"Marching On" is a song by Australian singer Dami Im. The song was released on 7 February 2020[1] as the third single from her sixth studio album, My Reality (2021). It was written by Im and produced by Andy Mak.[2]

Im explained the song was inspired by the strong and resilient women in her life. Im said "It is about a daughter reflecting on the character of her mother. Initially perceiving her as a person who was perfect & unafraid of anything... but then one day realising her mother was just a woman walking through the storms of life with the same frailties as herself."[2] [3]

Im performed the song live on stage at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre for Eurovision – Australia Decides on 8 February 2020.[4]

The song did not enter the ARIA top 100, but debuted at number 11 on the Australian Independent chart.

The music video premiered on 13 February 2020.[5]
