Which is better? The original one by the Clash or the remake by Marilyn Manson? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
original are u sure its by the Clash? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
do u mean the old old version, or the soft cell version? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all versions are quite hallarious |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Im pretty sure, although I could be wrong. I can think today for some reason. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the clash? i thought the original was by cold cell... i recommend you the original one anyway. there is a much more different version by coil, too (which make the song sound like a dark march, not groundbreaking but interesting)... |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
thegroover - Old old version. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The Original(SOFT CELL) is way better than m mansons version! Definitely! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I cant think today. I saw it on VH1 the other day and Im pretty sure it was the Clash. I searched it on Kazaa and got too many results to get a good answer. |
||||||||

|
|
don't know if soft cell's is the original...sorry |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I want the instrumental version of Manson's version, good industrial sounds. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think the original is by soft cell |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Most of the time ,the original is better... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
soft cell ..no doubt about it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I havent the slightest idea. Oh well, lets just say the origrinal or Manson's version for the time being. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It was definitely Soft Cell |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The Soft Cell 9min+ versioni is SOOOOO BADASS.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Neither....Manson shouldnt have remade that song, its already a gay song to begin with. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The original is WELL DONE...all other versions suck! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the manson cover version is great! one of the better attempts, and keeps the original sleazy vibe |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Soft Cell rules! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Soft Cell did the origional |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, soft cell... I never liked that song... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Marilyn Manson totally destroyed that song, and not in a good way. Didn't they apply the same pathetic treatment to Eurythmics "Sweet Dreams Are Made of This"? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
MM turned Sweet Dreams into a nightmare anthem. Though I liked his version rather much. Tainted Love cover though?? His new shit is rumored to be make or break. He is trying to go into a "Be your own God" mode, and this new album is concept style? iono, not like any of you give a f*** |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
your right blatant WE DONT...MM turned Tainted Love into SHIT...that bastard..... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I fucking hate Marilyn!! If saw him on the streets, dam!!! A bottle of whup ASS!!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The original anything Manson touches is WACK!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Soft Cell,definitely. |
||||||||
|
|

this video is a horrible piece of shit! i've liked old mansons video's although i don't like his music (only "antichrist superstar" was excellent) but this one is extremly shitty. i think it was supposed to be a joke, a parody of hiphop videos but it is so fucked up... i hate it! |
||||||||

I'm afraid you're all wrong as to who did the original "Tainted Love"..... Soft Cell did the 80s version, but it was a cover of an older song (never heard of a Clash version though?). The ORIGINAL was a Northern Soul hit for Gloria Jones, back in the 60s or 70s. You can get it on Audiogalaxy, and in my opinion it's the best version of the lot. I like the Soft Cell version though, but the Marilyn Manson version is, like all his stuff, a lot of overblown and over-dramatic shite IMO. Incidentally, a bit of trivia for you: Gloria Jones was the girlfriend of Marc Bolan (of T Rex), and it was her who crashed the Mini in which they were both travelling, an accident that killed him. She survived. |

|
|
Well, at any rate I'm pretty sure that the Clash never did a version. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
good luck diastole1!! :) on audiogalaxy you can even get a skinny puppy version... don't know if it's real or fake, i didn't try it... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the original is actually an old northen soul record by gloria jones - soft cell did a cover - so did coil incidentally. |

oh wow i can't believe someone acredited "tainted love" to being performed by the clash, that is hilarious. to make it clear, they've NEVER peformed that song and it would have been totally out of character of them to do so, even as a joke cover. i am so glad two people here know soft cell didn't write the song and that gloria jones did the original version. here's how i rank the versions from best to worst: coil (very dark and moving) soft cell (it is a classic cover, symbolic of the whole synth pop movement) gloria jones (sounds so different from laer covers, i guess cos everyone is "covering" soft cell's version, except coil who say they covered the original and have always pointed out that gloria jones did the original; in fact they even have a "free mp3" of the original on their brainwashed.com/coil media section) manson (just TERRIBLE) some crappy cleopatra records artist, (hopefully) falsely attributed to skinny puppy (even worse than manson's version if that's possible) btw manson's version of "sweet dreams" is awesome over-the-top rock and roll. i love it, and i am not a fan of manson at all. he totally fucks up "working class hero" and "suicide is painless" among countless other covers his shitty band has done; i only like his covers of the aforementioned eurythmics song and screamin' jay hawkins "i put a spell on you", very well placed within the lost highway soundtrack. his version of patti smith's "rock & roll nigger" is ok but honestly it's about 0.1% as good as the rockin' original (i hope everyone knows this song is pro-black, not a racist anthem, right?). |

manson sucks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I see manson's version as a mockery of original. Since I hat original, I think I would prefer v2.0 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I do believe this version is still charting in Europe though, it's been there for quite a while, still @ #3? www.marilynmanson.com should have all your details.......... boo |
