May 28, 201015 yr Music week US chart report Finally seven years after topping the UK chart, Will Young’s Leave Right Now is in with a shot of entering the Hot 100 next week. The song has been used all season as the ‘exit’ song for contestants leaving American Idol and Young took to the Idol stage to sing the song last Tuesday. The track immediately rose as high as number 22 on the iTunes chart but had slipped back to number 42 by early this morning. But i dont think that's going to happen ... it has very low airplay and it's dropped further down the itunes chart...it would need more promo.
May 28, 201015 yr Wow i'm so happy for you Will fans! :D It must be great seeing him get recognition in the US finally. He really does deserve it. :) Anyway, i'm not a huge fan but I really like him as a person and think he's a fabulous artist. Hopefully his label will do a fully-fledged US campaign for Will now that there's a lot of hype surrounding him at the moment.
May 28, 201015 yr Author Thanks for your good wishes SceneofSIXCrimes. I think AI has been used to introduce Will to the American public & he really couldn't have had a better response. Will is a great long term planner so I'd be surprised if they don't have more visits in the pipeline.
May 28, 201015 yr Talking about Airplay..my link hasn't been updated since Wednesday morning...is it the same for everyone? :huh:

Will is a great long term planner so I'd be surprised if they don't have more visits in the pipeline. No problem. He's like the only UK male artist with class. :D I think it'd be great for him to do well because it would show that he doesn't have to be a rapper or an urban artist to do well over there. America loves country music and acoustic music. While Will is mainly Pop, I do see some elements of country/soul in him - especially soul. His voice has depth.

America loves country music and acoustic music. While Will is mainly Pop, I do see some elements of country/soul in him - especially soul. His voice has depth. Will is a very versatile artist, though casual fans only see the pop artist. You are right he has a very soulful voice & also has done many jazz sets. I've seen him at Ronnie Scotts & am hoping he will do another intimate gig at the 606 that I can attend. He's as comfortable in a jazz club performing to 160 as in an arena, although it causes anguish for his fans who can't get tickets. :lol: . I know I'm biased but in my opinion no one sings acousticaly better than Will & he never gives the same performance of a song. His acoustic performance on Extra seems to be receiving lots of hits in the states.
May 29, 201015 yr Nice to see these still popping up http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_yV6svI3r_8M/TAFSUPTnPgI/AAAAAAAABQc/wzMJx5_aixg/s400/B00006L3YO.02.LZZZZZZZ.jpg I saw Will's video posted over at Yummy of the Day. Will performed this song live on the American Idol finale and I immediately loved it (it usually takes many listenings before I love a song). Will was the first winner of Pop Idol, which spawned American Idol and Idols all over the world, and after came out after winning Pop Idol. This is his official video followed by his AI performance. Will's new album, Leave Right Now, dropped on May 25th. http://justajeepguydc.blogspot.com/2...right-now.html oh..and he is Yummy :wub:

The melody is so beautiful; the lyrics, everything was perfect about his performance, especially his intensity during the song and then his sweet smile at the end. Loved loved loved it.
