, "SD's Move It or Lose It Mix"
1.) The Way You Move -- OutKast
2.) Move It On Over -- Hank Williams
3.) Movin' Out (Anthony's Song) -- Billy Joel
4.) I'm Movin' On -- Ray Charles
5.) I Like to Move It -- Reel 2 Real
6.) Move It Like This -- Baha Men
7.) Bust a Move -- Young MC
8.) Make a Move on Me -- Olivia Newton-John
9.) Leader of the Pack -- the Shangri-La's
10.) Leave It -- Yes

You've got me on this one. Only thing I can think of is "Move It On Over" by George Thorogood. But I don't know if that's the same version as Hank Williams. I'm not up on Senior's music.


I am ashamed:

"Move on Up" -- Curtis Mayfield

In your case doesn't "Beat It by Michael Jackson" seam to be more fitting

"Get Outta My Way" by Cowboy Mouth
"Drivin' Feeling" by Dash Rip Rock
And, for a long-range move "Christopher Columbus Transcontinental Highway" by the Continental Drifters

sparky you are way to funny!
i like the i like to move it... i think it was a hit after the movie madagascar.. that movie was rele cute..
