I have no idea what any of those words mean.

Demetrius		2013-01-31 10:13:35 PM

Love her voice...she seems like a horribly depressed person though. Hopefully this is more upbeat than some of her other stuff.

Harvey Manfrenjensenjen		2013-01-31 10:17:25 PM

I've been a fan of pretty much everything Moyet and Clarke have done for the past 30 years. I'm looking forward to this.

That pic makes me think "Swallow your soul! Swallow your soul!!"

'Situation' was on XM yesterday, and for the first time in the 1 brazillion times I have heard that song, I realized the lyrics make no senseMove out, don't mess aroundMove out, you bring me downMove out, how you get aboutDon't make a sound just move outNope, gibberish... It just sounds good

AzDownboy		2013-01-31 10:44:53 PM

I don't know, I just thought it meant for her boyfriend to "move out", as in pack boxes and leave, because he brings her down.

This song came out when I'd just broken up with my first live-together serious girlfriend.
Utterly destroyed me.

unlikely		2013-01-31 10:53:42 PM

This one too

What are you, 80 or 20? Yaz came out in 1982. She was a big part of the 1st Live Aid in 85.

Near Swanee River?

Ahhh... Alison Moyet... the masculine half of Yazoo...

rocky_howard		2013-02-01 02:33:43 AM

She was also part of Heaven 17 and made this kickass song:

Who's the guy singing?

Hm. I thought some Pricipal caught sayof'd Alanis Morrissette and Yahoo.

robohobo		2013-02-01 03:54:03 AM

For the younglings wandering in who don't who she is, she was responsible for this 80's staple. You may recognize it from the final scene of Can't Hardly Wait, also Fringe.

/I'll kick everyone's ass in this room!
//FRINGE!

I accidentally a word.

Who the hell is that? The picture in TFA looks like it's from the 60's.

Yeah, and y'all suckaz who A) don't know Yaz/Yazoo or B)Alison Moyet don't know how to act!

fustanella		2013-02-01 08:55:23 AM

"Essex" is solid on every track. Not a big fan of her Yaz work. But her "Coventry Carol" is hauntingly delicious.

Essex is awesome - "Dorothy" is one of my favorite songs ever. HooDoo is good too but it takes a while to get under your skin (and Kirsty MacColl sings backup on some tracks).

I still can't get used to the new, slim Alison, though... she just looks wrong.

DoctorOfLove		2013-02-01 12:53:48 PM

Didn't she almost marry ryan gosling?
