"Up'N Away" is a song by German Eurodance group Mr. President, released in April 1994 by Warner Bros. as the second single from their debut album, Up'n Away - The Album (1995). It was co-written by Kai Matthiesen and produced by him with Rainer Gaffrey, and was the first song ever that received a golden record without charting in the German top ten. This was also the last single to receive participation from rapper George "Sir Prophet" Jones, as Delroy "Layzee Dee" Rennalls replaced him soon after the release. To avoid confusion after Jones left the group, the song was rerecorded for their debut album, with Rennalls providing the lead vocals as he did for the rest of the album's songs.

In 2000, the song was again remixed and released under the title "Up'N Away 2K" featuring the vocals of Delroy Rennalls, but the remix failed to chart. In 2014, the song was sampled by German dance act ItaloBrothers on the song "Up 'N Away".
