For bonds issued before May 2005 the rate of interest is recomputed every six months at 90% of the average five-year Treasury yield for the preceding six months. Bonds issued in May 2005 or later pay a fixed interest rate for the life of the bond (0.10% in November 2016).
Gloria Jones version (1965) American artist Gloria Jones recorded the original version of Tainted Love, which was written and produced by Ed Cobb. It was the B-side of her 1965 single My Bad Boy's Comin' Home, which was a commercial flop, failing to chart in either the US or the UK.
On January 10th 1982, Tainted Love by Soft Cell entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart; and on July 11th it peaked at #8 (for 2 week) and spent 43 weeks on the Top 100 (amazingly, it spent only 3 weeks on the Top 10).Barry - Sauquoit, Ny. That song is so relevant to me right now.
