NEW SEGMENT: Before It Was A Hit Song... II
BEFORE IT WAS A HIT SONG
These songs are well known but you may not know about the earlier attempts to score a hit record with prior versions of the same song.
GloriaJones76.jpgSoft Cell achieved global success with "Tainted Love" in 1981. The synth-pop duo 's chart topper was a revamp of an obscure soul gem that served as a B-side for R&B vocalist Gloria Jones. Her original take burst out in 1965. It is now a cherished Northern soul classic.
