AS VOTED FOR BY PRO MOBILE READERS
If the Fifties was the decade that pop music as we know it was born, the Sixties was when it grew up and started thinking for itself. Revolution, experimentation and new ideas were the order of the day, and the rise of this counterculture, along with the civil rights movement, resulted in a music-buying public with more varied taste than ever before.

Mony Mony
Tommy James & The Shondells
Backed by handclaps, brass and an organ hook that will worm its way inside your head within seconds, Tommy James provides a signature powerful vocal on this sixties favourite. Eschewing their rawer garage-rock sound, Tommy James & the Shondells moved in more of a pop-rock direction towards the end of the decade, and 'Mony Mony' was their biggest UK hit, reaching number one in 1968. If you're intrigued by the title, then no, it isn't supposed to read 'Money Money'. James had the song written and needed a snappy title/chorus, eventually being inspired by the big red MONY sign on top of the Mutual Of New York building in New York!
