It sampled? Oh no!!!Okay, "SOS" samples (understatement) Soft Cell's version of "Tainted Love," which was a cover of a song by Gloria Jones. That's nothing new. Rap & Hip/hop sample like crazy. Madonna's "Hung Up" sampled ABBA, and her "Future Lovers" samples Donna Summer. Rihanna hasn't invited something new here. In honesty, I prefer her vocals (and possibly, lyrics) to Soft Cell's lyrics and vocals. Seldom does a remake (or sample) outdo the original, but let's face it: Soft Cell's hit wasn't a hit from the voca…
I like SOS!My rating is only three stars, because this is the only song I've heard by Rhianna.I am in my 40s. I remember Soft Cell's version, which of course, they took from an even older version. So what if this song samples Soft Cell's rendition? I think there's room for both! Both songs are good in different ways. People need to be a little more tolerant.
