Symphonic Week Day 6/7: Yazoo - Only You (2017 Orchestral Version)

 

In late 1981, after leaving Depeche Mode, Vince Clarke was looking for someone to sing on a demo of a song he had written called "Only You". Alison Moyet, who attended the same Saturday music school when they were 11 years old, happened to be advertising in a local paper so he called her. A few weeks later, the song was released as Yazoo's first single on 15 March 1982 in the UK and became an instant success, peaking at number 2 on the UK Singles Chart. The version here is the Orchestral Version, taken from the compilation 'Four Pieces (Box Set)', released 26 October 2018.
