"There Goes the Fear" is the first single from Doves' second studio album The Last Broadcast. The single was released on April 15, 2002 in the UK on CD and 10" vinyl. Both formats were released and deleted on the same day. A single was also released for the song in Holland and in Australia. The B-side, "Hit The Ground Running", is an adaptation of "Werewolves of London" written by Warren Zevon, LeRoy Marinell, and Robert "Waddy" Wachtel. The music video was directed by Julian House and Julian Gibbs at Intro. The main riff has similarities to that of 'No Surprises' by Radiohead, as it is played by guitar and glockenspiel, and the chord progression is similar albeit in a different key. However the rest of the song differs greatly from 'No Surprises'.
