Alison Moyet's debut solo album,  'Alf' . Alison supports Southend United Football Club and can be occasionally found in the West Stand at Roots Hall. Part of the video for "Is This Love?" was filmed at the ground. In addition, the song "Blue" - originally released as a B-side, but later re-recorded and used as the theme tune of the British TV series Playing the Field - is the singer's ode to her love of football and of Southend United.
Recently, Alison Moyet has been spending her time with her husband and two children.

With the future still shining bright, Alison sees her twilight years as a chance for more music, more acting and maybe even some painting.
