On the Official Australian Airplay chart, the song debuted at #8, making it the second-highest debut song ever on the chart behind Delta Goodrem's, "In This Life" which debuted at #6 in September, 2007. "Please Don't Leave Me" made a #46 debut on the Australian ARIA Charts the chart week of 19 January 2010. Still, entertaining as the video is, it's P!nk's bruised vocals - which convey the combination of bitterness and regret in her lyrics perfectly - that leave the biggest impression". "I can be so mean when I wanna be, I am capable of really anything," sings P!nk here, one of several lines that resonate harder once you've seen her brandishing a golf club, chucking her invalid boyfriend out of his wheelchair and chasing him round the house with an axe. Within the context of her Funhouse album, 'Please Don't Leave Me' seemed like a quite good angsty break-up song - one of many quite good angsty break-up songs on there - but after watching the Misery-inspired promo it becomes something far more memorable. She insists during the chorus, "I always say how I don't need you, but it's always gonna come right back to this, please don't leave me." The song was one of the first three to be heard and performed from Funhouse, being performed along with "So What" and second single, " Sober", live on Much Music, prior to the album's release.ĭigital Spy gave the song a positive review: "A really good video can make you realise a song's better than you originally thought - a case in point being the new P!nk single. P!nk sings of someone having a bad effect on her, yet not being able to let go of the person. The song is a mid-tempo track that details a love-hate relationship. It is one of four songs from the album produced by Max Martin, with the number one single " So What" being another of the four. "Please Don't Leave Me" was co-written by P!nk and Max Martin, who handled the production as well, for the track.
