Bobby Bloom - Montego Bay

If you're under 40, you're probably more familiar with the Amazulu version which was a huge hit in 1986, but this 1970 original version is just great! Plus, check this great clip (which I'm sure was not filmed in Montego Bay) - don't you just love the way the backing singers pop out from behind the bushes?! This was the only hit Bobby Bloom had, although he also co-wrote 'Mony Mony' and was tragically shot in 1974 at the age of 28.


Bonus Clip: Amazulu's cover version.
