Yazoo - Don't Go
It was late 1981, and Depeche Mode were enjoying the success of their debut album, Speak and Spell, when their main songwriter and mastermind of the band, Vince Clarke, unexpectedly decided to leave the band without a main songwriter (except Martin Gore collaborated). on two songs from the first album).
Clark can't stand what success brings. He is tired of fans caring more about the clothes they wear than the music they make.
His character was very obsessive and did not fit with the chaos of the team at that time. He couldn't change other people, so he decided to jump ship after completing his Speak and Spell promotional tour.
Later that year, Clark answered an ad for Alison Moyette, a self-proclaimed blues and soul singer. The pair took their names from the blues and jazz record labels that emerged in the 1960s.
The result is indeed an interesting combination. A singer with an incredible voice inspired by blues and jazz, and Clark's virtuosity with the synthesizers, give the duo their unique sound.
The first single they recorded was 1982's Only You, a song written by Clark, who initially offered it to Depeche Mode as a parting gift, but they turned it down.
The single's B-side is none other than Situation, an '80s classic that hit the dance floors with enormous force when it was released on 7-inch and 12-inch vinyl that year.
This was followed by another hit, "Don't Go", which reached number one not only in Europe but also in the United States.
