"Wicked Game" is a song originally released by Chris Isaak in 1989. The song can was featured on his third studio album Heart Shaped World (1989). Despite being released as a single in 1989, it didn't become a hit until January of 1991, when it reached #6 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
The lyrics have many interpretations: "What a wicked game to play, to make me feel this way / What a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you"; The "wicked game" is played by a woman who appears to have tricked the singer into loving her, or a woman so captivating that the singer falls in love with her even though he wishes not to (love is itself a "wicked game").
