Chris Isaak (born June 26, 1956) is an American singer-songwriter known for the 1989 hit "Wicked Game" and a crooner-influenced rock/pop style.

Wicked Game is Isaak's best-known song; it gained wider attention after association with the David Lynch film Wild at Heart and has been widely noted for its torch-song, crooner qualities.

Two DeBaser reviews discuss Chris Isaak's signature song 'Wicked Game' and the 1991 album re-release that capitalized on its success. One review praises the song's dreamy, torch-song qualities; the other criticizes the album reissue as an exploitative commercial move. Both highlight Isaak's crooner-influenced style.

For:Fans of melancholic pop, crooners, classic rock and singer-songwriter music listeners
