Like several of the songs we have talked about “Wicked Game” by Chris Isaak is another one that took a while to really set off. Even though it was released as a single from his studio album “Heart Shaped World” it only become a hit when David Lynch included it in his film “Wild at Heart”.

Most notably though it has been covered a lot, by bands such as R.E.M., HIM, Pink, Céline Dion, Zucchero or – my personal favourite – Les Reines Prochaines. And many more.

Supermodel Helena Christensen, on the contrary, is pictured quite uncovered in the video (the better known one of two).
