Only You | Yazoo NEW Cover 2023

“Only You“ is a song by English synth-pop duo Yazoo. It was written by member Vince Clarke, while he was still with Depeche Mode, but recorded after he formed Yazoo with Alison Moyet. It was released as Yazoo’s first single on 15 March 1982 in the United Kingdom, taken from their album, Upstairs at Eric’s, peaking at number two in the UK Singles Chart on 16 May 1982. An a cappella version by the Flying Pickets was even more successful than the original on the UK Singles Chart; it was released towards the end of 1983 and became the Christmas number one 1983. It spent five weeks at the top. This made “Only You“ the first a cappella chart-topper in the UK. The song was also the 1983 Christmas number one in Ireland.
