Audio sample

"The Jam Was Moving" is a 1981 song by the American singer Debbie Harry. It was the second single to be released from her debut solo album, KooKoo. Released with no video and little promotion, after Harry's debut solo single, "Backfired", failed to become a big hit, "The Jam Was Moving" fared even less well, peaking at #82 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and failing to chart at all in the UK.
