The Neighbourhood usher in the holidays with “Why’d You Have To Leave,” the wistful new single via Reprise/Warner Records that leans into the sentimentality of the season to highlight a crushing absence. In keeping with the band’s atmospheric storytelling, the lo-fi track wrestles with the question “why’d you have to leave on Christmas eve? Now every year they laugh & cheer & I feel incomplete.” Listen to “Why’d You Have To Leave” HERE.
The Neighbourhood have become the first band, and only the third act, to have a song cross 5-Billion streams on Spotify with their 2012 hit “Sweater Weather.” The track has become an autumnal staple and is the #1 Most Playlisted track of all time, appearing on more than 103 million user-created playlists.
