produced by shellback and out next month.
here is a live performance from a far away mythical land called china:
i must say i'm not sure quite how i feel atm regarding it
It sounds potentially massive to me, are they bagpipes I hear? However, I feel like she's lost the chance of getting future success in the US as I doubt radio will pick her up in a big way again after 'I Really Like You' not being massive. The UK and Ireland still seem to be here for her though!
I think it sounds incredible, seems to have a really strong melody. I hope the studio version delivers.
Sounds interesting, but I'll wait until the official version leaks before I can give a proper opinion.

This could be amazing
POP MUSIC EMERGENCY!!
https://soundcloud.com/stef-138/rawm
This is so incredibly instant, so catchy, massive ad-libs in the final chorus! This in HQ will be sensational!
The middle 8, the 'Run Away With Me' chant throughout the song, the insanely catchy saxophone/bagpipe sound. This is massive, I'm in love!
I really hope Radio 1 and Capital support 'Run Away With Me' because this could be absolutely massive.
This could be massive for her. It's great.
Hopefully get's more support than IRLY in the UK but more importantly in USA.
THIS IS AMAZING
NO WORDS. So much better than IRLY, which I kinda went off quickly. It was a blatant attempt at recreating CMM, which ultimately failed as it was just cute for a whille unlike CMM which is still pop perfection. This is much more anthemic and just a "bigger" sounding song, surefire hit with support.
I don't think it's better than "I Really Like You" which is one of my songs of the year, but it is really catchy and a nice follow-up.
This is great! The production and melody are fab. I love 'I Really Like You' too, have a feeling I'm gonna get the album.
Run Away With Me is f***ing phenom. Song of the summer contender.
This is easily the best song of hers that I've ever heard So instant like you said. She has delved in some horrors in the past (mainly: 'Tonight I'm Getting Over You') but this blows any of these out of the water. Sold on first listen!
This should have been the comeback, it's huge!
I think this would have got her taken more seriously if she'd have returned with this.
Considering IRLY was a hit over here, I hope she gets the support she deserves.
I don't think it sounds like a #1 but I think it could match the success of 'Good Time'.
This is actually quite good, altho after IRLY it wasn't hard to up her game
This is pretty incredible really, isn't it? For me, it's like when Taylor did "I Knew You Were Trouble" and she was no longer a girl just doing cute, fun pop, she was really making big stuff. This is undeniably fantastic and everything a pop song should be without any of the cringe "I Really Like You" tagged along with it. Extremely impressed.
Whether she still has enough support to do well anymore, I'm not sure. Scherz might have a very good point that she'd be in a much better position right now if she'd have led with this.
Yep, sounds like a smash. Very very catchy and exactly what she needs as a follow-up.
I still think it was smart to lead with 'I Really Like You' though, as she was gone so long and that song's cutesy novelty appeal was in the same vein as the only thing she was remembered for, so it was a clever re-introduction (and I say that as someone who's actually indifferent to the song itself). If she'd led with this, I'm not sure it would have made the same impact from the off, however now she's regained the profile for it to fulfil its potential.
IRLY made very little impact regardless of whether it was novelty or not. It's more annoying than novelty to me.
It didn't do the job it was supposed to. It re-introduced her but nearly every major market, bar the UK, turned its nose up at the song. I'm talking Germany, Sweden, Aus, US.. Sure, it went top 40 but it was a disappointment.
They could have kept some more of the novelty elements but re-introduced her with this track.
I guarantee that Tom Hanks lip synching to this song would have got the same attention but the single would have performed better because it's a superior track.
It's INCREDIBLE! Exactly what I was hoping from it. Great production, good lyrics and what a whopper of a chorus.
I don't think shes in a great position. IRLY was meant to replicate CMM's success hence why Scooter kept saying "It's the better version. It's a huge hit" and getting Bieber to do another video.
This new-wave 80's synth sound in the current pop songs are kinda amazing. I'm LOVING the quality of them all! This song is just brilliant. PLEASE be the hit you deserve to be!
This is excellent! I agree that IRLY was the best song to reintroduce herself with, and hopefully this song will keep the momentum going.
oh my god this is SPECTACULAR
this + irly = popstar of 2k15
This is good but not as incredible as everyone here seems to think.
I Really Like You was the PERFECT song to re-introduce her with, like others have said, it's very much in the same vein as Call Me Maybe and that's what she needed. Maybe this could be her I Knew You Were Trouble. compared with IRLY's We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together though? Hard to say at this early stage of course but it seems possible.
Oh and if IRLY couldn't smash in the US, I'm not sure anything would have, especially with the hype that seemed to have with the video.
Seeing as though I seem to be missing something, would someone mind explaining to me how releasing IRLY was the PERFECT choice and leaves her in a good position in any way?
Personal opinions on the song aside, it flopped. Worldwide. It was catchy, yes. But it did not do the job it was supposed to..
They wanted a huge #1 and it was labelled a superior Call Me Maybe. It managed top 40 and just about scraped through in some territories. The UK was the only place it went top 3. It didn't even make top 10 in Canada!
Yet IRLY has put Carly Rae in a good position? How? Unless you mean UK?
To be honest, I never expected her to even get a charting single in the US again. It's hung around a bit and raised awareness that she's still around, which could set this up well enough.
She did what The Saturdays usually do and released the less good single first. She should have come back with a bang - ala this new single. It would have been a wiser move.
This is absolutely sublime.
These pop girls coming out with all the good this past week.
Just noticed that this is available on Amazon UK, so if anyone is wanting to legally download the track, you can do so from there. I assume it's by mistake!
This is a great song and probably on the same level as IRLY. I think IRLY did well enough, especially for her. It's not like she's an established artist with a lot of hits under her belt and she hasn't had a big hit since Good Time which was three years ago. All that considered I think it has done pretty well for her. I do think this has a better shot in the US though. It's a little more mature and will probably connect with more people.
This song is so SPECIAL. I keep going back to it and everytime it offers something new. Had a real moment with it while walking and feeling slightly down (and tipsy) as it was and it just connects. Really hope the public take to it, because it should really go down as a 'Teenage Dream' style CLASSIC.
To be honest having lived with RAWM a couple of weeks I think I Rly Like You is the better song. But that's not to disparage the former at all. I'm not sure it's a hit though.
I think the best section of the album is LA Hallucinations (what a damn banger) through to Didn't Just Come Here to Dance. All amazing. Black Heart is like a flop single discovered on Scandipop circa 08. It's a bit Kylie X and a bit "mysterious" by that Swedish pop girl who was fabulous but swiftly forgotten.
She posted this last night on Facebook and Twitter:
Cannot wait!
Going to wait until I get a HQ audio before I rate this.
This song is utter pop perfection; it's like Charli got her hands on a Tove Lo/Taylor track, revamped it and gave it to Carly! Shellback and Mattman & Robin is the dream Swedish production combo and they've really delivered. I've been listening to the high quality version for around 3 weeks now and the chorus just EXPLODES every time; it's the first song in a while that I've gone "wow, this is incredible" from first listen to present time. I really hope it smashes here, it's too big of a pop song to *not* smash, the thought of hearing it on the radio excites me! 'Boy Problems' on E•MO•TION is also sublime!
This is out now in the UK on iTunes and Spotify.
To me this just says they're buggering up the campaign epically again.
I hope they change their minds on this quickly and do it properly!

r.i.p album campaign
Cute video but the song deserves so much better. With this and the quick iTunes release, it's like they're treating it as a promo single or something yet accidentally used her best ever track. :/
I love that video. Of course as a video it's nothing amazing but I like that it shows her personality more.
I swear she's the cutest, most adorable thing ever. 💓
She looks like a lesbian.
she looks like felicia tilman from desperate housewives
I found that incredibly adorable. I feel like the song is extremely personal to her which is probably why she went for a found-footage type affair? The globe-trotting makes sense with the "we could turn the world to gold" line and she looks absolutely sublime in all the settings. I don't know if it's the fact that the song is so special that i was loving the video so much. Regardless, it's not what i envisaged the video to be like, but it works quite perfectly.
That sort of veiled sadness behind the happy front that the song represents too. A little 'Amélie'-esque even down to her styling.
I can't get over how good this is
So I finally gave this a listen after it was uploaded officially, and omg it sounds great on the first listen! Hope this does very well
OMG it´s really good!!
Everythin second single This 80s Tinny Kiss wanted to be.
Love the video and song so much, the instrumental especially is perfect
I like the videoclip and the song is already one of my favourites this year! Carly Rae Jepsen is literally an oasis in the pop music industry.
This song has received a pretty much a universal rapturous reception from those that have heard it, if only it could find a way to reach the general public.
They've ballsed this up big time.
I am still holding out hope that it will be a huge success eventually. A song this good and universal just can't be ignored.
#1 video on The Box apparently. It's coming 😭😭😭
A song this huge and undeniable surely has to break out at some point?!
I'm just thinking of examples like Take Me To Church which took ages, this to do the same please
I don't think it's certain that radio will ignore it just because it's been released OA/OS, has it got an impact date yet? Maybe radio are just waiting for that as there's no logical reason why they should feel the need to snub a fantastic pop song coming from somebody who's just had a big top three hit.
Let's hope the least this can do is a 'Tonight (I'm Getting Over You)', with the potential for it to have a similar performance to 'One Last Time'... But I would obviously wish and hope for better! Such a brilliant song!
Why is it that I'm already starting to like this a bit less? I haven't even overplayed it yet.
It is regrowing on me again now, but I sort of feel like it's too instant. It hits you with everything it has on first listen and there's no growing room after that. That's a good thing when it's likely going to get mediocre airplay, but not for us who are more likely to constantly play it.
Why the US don't like her is mind boggling considering it's Scooter who manages her.
This song is good. It's not like the third coming like some are saying.
She's already amazing, but she just went up even further in my estimations. - https://instagram.com/p/5ftp_3pMN8/
Also this is now #99 on iTunes, she was on Radio 1 this morning.
Can't get enough of this at the moment. Loved it when the album was out and love it even more now we've got the video. SO CUTE.
How do you say KILLER? Hitting all the right notes with this era <3
Certainly could be another big hit for her once R1 start fully supporting it
Its fabulous tbh. Take back my third coming comment.
A little birdy has told me this has just been added to the Capital Playlist
SOOOOO happy this isn't shaping up to massively underperform after all, loving it as much ever right now
Not sure how well this song will perform in the UK as second single. It could struggle as not commercially as strong.
The release date (or impact date) for this is September 11th according to an interview on Lorraine with Carly this morning!
Very pleased that this has been playlisted on radio 1. The fact that it's only just outside the top 100 on iTunes with little support is promising that by the time it's on the B list it should start steadily climbing. I hope she gets A listed this time, as IRLY didn't.
And then I feel if this is actually a hit the album could do quite well off the back of it given that it'll housing two very different hits.
I'm a bit more confident now than I was, Kiss have playlisted it too. Hopefully Capital properly get on board and this can blossom into a proper hit.
I still wish they hadn't done OA/OS with this though, it has to now clamber its way up and may not manage it whereas it probably would have been a more certain hit otherwise.
Well OA/OS needs to happen more.
She's going to be on Chatty Man! The song of the year has time to smash yet, get that promo 😭😭
This is setting up to do quite nicely. Alan Carr and Live Lounge the same week. Let's hope Radio 1 A-list it later. It's getting a big boost every time they play it, but it's not being played quite enough to stay stable at the moment. #69 currently.
I'm not expecting A-list this week, but hopefully next! Songs usually go C-B-B-A, don't they? So I don't think we'll see her move up this week.
I've been listening to this non-stop lately. Absolutely incredible.
Carly just performed a nice slick stripped down version of 'Run Away With Me' and is going to be doing a cover of 'king' which will be uploaded later!
Which was SENSATIONAL
'King'! Ahhhhhhhh!
Top 40 might be difficult with streaming but I need this to at least peak higher than #68!
I have hope. Album is out tomorrow, and iTunes advertisement will encourage extra cherry picks, then she has Alan Carr for a mini-boost and then A-list radio 1 support from Monday.
'King' is HD, 'Run Away With Me' not yet.
I enjoyed the Alan Carr performance. It seems to have given her a good boost now and quite a stable one. Hopefully it'll continue to rise during the week and sneak into the top 40 by Friday
I enjoyed her on Alan Carr. Hopefully the album can be a success and the single can get some more traction.

Carly busking/performing RAWM
Carly in Germany, having a chat with the one and only LENA!
So it seems that 'Run Away With Me' is getting re-released.
Carly's performing the song on Ellen on Friday as well the song reaching a new peak of #126 on US Spotify.
^^
ORLLY?! I didn't know
I can't see them re-releasing it in the UK, maybe if it blows up in this US significantly they might try with it again (that would be wonderful!)
Most of all, if the album can just pick up some more sales regardless I'd be most pleased.
Did it get A-List on Radio 1?!
high profile feature plsssss
'Run Away With Me' has become a success... as a meme on Vine! You can see some of the best Vines here: http://www.buzzfeed.com/matwhitehead/run-away-with-meme#.qjN3Z8o4mk (This one is my favourite: https://vine.co/v/eIDV0FtJg6g )
Kind of strange how it's blown up in this form, but pretty amazing. Run Away With Meme. *.*
Some of the vines are hilarious but...I hope it doesn't catch on and become like, a "Call Me Maybe" thing. Like, it probably won't, but I'm just wary because Carly's already experienced having a song be turned into a meme then tossed aside by the public, and she doesn't need it to happen to a song as glorious as this. I mean so far the vines are being made and shared by internet pop stans so I can laugh now because it's pretty much just a fun inside joke for everyone who loved the album (and for those who didn't I guess) but God imagine if it caught on with the larger public and all the people buying the song as a joke*.
*Scenario unlikely to happen so I'm needlessly fretting here but the fact that Buzzfeed has declared it a Thing makes me fret 'cause I'm a nervous wreck
It's currently #1101 on USA iTunes and it's #680 on UK iTunes
These memes are killing me y'all That one with the kid and the spinny thing is indeed glorious!
https://vine.co/v/ipr6UI3Q6Ix This one is killing me
I'm hoping people see them, and see what a damn good song it is, unlikely, but whatever
GENIUS
need to watch these Run Away With Memes asap
I feel like labels should use meme's for promo tbh.
https://vine.co/v/ipZhYh3uJn1
The only vine you need.
these are incredible
Some of these really work and others fall flat. The Rihanna one is one of my faves
But the one with https://vine.co/v/ivPE1lpT5X5 clearly reigns supreme. You tell them Adele *.*
That Adele one cracks me up!
I'm surprised no one's made a Tarzan one yet! That intro has always reminded me of the Tarzan yell.
I don't get it.
I'm sorry but these Run Away With Meme's are hilarious. If they help to get everyone awaree of Run Away With Me and make it the smash it needs to be then I am most definitely all for it.
This meme is my fave <3
https://vine.co/v/iJI2duhiBjD
https://vine.co/v/iDh1eaAaumY
We have a winner!
This one trumps all
http://reallynotgood.tumblr.com/post/141279604298
DYING!!! The Adele one is hilarious, and obvs love the Katya one
I hadn't seen the harry potter one or the car one yet! lmao
I don't get what's funny about a lot of these, how is it an amazing hilarious meme to just play the "baby take me to this feeling" line whenever anything at all happens on a vine?? The ones with the opening riff are sometimes amusing enough though.
The Dolly Parton one >>>>>
https://vine.co/v/i6qAd3igz2E
I'm done.
Yep. Best one yet!
Yeah, there are some good ones in here.
https://vine.co/v/iDa9gbePglv
Another one https://vine.co/v/i6YLgHmHgAX
Spadz to host the run away with meme rate?
https://twitter.com/cgbposts/status/714593981708034053 This one just killed me
Oh God, this has made its way to tumblr.
I've got to hand it to them though, they're usually a year late with these sort of internet fads.
https://twitter.com/CGBPosts/status/715267308650946560/video/1
You doi realise these 'memes' have like 200 views only etc?
As only the fans of this um crap song are doing and watching these memes?
I really shouldn't laugh at the driving one but it's so hilarious
Michael moat of the ones I have watched have over 100,000 loops
https://vine.co/v/ijB5ZwYE5Wa
as guilty as I am of perpetuating this meme on tumblr, it's definitely ruined the song for me a bit :,(
https://vine.co/v/ip5z5dbBXlL
This one is also so wrong. But I can't help but love it.
I still don't really get it but, I must admit, the really inappropriate ones are really making me laugh. :')
https://vine.co/v/ijvTBz6Hb9t
Yet again (like the song itself)... the whole Run Away With Meme campaign her label set up has made zero effect on the song itself.
http://whalewatching.tumblr.com/post/141802509912/runawaywithmeme-carlyraejepsen-runawaywithme
honestly i cant deal w this any more
These are actually putting me off the song now. 90% of them aren't funny at all and I do not get it
Just a desperate and unfunny campaign from the record label.
Nothin to see hurr!
^^ Srs question... do you like ANYTHING?
The vines have done the opposite and got me obsessing over it all over again tbh. It's phenomenal and makes me so sad that it flopped!
https://vine.co/v/ijelQgVKZIA
My favourite is still the one that Jay pointed out though.
me when lush life comes on
The TAYLOR ONE!!!
https://mobile.twitter.com/LewisCorner/status/714937281874956290/video/1
pull the plug im D O N E
Wow.
A new Remixes EP has been released!

SO IDK HOW I JUST HEARD THIS LIKE A WEEK AGO. Well actually it is thanks to vine.
IT IS MAGICAL. By far the best thing she's done. 11/10.
