"Who Will You Run To" is one of a long list of hit songs written by Warren.[2] Heart's version of her song became the band's eighth U.S. top-ten single, peaking at number seven.[3] It also climbed to number thirty in the UK Singles Chart, where it was also available as a 12" single. An extended rock version of the song was Heart's first UK CD single release.[4]
