"Leave It to Me" was the third single by the Irish art rock quartet, Director. It was released on 5 January 2007.[1] Although not as popular as the band's debut single "Reconnect", the single fared better than their follow-up single and charted in Ireland at number seventeen, spending only two weeks in the Irish Singles Chart.

National broadcaster, RTÉ, noted the song alongside debut single "Reconnect" as one of the better tracks on the album, We Thrive on Big Cities.[3]
