If you leave - Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark

'If you leave' was recorded in 1986 by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark for the soundtrack of the movie 'Pretty in pink'. The song was featured prominently during the final scene of the movie.

Subsequently, the single became the group's biggest hit in the USA, reaching number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. However, the song was virtually ignored in the UK, where it only reached number 48 on the UK singles chart.

My collection: 7" single no. 4253
Found: Record fair, Utrecht, November 21, 2009
Cost: 0,5 euro
Tracks: 'If you leave' / '88 seconds in Greensboro'
