Soft Cell – Tainted Love BREAKDOWN BIT: The Power of of a First Take 🎤

There’s a raw, emotional quality to these vocals, and it turns out what we’re hearing is the first take sung by Marc Almond. In the chorus, certain lines are stacked — Marc singing the same line more than once — which adds intensity and pushes the emotion forward. The backing vocals are stacked too, arranged in a way that gives the ending that powerful sense of lift you really feel.
