Movin' Right Along was written by Paul Williams and Kenny Ascher for The Muppet Movie in 1979, performed as a duet by Jim Henson as Kermit and Frank Oz as Fozzie during their cross country drive to Hollywood. The song became one of the film's most remembered musical numbers and has reappeared on Muppets albums, covers and tribute performances. Online, short clips are reused for travel edits and moving day posts because the title phrase itself has become shorthand for cheerful progress.
