  • dedicated to my narcist ex..by the way: great band, great singer, she rocks :D

  • imelda, i love your style and music but this one here, just doesnt sound as cool as the original version of it! some songs sound better left alone. how about an oldies cover? that would be awsome.

  • @zbstr611 uh. the original of this is by gloria jones, recorded in 1964. isn't that enough of an oldie for you?

  • @zbstr611 If you haven't heard the album ROCK 'N' ROLL PARTY: HONORING LES PAUL by Jeff Beck, there are tons of old songs on it and Imelda May sings lead on many of the songs on it.

    Also, as another user said, "Tainted Love" was originally recorded by an artist way back in the 60's which would make this tune an oldie.

  • @badfinger848 Hi, Thanks for the heads up. Brilliant album have just down loaded the 22 track version. Some fabulous stuff on it. Listen to Becksy doing Sleep Walk!!

    Terry.

  • @alicenwonderland745 i did, i saw her a T in the Park, she was awesome this was the only song i actually knew she sang but she was just so awesome it didn't matter

  • things should a be hotter..

  • Comment removed

  • not as good as dave philips/hot rod gangs version.

  • I've just heard her interview on NPR and a sample of her music and I must say that she is fabulous....great voice.

  • Patricia Day makes Imelda May look like a hack....

  • @Robeedle Please link!

  • she's a badass. 'nuff said.

  • THE LIBERTIES BELLE............;-)

  • Notice that after 3:00 when she put down the mic and look like a humble girl again HAHA

  • Brilliant cover

  • Great Version, I've added this to my FB groupd dedicated to covers "The Guilty Version of the Cover Version"

  • "Rock a Billy" on Imelda!

  • Great version, I love the Gloria Jones original and this is right up there but the best version ever has to be Dave Phillips & The Hot Rod Gang recorded in 1983, the original Rockabilly version that I suspect Imelda must know well!!

  • Comment removed

  • awesome!

  • Cool fantastic smart!! Rockin! Imelda May is going to take over!! I just saw her for the first time live and she killed it! Brought it back to life! And killed it again! I DIG IT!!!!!!!!!!

  • ^^cool

  • Rockabilly yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • She is amazing! She looks like she genuinely loves what she's doing... something that doesn't happen very often!

  • Great version!! Can't wait to see her live tomorrow night @ the Horseshoe in Toronto. Move aside Wanda Jackson (love 'ya though)...Imelda is the new reigning queen of Rockabilly!

  • Best reason to like this? To me, music is either sex or riot. The best songs would like this one make me feel both at the same time, and that is a rare treat for a musiclover like me if you don't take some time to find your kicks yourself.

  • Daryl played a blinder of a guitar solo there!

  • Splendid. Full of swing and rockabilly-esque feel.

  • она прекрасна!

  • original came out in 1966 Gloria Jones - a Wigan Casino classic - Marc Almond was a regular at the Casino

  • just going to like this before i watch it......

  • Wait a minute, is this a cover from bad religion - tainted love? :S Same lyrics

  • @alredor It says tainted love in the title.... But the bad religion version is also a cover. Original is from the 60's

  • @fionamb83 no way, the original is by soft cell's 80s

  • @amejia999 That is the definitive version i think! Def the one you think of. But that was in the 80's and gloria jones version was in the 60's. So unless gloria jones went back to the future with doc and marty, or maybe invernted her own flux capacitor, heard the soft cell 80's and went back to the 60's to cover tainted love I think hers was the original!

  • @fionamb83 yeah, youre right

  • I think they deserved a bigger applause.

  • i think they deserved a bigger applause

  • I love Imelda May, I must say. In fact, I'm writing a story based on her song "Big Bad Handsome Man". But alas, I prefer Marilyn Manson's version on this song. I feel like he really ruined it for many artists. He gave it such an edge and I think he put emphasis where was needed, growling when called for and eerily whispering in others. While of course that's his style, I feel like she held back when she should have screamed, which is something I normally like about her, that raw power she has.:/

  • Love, love, love! You're the best!!!

  • Her style is freaken awesome

  • @Robbieboy98 OMG Yes... her style totally is awesome... If she was any hotter our heads might explode!

  • @Robbieboy98 , What style is this.

  • @Leowen2 This is Rockabilly.

  • Wow :D I looove hr interpretation!

  • Great stuff!

  • Greatstuff!

  • UNBELIEVABLE COVER. Thank you from California

  • de locos!!!

  • she looks like the nanny to me. :)

  • Now that's a band

  • surprised i actually liked it! Thumbs up!:)

    keep it up

  • Imelda and Band are absolutely brilliant!! A breath of sweet, fresh air.

  • guitar player looks a little like michael madsen

  • and jedward are more famous because??

  • @xxclidiggyxx Who is jedward? Should I know them?

  • @xmissjemx no lol They are twins who performed on the UK's X Factor. They are reality stars in the UK but not many people besides maybe anglophiles would know them in the states.

  • @skaterboi0066 Ah. That makes sense. Thanks!

  • @xmissjemx as said already their Irish twins who are famous because of the x factor...Imelda May has way more talent than them but is unfortunately less well known than them...

  • @xxclidiggyxx I just found her from a video someone posted on twitter. And I'm glad I did!!! She's great. :)

  • <333333 thats all i can say

  • Good version.

    In general though she has an unoriginal style.

    No time for this music.

  • @faustovillagomez

    Let's hear you do better

  • @faustovillagomez

    Well, fuck off then.

  • mejor que la original....con todo respeto!!! tssss wow..wow...wow!!

  • Classic good true talent, incredibly beautiful, incredible style. Artists like her are what music needs now. Along with fellow European talent Caro Emerald she's keeping the spirit of what makes music great alive. Both ladies deserve to be bigger than the majority of the Top 40 crapola on Pop radio right now !

  • finally a new and fresh look in music may she have a long and wonderful career she rocks no ?'s asked

  • @cully van . I think the only person who is mouthing it is yourself : "sounds like the sort of thing....." sounds more like the sorta thing that Cowell would say on the Eggs Fractured .

    Have you eva been on a crooz ship my dear ?? Its all Boy Bands/Men Bands / one man and his karaoke machine who replicate "popular songs" note 4 note and chord 4 chord .

    Now where did I put that A-Z guide to The Azores ......

  • great take in this song

  • @cullyvan twat.

  • @messiah591 away and fuck yourself.

  • enfin une vrai chanteuse rockabilly!!!! du pure bonheur

  • é uma Amy Winehouse versão 2.0!

  • @claudiao666 Lol nao compares, ela é muito mais gira que a amy

  • <~~~ New fan here after I saw her do this cover on morning telly here in Oz. She RoCkS!

  • ive been her fan for a year already & still am (:

  • Wow!!!!! She jams. And the band is great too. I hope she comes to south Florida

  • Imelda divine!

    

  • Man

    I still can't watch VEVO videos on YouTube.... ugh they won't play

    It's usually the music I really want to hear.

  • she's the best thing arrived to rock 'n' roll from Wanda Jackson

  • I like this cover because it is another side to the song not the same song in the same way again.

  • @spectertracy

    Try the Dave Phillips and the Hot Rod gang version, who first did it in a rockabilly style in the early 1980's, totally blew the European independent charts apart for months.

  • the 2 people who disliked must be deaf shes amazing

  • so 1 person has no taste in music.

  • @mooooogrl Waaaaaw me 2!!!!

  • shes too sexy!!!!

  • AWESOME

  • FANTASTIC SOUND GREAT BAND REAL MUSIC AND THEY CAN REAL PLAY PURE PROFESSIONAL GIVE ME MORE

  • She is great!!!

  • This woman should be given the honour of kicking the shit out Westlife live on TV!

  • @kenswe thats a stupid thing to say.. they perform different genres of music...imelda may is amazing but so are westlife in they're own right.

  • Brought down the house at the Beck tribute to Les Paul show with her rendition of Walkin in the Sand, keeping the rockabilly real here too. The slap upright bass player is amazing too, although what's up with the dyed hair?

  • OMG amazing voice and charisma.  Great Band. Ps the drummer comes from the same town as me !!!!! Colne.......famous at last

  • @LCNowell The drummer is English....

  • awesome thanks 4 sharing she is amazaaazing!

  • saw her in 2010 as support for The Dandy Warhols - she was even better! but a little to loud ;)

  • Amazing performer, can't believe the views are so low?

  • rock it momma!

  • VEVO can suck my balls!

  • She's a very good live singer.. Not mad on their songs, but this is a very good cover.

  • nice to see a real double bass being played!

  • It would work better if youtube trolls were shot on sight.

  • beautiful......  :-D the real view from the last century

  • She is absolutely awesome fabulous looks, fabulous band, great Rockabilly style, the best music in a long time. May I wish her a long and fruitful career, we are crying out for professionals like this

  • Incredible! She is amazing and her band is awesome. At a loss to describe any further how good this performance is.

  • shes class

  • Imelda is fantastic, I adore this version of Tainted Love - this definitely needs more radio airplay at home - I love Mayhem but this is stellar.

  • Each to their own I suppose. I'm still glad she's doing what she's doing.

  • come on the Irish

  • I've said it before, and I'll say it again. She's so cool.
