Yazoo (known as Yaz in North America) were an English synth-pop duo from Basildon, Essex, consisting of former Depeche Mode member Vince Clarke (keyboards) and Alison Moyet (vocals). The duo formed in late 1981 after Clarke responded to an advertisement Moyet placed in a British music magazine, although the pair had known each other since their schooldays.

Only You" is a song written by English musician Vince Clarke. He wrote it while with Depeche Mode, but recorded it in 1982 after forming the duo Yazoo with Alison Moyet. It was released as Yazoo's first single on 15 March 1982 in the United Kingdom, and became an instant success on the UK Singles Chart, peaking at number 2. It would also reach the Top 10 in neighbouring Ireland as well as Australia.

Only You The Best of Yaz Only Yazoo: The Best Of Upstairs at Eric's Love The Best of Yaz In Your Room Reconnected: Live. Sometimes when I think of her name when it's only a game And I need you Listen to the words that you say it's getting harder to stay When I see you. All I needed was the love you gave All I needed for another day And all I ever knew Only you. This is going to take a long time and I wonder what's mine Can't take no more Wonder if you'll understand it's just the touch of your hand Behind a closed door.

Although "Only You" is played on the same generation of synths, Clarke's melody has a sweetly yearning quality, elegantly arranged by Clarke and producer . Most important, however, is Alison Moyet's perfectly understated vocal performance, soulful yet dignified in the manner of '70s soul star Ann Peebles, of Clarke's gentle and romantic lyrics
