Troy Shondell Dies

January 11, 2016

NASHVILLE (AP) — The man who sang “This Time (We’re Really Breaking Up)” has died. A family friend says Troy Shondell died Thursday of complications related to Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases at a nursing facility in Picayune, Mississippi. He was 76. Shondell hit number 6 with “This Time” in 1961 but never had another top 40 hit. However, his lasting influence may be his name. Tommy James named his band The Shondells after him, and The Ides of March were originally called The Shondels — with one “L” — but changed it after hearing about James’ band.
