Tainted Love



Hearing Gary's posting of Tainted Love I have to come fully out of the closet, and say I think the Marilyn Manson version is better (gasp) This is in spite of the fact I met Marc Almond in the post office in Great Portland St.

Written by Gloria Jones (Mrs Marc Bolan) I know this is one of the biggest selling songs of all time.. it's got resonance aplenty, just look at all the videos on youtube using it, it's even appeared on Dr Who... now that's fame :-)

Oh and Mr Manson, I know you guys all hate him, I love him, in all honesty he's probably what Ziggy Stardust wanted to be if Bowie could have got away with it (and in the dope show video he looks just like a guy I used to go to school with)

  2. WELL I like MM too, although he sure looks creepy, his sound is good.
    I am always amazed, Graham, to find that a person as interesting and busy as you would find the time to visit my blob, thanks!

  3. Thanks Gary, though you have to be kidding, I think I'm a right lazy little *** & totally unintersting (no I'm not fishing). Tell the truth I'd love to have done pottery except whats in my head won't seem to come out in front of me :-(

    & Marty, really good to have you back, hope you're doing ok?
