Angie McMahon wrote "Slow Mover" herself and released it on 9 October 2017 as her first single, and it later became the lead single for her 2019 debut album, Salt. The Australian singer has explained it as a song about pouring your energy into what's worth it and giving yourself plenty of time to get somewhere good. She'd spent a long stretch pining after love, she said, but her head was turning, and what she really wanted was to chase her music career.
Taking her time paid off: the song picked up a gold certification at home in 2019, with platinum following in 2021, and at the 2019 APRA Music Awards it was nominated for Song of the Year and Rock Work of the Year.
