Walk Away
Walk Away is a pop-dance and freestyle song co-written by Alanis Morissette, Leslie Howe, Louise Reny and Frank Levin, and produced by Howe for Morissette's debut album, Alanis (1991). Its protagonist sends a warning to her boyfriend who "never think[s] twice before [he] break all the rules", telling him "I'll walk away and say good bye if you don't want me anymore ... if I don't get the love we had before". It was released to radio and television as the album's second single in 1991 (see 1991 in music), but it was not given a commercial release. The promotional single for the song includes a radio edit only. The song charted at number 35 in Canada. It was also featured in the film Problem Child 2. "Walk Away" was one of the demo recordings Leslie Howe and Morissette created with keyboardist Serge Côté in the studio, after Howe and her entertainment manager Stephan Klovan had decided to try to secure a record contract for her.

"Walk Away" is a song by American singer and songwriter Kelly Clarkson, taken from her second studio album, Breakaway. It was written by Clarkson, Kara DioGuardi, Raine Maida and Chantal Kreviazuk and produced by the latter three. The song talks about a relationship that is not working out and she wants a lover who will support her, not disappear when she needs him the most. It is a prominent pop rock song. It was released as the album's fifth and final single. The song received generally positive reviews from most music critics, who praised the song for being "an anthemic and classic pop-rock song" and commended Clarkson's attitude on the song. In March 2006, the single was certified gold by RIAA and has sold over 500,000 copies in all formats in the United States. As of February 2010, "Walk Away" has sold over 1.1 million digital copies in the U.S. A music video for the song was directed by Joseph Kahn, while Kelly wrote the treatment for the video. It was described as a fun video and it features many people singing the song in many places, while the video also shows Clarkson performing with her band. Clarkson performed the song on the Breakaway World Tour, My December Tour, 2 Worlds 2 Voices Tour, All I Ever Wanted Tour and in a medley on her most recent tour, the Stronger Tour.
