"On My Knees" is a song by Australian alternative dance group Rüfüs Du Sol, released on 24 September 2021 as the third single from their fourth studio album, Surrender. In a statement James Hunt said "For this song we had a lot of fun writing something that was darker, driving and a little more edgy. It's definitely one of the most banging tracks on the record - we referenced some of our favorite club music for the drum programming and had fun envisioning the time when we could finally play this live. It had an amazing reaction at our Red Rocks shows last month which was really special for us." The song debuted a number 68 on the ARIA Charts. At the 2022 ARIA Music Awards, the song as nominated for Best Pop Release, and Song of the Year. At the APRA Music Awards of 2023, the song was nominated for Most Performed Australian Work of the Year and won Most Performed Dance/ Electronic Work of the Year. Critical reception
