Strangely, or not, Tainted Love was played every morning on a radio station at the exact same time all 4 years of high school. So every time I woke up, Tainted Love was on the radio. God that was annoying

He was born in 1981. Cut him a little slack. Whipper-snapper barely remembers the Reagan presidency.

As for mine, well, late October 1975 apparently was a down period in the music business. I'm almost embarrassed by the list:
UK single I Only Have Eyes For You by Art Garfunkel

USA single Bad Blood by Neil Sedaka

Australia single I Do I Do I Do I Do I Do by Abba

UK album 40 Golden Greats by Jim Reaves

USA album Windsong by John Denver

Top shelf quality, I tell you.

I've heard the song and I think it sucks. Never heard the other song though, "This Ole House", or the album, and if someone asked me who Kim Carnes was I'd have no idea.

I do agree that the song is rotten. Sounds like someone who either chain-smoked or caught laryngitis right before singing. Kinda grates on the nerves a bit.
