Move Me (Midge Ure album)

Move Me, released 25 September 2000, is the fifth solo album by former Ultravox frontman Midge Ure. Ure produced, arranged and recorded it almost entirely at home.[1] [2]It was released by BMG Records in continental Europe and was not released in the UK until 14 May 2001 by Curb Records[3]. It was also released in the U.S. by Koch Records.[4] "Move Me" was later re-released 2006, by the German Record label Hypertension, as "Move Me+" with a bonus CD featuring two instrumental tracks called "Higher" and "Fall" plus live tracks from 2000, radio sessions and acoustic versions[5]. Promo-videos were made for the first single "You Move Me" and in June 2001 a remixed version of "Beneath A Spielberg Sky".[6] The remix was made by 2Hype, which Ure wasn't fond of.

Ure said about the album in 2000: "If Ultravox had carried on I would like to think that this is probably how they would sound now. It's dark, it's interesting, it's melodic, it's got very interesting sounds."

"The Refugee Song" was inspired by the refugee crisis in Kosovo 1999.
