OneRepublic premieres the music video for the new “Runaway” track co-produced by Brent Kutzle, John Nathaniel & Benjamin Samama. Listen, stream, read the lyrics, buy the song.

Grammy-nominated OneRepublic has released their new single, “Runaway.” It is the first new track the band has released since their smash hit, “I Ain’t Worried,” which was featured in the blockbuster hit, Top Gun: Maverick and currently boasts over three billion streams.

In tandem with the single release, the group has debuted the official video for the song. The video made its global broadcast premiere on MTV Live, MTVU, MTV Biggest Pop, NickMusic and across MTV’s global network of channels, as well as on the Paramount Times Square billboards. Directed by Tomás Whitmore, the video was shot during their recent tour in Asia in eight Southeast Asian cities, including Hong Kong, Manila, Jakarta, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, Taipei and Tokyo. The video features the band performing the new single atop the iconic Singaporean integrated resort Marina Bay Sands, featuring its 56 story high SkyPark Observation Deck and the resort’s newly refurbished world-class suites. It serves as the perfect backdrop, capturing the essence of travel and exploration shown in the “Runaway” video.

The video begins with the band boarding a plane to Asia, using the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II – letting the world fade away as they set to embark on the adventure of a lifetime. Upon arrival in Asia, the video delivers a barrage of rapid fire travel clips – syncopated perfectly to the song’s driving uptempo energy.

Also this week, Ryan Tedder launched his Spotify Songwriter page, giving fans a new kind of glimpse into the work he has done with other major artists. The page showcases songs he has written such as “Halo” by Beyonce, “I Know Places” by Taylor Swift, “Sucker” by the Jonas Brothers, “Rumour Has It” by Adele, “Bleeding Love” by Leona Lewis, “Angels Like You” by Miley Cyrus, and many more.

Lyrics

Runaway
Right now let’s just runaway
All that talk is killing me
One last shot, hold onto me

There’s something I got to say to ya
There’s somewhere we gotta go
And now we’re sinking in the sand, chasin’ what we can
Baby, it’s not enough
It’s like we’re stuck in the mezzanine
With twenty floors left to go (oh yeah)
And now we’re driving in the rain, trying to switch the lane
But you already know

So don’t waste this time, yeah I don’t move slow
But one good shot and I’ll let you know
It’s all I want, yeah
Can we just let go and

Runaway
Right now let’s just runaway
All that talk is killing me
One last shot, hold onto me (oh)
Babe, I think we should runaway
I’m my own worst enemy
Blue sky’s only miles away
One last shot, hold onto me (oh)

There’s something I got to say to you
I’m on that new energy (oh yeah)
Not on that easy as it goes, wait for miracles
No, what will be will be

No, so don’t waste this time, yeah I don’t move slow
But one good shot and I’ll let you know
It’s all I want, yeah
Can we just let go and

Runaway
Right now let’s just runaway
All that talk is killing me
One last shot, hold onto me (oh)
Babe, I think we should runaway
I’m my own worst enemy
Blue sky’s only miles away
One last shot, hold onto me (oh)

(Oh yeah)
(Runaway)
One last shot, hold onto me (oh)

Runaway
Right now let’s just runaway
All that talk is killing me
One last shot, hold onto me (oh)
