About Gone Up in Flames

"Gone Up in Flames" is the debut single by English rock band Morning Runner, from their debut studio album, Wilderness Is Paradise Now. The song was first released on 1 August 2005 and reached number 39 in the UK Singles Chart. The song contains three narratives: a racetrack loser, a devastated mourner, and a possessive consumer. Lead singer Matthew Greener explained, "They are all pictures of desperation. I got told this story about a woman so obsessed with this pearl that she sold all her possessions just to own it. "The song also features on the soundtrack of the video game FIFA 07, and an instrumental version is the main theme tune to the BAFTA Award-winning sitcom The Inbetweeners.
