Galantis‘ “Runaway (U & I)” has finally landed in Billboard’s top 10 Dance/Electronic chart forty weeks after its premiere. The track was first released October 25, 2014, and has been a fixture at both mainstage festival sets and club dancefloors since. Nielsen Music reports that the track has sold 14,000 downloads. “Runaway” now holds the record of longest climb to a top 10 position on the chart since Billboard’s Dance/Electronic chart was created in January 2013. The previous title-holder was Disclosure‘s “Latch” feat. Sam Smith, which joined the top ten after 33 weeks.
