"If You're Never Gonna Move" is a song recorded by British singer Jessie Ware for her debut studio album Devotion. The synth-pop and R&B track was co-written by Ware and UK producer Julio Bashmore, which originally contained a sample from "The Big Shatterer" by the late American rapper Big Pun under its original title, "110%". Upon its release in the United States, however, the song was re-titled to "If You're Never Gonna Move", due to Big Pun's estate not granting clearance for the use of the sample.^[1] It was released as the second single from Devotion on 13 April 2012 as a digital download in the United Kingdom, and later in the United States as an extended play on 15 January 2013 via Cherrytree Records, eventually became the first single from Devotion in the States.^[2]

Upon its release, the song received critical acclaim from music critics for both its downbeat, R&B-infected production and Ware's "weightless" vocal, further stated the song as an "understated offering" from its parental album. Pitchfork eventually named "If You're Never Gonna Move" as the 61st best song of 2012, and later the 134th best song of their number sixty-one on their mid-decade list.^[3] It also achieved bigger commercial success for Ware in the United Kingdom, becoming her first single to enter the top 100 on the UK Singles Chart, and later the highest-charting single from Devotion by peaking at number 41. The song was also the singer's second consecutive top-twenty entry on the Belgium Ultratip Flanders chart, peaking at number twenty.
