Originally posted by creeksterI'm witrh you on soft cell, Il Pad, but not dear prudence. I know your love for all things 80s, but I think souixies' version is an abomination.
As for Tainted Love, I only knew that Soft Cell did a cover because a neighbor of mine who used to babysit me when I was a kid loved Gloria Jones and would bring her vinyl copy of whatever album that was on and play it incessantly. I'll admit that I had forgotten that it was a cover the first few times I heard Soft Cell do it.
I do like covers, but tend to prefer the original artist almost every time. I once read somewhere that the general consensus is that Hendrix's cover of Dylan's All Along the Watchtower is the best cover ever and probably agree. I can agree with this."Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy; its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." - Winston Churchill
"I only know what I hear on the news." - Dear Leader

Oh yeah, I have opinions.
Now I'm too chicken to pull out my Roger Clinton cover of Ride Captain Ride.

I give you that Gilbert OSullivan had more pathos, but he's also weighed down with his peculiar canuck phrases. Vonda is more mindless, but I like her smooth singing.
Now I'm too chicken to pull out my Roger Clinton cover of Ride Captain Ride.PLesa excuse the tpyos.
