On the Run (Chinese: 我很忙; pinyin: Wǒ Hěn Máng; literally: "I'm Very Busy") is Taiwanese Mandopop artist Jay Chou's eighth Mandarin studio album. It was released on 1 November 2007 by JVR Music, but was leaked onto the internet on 31 October 2007. This is the first album that Chou released under his own record company, JVR Music and distributed by Sony Music Taiwan.

The album was promoted via Onda Media Players, in which part of his album cover was printed on the front, his signature on the Media Player itself, and in certain cases, a small selection of his songs and music videos are included on the media player.

"牛仔很忙" (Cowboy On The Run), "彩虹" (Rainbow), and "無雙" (Unparalleled) were three lead tracks released for airplay on Taiwan's Hit FM.

"牛仔很忙" (Cowboy On The Run) is a country track, as Chou stated that he wanted to try something new. The literal translation is Cowboy is Busy. This track also illustrates the theme for the album cover and it reflects some things in Chou's real life. Also, one particular phrase in the chorus is inspired by Gwei Lun-mei, who starred opposite Chou in the movie, Secret.

Several tracks used the melodies of instrumental tracks from the Secret Original Soundtrack: "First Kiss" for "彩虹" (Rainbow) and "蒲公英的約定" (Dandelion's Promise) used the melodies of "小雨寫立可白Ⅰ" (Xiaoyu's Theme I) and "路小雨" (Lu Xiaoyu). The track "無雙" (Unparalleled) is the theme song for video game Dynasty Warriors Online in Taiwan.

The music video for "我不配" (I'm Not Worthy) features Taiwanese actress Alice Tzeng, who co-starred with Chou in Secret. "青花瓷" (Blue and White Porcelain) refers to antique Chinese porcelain. Its literal translation is Blue Flower Pot. The music video features Taiwanese actor Baron Chen, who co-starred with Chou in Kung Fu Dunk.
