Walk Away

Walk Away is the second single off the self-titled debut by The New Romantic Devils. They Recorded two versions of the song. The original version was much more up tempo. They changed tempo and some lyrics, and the song evolved into a ballad. ￼
Recording and writing
The song was written by Hudson/Monroe. The lyrics were added by Holly Ridge. The original song written in July of 2003 had more of an upbeat psychedelic feel to it on its original conception. Holly wasn't happy with her original lyrics and the song was put to the side during the recording of the album. It was brought back at the end of the sessions in September 2003 and the decision was made by Archie and Holly to attempt it as a ballad. The idea came about after they had an argument. They were in a relationship at the time and the song took on her words to him if they decided to end and walk away.
