Yaz was the American name taken by Yazoo, a British duo made up of former Depeche Mode synthesizer player Vince Clarke and singer Alison Moyet (b.Jun 18, 1961). The two stayed together only about a year and a half (1982-1983), but that was long enough to score four British hit singles and two top-selling albums. Moyet then went solo and Clarke eventually formed another successful duo, Erasure. — William Ruhlmann More... (Submit New Yaz Lyrics) (Submit New Yaz Lyrics) Upstairs | Reviewer: Coreyism ------ About the song Only You performed by Yaz The entire album, Upstairs at Eric's, is fantastic and should be heard by all generations. It is a statement of the 80's but certainly transcends into the 90's and beyond. Everyone should be able to appreciate this song's simplicity. It's a real tear jerker. What IS it about ? | Reviewer: Jeff ------ About the song Only You performed by Yaz I have had this tune in my head for the last few days. No reason except that it is such a sweet, simple, sparse tune. But it got me thinking: I don't really know what it is about. Which is why I looked it up here. Reading the lyrics through, my guess: She is in a relationship but it is at the point where she thinks she may have to end it. She is feeling the detachment and pining wistfully for the earlier days when she only had eyes for her partner. love it | Reviewer: karen '86 ------ About the song Only You performed by Yaz can't get this song out of my head. I heard it the other day. loved it when I was in high school and it still has the same effect on me. simple, yet beautiful. go figure. baby song | Reviewer: meryl ------ About the song Only You performed by Yaz as odd as it may seem, this is the song that sends my 3 month old daughter to a peacefull place. I loved this song in high school and since I didn't know traditional baby songs Only You became my go to song to calm her or send her off to sleep Only You | Reviewer: paloma ------ About the song Only You performed by Yaz I lOvE tHiS sOnG!!! ThE LyRiCs AnD tHe MeLoDy ArE jUsT WoNdErFuL!! What about The Chocolate War?! | Reviewer: justine ------ About the song Only You performed by Yaz Dear veterans of the eighties, I implore you to take a stand for our music and its original movie music soundtracks. We can't let Johnny-come-lately television series be known as the the only vessels known for carrying such important music. This OUR past. Hell, the 50's vets have beach music, My Girl, 60's has Hendrix and the birth of all coolness, we must embrace our own radio heritage and take a stand. We must pick up our old ghetto blasters, much like dear John Cusack, in 'Say Anything", and raise our hands up high, without throwing our back out supporting such apparatuses, and say, "This is my music! My special moment, ie, first kiss, loss of virginity, first boss I ever told to 'kiss my ass' was because of the influence of the lyrics from this song, or the course of action a hero took in a movie. (The Breakfast Club is a mighty fine example. When Judd Nelson tells his beloved principle to 'eat his socks'-which may or may not have been 'eat my shorts' but because of the lewd implications there are to suggesting that one might make a dinner of someone's unmentionables, has been permanently altered, in meaning and delivery,...well, I'm just not sure of the reason, but its the example that I think mid-level thirtians (really? Thirtians?) Should do. But really, we owe the admission of Yaz' "only you" to that great film, "The Chocolate War", along with a general 'thanks' to many other wonderful eighties musicians, including Peter Gabriel, who contributed several songs to this soundtrack, as well as the infamous, or rather, just plain 'fabulous', and uplifiting love anthem, "In your eyes", from Say Anything. anon | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Only You performed by Yaz Great song. Probably one of the prettiest and yet simple love songs ever written. I remember buying the album, yes album, Upstairs at Erics when I was back in high school and I just fell in love with this song. It was the one you wish was written for you. Kinda kwirky, but oh so sweet! What does the song mean? | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Only You performed by Yaz What is your opinion on the inspiration/meaning of this song? sweet song | Reviewer: anonymous ------ About the song Only You performed by Yaz This song was also used for the romantic finale of the original British Office series.
