"Run On" comes from Play, Moby's fifth album, released on 17 May 1999 through Mute, with V2 handling North America. He cut the record at his home studio in Manhattan, and on this track he's credited as producer, engineer and mixer, with the songwriting shared between Moby and a traditional source.
Play was his route back to electronica after the detour of Animal Rights, blending downtempo with samples of blues and roots music, and he originally meant it as his final record. It sold sluggishly at first, then took off months later, went platinum in more than 20 countries and put Moby in front of a worldwide mainstream audience, helped along by an unprecedented stream of its songs licensed to films, TV shows and commercials.
