Billy Idol - Mony Mony (Live In New York 2001)

“Mony Mony“ is a 1968 single by Tommy James & the Shondells, that reached nº1 in the UK charts. “Mony Mony“ was credited to Tommy James, Bo Gentry, Ritchie Cordell, and Bobby Bloom. The hook in the song is said to have been inspired by James’ view of a MONY sign atop the Mutual of New York Building in the New York City skyline from his Manhattan apartment. As Tommy James says in a 1995 interview in Hitch magazine: True story: I had the track done before I had a title. I wanted something catchy like “Sloopy“
