"I'm Moving On" is a song by Yoko Ono. It was originally recorded for 1980's Double Fantasy album, with John Lennon. A remix was released on iTunes on 25 September 2012.[1] The remix debuted at number 39, and peaked at number 4.[2]

Recording

During the Double Fantasy sessions, on August 12, 1980, a version of "I'm Moving On" was recorded with a lineup that included

Arthur Jenkins on percussion and Andy Newmark on drums.[3] Ono recorded her lead vocal on September 19.[4]

Lyrics and music

"I'm Moving On" is in some ways a companion piece to Lennon's "I'm Losing You," which immediately precedes on Double Fantasy.

Playboy Magazine that the song is about "the sense of 'Well, I've had enough. I'm moving on.' But it's not about any specific incident. It's just the feeling: 'I don't want to play games. I like everything straight.' That's a feeling I have had. I'm proud of the song."[3]

Other versions

In 2007, a version of "I'm Moving On" appeared on Ono's album

Allmusic critic Thom Jurek doesn't think this "synthetic disco take" works very well for the song.[7]
