Movits! () is a Swedish music group from Luleå. The group plays swing mixed with hip hop. Their debut album ''Äppelknyckarjazz'', literally translated as ''Apple swiper jazz'' or '' scrumping jazz'', was released in November 2008 and has been recognized by national Swedish newspaper ''Dagens Nyheter''. The name ''Movits!'' alludes to Fader Movitz, a character in the '' Epistles of Fredman'' by Swedish 18th-century poet and composer Carl Michael Bellman. The band, however, replaced the last character of the name ''z'' with an ''s'' in order to avoid being associated with Swedish bands playing dansband style music, such as ''Lasse Stefanz'', '' Svänzons'' or ''Larz-Kristerz''.

Swedish-language Singers
Swedish ( ) is a North Germanic language spoken predominantly in Sweden and in parts of Finland. It has at least 10 million native speakers, the fourth most spoken Germanic language and the first among any other of its type in the Nordic countries overall. Swedish, like the other Nordic languages, is a descendant of Old Norse, the common language of the Germanic peoples living in Scandinavia during the Viking Era. It is largely mutually intelligible with Norwegian and Danish, although the degree of mutual intelligibility is largely dependent on the dialect and accent of the speaker. Written Norwegian and Danish are usually more easily understood by Swedish speakers than the spoken languages, due to the differences in tone, accent, and intonation. Standard Swedish, spoken by most Swedes, is the national language that evolved from the Central Swedish dialects in the 19th century and was well established by the beginning of the 20th century.
