"Move to Memphis" is a song by Norwegian band A-ha, which was released in October 1991 by Warner Bros. Records as a single from their greatest hits album Headlines and Deadlines: The Hits of A-ha (1991). It was written by Paul Waaktaar-Savoy and Magne Furuholmen, and produced by A-ha. "Move to Memphis" reached number two in Norway and number 47 in the United Kingdom.

In 1991, A-ha had started writing new material for their fifth studio album Memorial Beach when A-ha's label, Warner Bros., suggested releasing a compilation album. The label wanted the band to provide one or two new songs for the compilation and "Move to Memphis" was then recorded for inclusion on the album. To promote its release as a single, a music video was filmed, directed by Erick Ifergan and starring French actress Beatrice Dalle. A new version of the song would appear on Memorial Beach, released in 1993. It was produced by David Z and A-ha.
