After 3-11 shift at the hospital, I love to "Chillax" to this music! Thanks!

I love this song and his voice is still perfect but the gain on the guitars really kills it. They really should have stuck with that vintage reverb sound. Thanks for posting!!

I just finished TJ's book about him and the Mob. Great Job TJ. Its called ME, The Mob and the Music and its a great read.

The original version of this by The Fireballs is posted here on YT. Not quite as good as Tommy's but worth a look if you like the song.

Thanks for posting this video Chris! I have this DVD also- it is great! I have seen Tommy live 5 times. He is a great performer and also a wonderful human being. He always comes down into the crowd during the playing of "Mony, Mony" and greets the audience. At tthe end of the concert after singing "Sweet Cherry Wine" he always says " Look up, Jesus is coming soon". A number of his songs have Christian lyrics to them. He almost always is available after performing to sign autographs. Ron

@rwells47 Hi, Ron! You are welcome! I couldn't find this song on YT at all...maybe I missed it, but all of the other songs from this dvd are already posted. We saw him live at an outdoor festival this same year ('99)...he was terrific and drew a capacity crowd! Only had seen him once before in the late 80's. Yes, he's a very spiritual person...I hope someday I have the chance to meet him. Oh, btw, we just got his book...will be reading it soon! Chris

@bze2nlz4- yes, Chris he is a very nice man. You will enjoy reading his biography- it is very good!  Ron
