Kids From Fame Media: Song of the Month

"Outrun The Night" is one of those rare songs that was performed in 2 different episodes. Well actually it appears in 3 episodes as the first performance was repeated.

We first see it in the Season 4 episodes "Blizzard" which is repeated later that season in "School Is Out". Then it's second performance comes from the season 5 episode "Savage Streets".

The song is written by Rick Kelly and performed by Nia Peeples.

Nia performed the song live at the 2015 and 2017 Italian Reunions and in2019 at the Fame U.K. Reunion. When she first sang it in 2015 she mentioned that the band's musical director had been asking her to sing it for years but she finds it a hard song to sing.

Never included on one of the original Fame albums the 2019 Live Version appears on the Live In Liverpool CD.

A Japanese language cover version was recorded by Minako with the Wildcats in 1989.
