Hi suggy. I have just pm'd you on DS.

I am not expecting big things from his performance but it would be brilliant if he gained enough fans to do small tours..it won't do anything like Bad day that was already a massive airplay and chart hit before he even sang on the final .

 

he was at #55 on the charts 2 weeks before it was even used as the exit song.

and at #2 two months before he performed on AI.

Forgot to say LRN has been added to 2 new stations Richmond and Kansas city.

 

It is probably getting more plays than that chart reports because i noticed a few weeks ago that a couple of stations had disappeared from the list, so at first i thought they were no longer playing it. but i remembered the name of one of them and went to check the radio's website and he is still getting played ....last week he was played 7 times [and was their joint 5th most played track that week]

That's what I'm hoping too. It's more difficult for Will being totally unknown in the states. It seems the other exit songs chosen have been by American, Canadians & x AI contestants.

Great to hear LRN is being played more than we thought. Hope his appearance generates more spins.

Thanks Sunday :yahoo: We couldn't have asked for more.

 

Last night Will showed again what a class act he is. :wub: Hope more radio stations get on board now & there are plenty of appearances & performances lined up.

The rest of the evening unfolded pretty much as you saw it: Crystal went up to the mountain, and gave practically everyone chills in the process. After her love-fest with Simon,the PAs set up Will Young’s mic stand during the recap montage. The first Pop Idol winner was obscured in darkness at the time, and there were whispers in the audience that he looked kinda like George Michael, even though Mr. Michael hasn’t looked that fit since the Reagan Administration. Debbie pulled the bottom 10 up from their seats to stand with Lee and Crystal, and everyone hugged everyone. Ryan put the results in America’s hands, the 19 Entertainment logo chirped, and Randy Jackson walked over to Simon Cowell and gave him the warmest bro hug I’ve ever seen between the two by a country mile.

 

 

:lol:

On the finale of the American Idol Season 9, the famous singer Will Young also appeared on the stage for his live performance. After reaching on the stage, he rocked the stage of American idol by singing his song “Leave Right Now”. This song was also featured on the contestants’ elimination each week. As the song is really sad and full of emotions therefore it was the goodbye song for the contestants of American Idol every week

UK Metro

Has Will Young cracked the US after American Idol performance?

 

Will Young has become the name on the lips of thousands of Americans this morning after he performed Leave Right Now as the exit song for the ninth season of American Idol.

 

..The song has been used as the soundtrack in the montage videos for eliminated contestants every week and could now propel the Brit on the road to unlikely stardom Stateside.

 

His live performance of the song went down a treat with the audience and was followed by a huge internet buzz around the 2002 Pop Idol winner, who's largely unknown in the US.

 

Leave Right Now - from Young's 2003 second album Friday's Child - sold 520,000 copies in the UK and made the No1 spot.

 

It is the talented singer's debut US single and has already reached No29 in the American Billboard charts.

 

Young has been on a whirlwind publicity tour in America promoting the track.

 

He's been cramming in big-station radio interviews, attended the E! TV 20th Anniversary party and dropped in on a Perez Hilton shindig.

 

He also wooed industry big-wigs with a special five-track concert after his American Idol performance.

 

The star has certainly made waves in America – and not just at LA's Laguna beach, where he caught some sun and surf before taking to the stage in front of Simon Cowell and co.

 

Those in the know suggest it would now be no surprise if Will does what Robbie Williams has never managed to and becomes hot property over there.

 

See video footage of the American Idol performance of Leave Right Now on YouTube below:
