Karen O's haunting voice is a wonderful companion for a night like this, cold and silent. "Runaway" is a song that pierces time like a bullet, allows a poignant feeling to go right through your chest and attach to your mind like one of its most important memories.
I think the incredible sensitivity that this band exudes was overlooked by many throughout the years, especially the way they managed to make so many different types of songs with so many different moods without ever failing to put their characteristic style in them.
You can feel the weight of time in this song, it's cinematic. Listen to time's distortion in the first part and how it gets shattered by the second verse, there's a unique beauty in that lone piano trying to give you a melodic character and Karen's voice just interacting with it.
I hope you enjoy the company of this beauty and let it comfort your night.

When you listen to music like this one you also remember what it is to be connected to nature, you remember part of the sound of nature in that organic sound, the wood just resonating to the sound of strings being touched, you remember the essential and feel ready to transport yourself again to the best parts of life.
