"Don't Go" by Yaz

Yaz (originally called Yazoo) was a synth pop group that had some modest chart success in the US in the early 80s. Yaz was comprised of Alison Moyet and Vince Clarke (formerly of Depeche Mode) and their 1982 record, "Upstairs at Eric's" is considered a landmark release in the genre.

In terms of chart hits, though, it left quite a bit to be desired. "Situation" stalled at #73 and "Only You" only reached #67. "Don't Go" is the track that kicks off this album and feels more like a hit, but it didn't chart.

Moyet would strike out on a solo career and Clarke later formed a similar band, Erasure. Both would find greater chart success beyond Yaz: Moyet had a #31 hit in 1985 with "Invisible" and Erasure would score three Top 40 hits in the late 80s and 90s.
