Nah, I had a cameo back on page one, but this is the first time I've gotten to one of them before someone else did in like five pages!
I went sort of Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon on mine (above) as it has a connection to your last challenge.

I'll guess "Running on Empty" but I don't think that's it.

Warmer.
Less is more.
Hmmm...less, eh? "The Runner" by King of Leon?

"Runner" by either Manfred Mann's Earth Band or The City Drive?

Yup, and the lead singer was the connection to the previous challenge, since he was the lead singer there, too.
Your turn, He Who Wanders.

I don't believe that's correct. According to the link, the lead singer of "Build Me Up, Buttercup" was Mike d'Abo, who indeed went on to join Manfred Mann in the late '60s. But d'Abo had departed long before "Runner." The lead singer of Manfred Mann's Earth Band of that era was Chris Thompson.
In any case, here's the next song:
"This one possesses the competence of interpreting information received from visible light at distances greater than 1,609.344 meters."
