rdf:langString "For You Only" is a song by British singer-songwriter Alison Moyet, which was released in 1985 as the fourth and final single from her debut studio album Alf. For its release as a single, a remixed version of the song was created, which was named the "New Version". The song written by Moyet, Steve Jolley and Tony Swain, and produced by Jolley and Swain. Originally, when CBS suggested releasing a fourth single from Alf, Moyet spoke against the idea and suggested she record a cover of "That Ole Devil Called Love" in order to give fans something new. Her version of the song was released in March 1985, becoming a big hit, including in the UK where it reached No. 2. After this, CBS later decided to release "For You Only" as a single in Europe and America. For its release as a single, "For You Only" was remixed and partially re-recorded to create a new version. The song was a success in Germany, peaking at No. 7 in late 1985. The song was also an airplay hit in New Zealand. A music video was created to promote the single, featuring shots of Moyet sitting at an empty bar and walking the street outside. Moyet also performed the song for Dutch TV at the Platengala Nationaal and on the German Peter's Pop Show.
