One of the most beautiful songs of the 80's! Alison Moyet is just a fantastic singer!!!
@christianoazzuro671110 ай бұрын
This is their first big one and an '80s classic.I also love 'Situation" that's in the same irresistble dance mood similar to 'Don't GOOOO". Alison's mouth was a loudspeaker and could sing all the blues catalogue long before the likes of Adele and the rest,not to mention that her pipes could sent a whole flock of some of today's autotuned divas to hide in shame and never to comeback.

Love Alison Moyet - in Yazoo and solo. Saw her live a few years ago - the show was brilliant. Have you ever heard Only You sung by The Flying Pickets? 1980's acapella group - the original acapella group!

Thanks Dereck, this is truly one of the most beautiful songs ever written, but then all of Yazoo's work is outstanding (and yet sadly underrated/forgotten?) Can you please react to Kim Wilde's Can't Get Enough of Your Love? I think you will love it! PS - Just saw Kim Wilde live over the weekend, she's still rocking as much as ever at 63 :D

G'day it's Steven from down under again Thank you for the trip down memory lane, I haven't heard this song in many years, the , lead singer Alison Moyet went solo after Yazoo ended. I have to back to my album and CD collection to find more Yazoo songs.

🇬🇧 "Invisible" by Alison Moyet is my favourite. The music industry treated Alison terribly back then, you see, she didn't have right figure in their eyes! So she stopped performing. Yep they did that. But Alison is a very strong (& special) lady. It took her a while but she's back performing, and she still has that beautiful voice, she can still belt em out. I really hope you give "Invisible" a couple of minutes of your time. ❤🎼

Back in 1982, the blend of a warm bluesy vocal with a brittle synth track was a new move. Electronic music of the era was exciting but it didn't often get emotional. Yazoo broke some ground in that respect. Eurythmics came soon after, offering another bluesy/emotion/electro fusion. Yazoo's 1983 track, Ode To Boy, is a stunner too. Check it out.
