The Choirboys' "Run to Paradise" climbed to No. 3 on Australia's Kent Music Report singles chart in December 1987, and Big Bad Noise, the album it belongs to, reached No. 5 and finished as the 21st best-selling album of 1988 in Australia. Singer Mark Gable wrote it with fellow guitarist Brad Carr, and Ian Hulme on bass and Lindsay Tebbutt on drums keep the hard rock engine revving underneath.
It crossed the Tasman to No. 13 on New Zealand's RIANZ chart, and when it was released in the United States in 1989 it made both the Billboard Hot 100 and the Mainstream Rock chart. The song came around again in 2004, reworked for a release credited to Nick Skitz vs. Choirboys, and that version reached No. 16 on the ARIA Singles Chart.
