"Move That Body" is a song by Belgian dance act Technotronic, released in 1991 as the first single from their second studio album, Body to Body (1991). Vocals are performed by Congolese–American singer, model, and actress Réjane Magloire, credited as Reggie. She also co-wrote the lyrics with producers Thomas de Quincey and Jo Bogaert. The single achieved some success throughout Europe, particularly in Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Luxembourg and Switzerland where it was a top-10 hit. In the UK, it peaked at numbers 12 and 13 on the UK Singles Chart and the Music Week Dance Singles chart.
Pan-European magazine Music & Media wrote, "Pumping up the jam again. Demanding dance beats from the Belgian specialists, ready for EHR."[1] James Hamilton from Music Week described the song as a "girl rapped pop canterer".[2] In Record Mirror, he added, "Jo Bogaert new girl Reggi — or Rejana, as she calls herself now — Magloire, once a member of Indeep (but NOT on 'Last Night a DJ Saved My Life', that was Rose Marie Ramsey), raps and chants this 'Hokey Cokey' quoting brisky lurching pop canterer".[3]
