Tainted Love.

Was that early 90s, or late 80s??

I was going to post that one, but I wasn't sure.

Hm... I have no idea! Could be either, come to think of it. But it still makes me think of the jeans commercial with the guy getting shocked back to life and saying "Oh! Tainted Love!" and his heart monitor keeping rhythm with the song.

I forgot who sang it, but I'm pretty sure it's an 80s song.

I used to think it was a Billy Idol song, but it's sung by a group called Dead or Alive and it came out in 84 or 85.

It was on the tip of my tongue.

I knew it was an 80s dance song.

Have you seen George Lopez making fun of white people dancing to that song?? Hilarious!!!

Maybe it's just me, but "dance song" should be a song that people actually danced to.

In which case, for the 80s it's:

1. Billy Jean, Michael Jackson
2. Billy Jean, Michael Jackson
3. Billy Jean, Michael Jackson

then, in no particular order:

Set It Off, Strafe
Da Butt, E.U.
Planet Rock, Afrikaa Bambaataa and Soul Sonic Force
Pump Up The Volume, MARRS
Jam On It, Newcleus
It Takes Two To Make A Thing Go Right, Rob Base
The Glamorous Life, Sheila E.
Looking For a New Love, Jody Whatley
When Doves Cry, Prince
Kiss, Prince
Rock The Casbah, The Clash
Super Freak, Rick James
Genius of Love, Tom Tom Club
Atomic Dog, George Clinton
