Just leave it the way it is!!!!
I don't propose an answer....I just want to say that Tainted Love is a bad-ass song, from a kick-ass band, Soft Cell......long live the 80\'s!!!!!

ok......
bad-ass = really good!!!!
kick-ass = very good!!!!
Of course it sounds good......you should hear their song, \"It\'s a Mug\'s Game\".......good stuff
I hope this clears things up.

amor corrupto / corrompido / pervertido
si se trata de la canción de Marilyn Manson yo la traduciría como "amor corrompido" "amor corrupto" o incluso "amor pervertido"

Amor manchado
The song "Tainted Love" has been released as "Amor Manchado" in Latin America
see websites below
"Manchado" seems like the right word to me; it's a more poetic word, as "tainted" is in English.

amor sin estrella
tainted love = love gone bad, es el amor que por alguna razón no puede realizarse, es un amor sin estrella.
