Great song originally released in 1964 by Gloria Jones which I had the pleasure of meeting and talking to her for about 20 minutes

I am glad you said it sounded slower, because I was thinking the same thing. I never would have guessed the name of this group,but I know the song.

Tainted Love was originally a Soul song Fun fact is that it was a B side of the song My Bad Boy is coming home Soft Cells version was a masterpiece of a cover for 2 reason First it is just an incredible version giving it new life and second it fits in to the concept and narrative of Soft Cells album Non Stop Erotic Cabaret Marilyn Manson also covered this song One sad note Gloria Jone was diving the car that hit a tree and Marc Bolan’s died as a result Gloria played and sang on many T Rex albums and they share a son Gloria also had another hit in 60’s called Heartbeat and that was covered by Dusty Springfield

@jessem470 Wow I had no idea about her being involved with the car crash or them sharing a son. That is so sad. I appreciate you telling me that, Jesse ❤️😪

Hi Sue, this is a later remix of the song, which is why it is slower than the original version. It was a rereleased in the UK & was a hit all over again. I never saw Soft Cell live, but I have seen Marc Almond live, as a guest singer on a Jools Holland tour. He did of course sing Tainted Love live, which I have on CD. The original by Grace Jones (Marc Bolan’s ex partner) is not anywhere as good as the Soft Cell version, which took the song to a whole higher level. The Supremes song was actually the B side of the UK single & mixed together for the 12 inch single. Have a listen to What by Soft Cell.

@@playitagainsue The original wa part of the “Northern Soul” sound, which was big in the clubs in Northern England in the 1960s. It was never a hit single in the UK.

Fantastic song ! .. Loved it from the first time I heard it, and it still sounds good after many, many listens .. Not a big fan of this particular video though, as for me it takes away from rather than adds to the song .. Even for the 80s, it's a bit weird.🙄 .. I like Gloria Jones' soulful original, but Soft Cell's arrangement, and production, and Marc Almond's vocals take it to a new level IMHO.

@wayne_twentyfive I agree, Wayne. It is an odd video. Sometimes videos can add to or at least compliment the song but this video doesn't do either. But the song is very well performed and produced. I haven't heard Gloria's version and look forward to hearing it but Soft Cell's version is a classic 🤩♥️
