DEF: Billy Idol “Mony Mony”

Billy Idol has made thirteen appearances on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart, with nine of those songs hitting the Top 40 and four reaching the Top 10. Exactly 30 years ago, Idol scored the biggest hit of his career when his remake of Tommy James and The Shondells’ “Mony Mony” climbed to number one for a one-week run at the top. To commemorate that anniversary, “Mony Mony” by Billy Idol is today’s Daily Eighties Flashback.
