  • La prima volta che ho pianto per amore...che bel ricordo....:)

  • Comment removed

  • Ex COMPAÑERA de -uno-del dúo ERASURE (música de calidad y también ex -el- componente de DEPECHE MODE....en sus inicos) ESTA canción NO tuvo la POPULARIDAD de otras,pero para los buenos -AUDITIVOS- siempre estará en nuestros tímpanos.(mejor dicho, en los míos SIEMPRE)

  • wonder shy she didn't catch on here in the US.....oh well..i have always loved her music still have her first album....great voice !! great lyrics!!

  • Amazing song! 20 years on and it can still reduce me to tears

  • oooh what a song, and what a singer. Brings back a lovely romantic time in my life. ne're to be forgotten.

  • what a great song and Alison beautifuly sings the song.

  • A truly beautiful song from an extremely under-rated woman, this was the first album i ever listened to and is still one of my all time faves :) xx

  • This song is as strong as when it first came out - that's what great songwriting is.

  • This song sounds the best only from LP (vinyl). F*ck CD & MP3.

  • take my hat off to Alison talent

  • E' una canzone splendida cantata meravigliosamente.

  • I agree with you all I have this album on LP & CD but you can't beat the real sound of a record deck, MP3 is killing the real sound of music & today what do you get for the download no words to your best track no case just a Ipod or PC that could go wrong at any time, I'll keep to my collection of LP's & CD's thanks as they sound 100 times better than a download

  • I bought this on cassette(remember those?) in 1985 and listened to it so many times that the tape started "schreeching"! Its amazing how music can just take you back.

  • @ApollyonCruiser i had it on tape as well but my car tape chewed it up:D

  • @ApollyonCruiser I went through 3 or 4 copies of this time, played them until they completely fell apart.

  • I have Alf on vinyl still and listen to it often. This song is so beautiful.

  • @lisa3eb I have the album on LP as well it's great to play vinyl it's like going back to the best time in music & the LP sounds better than the CD 100%

  • @acctim100 My meager vinyl collection is my most prized possesion. CD and mp3 do not do music justice. There is nothing like the crackle and pop of a record on the turntable, but there is also the ritual of pulling the album out of the sleeve and dropping the needle onto it. The art of listening to music is taken for granted these days.

  • @lisa3eb I'm seriously thinking of going back to vinyl. I do miss an actual record player for some reason. Don't know exactly what it is. When I first heard the whole "Alf" release, I was blown away. I still love it.

  • This is her best solo song, period. Comparable to Midnight and Mr. Blue from her Yazoo years. Alf is the greatest.

  • I love this song-first heard it 10 years ago when I was 14-that was when my love affair with 80's music began, as I was looking for an alternative to all the rubbish music around at that time-10 years later and I still love this song as much as I did when I bought the vinyl from Scope charity shop in Mare Street with my weekly pocket money...ahh the soundtrack of my life...

  • True Class trancends any number of years....... Simon Cowell hang your head in shame

  • excellent

  • brings back the youth club days with ya GF and smooching on dance floor..LOOL

    and 20+ years later happly married etc..

  • I will never forget this song all those years ago......I fell in love with this song and it bacame a backdrop to my life and move to London aged 17......what a time that was and hearing this song takes me back to a magnificent time in my life....this woman has so much talent and is still very under rated in my opinion.....WOW WOW WOW !

    A haunting sound from a remarkable talent....long may she go on singing....enjoy people :-)

  • this is it! it doesnt get any better!!! top class vocals great tune! close your eyes & your back in the day! nostalgia aint wot it used to be!!!!

  • love her voice when she lets rip. expressive

  • this shouldve been a chart hit!!!!!

  • if my life had a soundtrack this would be it!

  • beautiful song i was only nineteen when this song was played met a girl marrid five children still love song and still love the girl

  • This is something that reminds me of a girl i never got. I haven't played the album for years, only minute ago I suddenly remembered a phrase of this song:

    Save the ticking of a clock

    whose hands are sweeping past its face.

    thanks for posting this song.

  • I have always loved this woman - and this song was always one of my favourites. Has bittersweet meaning now - since my husband died a couple of years ago ...... nevertheless it is still a hauntingly beautiful song from a beautiful lady.

  • I'm so sorry about your loss

  • @smazamataz I haven't all stuff by her completed yet ..but yes, quite true ! she sounds incredibly well with a songs i know. And the first I mean her early songs both with V. Clarke since 82 up to 84 ; i'd call them as pure masterpiece.

  • @smazamataz music is so powerful, and its effects are timeless...this song and the music is so haunting, and when you mentioned your loss, I burst into tears. God Bless.

  • My sisters and I recorded this song on video in the year 1985 (of Dutch television). But we played the video untill it was no longer fit to vieuw it. Met andere woorden we hebben hem grijs gedraaid. Ik heb die tape nog (van Topop), Alison, Moyet die For you only playbackt maar er loopt een stevige dubelle witte band doorheen, dus dat bespaar ik jullie (hoewel de Topop-versie een duidelijke stoned-Moyet-versie biedt! groetjesxxx

  • I remember this song from when I was a kid, truly amazing!

  • amazing song,20 odd years on,and it can still reduce me to tears
