"Moves" is a song performed by English singer Olly Murs, featuring vocals from American rapper and record producer Snoop Dogg. The song was released as a digital download on 28 September 2018 as the lead single from his sixth studio album You Know I Know. [1] The song also features on the Johnny English Strikes Again OST. It was written by Ed Sheeran, Steve Mac, Ammar Malik and Snoop Dogg.
The song is similar to " Feels", by Calvin Harris. [2] [3]
This is the second time that Ed Sheeran has written a song for Murs. The first was "Love Shine Down", a track on Murs' self-titled debut album.
Michael Cragg of The Guardian derided the track, joking that "it's dominated by two things: Ed Sheeran, who co-wrote it, likely demoed it and then emailed it over as willthisdo.mp3; and Snoop Dogg, who was no one's first choice and has literally no idea what's going on". [2]
A music video to accompany the release of "Moves" was first released onto YouTube on 17 October 2018. It features Murs sneaking into a nightclub with friends while competing in a dance battle.
Rowan Atkinson appears as a bartender serving Murs energy drinks. Snoop Dogg is heard but not seen as he was unable to attend the filming of the video. [4]
Elsie Hewitt an English Supermodel / Actress is also in the said music video.
