If You Leave
"If You Leave" is a 1986 song by the British synthpop group Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD). It was recorded for the soundtrack to the film ''Pretty in Pink'' (1986) where it was played prominently during the final scene.
It is the band's highest-charting single in the United States, where it reached number 4 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart in May 1986. The song became an international hit, also reaching the Top 5 in Canada and New Zealand, and charting at number 15 in Australia. It failed to crack the Top 40 of the UK Singles Chart, peaking at number 48, but eventually gained popularity in the band's home country due to its inclusion on the multi-platinum selling ''The Best of OMD'' (1988) and the growing cult status of ''Pretty in Pink''.〔Beale (2005)〕
==Composition==
The band wrote "If You Leave" after John Hughes decided to change the ending to ''Pretty in Pink'' after poor test audience reactions. Hughes had asked the band for a song for the new ending two days before they were due to begin a tour, and "If You Leave" was written and recorded in under 24 hours as a result.〔 The original ending featured another OMD song, "Goddess of Love", which was released on ''The Pacific Age'' later in 1986.〔
