Topping the UK charts in June 2013, this song by Naughty Boy is about running away from one’s problems. It features then up-and-coming artist Sam Smith, and was produced by Naughty Boy and Komi.

Although the rhythm and beat of the song are light and catchy, the underlying meaning is disturbing: that of emotional abuse.

The video is even more disturbing, a story that may remind many readers of the Wizard of Oz but is, in fact, based on an old Bolivian legend about an abused deaf boy who learns he can chase away demons by screaming. The boy escapes, taking with him mismatched friends and a beautiful dog.

A light, lively production is contrasted with a deep and complex and uneasy tale.

The song became popular on the social video sharing platform TikTok in mid-June 2020.
