Only Yazoo is a greatest hits album released by English synth-pop duo Yazoo in 1999. At the point of its release, the band had been broken up for over 15 years.
The collection includes the best bits of their two studio albums – Upstairs at Eric's and You and Me Both as well as non-album tracks like "State Farm". The album also included a number of new remixes that were featured on re-issued singles.
The album's title is a play on their biggest single, "Only You". In the US and Canada, however, where the band were known as Yaz, the album was called The Best Of, and was released by Reprise Records, like Sire, also owned by Warner Music Group.
