Did Depeche Mode make a cover for the song Tainted Love?

Question

I was watching VH1's "100 Greatest 80s Songs," and I noticed that the song "Tainted Love" was performed by a band named Soft Cell. I had always believed that Depeche Mode was the one who sang that song. Did Depeche Mode ever make a cover of "Tainted Love," or am I mistaken?

Nope.  You’re mistaking Dave Gahan for Marc Almond who actually sang Tainted Love.  There are several versions that he’s done of the song though.

I always heard the soft cell version and have never heard of Depeche Mode covering it.

I found this on the web. It doesn’t mention Depeche Mode covering it.:

The original version of this song appears on the Gloria Jones album 38 Soulklassiker 1960-69 (disc 1).
