\nTainted Love – Perverted Top Ten Music Chart<\/span>
\n<\/strong>Our musical Top Tens dedicated to all things kinky<\/em>
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s Pervy Poptastic! There’s a lot of contenders here from the ’80s and the kink is quite sublimated; the sexual revolution is bubbling away just below the surface of respectability or just enough for the grown-ups not to be able to understand its implications\u00a0😁 Relax by FGTH is the perfect example as no one understood its sexual innuendos “when you wanna cum… suck to it” – no really! it was a more innocent time. Eventually it was banned… which just made it an even bigger hit.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Into the noughties Lady Gaga was still carefully metaphorical in her huge 2008 hit which is actually about her experiences with bisexuality, being with a man but fantasising about a woman, hence her \u201cPoker Face\u201d.<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
