Move Me

Great album from Midge that I had overlooked at the time. Saw him perform Under A Spielberg Sky on DVD not realising it was on this album. Make sure it’s in your collection

This cd was excellent.

After being let down by another online retailer and have today received my CD from an Amazon Marketplace seller.I am absolutely amazed at the quality of this album. I love Midge's music anyway but this just blew me away.It is in parts great synth pop and incredibly moving tracks that really brought tears to my eyes.Why is this CD so hard to find? With all the chart trash around here is something very special indeed.Buy it here on Amazon if you can.

2014 - having just bought Fragile by Midge Ure, I cast about for more music of his that I might have missed. How the hell did I miss this!!??I've been a huge fan of Ultravox since way back but strangely ignorant of Midge's solo releases.If you love music, listen to this. The man in an underrated and under appreciated musical talent.

I got this for myhubby and this CD was what they said was and my hubby enjoyed listening to it . I have no problem with this seller or the service.

FANTASTIC

It is good to see Midge Ure finally gaining some critical recognition for his recent album, Fragile. Hopefully, as a result of this more people will sit up and take notice of Move Me, his previous collection of original material. My opinion of it is demonstrated by the fact that I have now bought it three times, initially on import in 2000 when there was no sign of a UK release date; again in 2001 when it finally emerged here with a number of extra tracks; and finally, in this Move Me + version, with further live and two previously unheard instrumentals. It has been, without doubt, my favourite album since its original release, combining all the elements of memorable and moving tunes, excellent singing and thought-provoking lyrics that those of us in the know have come to expect from Midge Ure.It is also a very varied album, and for this reason it scores higher for me than Fragile which is predominantly slow and mellow (with the exception of `Become'). There are still very successful contemplative moments on Move Me, for example the wonderful `Let Me Go', `Strong', `Refugee Song' and `Somebody'. However, there are also more raucous interludes (the near-metal instrumental `Monster' and the equally guitar-heavy `Absolution Sometime'). Ure's recurrent themes of personal redemption and fulfilment are well to the fore on several tracks, not least on the very personal sounding `Alone'. If there were any justice at all, then `You Move Me' and `Beneath a Spielberg Sky' would have been massive hits. Unfortunately, at the time, people weren't really listening.I have long felt that if Move Me had been the follow-up to the enormously successful but much-inferior The Gift, then Ure would have had a considerable success on his hands; unfortunately, it didn't happen. However, perhaps appreciation of Fragile will mean that this is changing to some extent: mine is the fourth review of this album in recent weeks, so maybe momentum is gathering.It is a fantastic album, definitely worth discovering.

Having been fortunate enough to see Midge live in an acoustic session in Milton Keynes, it is refreshing to see that the music looses none of Midge's musical passion which is felt throughout the whole of this superb 2 CD album.One thing that always remains constant throughout his career is his AMAZING voice - yes, he really can sing those high notes LIVE - and this is reflected throughout the album's live recordings (CD 2).Midge has always been a fantastic performer and a leader in song writing. MOVE ME:PLUS shows his ability for true passion in song writing and performance, leaving the listener with a lust for more of Midge's creations.This album is a true progression to greater musical heights and goes to prove that there is a lot more life left in this musical genius.PASSION, SATISFACTION and GENIUS all rolled in to one neatly packaged album.
