Month of Music Meme - Belated Day 17 — A Song That You Hear Often On The Radio

[csberry]

Goodness knows it is impossible to listen to a classic rock station in Alabama without hearing "Sweet Home Alabama" daily. However, there is a song that has greater station penetration thanks to special 80's lunches or weekend dance mixes. While I've always liked the original of Soft Cell's "Tainted Love", it seems that I always hear the version (or very similar version) with "Where Did Our Love Go" added at the end instead.

This D*mn Song AGAIN?!

[(Anonymous)]

Ugh, I got SO burned out on this song in 1981-82! It was the audio equivalent of Marc Singer's "Beastmaster" on HBO: it was every bloody day's business to play it. Several times. You couldn't escape it. The passage of almost 30 years has not dulled the disgust at all for either the song or the movie. The ferrets, the ferrets, the $*#@#*%@!#$! ferrets!
