The Blow Monkeys was a British pop band of the 1980s that started out, in 1981, as a new wave-oriented act, with the first single, "Live Today Love Tomorrow", released in 1982. They subsequently turned into more commercial pop rock hit makers, and finally became a dance group, shortly before splitting up at the beginning of the 1990s. In late 2007, the original band members reunited, releasing a new album and going on tour in 2008.
