Background

Talking about the song, Celeste said, "'Little Runaway' is a song about losing your faith, even if just momentarily, and seeking answers from spirits and ghosts as nothing seems to make sense on this planet. My favourite line in the song is 'good news I could use some' – I believe everyone has a guardian angel, a protector, and this is me talking to mine. The verses actually started as this saxophone sample we were playing around with and eventually it transformed into the melody. I always play the sax back in my head even though it's not in the song."[4]

Music video

A music video to accompany the release of "Little Runaway" was first released onto YouTube on 25 August 2020.[5] The video was directed by Sophie Jones and shows the singer's image being presented through a series of kaleidoscopic gazes.[4]
