Running Away

Le Bon wrote it, as every song on Pompeii, and it is track six at 5:43. It was announced with the album on October 12, 2021. The Fader called it a gentle interstellar disco track, Stereogum's Chris DeVille a wobbly, disorienting, eerily playful track that seems to melt over six minutes, compared to Brian Eno's art-pop, and the Line of Best Fit a creeping build with rubbery synths and saxophone bursts. No statement from her on this song specifically was found; track credits are those of the album, with saxophone by Hinshelwood and Black and drums by Stella Mozgawa.

Casey Raymond directed the video, which is full of lasers and has Le Bon as a cathode-ray nun and a stoic saxophone player, in saint-like hooded cloaks per Rolling Stone UK. Setlist.fm shows 46 plays; its most-played songs are "Home to You", "Mother's Mother's Magazines" and "Daylight Matters". No chart position, covers or samples were found, and we do not know whether our upload is the album version or the video.
