"Love Runs Out" by OneRepublic on YouTube

"Love Runs Out" is a song recorded by American pop rock band OneRepublic for the 2014 reissue of their third studio album Native (2013). The song was produced by frontman Ryan Tedder, who co-wrote it with bandmates Brent Kutzle, Drew Brown, Zach Filkins, and Eddie Fisher. "Love Runs Out" was digitally released in Australia on April 14, 2014, and was serviced to contemporary hit radio in the United States on May 6 as the fourth overall single from the album.

Background and composition

"Love Runs Out" was originally intended to be the first single from Native, but was eventually passed over in favour of "If I Lose Myself". Tedder told Capital FM, "We have a new single that's not even on the album that's about to drop. I can't quote the date," and "I wanted ["Love Runs Out"] to be the first single, a few of us in the band did, but I could not finish the chorus. And you can't have a song without a chorus." [3]

Sheet music for "Love Runs Out" shows the key of G minor with a moderate tempo of 120 beats per minute. The vocals span from D3 to D5 in the song. [4]

Critical reception

4Music called "Love Runs Out" a "spine-tingling track" with "slick production" [5] and a "stomper". [6]

Commercial performance

"Love Runs Out" debuted at number 81 on the Billboard Hot 100 and at number 22 on the New Zealand Singles Chart. The song eventually reached a peak of number 15 on the Hot 100. It reached its million sales mark in the US in August 2014 [7] and by the end of 2014 had sold 1.4 million copies. [8]

The song charted even higher in other countries. It reached the top 5 in Austria, Luxembourg, Canada, Germany and the UK, as well as the top 10 in Spain and South Africa. Its success in Germany was also down to the fact that the TV station ZDF had selected it as its official anthem for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. [9] [10]

Music video

A music video was produced for the song and was directed by Sophie Muller. It cost the group $180,000. The video has references to Sade's video "Soldier of Love", also under Muller's direction. [11] As of February 2025, it has over 190 million views on YouTube and is OneRepublic's sixth most viewed music video.

In other media

"Love Runs Out" is one of the official theme songs for WWE's WrestleMania 35 event in 2019. It was also included in the video game, NBA 2K15, curated by Pharrell Williams. [12]
