Getaway is the first single from Scottish band Texas's 2005 album Red Book and was released prior to the album. The song was successful, peaking at number six on the UK Singles Chart, becoming the band's twelfth top 10 single since their number-eight hit "I Don't Want a Lover" in 1989. The song also debuted number six in Denmark, but fell off the chart the next week. In the rest of Europe, the song was a minor hit.

A free limited edition slip-case was made available by mail to house all three formats.
