There's nothing like a good cover version, is there, a new and good take on a classic song.
"Tainted Love" is a great three minute pop song on its own, but combined with the long instrumental midsection and gradual shift into The Supremes' hit song, it works well on so many levels. It was the first mainstream electronic song that caught my ear and made me understand its appeal. (I already enjoyed electronic music in the form of Kraftwerk and Tangerine Dream, but not mainstream pop songs.)
