Leave Right Now? Gee talk about behind.

Because its being used as the "leaving" song on American Idol

[Stewie]

I know but as far as I'm aware AI has been on air longer than this year

[ManicKangaroo]

Indeed, but I think they've always used US singers/bands before

UB40's Red Red Wine was a hit there 5 years after it was here. This is 7 years on though.

In the early 1980s it was typical for a single to be a hit in the UK first because the record company would often "try it out" here first where promotional costs were less to see if it was a hit before promoting it in the USA.
