Runnin’ Away - Yael Lanciano (Pop) Yael Lanciano delivers a lush pop production with the synth soaked single “Runnin’ Away”. It’s a universal subject matter, Yael asking why her love interest is scared of diving into the real thing. Listening to this track, which is boasting with ear candy, reminded us a lot of Carly Rae Jepsen. The track screams summer, with a perfect pop vocal from Yael that shimmers on top of the splashy synths and punchy percussion. What really makes this track standout, however, are the constant switchups that keep engagement high as the song breezes by to its conclusion. From the slow down of the bridge, to the breakbeat of the last pre-chorus, the song’s complexity really had us in our feels.

Best Lyric: “Want you to tell me what’s on your mind all the time, but you keepin’ me at a distance.“
