You Gotta Say Yes to Another Excess is Yello's third album and was released in 1983. It was the last Yello album to feature founding member Carlos Peron.



The seeds of Euro-dance sown on Claro Que Si reached fruition on Yello's next record, naturally titled You Gotta Say Yes to Another Excess. There are fewer novelty synth tracks than before, those being replaced by a series of sleazy, deep-throated vocals on "I Love You," "Lost Again," "Heavy Whispers," and the title track. There are also a few exercises in worldbeat synth pop, with heavy percussion on the title track as well as the closing number, "Salut Mayoumba." Though Blank's production doesn't sound as consistently innovative as on the first two Yello records, that's probably due more to other synth pop groups catching up than any comedown on his part.

John Bush - All Music Guide



"Klänge voller 'Intelligenz, revolutionärer Ideen und Sinn für Humor'. 'You Gotta Say Yes To Another Excess' beschwört mit anarchischem Witz schwüle Dschungelatmosphärenn, den ein- samen Großstadt-Hero, olle Krimis und andere Klischees ais dem Leinwandleben: bis heute Yellos genialster Wurf." Rolling Stone 12 / 05: "Auf 'You Gotta Say Yes To Another Excess', dem stimmigsten Yello-Album und kommerziellen Durchbruch, tritt der ironische Humor stärker in den Vordergrund. Die davor immer etwas zu überladenen Stücke sind nun so rund, stimmig und doppelbödig wie der Smash- Hit "I Love You"."
