背景與發行

[编辑]

After Paramore released their critically acclaimed fifth studio album After Laughter in 2017[1] and cut their fourth world tour英语After Laughter Tour short, the band took its first hiatus since its formation in 2004. During that hiatus, the band's members focused on their mental health and pursued individual projects.[2] In May 2020, the band's lead singer Hayley Williams stated that their sixth album would be guitar-driven,[3] and in January 2022, she confirmed that the band had begun recording their sixth studio album in late 2021.[4]

In the background, drummer Zac Farro sits in front of a yellow-tinged drum kit with his drumsticks in the air. Hayley Williams, a white woman with red, pulled-back hair, wearing a silver dress, sings into the microphone. To her right, guitarist Taylor York faces her and plays the guitar.

In September 2022, Paramore announced its sixth studio album This Is Why. The album's lead single "This Is Why英语This Is Why (song)" was released on September 28, 2022. The band also revealed plans for a tour to promote the album英语This Is Why Tour that would start in October 2022.[5][6] The album's second single "The News英语The News (song)" was released on December 8, 2022,[7] and its third single "C'est Comme Ça" was released on January 12, 2023.[8]

The band premiered "Running Out of Time" at the Grand Ole Opry英语Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tennessee, on February 7.[9] When introducing the song, Williams remarked: "This is a song about how I'm late to everything ... It's really not that deep unless you want to think about the planet dying. Then it can be that deep."[9] This Is Why was released on February 10, 2023.[10] In the lead-up to the album's release, the band distributed flexi disc英语flexi disc singles of "Running Out of Time" at live release parties.[11] The band also performed the song on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on February 14.[12] The release of the music video followed on February 16.[13]

Atlantic Records released "Running Out of Time" as an alternative radio single on May 23, 2023.[14] The song was written by Williams, along with Paramore's guitarist Taylor York英语Taylor York, and drummer Zac Farro英语Zac Farro. Carlos de la Garza英语Carlos de la Garza (music producer) recorded and produced the song in Los Angeles.[15][16] According to Williams, the song was written in the early stages of the album's production; she first conceived the chorus and then wrote the lyrics.[17] Williams said that she "wanted to challenge [herself] to write about ordinary things".[18] She mentioned that focusing on everyday topics prevented her from "getting all deep and dark", but emphasized that exploring those emotions parallels the anxieties many feel about life in 2023 on planet Earth.[18] On October 6, 2023, Paramore released a remix album of This Is Why containing a remix of "Running Out of Time" by Panda Bear英语Panda Bear (musician).[19][20]

詞曲與主題

[编辑]

The Alternative and Stereogum have described "Running Out of Time" as a pop-rock and dance-rock英语dance-rock song.[20][21] The song opens on the off beat with a bluesy guitar riff, resolving to F-sharp major for the verse. The verse, with a syncopated beat, has Williams singing over chromatic mediant英语chromatic mediant and stable tonic chords, and features sixth chord英语sixth chords. In the pre-chorus, the chords remain the same as those in the verse but with a less-syncopated rhythm. In the bridge, the guitar takes on a groovy tone, over which Williams sings several blue note英语blue notes.[21]

The main lyrical themes of "Running Out of Time" are time management, anxiety, and the making of excuses.[13] Throughout the song, Williams repeatedly sings the line "I ran out of time" as an excuse for failing to perform several personal tasks, such as walking her dog, taking flowers to her neighbor, and sending condolences.[18] Writing for Rolling Stone, Larisha Paul said that the song's "arsenal of excuses" create "metaphorical fires and hyperbolic deadlines".[12] In The Line of Best Fit英语The Line of Best Fit, Steven Loftin said that the song uses the excuse of "ditching out on plans under the guise of existential dread" as an example of the anxieties of the 2020s.[22] In Sputnik Music, Sowing noted that the lyrics, with lines like "Intentions only get you so far, a harsh reality to discover", address the feeling of being overwhelmed by the desire to improve oneself.[23] In a review for Stereogum, Vivek Maddala analyzed the song's structure and composition, concluding that they reflect the song's themes; for example, starting the guitar riff on the off beat creates a sense of rushing, resonating with the central theme of running out of time.[21]

Other critics have stated that "Running Out of Time" addresses social anxieties related to aging, death, and interacting with other people. Alexis Petridis英语Alexis Petridis wrote in The Guardian that the song captures the fear of growing up and apprehension of our own death.[24] Writing for The New Yorker, Carrie Battan said that the song addresses contemporary anxieties among millennials, such as becoming antisocial and growing older, and is illustrative of a broader cultural turn to nostalgia英语Nostalgia consumption.[25] Mary Sikory, in Consequence, linked the song's theme of running out of time to music's nostalgic return to genres that were popular in the early 2000s, like pop-punk and emo.[16]

Williams has said that "Running Out of Time" is about her being "horrific at time management",[18] and is also a reflection on her intentions and character.[16][17] In an interview with Zane Lowe英语Zane Lowe for Apple Music 1, Williams said that the song was also influenced by her friendship with Taylor Swift. According to Williams, Swift showed her a closet full of items to give people as gifts, which made her realize "my life is so not together" and "I can barely remember to send someone a card or flowers".[26]

樂評與商業表現

[编辑]

"Running Out of Time" received positive critical reviews for its tone. Bobby Olivier in Spin praised the song's theme and lyrics, calling the track "playful" and "an anthem for enemies of punctuality". He described it as "a sequel to Afroman英语Afroman's 'Because I Got High英语Because I Got High'".[27] Writing for NPR Music英语NPR Music, Clarissa Brooks rated the track among the best of the album and said that it explores the post-COVID-19 pandemic cultural milieu英语COVID-19 pandemic in popular culture in a "refreshing kind of snark[y]" tone.[28] Phoebe Flys in Classic Rock英语Classic Rock (magazine) called the song a "siren call to the tardy" that is underpinned by exasperation.[29] The Alternative called the song "a well-performed, well-produced piece of nothing".[20]

Other critics praised "Running Out of Time" for its musical composition, particularly its balance of disparate elements. Helen Brown in The Independent said: "Williams' shrieks of 'Be there in five!' are prettily balanced by sweetly crooned backing vocals".[30] No Ripcord called the song "sprightly", favorably comparing its "jump[y]", "choppy verses and svelte hooks" to the "shoehorned" sound of the "disaffected sing-speak" and "childish chorus" on "C'est Comme Ça".[31] Clash英语Clash (magazine) also compared the track with "C'est Comme Ça", contrasting Williams' "wonderfully conspicuous staccato vocals" on the latter with "guitarist Taylor York's glitchy anacrusis英语anacrusis" on the former.[32] In Paste英语Paste (magazine), Grant Sharples said that the track "strikes a balance between atmospheric textures and syncopated buoyancy that is, simply put, really fucking fun".[33] Billboard ranked "Running Out of Time" the third-best track on the album, and stated that it is "accessible" and a "standout".[34] Mary Sikory of Consequence rated it an "essential track".[16]

In 2023, "Running Out of Time" peaked at number 18 on the New Zealand Hot Singles chart,[35] 74 on the UK Singles Chart,[36] and 18 and 32 on the Billboard Hot Rock & Alternative Songs英语Hot Rock & Alternative Songs and Rock Airplay charts in the United States, respectively.[37][38] The song ranked 43rd on Billboard's 2023 year-end Alternative Airplay chart.[39]

The music video for "Running Out of Time", directed by Ivanna Borin, was released on February 16, 2023.[18][13] It depicts Williams being pulled from a recording studio into an Alice in Wonderland-themed world, where the instruments have come to life and begun to approach her.[40][41][42] After entering the dream world through a guitar case, Williams, along with York and Farro, navigate through a colorful and distorted landscape that reflects the anxieties of the song's lyrics.[40] The band members, whose limbs have grown several feet in length, work through unusual situations and then run on a track in outer space back to the studio.[43] Adrian Garro, writing for Rock Cellar Magazine, compared the music video to 1990s videos by Nirvana and the Smashing Pumpkins.[44] The video was shortlisted in the best international rock video category at the 2023 UK Music Video Awards英语2023 UK Music Video Awards.[45]

In the music video, Williams wears several outfits by the British designer Vivienne Westwood, including a corset from Westwood's 1990 Portrait collection and a golden dress from her Spring/Summer 2016 collection. Lindsey Hartman, the band's stylist, said that Westwood was her and Williams' "ultimate hero" and that they decided to commemorate her when they filmed the music video in 2022, shortly after her death. Williams also wears a red Rodarte英语Rodarte dress while running on the track at the end of the music video;[46] Williams has since worn Rodarte on the This Is Why Tour英语This Is Why Tour.[47]
