Love her voice and all of the songs that she ever sang, but this one is one of the best. What an amazing lyrics and music. Such an amazing song from the 80s, our teens and young adulthood, brings back so many incredible memories and makes me so nostalgic. Get chills every time I hear this song. Amazing.
I love Alison and Dawn together here. I first discovered this song literally 30 years ago working at Macy's in Palm Beach, FL. Every time this video came on, I had to stop what I was doing and watch.
I've said it before and I will say it again. The whole vid is good but to me the best bits are seeing Alison Moyet trying to keep a straight face and just failing at it. It's watching her face go from "Keep it together, keep it together!!" to "Sod this I can't, I give up" that make me giggle It should go without being said that her singing is brilliant.
Dawn French is one of those people you laugh at before they’ve even done anything … Gene Wilder was another and of course the master , the late great Rik Mayall
This takes me back OH to be young again.. Good song remember dancing to it in London Heaven Night club. And the video is still funny after all those years..

When she said that you were through I thought that there was Nothing that I could do Just because she ran right here Doesn't mean I interfered Now I'm wondering If we can feel the same 'Cause she keeps whispering your name She keeps on whispering your name Like she's just waiting She once told me how she felt Didn't just want me To hear it from someone else There were unknowns she couldn't know But she hoped you two would grow And when you didn't She was brought to me in pain And she keeps whispering your name She keeps on whispering your name Like she's just waiting If it's just a little fling A simple thing I'll try not to pretend If it's just for jealousy She's using me That might be hard to mend Oh what else can I do But try to give her More than she got from you And when she wakes up suddenly And she says your name to me I'll just hope it's force of habit And not need 'Cause she keeps whispering your name She keeps on whispering your name Like she's just waiting Oh tell me what is fair When nothing's wrong and She just stares Like she's just waiting
First time I have heard this song. I wouldn't even have recognized her in this. I've been to many concerts, some of life long favourite bands, but it was the Alison Moyet concert that decades later still stands out as an absolute favourite. Her music is astounding. Now to go look for more stuff I've not yet heard.

1994...oh those days... Ow to be young again.. Dancing to this song completely of my head. Loving every one. An in those days a E would last you all night till early mornings.. I wish i could go back for one night an re live that night.. I think we actually ended up in Brighton. We left club drive down had early morning swim.. Then stayed the night an went to the ZAP CLUB.. OH WHAT MEMORIES
Love this video and Alison Moyet is phenomenal. I think there was nod to Alison in an episode of Vicar of Dibley. Geraldine was on the radio and a fan asked for her autograph thinking she was Alison Moyet!
Holy cow. Such a great song and what a voice . Moyet belts it out and I as a gay man fall in love with this formidable lesbian every time I listen to this track. Great art is greater than the artist that purveys it ; that's how it becomes timeless and universal .
One of my top 10 favorite songs of all time.

Actually, this song doesn't come from the 80s.. it was released in 1994 😊
@@81StrangeFruit didn’t realize that. Was one big blur of amazing music at the time. Thanks for correction. 😀👍
this song is from 1983 originally, by jules shear. the 1994 version is a cover@@81StrangeFruit

Alison moyet looks amazing now and what a beautiful voice she as got ❤
Best song ever from Alison Moyet ❤
I have always loved Alison Moyet, stunning voice, her range is fantastic. And this song she really reminds me of Dusty. Great video
Her voice is truly one of a kind. Absolutely incredible.

Thats the one , we clearly have different senses of humour , try to enjoy life you only get one
Alison moyet what an amazing singer and voice such power should get the recognition Alison deserves
2024 anyone? Cuz she keeps whispering your name 🎉❤
I always come back to this. Such a great song and hilarious video!
Yes KEY is coming soon ;)
Yes she keeps whispering yr name and taking yr fame !!!
2 Amazing British Talents - Impossible to Fault !!!
I've always loved this version by Alison since the first time I heard it, the original version is shocking, this is just great!
Brilliant song and video. I love Alison and her music. Definitely an '80's icon
Alison eyes are mesmerizing and hypnotizing!!😎🎸😘😘😘
This takes me back
OH to be young again..
Good song remember dancing to it in London Heaven Night club. And the video is still funny after all those years..
Haha. I used to go to Heaven on straight nights back in the early 80s. First laser lights in UK. Great times!
Incredible voice, underated in my opinion.
The original DRUM AND BASS BRILLIANT x
So wish Alison would do a greatest hits concert would be fantastic
WHAT A VOICE! Just fantastic.
She puts a lot of soul in this song. Probably the only song after "raindancing" having so much emotions.

When she said that you were through
I thought that there was
Nothing that I could do
Just because she ran right here
Doesn't mean I interfered
Now I'm wondering
If we can feel the same
'Cause she keeps whispering your name
She keeps on whispering your name
Like she's just waiting
She once told me how she felt
Didn't just want me
To hear it from someone else
There were unknowns she couldn't know
But she hoped you two would grow
And when you didn't
She was brought to me in pain
And she keeps whispering your name
She keeps on whispering your name
Like she's just waiting
If it's just a little fling
A simple thing
I'll try not to pretend
If it's just for jealousy
She's using me
That might be hard to mend
Oh what else can I do
But try to give her
More than she got from you
And when she wakes up suddenly
And she says your name to me
I'll just hope it's force of habit
And not need
'Cause she keeps whispering your name
She keeps on whispering your name
Like she's just waiting
Oh tell me what is fair
When nothing's wrong and
She just stares
Like she's just waiting

Fantastic voice, deserved more... great video
Jules Shear!! What a song....:)
I love this song. Alison look lovely.
Now we are talking back to the best lc ❤🏴
When Alison looses it and starts laughing kills me every time lol 😆 🤣 😂
Alison perfect as ever brilliant singer.
Great song, great artist, greatly upstaged by a great comedian. Morecambe and Wise must be chuckling in their graves.
The lyrics here are amazing!
...despite being given homosexual overtones.
I played this over and over when i was at university until i wore out the cassette. Great song.

Love this video and Alison Moyet is phenomenal.
I think there was nod to Alison in an episode of Vicar of Dibley. Geraldine was on the radio and a fan asked for her autograph thinking she was Alison Moyet!
Yes remember that now
love this video love both these ladies
iI grew up with some pretty awesome music...
Just the best ever
French and Moyet - flippin funny sketch! - Am sure Dawn has some true hidden vocal singing talents, would love to hear them.
Read her autobiography... she really doesn't 😂
An exceptionally talented singer.
I love Alison Moyet and this is one of her best songs. It’s a great cover, better than the original. And a really funny video.
I didn’t know it was a cover!

30 years old an still great song an video
Einfach unvergänglich❤
I love music alison moyet s❤❤❤❤ portugal❤❤❤❤
Great video from a very gifted lady.
The greatest song ever made
I agree!!!
written by Jules Shear and his version is still the best. This is just full of Pet Shop Boys clatter and ridiculous synth strings...
@@flooberbloob I agree that the Jules Shear original is the best--and might, in fact, be "the greatest song ever made", as Danny implied.
@@gdouglas999 not sure about "greatest" comment as Jules has many many great songs that I love.
@@scottytherich I do as well, was just going along with the heat of the moment at the time.

Alison Moyet isn't a lesbian.
@@talshayar4279 😳
She’s not a lesbian.
@@dubmoyet 😳
excellent tune !
I've done this song in drag. It was a blast.
Proove it put vid up
The humour in the video. Just awful!
Alison Moyet has done every performance EVER in drag.
Great song, even more terrific video!!
No - comedy. :)
Oh dear
Dawn French AND Alison Moyet? This was major hit in San Francisco when it first released.
Alison and Dawn reunited seven years after "Love Letters"
I was the thousandth "like"---and I actually love it. But I still love the Jules Shear original even more.
Ja ja ja 😂😅😄
Chusco y divertido la Alison moyet en plenos 33 años
You can whisper my name lol amazing love ya headway Nottingham UK x
Love it. Great version. Sad to learn of the death of ignatious Jones.
Just Magic
love this song,the video is so funny love both ladies
I love this song
Alison has a beautiful gift this is a good time listen to all her songs with all the badness going on in this world
This wold be great dance track mixed by a dj. Anthem
I just love the older tunes xxx
My student days; collecting glasses in the Brief Encounter & flirting with the guys 😊
I watched her perform this song in Bournmouth in the 90's and she said it was really hard work for a singer, all those lyrics!
Stunning
Amazing song
Love this ❤
Fabulous ....I love this tune....Its bubbly...A feel good factor....X :)
Tune!
great singer
I adore dawn French and Jennifer Saunders and I adore alison moyeh soooo amazing you make me laugh soooooo much
Beautiful song
i love this song
Luv it.. Allison singing a Pet Shop Boys sounding automated rythym beat machine. Luv it..
Wrong - this is a generic sounding 90s pop-dance production - the PSBs don't sound like that, they are more original.
It was actually her former Yazzo partner Vince Clarke
How funny is this video and what a super talented singer Alison Moyet is ❤❤❤❤
Not funny in the slightest pal.
@@petemitchel5622 NOTHING involving the ghastly Dawn French is funny.
