Mr Scruff - Get a Move On 

For anyone wondering, the sax sample, or sample in general, is from "Bird's Lament" by Moondog.

First heard this song in the old Lincoln Navigator commercials. Loved it.

I heard this in an Electro Swing mix and I had no idea that this was made by the same guy who made the windows 7 sample music

I remember watching this in a segment of Toonami on Cartoon Network in the early 2000s. Those were the days of good cartoon shows.

I still remember when this came on Toonami during the day. I would always love when the saxophone would comeback in the song. I wanted to hear more of what that sound was, and this is what started my obsession with jazz music.

Ah Windows 7, how your random music selection got me here.

I just searched for "All like to keep moving boy" Hats off to RU-vid, the search capabilities are excellent

I LOOOVE THIS SONG!!!! I used to hear it all the time but never knew who made it!! LOOVE how this music has a mixture of the origination of jazz, house music, and that 1930s/1940s sound!! It's really nice!! LOOVE IT!!!

The artwork for this video is.. impeccable.

I've been looking for this for years

What a simple and true expression of what today's world is all about. A masterpiece indeed.

This isn't a song. This is an experience. This is what they play while you're walking up the stairway to heaven.

Love it! Listening since 1999. Good old times...

1999 music was weeeiiiiirrrddd, like some kind of sick fever dream.

Moondog sample there - "Bird's Lament"

I remember this song being in Lincoln commercials back in the early 2000s.

Never forget the 2003 Lincoln Navigator Commercial.

After all these years, I finally know the name of this beautiful piece from a 2002 Lincoln Navigator commercial.

Such a simple tune with simple lyrics, but it has so much personality! A very characterful song...

Just brought my first car... this was the very first song I heard on the radio 😀😀

I love this era of house/break music. Oddly enough, i always think "oh, this sounds like it should have been in SSX"

Never heard this before until I was listening to Music on Hold while waiting for my customer service rep to come back. I don’t know how anyone can listen to this without getting up and dancing. Love love love it!

I like the animation lol

I think they used this song for the Lincoln commercials in the late 90's early 2000's

This is going to be a somewhat long comment and slightly eccentric, but it will all tie together at the end... My name is Chad Stein and I'm a professional photographer from Fremont, California (the Bay Area). Back on August 8th of 2018, I traveled to the famous city of Napa with my mom. While in Napa, we stopped at a place called "The Oxbow Market" which is an indoor venue with eateries and small shops. After browsing inside, we decided to take a seat at a small sitting area outside of one of the restaurants. There was no one out there and it was fairly quiet. Playing softly in the background was ambient music from a speaker-system which was for the restaurant that we were at. While conversing with my mom, the music caught my ear. I paused the conversation momentarily to take a quick-listen...I caught literally 2 seconds of the music. It wasn't enough time to pull out my phone to record it or find out what the song was. After processing it in my head for a few seconds, I said to my mom: "I think I know what song that was. I'll check it out when I get home". So the day continued in Napa until I got home later that night. Upon arriving home, I checked out the songs that I thought it could've been...unfortunately, none of them were correct. I then went on my computer to search through my folder of MP3s which I've accumulated over nearly two decades. Since the speakers on my computer were broken, I was just looking at the artists' names and song titles to see if I could place the tune with the proper track. By the way: I have an extremely eclectic taste in music. After hours of searching, there was no luck. This began a very, very long journey. Following that night, those 2 seconds of the song looped in my head...over and over again. It was an extreme case of "ear-worm". I tried to think rationally and logically as to where I might have heard the song before. First, I thought it was in a car commercial back in the 2000s. So I watched a ton of car commercials from the 2000s...no luck. Then I thought that it was from an alcohol commercial from the 2000s. As you probably guessed: I watched a bunch of alcohol commercials from the 2000s. Still, no luck. I had nothing to go on other than the 2 seconds or so that kept looping in my head...I didn't hear any lyrics and I couldn't place what came before or after those notes. Since I'm not a musician, I couldn't replicate what I was hearing, other than through a crude "hum". From there, I actually found a website where you can hum into your device's microphone and it would detect the song. I was optimistic that it would work, but it didn't. I was only able to describe the notes that I heard as being "smooth" and "jazzy". So I then searched the internet far and wide for music that fit that criteria. As one could imagine, the results that populated were massive. Next, I started getting what I could best describe as "audio deja vu"...I would hear music and say: "Was that it?". Every time, it wasn't. This persisted day in and day out. As time passed, the amount of time that I'd recollect the music was less, but it still popped up from time to time. Please understand: I wasn't being tormented to the point of psychological distress in any way, shape, form or fashion. I simply just couldn't figure out this mystery. Before I proceed I'd like to mention that random words, phrases and things of that nature pop up in my head from time to time... With that being said, on the night of August 6th, 2020 (almost 2 years later to the day), I was showering late at night. While in the shower, the words "Mr Scruff" popped up in my head, randomly. Not knowing why, I said to myself: "I'll check it out on the computer later". Later that night, I used the search option on my PC to search for "Mr. Scruff". It came up with a result and a song name. I then said to myself: "Well, the speakers don't work on my computer still. I'll check it out on my phone before I go to bed". Even later that night, I watched several videos on my phone while laying in bed before going to sleep. Right when I was about to put my phone down for the night (or morning), I decided to search for that "Mr. Scruff" song on RU-vid. Immediately after clicking the play button, I became so ecstatic that I almost cried tears of joy. At 4:06am on Thursday, August 6th 2020, the mystery ended..."Get A Move On" was the song.

This music video is just pure wholesome randomness and silliness and I love it more than I ever have.

I remember this being the background music in Lincoln commercials for a while.

This is one great tune and I heard it on the recent B&Q adverts and just fell in love with it. Totally addictive.

I remember listening to this amazing song every damn day, thanks for being a part of my childhood.

2020 ..Still Loving Mr Scruff

One of the all-time greats

I remember this popping up on late-night TV years ago, and being completely taken with it. This piece was in my car CD collection for many years. He did the drawings for the animation too, you know.

My God, this came out *20* years ago! The sample, *"Bird's Lament"* by Moondog, came out in 1969.

This guy has made a electro swing song in 1999. Incredible!

For anyone wondering,, the sax sample is by Moondog - Bird's Lament

This is one of those tracks that I've heard countless times on TV, but have never found out what it is. Now I have, and I am constantly replaying it.

Saw this on CN Toonami like 15 years ago, only had a vague idea of what I saw but I was interested. Saw this video and that dormant memory came back to me.

i've been looking for this shit since it was on those Lincoln Navigator Commercials years back....damn good stuff.

Yes..the new B&Q advert brought me here. Love a catchy song :)

Damn this brings back memories from 99. Ninja Tune golden years

Does someone could explain me why this track has so few views. This isn't a f*cking masterpiece ?

One of the cleverest and best dance records ever made!

This is such a fantastic mix made with two old songs and a small touch with new-days beat ... lovely awesome ...

20 years.. Like it was yesterday! Still unreal!

wow, it's been a whole decade since I've last heard this. still amazing.

i’ve been looking for this for YEARS i had no idea it was mr scruff... i remember the music video so vividly

First heard this jam in 2005 on Sirius Radio around 2/3 a.m. driving through the Mojave Desert coming back from Las Vegas.

Audios One step beyond skate video... forgot which skater had this in his part but brings me back to my youth..

Came here from the B&Q advert, Great tune!

my parents would listen to this all the time. such a good song

happy ninja tune party Mr Scruff

WE BE GETTING A MOVE ONE WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

reminds me of the old times of jazz, love it.

bro when i listen to this song i enter a different dimension thats how good it is

I remember seeing this in pretty heavy rotation back in 1999 on MTV2 back in the days when they played nothing but music videos, often vids that weren't played on MTV. Ah, memories! 😕

What a chill - this makes me long for the afterglow after a good session.

When I am at my lowest point this so brings me back from the brink "you got to keep move in or you'll be left behind" Thanks Mr. Scruff and Ninga Tune

Still Rockin & Keep Movin in 2020🎤🎶🎺🎻🥁!!! 257 People "Who Don't Like This Jam" are Left Behind...

Keep it Unreal, them were the days, best night in manc in the 00s..ecstasy was a hell of a drug!

The first Ninja Tune song I ever heard. Love it ever since I first saw this music video on MTV Dance's Chilled sessions during weekend mornings

Me too! And I've been looking for this since I was in junior high!

The animation in this is cute :3

This song is so good ...

"You better keep movin'...or you'll be in FBI."

It's been 15 years! First heard this song in a Lincoln Navigator commercial.

Great work.

"You don't got 2 keep movin' forward.. But you'll be left behind." ----

This is so wonderfully evocative.

old skool at it's best

4 dislikes, just proves that scruff is timeless.. epic track!

Carajo, un clasico

reviving this

I love this video!

Moondog!!

This is taken from a track written by the Viking of 6th Avenue, or Moondog (otherwise known as Louis Thomas Hardin.) The track was written in honour of his friend 'Bird' or Charlie Parker to the rest of us. If you have a quick read about Moondog, you will see he is a far more interesting character than even the Ninja Tune crew: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moondog

The guy with the drum that would show up on the screen waving his arms around was my favorite part

Classic. Wonderful 1930s feel which I have liked this track for years. I made my own sleeve/CD cover for this lol! Still use and listen to it. x Keep Movin'.

B O B 'S W H E L K S

The video url has "Ham" in it.

Thanks a lot for share. I've loved this. Wonderful Music!

Great choice of sampling of Moondog. Brilliant, actually.😍
