Pretty In Pink was a John Hughes film released in 1986.

This album also features contributions from Suzanne Vega, The Psychadelic Furs, Echo And The Bunnymen and The Smiths.

Forced to come up with a new song, OMD did a crash session in a Los Angeles studio where they wrote, recorded and mixed If You Leave in 3 days.

If You Leave was subsequently released as a single.

OMD's original contribution was Goddess Of Love. However, the script for the film was altered after test audiences felt that the Molly Ringwald character should end up with the 'posh kid' played by Andrew McCarthy, rather than Jon Cryer's distinctly individual character.
