Interesting facts and trivia about Moving on Up. By Songfacts®.

This is the biggest hit from the British soul group M People. In it, a woman discards her cheating, boorish man, and is going to better her life now that he's gone. Frontwoman Heather Small provides very distinctive vocals.

The song features on a number of film soundtracks, including The Full Monty, The Next Karate Kid, The First Wives Club and Trance.

"Moving On Up" is the only chart entry for M People in the US, but they had a string of hits throughout Europe in the '90s, when every single they released charted in their native UK.
