Anne Murray – Who’s Leaving Who (US 12″)
Posted by DjPaulT on 29th June 2010
BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1986
Side A Label
Who’s Leaving Who is a song written by Jack White and Mark Spiro, first recorded by Canadian country singer Anne Murray in 1986. It achieved a bigger popularity in Europe when it was covered by British Hi-NRG singer Hazell Dean in 1988.
The song was recorded by Anne Murray for her 1986 album Something To Talk About, and was produced by Jack White. The album saw a departure from Murray’s typical country music, being a straightforward 80′s synth-pop album.
Who’s Leaving Who was released as the album’s second single, after her Canadian and US #1 country single Now and Forever (You and Me). The single failed to reach the same level of success, peaking at #93 in the Canadian singles chart, and failing to chart in the USA Billboard Hot 100. Its biggest success was in the Adult Contemporary charts, peaking at #15 in Canada and #26 in the USA.
This 12″ also marks one of the only 12″ singles that Anne Murray ever released. This version has not appeard on CD as far as I know.
