Chris Isaak’s “Wicked Game” was the biggest hit of his career. It was written and released in 1989 but it didn’t become a big sensation until 1991 thanks to its use in the David Lynch film “Wild at Heart”.
The steamy video featuring a popular model Helena Christensen also caused quite a stir because of the quasi-nudity and sexual theme of the video.
Here’s the remake of the song and video from HIM which gives it the Twilight vampire treatment.
WICKED GAME
The world was on fire
No one could save me but you.
Strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I’d meet somebody like you
And I never dreamed that I’d lose somebody like you
No, I don’t want to fall in love
[This world is only gonna b
reak your heart]
No, I don’t want to fall in love
[This world is only gonna break your heart]
With you
With you
[This world is only gonna break your heart]
What a wicked game you play
To make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do
To let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say
You never felt this way
What a wicked thing to do
To make me dream of you
And I don’t wanna fall in love
[This world is only gonna break your heart]
No I don’t want to fall in love
[This world is only gonna break your heart]
With you
{World} was on fire
No one could save me but you
Strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I’d love somebody like you
I never dreamed that I’d lose somebody like you
No I don’t wanna fall in love
[This world is only gonna break your heart
No I don’t wanna fall in love
[This world is only gonna break your heart]
With you
[This world is only gonna break your heart]
With you
[This world is only gonna break your heart]
No I
[This world is only gonna break your heart]
[This world is only gonna break your heart]
Nobody loves no one
