"Crucified" is a 1991 song recorded by the Swedish band Army of Lovers. It is the first single from their second album Massive Luxury Overdose and the seventh single to be released by the band. It was released from May 1991 (in Sweden) to February 1992 (in France). A re-edition that features on Massive Luxury Overdose (US Version) was made in 1992, and became a huge hit in America. "Crucified" is possibly the best known song released by the band.

It was recorded by Jean-Pierre Barda (vocals, drums), Alexander Bard (vocals, computer) and La Camilla (vocals, bass) who also feature in the videoclip. The two remixes available on the CD maxi and 12" maxi are made by Nuzak.

The song was successful in several European countries, including Sweden, Austria and Switzerland, where it reached the top 10. It reached the #1 in Belgium[1], and also in Finland where it charted 13 weeks in the Top-20.

The song was played in Gabriel Aghion's 1996 film, Pédale douce, and was thus included in the tracklisting of the soundtrack.
