He's a fucking multi millionaire, why not sing some happy stuff. I would.
It's also sort of samey musically.
Maybe because all the stuff he wrote about was when he was skint?

Ah good old music snobbery. I got shit loads of abuse at school for having "Soft Cell" written on me rucksack...no I'm not gay you bros/duran duran loving thundercunts I happen to appreciate the vocal talent that is Marc Almond. Ah the memories, who doesn't know know tainted love? The word "anthem" is often over used when describing music, but when it comes to tainted love, that is an anthem of the 80s. We lived, we lived.
In fairness mate Tainted Love was a northern soul hit for Gloria Jones when the only pint of white stuff that Marc Almond got to swallow was free school milk.
It was an anthem at Wigan Casino long before Soft Cell covered it.
I did like Say Hello, Wave Goodbye though.
nice response
