[stevo89121]

Gloria Jones sang the original.

[DPAce456]

@stevo89121 I like this version, Its nice hearing it from a male prospective.

[lpc0615]

I love this song I heard this song on the radio the other day I just never knew the name of the artist. I miss 80's music and 90's music as well.

[kim66003]

1:42 LOL !! Has he burned his bum? or did he get a fright?

[Townsieboy]

@kim66003 one of those spotted human like creatures knocked his can of pop off the fridge and it scared him :)

[neuerVersuch1]

most of the best music in the 80s was made by gay people.

[roddersis1]

originals are alway sthe best! maryln manson is a neek!

[flazzgta2]

This is fucking gay. Marilyn Manson's version is much better just like the rest of the comments say.

[neuerVersuch1]

@flazzgta2 most of the best music in the 80s was made by gay people.

[Foolishpleazure]

@flazzgta2 Marilyn Mansons version SUCKS.....its soumds like hes tryin to sing with a mouthful of JIZZ!!!!!!

[DPAce456]

@flazzgta2  Manson destroyed this song

[0live0wire0]

i can't believe i say this but Manson's better. This 80's sound is so gay

[ghostrider5378]

@0live0wire0 Let's put you back in the 80s now. THIS WAS THE SHIT BACK THEN. These guys were THE MAN. Of course it sounds weird now, because everything else sounds gay as shit now. No offense.

[0live0wire0]

@ghostrider5378 agreed most of todays music sounds supergay. But this here is just 80's pop and i personally would go for the rock (Guns n roses, Motley Crue) this was the shit back then. The song is good but i don't like that synth sound.

[ghostrider5378]

@0live0wire0 I agree with you completely there.

[TwiZtidPhsycho]

nothing beats a classic but mansons version is better

[TheDoylen]

manson's version is better

[weeali62]

omg this brings back good memories of my teen disco's

[Jellybelly0410]

LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT ~ always first up to 'dance' to it. Nearly 40 now but remember getting dressed up to go to the theatre in Oxford ~ what an experience and didn't they give us some funny looks in MacDonalds afterwards!

[dxarmy94]

I know, I know. I've seen the greatest one hit wonders or 80s.

[roosevelthighschool]

Clever way they made this video.

[dxarmy94]

I know, I know. I've seen the greatest one hit wonders of 80s.

[ITILII]

written and produced by Ed Cobb from the 50's group, the Four Lads

[WildDiscoDance]

some say that marilyn mansons one is like darher and shit..but..i think this one is darker,cause..i cant explain it very well,it just is,to me anyway

[JHits23]

Dope! :)

[HUBERTOxD]

The best for disco :D

[Grungadin]

I never realized just how big my bed is.

[zwinky334]

my fualt soft cell does use instruments oh yea and how is soft cell gonna get reocrd sells if he doesent get popular i know at least 78 people of more who has never heard of soft cell.but all of those people know who exacly who manson is and they all bought his albums BCUZ HES POPULAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!

[taylerfxgirl3]

this video scares me... but i love the song

[MattKaye93]

My dad went to school with the lead singer of this band.

[1RomaFilms1]

I really like this song this song rocks me .......I listened first in the movie 13 going 30 ........

[dxarmy94]

Why did these guys copy Rihanna??

[quaksi4]

@dxarmy94 LOL! Ahem, *she* covered *them*. Get it? =)

[CarlyAnne2and20]

@dxarmy94 you can't be serious? :o aww. that's sad. =/

[dxarmy94]

@CarlyAnne2and20 @quaksi4 AHAHAHAAAHAAHAAAAH!!!! I totally played you guyz!!! You think I didn't see that it had "80s" in the title?!?

[ninetiesbaby10]

@dxarmy94 I hope you are joking. But if youre not here is a history lesson...this song was orginally recorded by Gloria Jones in 1964, then covered by Soft Cell in 1982, it was later covered by marilyn manson and the pussycat dolls...Rihanna sampled it in 2006 for her song "SOS"...14 years after this version was recorded.

[Eoinposse]

@ninetiesbaby10 Last Shadow Puppets covered SOS in 2008.

[ninetiesbaby10]

@Eoinposse SOS or tainted love?? 

[Eoinposse]

@ninetiesbaby10 SOS

[ninetiesbaby10]

@Eoinposse oh ok...why on earth would anyone cover SOS, i mean it was an oky song but it wasnt that great

[FantasticalLoser]

i dont like mansions version its creepy.

[jkrb05]

@FantasticalLoser very much agreed

[happyharry3079]

Just some positive feed back for you. This song is my favorite song thank you so much for sharing it. :<) I do have this on a very rare 12" vinal and it has only ever been played twice. this song brings back so very very many wonderful memories for me. Thank you. xxxxxxx

[LilSwft]

there should be a Tainted Roll

[RussianSoviet5445]

@LilSwft Thanks for the idea, I'll piss off alot of people! : )

[aradisic]

This is a remake of the original song from 1976 for all who didn't know...

[xgp23killedU]

haha that singer looks like peewee herman

[DiexToxSurvive]

i like Marilyn Manson but nothing can beat the Soft Cell version :D

[cavaliersfan1001]

marilyn manson is 100000000000000000000 way times better than this

[FantasticalLoser]

@cavaliersfan1001 your kidding.....!

[cavaliersfan1001]

@FantasticalLoser this version is slow and boring and im into the 80's music i like guns and roses and their new band velvet revolver

[dessyser]

Sorry my English

[oPernulle]

the 80's are so much my kind of music :)

love this song so much!!

[MrThrower13]

i am from greece . here people are racists they hate gay people and they hate black people immigrants the jews . they say europeans are corrupted and that drugs are legal in europe . and they are getting worse they talk against democracy and even science .

[MTCatman]

Great song, thanks!

[thiago6651]

This song are present in grand theft auto san andreas!!!

[thiago6651]

Esta musica esta presente no gta san andreas!!

[kcirish]

Does anyone know the name of the male model/actor in this video?

[Fuchsss]

This is not the original song.

[JonnyMonster91]

Thus video is weird as hell, but the song kicks ass.

[zwinky334]

marilyns remake is wayyyyyyyyyyyy better

[GothicBerryBella]

@zwinky334 Marilyn is a wannabe that doesn't knows a bit bout music, you should learn from real music.

[zwinky334]

@GothicBerryBella soft cell could fuck my nuts marilyn manson is wayyyyy better soft cell version is wayy to slow and boring

[MaeNotEast]

@zwinky334  LOLLOLLOL! Well you've just given the world a sample of what Marilyn Manson's fans are like - ignorant, short-sighted and just plain not too bright. Just because U can listen to Manson's version all day, don't ASSume everybody else can. Have a great day!

[dessyser]

@MaeNotEast Well, there really are fans of MM really ignorant, like @ zwinky334, but not all are like that. I am a fan and I admit that although I like the cover and the artist, Marilyn Manson's version might not be the best one. It is a matter of taste and culture.

[GothicBerryBella]

@zwinky334 Very intelligent argument. lol Reply when your brain gets smarter enough. ;)

[profile1]

@GothicBerryBella "When your brain gets smarter enough..." Oh the irony.

[GothicBerryBella]

@profile1 You need a dictionary!

[11danus]

@zwinky334

HA!

[dipton95]

@zwinky334 thts bullshit. this is amazin. marilyns is crap

[zwinky334]

@dipton95 marilyn mansons version is better bcuz soft cell version slow and boring mansons version u can llisten to it all day

[GothicBerryBella]

@zwinky334 Oh... God... that's the only answer you've got?

[zwinky334]

@GothicBerryBella soft cell wat has he done

[GothicBerryBella]

@zwinky334 Answer: Real music, Real Voice.

Unlike Marilyn Manson That his ""music"" is made by synthesizers "HIS" voice that is fixed by a computer, and the instruments in the song of "tainted love" are not even real instruments darling. Now I will answer a question for you What has Marilyn Manson Done? Nothing productive, just supporting sexual and violence in teen audience and a correction: The version from Marilyn is actually slower, so you better improve your ears and listen to the tempo.

[edtri19]

@GothicBerryBella haha you owned that person.

[zwinky334]

@GothicBerryBella ok soft cell doesent suck marilyn manson is just better. shows how famous soft cell is i never heard of him in till this poped up

[kronzomg]

@zwinky334 You fail mate.

[GothicBerryBella]

@zwinky334 Just better because of what? Why do I have to prove you that this 80's band is more famous than marilyn manson? It doesn't matter! You choose what do you listen too! Miley Cirus is famous as hell unlike an symphonic orchestra that makes real music! The difference is that Manson GOT the money to make himself be recognized. That's when a band stops making music and just becomes commercial...Just for money. They sit around doing NOTHING and you pay them 18 dollars for their piece of shit

[zwinky334]

@GothicBerryBella it does matter about the fame soft cell sold 3 million on there 7th album manson sold 5millin on his 7th album

[GothicBerryBella]

@zwinky334 Ok, your point is...? You didn't read the last post?

Is your loose, you are the one that choose to waist your money, while they sit there doing nothing. When you can tell me the rhythm of the bass-guitar in the music from marilyn manson then you tell me! Because I cannot recognize the instruments in his music, why is that? because it isn't real music.

[profile1]

@GothicBerryBella I'm not even going to bother with this, I wouldn't be surprised if someone told you to wear a helmet just to get your mail.

[GothicBerryBella]

@profile1 Is ok, you don't have to keep wasting your life listening to that song just to tell me that, I already know the answers. Just think of it the positive side, you've learned something new. Just don't be so cocky into a subject you don't have knowledge of.

[profile1]

@GothicBerryBella why you mad though? lol

[GothicBerryBella]

@profile1 Ok... how do you know if I'm mad or not? I'm simply pointing out our cowardliness and your pride for not accepting when you are wrong. Not my fault that you don't like it. I just say the things the way they are if you don't like it, well suck it up dear. welcome to youtube!

[zwinky334]

@zwinky334 cuz u dont know music wtf u dont know instrument he plays or his band plays soft cell doesent play shit AT ALL!!!!!! and it is about the record sells how is some gonna say ur good when u didnt sell shit marilyn manson way more popular then soft cell.people say that rap is'nt music bcuz it doesent have instruments you cant say that about marilyn manson bcuz he does use instuments. soft cell doesent use instruments so hes not music?

[ahlabone]

All we need is Divine

[Romanticanime4ever]

it's like a nightmare origional of the Last of the American Girls video, or the latter is a horribly scene - kid imbued version of this one. Or you could just turn off the sound a pretend its a scene from Doctor Who.

[hookuspookus529]

to answer your question marylin manson is a weirdo 

[hookuspookus529]

couldn't stand this song when i first heard it , but now it fucking rocks

[gootgurl]

awesome video and song. please don't ruin this song by mixing it with rap.

[cozmoz365]

@gootgurl Don't give people ideas!

[gootgurl]

@cozmoz365

Sorry, but I just noticed last night that a lot of people did already sang this song over and over, but Soft Cell is the best!

[BananaJSSI]

@gootgurl I agree. Original is always best. I bought this album back in 1981. This was a big hit back then.,

[gootgurl]

@BananaJSSI

I am so happy dat i was a teen in the 80"s.

[BananaJSSI]

@gootgurl It was indeed a fun time for sure. To bad the decade went so fast, sigh.

[icedboiii]

the firm!!! amazing film

[blestiney]

everyone in life has had a tainted love. thats why i love the song, as i've been there b4

[Whahli]

[bubblebath934]

@Whahli does it really? If so I don't know how it does.

[Whahli]

@Whahli *have

[hulandron1]

Muy buena para ser de los ochenta.

[hulandron1]

[edwardsbella1000]

[Ramosner]

Lembrei-me de alguém!

Saudosos anos 80 mas que me remetem à lembranças atuais! ;)

[mongenator1]

[LisaSimpson80]

@mongenator1 The Pussycat dolls version is worse.

[NOUFGT]

What is this crap?

I look for a classic and I get an 80's rape of it?

[jpinga1971]

That singer couldn't hide his gay if he put a bag over his head

[frylockkilla]

Fuck Soft Cell and Marilyn Manson!

The original by Gloria Jones will always be the best!!!

[spadehatesscrewtube]

its cool and all to be a couple of hot gay guys, but ya dont have to demonize women.

[hypnodysc]

Marc Almond there.

[mikeypoo86]

marilyn manson made this song hot.

[pramboy09]

@mikeypoo86 bollocks

[KlaykidReal]

@mikeypoo86 By hot you mean an apocalypse of a song that sounded like someone took a giant shit in the record and should never be heard again, then I agree.

[TantheMan223]

So this is what happened in the 80's.....cool.

[LetsBurnGoats]

@TantheMan223 Yeah, all that acid really worked wonders in the visual design department.

[TantheMan223]

@LetsBurnGoats Now all we got is people dancing sexually in music videos....where did the magic go?

[MultiDaniel144]

[Vassilisbillio]

David Guetta made Sexy Bitch tune from this

[EvaSalvi]

Great song, "I'm-on-acid"-like video.

[madburger321]

[spacerpg]

This song only serves to remind us how much better the Manson cover is.

[AbsolutTonko]
