Yazoo / Yaz - Don’t Go (HD) (yaz 001)

“Don’t Go“ is a song by British synthpop band Yazoo (known as Yaz in America due to copyright reasons). It was released in July 1982 as the second single from their debut album, Upstairs at Eric’s. Released in the UK in July 1982, the song peaked at number three on the UK Singles Chart, becoming Yazoo’s second top 5 hit. In the US, where the band was known as Yaz, the song was their second big hit on the American dance chart, where it spent two weeks at number one in October 1982. Their first American dance chart hit was “Situation“, which had also gone to number one on this chart earlier the same year. The music video for the song (not this clip) features band members Alison Moyet and Vince Clarke (Depeche Mode, erasure) in a sort of haunted mansion. The song is featured in the 1989 film Tango & Cash, in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories on the radio station Wave 103, and appears in Dance Dance Revolution II. The song re-entered the UK Dance Chart on 13 December 2009 at
