The group Yaz had a hit in the 1982 with a song called “Situation” now the name Yaz is being marketed as a feminine contraception pill. The group was known as Yazoo in Britain but was shortened to Yaz in the U.S. The keyboard player Vince Clarke left Depeche Mode to join Yaz and then departed to form Erasure. Posted above is the video to “Situation”.
How do you think the members of this group now feel about their band name?
Maybe their video for their version of “Only You” was an early 1980s hint to the answer to your question: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_0IKmq75UQ
The “Only You” video answered my question. Thank you!
