Ooohhhh…this is a tough one. Honestly I had never heard the original (yeah, yeah…shame on me and all that ๐ ๐ ). But I liked it๐ It’s very hard to choose between these three as all of them have a certain tainted love to them (Yup…I did it again ๐), but I’m going to go with number two: Soft Cell ๐๐

Sadly I’m going to have to vote for the Manson one, though I don’t want to because I’ve always felt he’s a bit of a knob. Not that keen on the song, but at least he does something different with it.

Me too!! ๐๐ป Crazy to think that he’s a literal genius. He’s got a great sound and he’s definitely great at marketing himself.

Yah, but he’s a freak first and foremost. Plus he rocks the eyeliner so well.

Very true! (not as good as Tim Curry, though. ๐)

Yeah but that’s Tim Curry. He played the Devil in Legend and Pennywise in the original IT for God’s sake. Hes the ultimate freak. God I love him.

Soft Cell all the way! Marilyn Manson will probably never be my gig, but I didn’t know that Gloria Jones did it as well. It’s cute – lol! =D
