"Interlude: Moving On" is the fifth track of Paramore's self-titled record. It was also included in Paramore's extended play, The Holiday Sessions only available on Record Store Day 2013. This song is one of the three interludes on the album, as the other ones are Interlude: Holiday and Interlude: I'm Not Angry Anymore.
"That’s not a song, that’s an interlude. … That interlude is the oldest thing that’s on the record. And if I’m thinking correctly… yeah, that was written when everything went down. We’d never done interludes before, and we wanted something that told these stories in a more humorous way and kind of sarcastic. Like an off the cuff kind of thing… It’s not to them. Honestly, that interlude was a voice note on my phone for a year and a half before anyone else heard it. I wrote that and “In The Mourning” in the same weekend. We chose to use one of them and not use the other. It was not ever supposed to be heard – but it worked with the uke. It was fun. When we first started writing for the album we tried to write songs like we had done in the past. So there’d be a very energetic, melodic guitar riff, with really heavy guitars behind it and big choruses, very complicated…and we were just not inspired. But that was what we were used to doing. So we wrote the interludes when we didn’t really know what to do! They were a way to get past that. Like, OK, we’re just going to use a ukulele in a song, play a funky bass part and sing silly lyrics. I think having the interludes made us put the record together differently. I don’t know. I just think those had to be written in order for us to write the rest of the songs. I don’t know why, but it just felt like the minute we finished those, it kind of took off. I think they are absolutely one of the most important parts of the album. … Taylor bought a ukulele after our trip to Hawaii—he was just super inspired. And those ‘Interludes’ are actually the reason that we were able to get through two different bouts of writer’s block. And honestly, I think a lot of the creative block came from me trying so hard not to write bitter, angry songs. So I feel like all 14 actual songs on the album are not angry, they’re not bitter. And the ‘Interludes’ are what helped me sarcastically—and humorously—get through some of my feelings that I was having when we started writing this album.” - Hayley Williams
