Interesting facts and trivia about Run On. By Songfacts®.

This was released as the second single from Play. Like its predecessor, "Honey," it made an impression on the UK charts. Aside from peaking at #33 on the Singles chart, it went to #27 Dance and #7 Indie.

The song samples a 1943 recording of the traditional folk song "God's Gonna Cut You Down" by Bill Landford and the Landfordaires.

Moby told Rolling Stone that this "was one of the first songs written and it was really hard to put together, because it has so many samples in it. I didn't use computers at this point, it was all done with stand-alone samplers. When it was finished, I collapsed in exhaustion."
