I don't care what anyone says, soft cell rocks. Most songs are absolutely brilliant! And the original version of frustration is incredibly intense! |

"Sex Dwarf" is a classic....in fact,the debut album is/was the shit. "Sex Dwarf,isn't it nice,luring disco dollies to a life of vice."Great. }:> |

hahaha Right on! I love these lyrics: "I've got no address, just a telephone number. Phone me tonight and maybe we can talk dirty!" :) Any record with that line of lyrics deserves a two thumbs up! |

GET AWAY MARILYN MANSON! |

i'm listening to 2 Live crew....I can't believe how bad these lyrics are, I mean, I now they were notorious but some are completely homophobic |

Manson's cover of Tainted Love sucks. Coil's version is cool though. :) |

Marilyn who?! };> |

hahahha :) I can dig some Manson stuff--the early stuff (marilyn manson and the spooky kids) through AntiChrist superstar. But since he's decided to work with Slipknot, I want nothing to do with him. I hate Slipknot with every fiber of my being! |

"Slipknot" big in Scotland,apparently. }:> |

Marc Almond's the ultimate spaceage torch song diva... that's a compliment not a slur..incase you were wondering |
||||||||
|

Here in America too. And God damn, they're awful! White trash heavy metal. :) |

Didn't they copy a group called GWAR? }:> |

I love Marc Almond! Soft Cell's tracks had it all: simple, gloomy, electronic music with twisted, lewd, or otherwise demented lyrics. Perfect! |

hmm..interesting fact... quote It was 1981's "Tainted Love," that brought the duo to international prominence; written by the Four Preps' Ed Cobb and already a cult favorite thanks to Gloria Jones' soulful reading, the song was reinvented as a hypnotic electronic dirge which became the year's best-selling British single, as well as a major hit abroad. unquote I am kinda curious about the original original now... |
||||||||

|
Yeah,SC were much emulated.Have you heard track called "Martin"? }:> |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've heard the original... it's not at all like Soft Cell's version. Yes--I love Martin :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmm..what's it like..is it a lounge jazz thing?..hopefully like "fever"? |
||||||||
|
|

Try Audiogalaxy? }:> |

|
|
umm..dont have that..soulseek? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's kinda...I don't remember it very well. I'm pretty sure it was like a '60s Motown sorta thing. but lounge jazz thing is probably accurate too! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wow..I just saw a Skinny Puppy version of tainted love..on there..never knew it existed..I got it qeued..and there's a Gloria Jones one there too..but there's like 297 bastards in line ahead of me.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The SKinny Puppy version is probably a mislabeled Coil version. :( |

Gotta go...CUL8TR.have fun! }:> |

not..it isnt..Sounds like early Skuppy..that's definetly Ogre..on there...dont know if I like it yet.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmm..just finished listened to the whole thing...it's rather disposable..I dont hate it..vocals are nice..a deep bassy one offsetting Ogre going nuts in the back..the music is nice and suitably minimal electro but it's totally spoiled by a chugging distorted guitar carrying the rhythm through out...not as bad as Manson..but still..like I said..it misses the point of the song....hence disposable.. |
