PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

Personally, I didn't have a problem with the song, per se.I questioned the song choice for the singer. There's a few ways to go with such a song. The MM version would have probably been the best choice. And the Soft Cell version could be the right choice for another singer. To me? Her version sounded more like the mix of the song that Rihanna uses. And that's just not Rock Star. What I've liked best on RS in the past is when someone takes a song like this that everybody thinks they know and puts a new spin on it. Like JD did last year with "California Dreamin'" or Marty did with "Hit Me, Baby, One More Time." That would have impressed me.  Goddess of the Steeler Nation

Plus, didn't Soft Cell and Duran Duran come out around the same time? They give one guy crap for doing the DD song, then put up Tainted Love as one of the selections that someone HAS to do, to me Duran Duran and Soft Cell are in the same genre, so what's up with that?

Sure, but Billy came out of Gen X, which was a pretty solid punk band. Duran Duran was all about the pretty hair. Soft Cell fell somewhere between the two: not really punk, but definitely more new wave than Duran Duran.

Jenny should have done Rhianna's SOS which samples Tainted Love, hahaha. Actually Soft Cell didn't come out with Tainted Love, it was first recorded by Gloria Park in 1964. Soft Cell just made the song popular.
