About this song

"Tainted Love" by Soft Cell is a cover of a 1964 song by Gloria Jones. The synth-driven track features a catchy bassline played by David Ball and Marc Almond's distinctive vocals. The song's success in the 80s can be attributed to its unique blend of new wave and synthpop elements. Fun fact: Soft Cell recorded the song in just one day!
