I was dreaming about this song about this time last year. I knew what I wanted to achieve and as I usually do, after putting together a very raw demo I could listen on my phone if needed, I put my subconscious mind at work for some weeks. By the end of August I recorded this first demo, undeniably influenced by some 80s production techniques and at heart very close to the end result.

It took me several months to polish and finish the arrangement you can hear now on "All Systems Go" (the album), there are even some minor changes on the lyrics and performing style, but I'm happy you can hear now this draft. Enjoy!

Running in the night is one of my favorites on the album. So awesome to hear this demo of it and the story behind it. Thank you for sharing this! Hugz🙂

Dear Ben....MoonBEAR and I appreciate you once again sharing your creative journey for when you imagine and then finally produce a great song. It is wonderful hearing about your journey of exploring diverse musical elements and composition. Did or did we not hear in your chorus for this song a slight similar sounding recognizable popular 80's chorus sung by 'Queen - Radio Gaga'??

It was an inspiration, indeed, but I don't think I used any of their notes on it, maybe I'm wrong because you're not the first to tell me this, one of this days I'll sit in front of the piano and check both :) Another inspiration was "Same Old Scene" by Roxy Music.

Es una de mis más escuchadas canciones del álbum, me parece tan espectacular la mezcla de sonidos y voz !!! Siempre consigues sacarle lo mejor a cada inspiración y darle la vuelta para llevarla a tu terreno. Brindo por tu salud mental y física, porque todo lo que haces me parece tan único y especial como tú.

Muchas gracias querido Antonio. Con respecto a esta canción, creo que todavía no esta todo dicho con ella. Tenia una idea para un video que se tuvo que suspender por la pandemia, pero ya estoy con planes de recuperarla. :)
