１９８１年１０月，將滿２６歲的英國搖滾歌手比利艾鐸（Billy Idol）推出處女迷女專輯EP［Dont Stop／別停］（Chrysalis唱片發行），由Keith Forsey製作，評價良好．

登上美國告示牌專輯榜＃７１．

其中第二單曲［Mony Mony／曼尼曼尼］，這是翻唱美國樂團Tommy James and the Shondells１９６８年的英國冠軍／美國單曲榜＃３單曲，

由Tommy James, Bobby Bloom, Ritchie Cordell, Bo Gentry創作，

Keith Forsey製作成一首新浪潮／舞曲搖滾，節奏輕快，比利的歌聲奔放，和聲豐厚．

［Mony Mony］指登上美國各式排副榜──全國迪斯可榜＃７．

在２０１５年出版的回憶錄《Dancing with Myself》中，艾鐸回憶說，他對這首歌的喜愛最初源於他年輕時的一次性經歷，當時這首歌作為背景音樂播放。

在向 Chrysalis 唱片公司的高層提議重新演繹這首歌之前，他最初建議翻唱［Shout］，之後才透露自己翻唱［Mony Mony］的意圖。

１９８７年９月２１日，比利推出［Mony Mony］的現場演唱版，

這個版本更加硬式搖滾風味，艾鐸的歌聲更為扎實硬氣．

［Mony Mony］(Live)大受歡迎，登上英國單曲榜＃７，

在美國更是拿到告示牌單曲榜王座（副榜──主流搖滾榜＃２７），成為艾鐸首支冠軍曲（1987年榜#19）．

巧合的是，它擠掉了少女歌手蒂芙妮（Tiffany）翻唱的另一首Tommy James and the Shondells歌曲［I Think Were Alone Now］的冠軍寶座（1987年榜#18）。

這首歌在1987年終公告牌榜單上也緊名列蒂芬妮的翻唱之後.

國際方面：加拿大冠軍，蟬聯四週（1987年榜#19）──金唱片（５萬張＋）

紐西蘭＃２──金唱片（1.5萬張＋）

澳洲＃８　瑞士＃１３　西德＃３８　荷蘭＃８９．

［Mony Mony］(Live)最早收錄在１９８８年６月推出的精選輯［Idol Songs: 11 of the Best］（Chrysalis唱片發行）（北美未發行），Keith Forsey製作．

精選輯登上英國專輯榜＃２──白金唱片（３０萬張＋）（1988年榜#28），

芬蘭冠軍──白金唱片（５萬張＋）

瑞典＃４──金唱片（５萬張＋）

挪威＃４　西德＃１４　冰島＃２

瑞士＃６──金唱片（2.5萬張＋）

澳洲＃１１──金唱片（７萬張＋）

奧地利＃１１──金唱片（2.5萬張＋）

法國──金唱片（１０萬張＋）

歐洲榜＃６（1988年榜#42）

在美國，［Mony Mony］(Live)是非專輯單曲，但同期（1987年9月）發行的混音專輯［Vital Idol］美國版（英國原版在1985年5月推出）有收錄［Mony Mony］(Downtown Mix)，因而間接受利，

［Vital Idol］(US version)登上美國告示牌專輯榜＃１０──白金唱片（１００萬張＋）（1988年榜#71）

英國專輯榜＃４１──白金唱片（３０萬張＋）

加拿大冠軍──４白金唱片（４０萬張＋）（1987年榜#21／1988#41）

澳洲＃１２（1988年榜#49）

紐西蘭＃１４──金唱片（0.75萬張＋）
