Slade - Run Runaway (RESTORED - SUPERSCALED TO 4K)
“Run Runaway“ is a song by British rock band Slade, released in 1984 as the third single from the band’s 11th studio album, The Amazing Kamikaze Syndrome, and as the lead single from the album’s US counterpart, Keep Your Hands Off My Power Supply. The song was written by lead vocalist Noddy Holder and bassist Jim Lea and produced by John Punter. It reached No. 7 in the United Kingdom and was the band’s breakthrough hit in the United States, where it reached No. 20.
The song is described by Holder as “a rocky Scottish jig“, and features Lea on electric fiddle. In a 1984 interview, Holder said: “We always wanted to do a jig with the old violin going and that. We decided to go in and put a sort of rock beat behind an old Scottish jig.“
A music video was filmed to promote the single, which was directed by Tim Pope for GLO Productions. It was shot at Eastnor Castle in Ledbury, Herefordshire. The video featured the band performing the song in front of an audience dressed in tartan. Other sequences showed a marching bagpipe band and a kilted Scot grappling with a caber. The video was a big success in America, where it received constant showing on MTV.
The 1983 success of Quiet Riot’s version of Slade’s 1973 UK chart topper “Cum On Feel the Noize“ led to Slade signing with CBS Associated Records for their first American record deal since the 1970s. The label soon repackaged The Amazing Kamikaze Syndrome into Keep Your Hands Off My Power Supply and released “Run Runaway“ as the lead single in March 1984. With surging interest in the band and a music video benefiting from heavy play on MTV, “Run Runaway“ was Slade’s breakthrough hit in the United States and would remain the band’s biggest success there; it peaked at No. 20 on the Billboard Hot 100 and reached No. 1 on the Billboard Rock Top Tracks Chart.
