  • Im only 20 years old and this is one of my favorite songs.. If my friends heard me listening to this i would get flak like crazy.. But they can listen to their horrible mainstream music. I'll keep my soft cell thank you.

  • @Zachbro39 I was around 15 when this was released, I couldnt stand Soft Cell and hated everything about them! Funny now though, I cant get enough of this track. Say Hello, Wave Goodbye is another top tune.

  • @D000BY Haha for some reason i always rember hearing this song and flock of seaguls "I ran." Along with Sweet dreams from Eurythmics. Its so reminiscent of my younger days haha. And Say hello wave goodbye is deffinetly a good one.

  • My dad showed me this song about 2 years ago on xm radio in the car. I love it. <3

  • Reminds me of me as a young man. This was a hit back then (81?) at this popular club here in Chicago which incredibly enough IS STILL THERE! Neo's. Anyone remember it? I can still recall as if it were yesterday going there during hot steamy summer Chicago nights and going into the nice cool A/C, grabbing a rum and coke (my favorite then) and dancing the night away with my friends. Those were the days...

  • This song brings on so many emotions, on so many different levels.

  • @cpfan123456789

    Yikes! Really? I mean, its great that you eventually found such a great song, but damn! Going so long without it seems like torture!

  • yes its a tamla mowtown record but it doesnt matter

  • @4.27 = yay

  • Truely awesome song,1 of the best 12 inch records of it's time easily....

  • This song was way ahead of it's time. When I found out that it was from 1981 i couldn't believe it. I always thought that this song was from the 90's. Anyways great song. I first heard it in 1997.

  • @MegaBojan1993 This is actually a cover from a 1964 song...

  • I heard this song today at around 6 AM, completely dark, as I was driving fast down an empty street; it was very fitting; when I got home I looked it up.

  • One of my favorites in dancing BBC :)

  • ..snowed here !!... this is great to motivate me to shovel :) ..

  • I love marc almond and i love this song,his voice is incredible...ty for posting this..x

  • To all you people who say you never hear this version on the radio: This is the ONLY one I hear on the radio. I never hear the short one. Then again, this could be because where I live there's about four 80s radio stations. They all play extended versions of everything.

  • lol'd

  • They should have featured this version of Tainted Love on their album instead of the shorter edit, it's way better!

  • @Troyman021 the problem is it would take up half the the cd space lol

  • I LOVE THIS SONG!!

  • This song must have been playing in underground clubs for at least a decade. I miss all the goths & rockabillies & the rest of the 80s craziness.

  • Heard THIS version for the first time in the Doghouse in Kennington, fantastic, song and Pub

  • Love this song it reminds me as a kid of being in the gingerbread club. lol

  • This song is "The 80's" i like that you get a second lil song afterward you seldom hear on the radio. where did our love go. nice..

  • 29 people don't know where their tainted love went.

  • ..classic 80's hit

  • Did anyone see the movie "Cone Heads" where the daughter and one of her friends are singing this song in the car - Badly? That's all I can think of when I hear this great tune!!

  • ahhh, I remeber <3

  • baby, baby, baby where did our love go...nowhere it was all a dream.

  • Wooh This is my song=D Love this song

  • Ever so nostalgic.... ♥♥♥ ;)

  • @jwdub75 This song is bloody older than those two daft-warkers this ole tune would kick their stuffs ass anyday happy XXXth tainted love may those two get attacked by a pack of "SEX DWARFS"!!!

  • @jwdub75 Probably has something to do with the fact that this song came out in 1981, This song was uploaded in 2007, and Lady Gaga and Bieber's albums have both come out since then. If the internet existed and was accessible in 1981 as it is today, it would likely have over 300mil votes.

  • @jwdub75 Because the mankind sometimes is horrible!

  • @jwdub75 because not everyone has our taste of music. I am happy to live in a society where people can choose what they want to hear, and apparently more people want to hear those types of music more than these (not including justin bieber, since most of his views are from people who don't like hime, but thats an exception). Views are not a representation of how good something is, but of how many people want to see it. if you want to know how good something is, look at the like bar, not views.

  • PERFEITO!!

    I Love This =)

  • PERFEITO!!

  • Cool!! Enjoyed!

  • Remember gettin stoned listenin' to this over & over.

    Fuckin' loved it....top tune.

  • Dude, where's the X.  My shoes are full of sweat!

  • UNA DE LAS MEJORES CANCIONES QUE HE ESCUCHADO ...........

  • @TheFabian70 Depeche Mode!!! 1 de los mejores grupos!!!

  • EXCELENTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Best fucking song ever.

  • An epiphany as it changes over to Where Did Our Love Go...sweet.

  • New Romantic dude...not Neo :)

  • @abagail4me-- Ahhh, sweetheart; Neo Romantic is the correct term and spelling. Neo means "new". Late 1970's , early 80's post punk era. Puffed up hair, puffy white shirts, and brocade jackets, etc. Nothing worse than correcting someone when you're wrong, "dude".

  • @abagail4me Neo is the correct term.....

  • This is the BEST sound of any posting on here! This is how I remember it in the clubs, and when it came on, the floor would be absolutely packed. A HUGE hit at the time. And it still sounds SO amazing, thanks for posting!!!! The so-called neo-romantic era.

  • @quadralerium I have several times in the past blasted this out of my dad's huge old stereo speakers to the point where it can be heard through the whole house (and possibly the whole neighborhood)! Sounds great, and like you said, this particular video is as close as you can get to raw hq digital audio on youtube.

  • nice one :D!

  • Wow defiantly the 80 's . I remember this version all too well.

  • I like it.

  • I want to hunt down that 45.

  • I remember that i bought this record(lp) for my girlfriend,but it seemed that she had no turntable to play it.Sorry!
