song in sub
does anyone know the title of the song in the submarine with the chorus *beep* horny, *beep* horny..."??? let me know.
shareBilly Idol-Mony Mony
shareThats a nice try, but no Billy Idol did a remake and is not the original singer of this song, it was performed by Glenn Bidmead in 1968, just like alot of songs, this is just another remake
shareThanks for the correction :)
shareHello,
do you know the full name of the title?
cause at google i can't find "Glenn Bidmead - mony mony" or everything have to do with "Glenn Bidmead" and "On the beach"... Google = no matches....
thank You for your answer...
bye

First, yes I know this thread is almost 2 years old.
Second, the full name of the song is "Mony Mony" and was done by Tommy James and the Shondells-here's the YouTube link for the video...

Third......I didn't see anything that linked "Glenn Bidmead" to this song. Tommy James did it first, released it in 1968......Bidmead was born in 1962.
wow, thanks man.
that's a good version too
but my favourite version is from Billy Idol :)

The closed captioning on screen ID's the song as "Mony Mony" by Tommy James and the Shondells, but it was NOT the original hit version -- it may have been a version re-done by Tommy James in the 1990s. It sounded somewhat like (although not exactly) Billy Idol's version from about 1990.
BTW, I thought the song was very awkward and bizarre for that particular point in the script.

Yeah, it is that, a bit. But ... try this ...
The Captain probably always has a celebration when the sub's goal has been accomplished and the mission over (that is, except for the part of getting back to base and to report). Whenever they start the homeward leg, I gather this guy has the crew celebrate. And this time (perhaps every time), he tells the cook "I want them to eat like kings" and trots out the steak and beer. Then, around or after lights out, he has the ship's PA system flooded with the dance song.
He probably wants them all happy, sleepy, and tired, and wants them to have these memories to keep them from counting the days they have left to live.
My reaction, on seeing see these KIDS getting their kicks, one of them by singing "F--- horny! F--- horny!", at this party, it felt pretty childish to me, which kind of rubbed my nose in the fact that the sailors are about twenty, and they weren't going to be twenty-one. So if all they had to look forward to was getting back to their girlfriends and spending the last month of their life having sex -- well, I might respect that.
The captain, at least, had had twice the lifetime of them, had had a happy marriage and partly raised a family. A good father, he at least was trying to take care of his ... men? Or twenty year old kids. It was the best he could do.
It was awkward and bizarre, but it was the sailors' ship, and by their standards, this was pretty good.
(Except I don't know if 21st century twenty year olds can get into 1960's music.)
