abstract
  • %22Mony Mony%22 is a 1968 single by American pop/rock band Tommy James and the Shondells, which reached No. 1 in the UK Singles Chart while also getting serious airplay in the U.S. and Canada. On WLS, %22Mony Mony%22 was #1 on 6-13 May 1968, two years to the day after the nearly identically named %22Monday, Monday%22 by The Mamas and the Papas was #1 on the station. Written by Bobby Bloom, Ritchie Cordell, Bo Gentry, and Tommy James, the song has appeared in various film and television works such as the Oliver Stone drama Heaven & Earth. It was also notably covered by English singer-songwriter Billy Idol in 1981. Idol's version, which took in more of a new wave and power pop sound, became an international top 40 hit and additionally revived public interest in the original garage rock single. A month after his live 1987 hit version, another Tommy James song had also hit #1 - Tiffany's version of I Think We're Alone Now.
