I think you mean 'Mony Mony'
Original recording by Tommy James & the Shondells in 1968. Brilliant track, yet another to be massacred by a bad cover version, Craig McLaughlin has been on my hitlist ever since.... [img]graemlins/madhell.gif[/img]
(In case anyone hasn't realised yet, bad covers of great songs is one of my pet peeves... and yes, I am a mine of useless 60s music trivia)
EDITING TO ADD: Tommy James also did the original of 'I Think We're Alone Now' which was covered exceptionally hideously by Tiffany a few years back. She's also on my hitlist...
