Lyrics
If I wait for just a second more,
I know I'll forget what I came here for,
My head was so full of things to say,
But as I open my lips all my words slip away
and anyway,
I can't believe you want to turn the page,
And move your life onto another stage,
You can change the chapter you can change the book,
But the story remains the same if you'd take a look.
[Chorus]
For the times we've had I don't want to be - a page in your diary babe,
For the good, the bad I don't want to see - a page in your diary babe,
For the happy, the sad - I don't want to be another page in your diary.
Perhaps if I held you I could win again,
I could take your hands we'd talk and maybe then -
That look in your eyes I always recognise,
Would tell me everything is gonna be fine,
You're gonna be mine
for a long time...
[Chorus]
For the times we've had I don't want to be - a page in your diary babe,
For the good, the bad I don't want to see - a page in your diary babe,
For the happy, the sad - I don't want to be another page in your diary.
For the times we've had I don't want to be - a page in your diary babe,
For the good, the bad I don't want to see - a page in your diary babe,
For the happy, the sad - I don't want to be, just another page in your history.

Long before Adele and Duffy, there was Alison Moyet...What powerful vocals! What a beautiful voice!
Adele looks a lot like Alison Moyet and her voice too.
I personally prefer Alison over both of them
Can’t stand that Adele stuff, Alison is miles better, better music 👌💙☮️
@@sootyyidette5557 me too sooty ☝️
@@loramatildak5200 not now I saw her on a talk show in us other day, she’s been under the knife, In every way possible 🎃
57 years old....this still gives me goosebumps. Quite possibly the best female voice I've ever heard. Whose still listening in 2024.
51 me too
58 years old, takes me back to Great Yarmouth Art college sharing a house with 5 girls from the fashion course, such great memories and still listen to it.😘
53... ❤❤❤❤
56,,,still listening fantastic
51 this year and heard this on the radio this week at 4;30 In the morning while traveling down the M1 and thought... Why is't this played more🙂guess I'm getting old😅
Alison's voice is so underrated. I'm 64 now and this takes me back to the 80s!❤
:)
Why how cultured you are! Insisting that most other people don't rate Alison Moyet's voice you know one of the most popular vocalists of all time.
I'm proud and thankful for being a teenager in the 1980's.
Me too
My mom is too
💚
@Ulisses Zeitune: I was 7 in a half when this song charted, I am proud to have grown up in the 1980's.
Me three😊
Jesus! I was 63 in December. This only seems like yesterday. 40 years gone in the blink of a song.
yup
Well said!
I was 60 just gone, 10th November, know exactly what you mean. 👍👍
Free bus pass soon
Happy Happy B Day 🎁
Her voice!!!! She is without a doubt one of the best singers from the 80's
One of the best singers and songs of the 80's
In communist Romania, a Yazoo tape was passed from one teen to another like a magical artifact. And it was magic: we felt that, despite of the Iron Curtain and Cold War and dictatorship, we were dancing in synch with the western youth. The parties were great, so was the music. We felt connected and part of a vibrant world. Music made us happy.
Why Yazoo and not a bigger star like Michael Jackson ?
And now you have capitalist freedom loving Tate banging your women ;)
Cuz Yazoo is so much better!
Теперь диктатуры нет?
@@seankenneally3483i don't remember having asked you
I'm amazed how many great groups Vince Clarke was a part of. Depeche Mode, Erasure and Yazoo. Everything he touched was gold.
What about "the assembly" In-between Yazoo and erasure???
Probably the most underrated influential artist of the 80s.
IS...He IS gold.
Agreed
IMHO - and it's just that - DM not as good after Vince Clarke left. Still good, but different and the tunes not quite as sharp.
Absolutely one of the most underrated female singers ever!
Stupid.......She was highly rated everywhere.
For sure!
AGREED
Why? who on earth doesn't rate Alison Moyets voice 🤣
:)
Alison has an incredible voice, instantly recognisable, she's pure authentic in her talent.
:)
This is real music.
The 80's music was so diverse, rich and powerful.
Something as simple as this song has brought tears to my eyes.
To be born at the right time to experience the 60's/ 70's / 80's and 90's music is so special.
Such a beautiful song, I would go in my room and play this song on repeat
My dad, a 70s/80s kid said quote: “the reason that music was so good in the 60s-90s was because everyone was afraid of America and Russia roping everyone into a nuclear war so they wanted to make music like it was their last”
The best
Yeh I was born in 77, so got to experience the 80s. Best time of my life
70's and 80's ! That was life ....
One of the best break-up songs of all time.
We were so lucky to be young people
in the 80s all this great music
You still not young?
@@blardyblardy509 sadly not 51 now
😢i envy you guys...
If you where young in the 80s im guessing you're in your late 40s early 50s ? That's still young man.
@@msmacker13 If only that were true...Get your calculator out. I was 23 in May 1983 when this song was released, now I'm 61. 2 generations have passed since its release. The biggest difference is that in those days to have a song to play, we had to buy a record or a tape, at great expense (relative to costs now). CDs came out only 6 months before this song (1st release of a CD was on Oct 1, 1982), so they were not yet mainstream. The bottom line is that music was expensive back then. The only other way to hear it was on the radio, TV, or at a bar or disco. More than just years have passed, but 2 generations of technology (records to CDs to online music). In the whole of world history, the 40 years from the 1980's to 2020's is probably the biggest leap forward. Back in 1983 we had to go home to make a phone call, or use a public phone booth. If I had a choice and could go back to the 80s, I would. I don't know what I did with my time back then, but now most of it is spent in front of my computer, in the cyber world.
What a classic!! Anyone else here in 2024
Listen to this all the time...adore Yazoo ❤
Yep, once heard. Never forgotten.
Sadly, I found out about her a bit late in my life. Beautiful.
Never left.
I think she wrote the lyrics when she was I6, which makes it even more special to me. It's a very poignant song.👍
Alison is a singer whose very first note has your heart leaping and the hairs on the back of your neck standing up. A voice of commanding beauty. ❤
Tbh she puts many of todays female vocalists to shame the power and range she can achieve is incredible.
And all without mumbling her words.
Agreed
For sure, she had plenty of competition from other female vocalists of her time such as Annie Lennox, Laura Brannigan, Steve Nicks and many more and she still shone thru!.
She is just amazing , Love! her voice
it irks me that now singers don't have to have great voices to be recording artists
Anyone still listening to this - 2024? Some of the songs they recorded were certainly a track list I listen to often.
Estou ouvindo agora 😊
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Yep, still listening to amazing Alf...🥰
🇦🇷🇦🇷🙏
I don't want to be another page in your Diary Ahhhhhhhh
Vince Clarke is amazing he started Depeche Mode and he went to Yazoo followed by Erasure why isn't he recognized as one of the greatest innovators on the keyboards of all time?
Then you have the beautiful and talented Alison Moyet who wrote half the damn songs and has a voice to which Adele owes everything.
absolutely right!
@@TheBruteOne were they a couple?
I instantly thought Alison when I saw and heard Adele. I guess I’m not the only one.
As kids my parents would play this in the car. Those were the days.
I dont like many of todays artists but Adelle is one of the new superstars. No diubt about it. Love her music.
I agree. Alison's voice is a one off, and Vince was in three incredible bands as a songwriter and keyboard player. Ridiculous talent.
Alison Moyet and Vince Clarke are legends. I love Alison's voice, it's incredible. Vince Clarke is a genius ❤️😘🤗
Claro Alison aqui sempre neste 🛡️ em proteger deste Corruptos #
Couldn't have said it any better.
I agree... unbelievable '80s....
God bless England for the Music ❤🏴
I can't believe I've been listening to this for over 30 years...and I still love it
timeless
So true...she is awesome. Love her thru the years...still listening to her in June 2022...timeless..cheers to Ms. Alison Moyet!
Tenho no meu celular sempre ouço amo muito essa música 🥰
Me too!!
40 years today :)
one of my all time favorite songs. Alison Moyet has one of the most powerful and poignant voices I ever heard.
It's November 2023 and this song is still so poignant, it's a whole book, not just a page in your diary.
Possibly one of the best synth tracks ever, this is such a multilayered masterpiece, bravo.
I'm 60 now, and this song still gives me chills, love it
Cant believe this was almost 40 years ago. Absolute classic
I know......crazy my man 👊😎
I don't want to think about it.
It's allways great.
Una maravilla de tema ..con Alison moyet
John Bond yep I don’t know where the years have gone , I’m now 59 , loved her then , love her now , I loved the 80s best music , best rally cars , it’s a shame I can’t go back in time.
I am 14 and this is one of the greatest songs that I've ever heard!!
I’m 63 and its right up there with the best.
Listen to “Only you” by Yaz, equally great
@@misterbuttersworth9904 I've listened to the majority of Yazoo's greatest hits, they are all excellent songs!
@@LeoHodges best band ever to be named after a milkshake
3 times more then ya and still rattling me ear holes off with this one👍👍😂
Thank god I grew up in the 80s and studied as a nurse in Chelmsford great night clubs my favourite was dukes .. what happened to the days gone so quick hugs to every New Romantic lol
Hugs to you and thanks for being a nurse, amazing times so far away now ❤
So glad, and privileged to have been clubbing in the 80s/90s, what an era. Growing up with bands such as Sex Pistols, Joy Division (New Order), Depeche Mode, Tubeway Army (and the GOD Gary Numan), Human League, Vision, The Smiths, The Cure, The Cult, OMD, Men Without Hats, Cocteau Twins, Visage, Sisters Of Mercy, Stone Roses, Siouxsie and The Banshees, Echo and the Bunnymen...... ahhhh this list can go on! Thank God for a great era of music.
Yazoo?
Hear! Hear!
I worked in London in 88 my dad was desk security at Mute records, i met Erasure, Alison, Vince, many more, happy days
You nailed it!!!
Add Ultravox. Never underestimate Ultravox.
A master piece! Takes me be back to the greatest decade of all...the 80s👏 what a previledge to be a teenager then👌
The great 80's decade came to a crashing halt in 1985. Stock , Aitken and Waterman came along.
@@sunnygovan7 I've always said 1987 when KROQ played Nirvana and looking bad and feeling bad came back in style, but maybe you're right.
It was the fusion of Allison's warm bluesy soulful voice against Vince's icy cold synth melodies that made Yazoo unique and Unforgettable.
I remember walking down Oxford St and just glancing into a doorway….there she was, Alison Moyet ❤…. I did a double take with a shocked smile on my face. I got a a beautiful coy smile back. I’ll never forget that moment.
I was a teenager in the 80th and grew up with this fantastic music. I still listen to this songs now and I'm always thinking of this great time in my life.
So amazing. She is great love upstairs at erics the whole scene talent. Shes fab xx
Me too
Fabulous music. New wave was one amazing thing to happen during the end of the 70's and all 80's. I recall all that fantastic time and still listen Yazoo, Erasure, Blondie, Bronski Beat, Talking Heads, Alphaville, AHA, Sommerville, Camouflage, Cutting Crew, INXS, Talk Talk ... oh my, the list is so long.
Marty, whe have to go back!
80' never die💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Take me bk to the 80s....please...miss everything about it
You can have the best of the 80s today
Me too please!
I was in my 20's!!
Damned clock! It doesn't stop
i feel sorry for todays youth the utter garbage they call music its depressing to say the least
Youth is wasted on the young unfortunately.
@@stanbeattie4852 The same has been said about youth and music in the 80s, 90s, 2000, etc, etc, etc. Complainers like you, have fed me up for several decades.
Alison's voice is so amazing. Even now I am at awe of how amazing her voice was then and still one of the best. The music, beautiful voice, was a pure magic for great songs and this is one more of those incredible songs that brought happiness, but then sadness, breakups and moments when this song was bitter sweet, yet always beautiful to hear regardless.
NO HA D BREK YEA MORE AND WROM #
Yazoo + Erasure = my teens!
Alison Moyet : the most unique voice in music history.
certainly one of them
Adle owes her $$$$$
Not every voice is unique in terms of tone and style. So many sound remarkably similar, especially today. Moyet is instantly recognisable.
@S T I'm not talking about her accent.
David UK Exactly
Allison Moyet is a very underrated singer in my humble opinion.
plane7 , yes she has a powerful voice, gorgeous as well btw
Hell yes
True
Axl Rose is too.
lot of competition in that time
Take me back to the early 80's, please.
Two of the most talented artists of the 80s
I saw Yazoo at Sonar Festival in Barcelona in 2008. This was the first song they played. Total chills from first to last note. They practically played every single song they ever released. A night to remember....
That must have been awesome
wow! That would have been very, very cool!
Thank GOD I was born in 1971 and therefore spent my teenage years between 1982 and 1989!!!!
Love Alison ❤ one of the best voices ever !
God how great was it to live as a teenager in the 80s , I hate what music as become now 😒 forever an 80s child
Couldn't agree more, unfortunately not just the music is bad now. This world is so dodgy but this country is not good
This, kids, is real music....
I understand why you are saying this (and I agree), but I can tell you, lots of people at the time this came out, didn't think that synthpop was 'real music'. Musicians are making real music today also :-)
Each generation has its own music.
Only for the old, today´s music is good too, there are good musicians.
You must search. You´re not searching? You don´t find.
When you only listen to charts you´re not in music... This was the same in the 80ies!
@@studio5176 Each generation has its idols.
All the comments , But you are the one that is dead right
Am I the only one who is still listening to Yazoo in 2020 ???
no, not the only one 😉😎
Actually no one gives a shit if you are.
Nope! 👾
@@zip261 great feedback ta. Very creative, yawning out aloud
No
One of the best female vocalists this country has ever had to offer, imho.
Peace.
we live in an era where some crap twerk song can have 100 million views on youtube and masterpieces like this one have only 10k views. I guess someone must have loved in the 80s to appreciate such timeless songs. It never gets old. Alison Moyet and Vince Clark. It feels like the 80s and i m holding the Upstairs at Erics LP in my hands..
I'm 33 year old millennial, pissed at 5.19am on a Sunday night and enjoying it if that helps. I go back decades and to loads of genres to find gems from the past I can appreciate. I wouldn't expect many people younger than me to figure that out lol
Remember 50% of people have below average IQ and are essentially retards that only listen to the crap in the charts.... no offence intended.
Vince's keyboards are & were embarrassing. I remember at the time being shocked that behind the tinkling garbage Alison was singing the blues! OMG she's straight up singing the blues. Alison Moyet has the best voice outside like Aretha, Dionne & Whitney. Alison can properly sing, probably she is the best white voice out there.
This vid is at 2.5m…
I'm so glad I was a kid of the 80s there was so much good music and less of this instant gratification nation that we have now so anticipation was a requirement in life
Remember waiting for the charts to come out? Watching TOTP and wondering what was going to be on?
I fondly remember Sunday night spent with a radio cassette recorder, trying to time your favorites as they played according to the chart position. It was the only way for most of us. You couldn’t listen to anything you wanted and buying albums or latterly CD’s was a significant purchase. The 80’s must be one of the greatest era’s in pop. My son once said to me that it must have been great growing up in such a time where music was so good. I didnt look at it that way at the time but there certainly were some great bands playing then that are still appreciated today.
I've always wondered if our parents thought the same sort of things about us. I can remember my mum and my nan doing the ' 🙄 in my day' thing. 😂
Loved the 80's, but not at the time...
Amazing that ABBA came back with such a fitting song!!! Thank you all !!
I personally know Alison and her family. We lived in the same town, Basildon in Essex. She didn’t need a gimmicky Simon Cowell type show to portray her talents. In fact, electronic music wasn’t the path she ever intended to take. Unlike Adele, she built her career on just being a beautiful woman with a beautiful voice, a young girl working in a local factory whose voice was and still is mesmerising. Started her singing career busking in Basildon town square. She happened to be in the same school as Vince Clark which is how that show got on the road. They were mates, as were all the Depeche mode members. Vince Clarke, in my opinion, would not have had anywhere near the success he has achieved without her. He chose Andy Bell as a replacement to form Erasure. Listen to the similarities in their voices. Coincidence? What do you think?
Andy Bell always reminds me of Alison’s voice. I agree with you. Ms Moyet is a superb singer. Still sounds fantastic today
Ye they're very similar, a masculine woman and a feminine man...had the same voice!
Should have had a Collab would have been epic
@@undisputed1291 she's not masculine, she's just got a warm Deep voice, maybe better for soul music than for pop, but, anyway, a superb One.
@@undisputed1291 Yeah, I wouldn't describe her voice as masculine. It's deep, sure, but unmistakably feminine, powerful, and soulful. Incredible talent.
AWESOME !!!
ONE OF THE BEST SONGS/TUNES EVER !!!!!!!!!!
The most underrated song from 80's, this is pure love 💢
The pair of them just look so cute, so young.
Great track by the way
Even Today these lyrics mean Something 👊👊
Without a doubt one of the most beautiful voices on this planet
Takes me back to a happier time when my parents were alive and I was close to my brother and sister. RIP Mom and Dad. Despite trying, I haven’t spoken to my siblings for over twenty years. Love the ones you are with.
sorry to hear that. in a similar boat myself. thank god for youtube though.
I feel for you!!!
Make that contact mate
Try again 😚
i am physically disabled by a car accident 18 years ago since then, music is my support, thanks :-))
miguel ingles serrano hello
Mate sorry about your accident.
Please enjoy the music. Merry Christmas and a happy New Year.
And many more
@@bluepeter3470 thanks
Good music is a good support. It can take you to another time. In art, the canvas is called the "support" - upon that you lay down your base and then your colours. Shine through and have a blessed and magical Christmas, Miguel. MERRY CHRISTMAS, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
We're here for you dude
Heard this for the first time on Boom Radio last night and so glad I did. Been stuck in my head since. Really appreciating Yazoo more than I did before. 🙌
One of the greatest breakup songs ever recoded.
Brought my kids here to show them real music!! ✌️😇
Alison wrote this awesome song when she was just 16yrs old 🙌🏻🎤👑🎵🎵🎵😷👍🏻
OMG
After her 16th pie of the evening I heard
@@HYPERMASCULINE You sound like a bitch🤔
Love this. Takes me back. Alison Moyet _ one of THE voices of that decade.
Only heard this song for the first time last week and I have it, literally, on loop and cannot stop listening. Simply awesome ❤
Such an amazing song. Amazing in the 80s, still a beautiful song today. Saw their reunion tour in 2008 and they started with this song. So many people cheering, tears running down their faces. And Alison Moyet is so underrated it's criminal.
The voice, the tune, the era, the good times, its a page in my diary for definite.
I was 22 years old when this came out and a vince yazoo fan and in love with a lovlelly girl at the time brings it all back like a time machine . x Sandra Davies lydney / wyesham . .x
Vincent is absolutely one of the most under rated producers as a synth pioneer, he deserves much more credit for inspiring the late 80s techno producers and Detroit techno producers, and inspiring a lot of 80s synth groups ❤️🙌🏻 love Yazoo 😀
his wallet is oke,
A beautiful song, wonderful lyrics, stands the test of time. I actually remember this when it came out, thought it was great, it really takes me back. Kudos to both Alison Moyet and Vince Clark, because her voice is just so magnificent, to Vince, ye gods, the melodies, it's instantly recognisable, a thing of beauty,. It's impossible nowadays to imagine how, just groundbreaking this was, this actually happened. Can you imagine a world without this song? It would be rather a more bland world. Thank you, Alison and Vince.
Wonderful voice from miss Moyet , pure genius from Vince Clarke
Beautiful - the music, Moyet's voice, the lyrics. We've had a fantastic time in the 80ies.
Alison - the voice, and so powerful it is, and she looks so amazing. Vince - a true genius, such a cool guy. We were blessed to have them. What a legacy!!
I bought this single from Tesco in High Wycombe just after it opened in 1983! Happy days!
I've been playing these 80's songs in the car to my daughter and she's amazed that we had such amazing music. I'm proud and eternally grateful for the time I was born......we had it all...and no social media 😁
My 21 y.o. daughter thanks me for playing my music for her.
I heard this song tonight for the first time in about 40 odd years. It almost made me cry. I'm going through tough time at the moment and I felt what she was singing. I liked the song 40 years ago. Now I can relate to it xx
is gonna to be fine…..
all the best 👍👍👍
Suzanne Payne, hope you are ok and get through whatever you are going through. Tough times for lots of people over last couple of years, hope you have someone who will be there and listen without making judgement. Take care of yourself.
Vince Clark does not get enough credit for his craft , he is one of the 80s era's greatest influences . With the passing of Andy Fletcher it would be great to see Alan Wilder and Vince Clarke team up with Martin Gore an Dave Gahan to do a good old 80s style tribute ...
What a great combination they were Alison moyet with her wonderful vocals and vince Clarke keyboard supremo. Great stuff.
And that is what it was.. they didn't even sing together towards the end. Vince would record during the day, and Alison would come sing at night to his recordings. Sad, and this song was solely Alison's which she chose to include Vince on.. which was her goodbye to him and Yazoo. If you have not watched the documentary of this duo, please do...

I swear I feel out of place with music. I’m 13 but I love all of the older music. It’s a lot more loveable than all of this new shit. I’m only here because I’ve had this masterpiece stuck in my head for the past week tho
Crying. Remembering my youth. Upstairs at Eric's was one of my first albums
This man is a musical master. I love both Erasure and Yazoo. Play on! 💪
Alison Moyet is THE VOICE OF MY LIFE... Saludos desde Galicia ( SPAIN )💜💚💜💥🌟💥

This is still my favourite Yazoo song of all time!
Without any doubt my favourite and they had so many good songs, what a time to be a teenager
Alison Moyet hat so eine wunderschöne und kraftvolle Stimme ❤
The 80s was the best for music bands that could play and write there own songs
It's December 2020, who else is watching? Greetings from the Philippines.
January 2021 for me. Great song.
Anyway." I cant believe you want to turn the page...but the story remains".

The most perfect days in my lifetime😍😍😍😍
Forever grateful for my father (born in 69’) sharing 80’s music with my sister and I. Wish I could go back in time and re live this era first hand. Song is a banger !
Fiction factory feels like heaven, China crises wishful thinking, blancmange waves. 3 amazing songs and artists from the 80's enjoy
Fab my gran bought me the single and a Sony Walkman best years of my life love love it xxx❤
She was amazing back in the day and I was too much of a fool to really notice the fact! I can only imagine Vince Clarke, Moyet together again. Hell even Andy Bell aswell, all three of them making new stuff would be brilliant!
Shiatt! I miss Alison Moyet and that uniqueness. 80's Always***
My all-time favourite Yazoo tune, and one of my fave early 80s songs. Thanks for making it available here! (I'm 1968)
Was für eine Stimme ❤❤❤
Her voice is just unique.
Still is. We love her.

June 2021 and this still sounds incredible. The best songs are timeless 🖤🙌🏽
I absolutely agree with you on that. They are!
Alison moyet has to be one of the best female singers of all time what ay beautiful voice
Yazoo's masterpiece.
Increíble que estos 2 no se pescaban.., muchas canciones las hicieron por separado. El pelao vincent mandaba a Alison a las entrevistas sola mientras el componía... aun así formaron un gran grupo como el agua y el aceite con canciones espectaculares como esta....
