  • good stuff. Subbed

  • CoOl :)) gus ...hit the buttons ...

  • Fantastic video. Thanks Schmutzy! Coney Island in the 50s-60s was the best place to grow up and it will ALWAYS remain the same in our mind's eye.

  • just so everyone knows Coney Island wasnt always 'the ghetto'

  • Great Song! Great Video.

    

  • Wow I love how they melded the Old Coney with whats left of it now. AWESOME video. Thanks Garland for a look in to History

  • Holy Crap!

    I just saw Garland on Letterman's show do a DYNAMIC live performance of this song.

    I first saw Garland Jeffreys open for Lou Reed in Memphis, Tennessee at the Orpheum Theater I believe it was... about 115 years ago.

    He was awesome then and he's just as awesome now.

  • Coney will always be crazy! The ghetto has it's own Six Flags! Gentrification met it's match!

  • Catchy,catchy tune! CI reminds me of Asbury Park... or I should say AP is modeled after CI ! Cool places both!

  • So cool to rediscover the unique artistry of Garland Jefferies. He is the most underated talent in rock and roll. All hail the mighty king of NY music.

  • Hi I am looking for a song called Roller Coaster Town..Can you help me?

  • Man !!!I LOve You!!! Really I did for your music!!!!

  • Gee!

    I have been a fan since New York Skyline, back in the day, the love and care you have for this city and it's character and characters, reminds me of a rock and roll Pete Hamil who so vividly captures NYC in Novels and articles, rock on bro! Your awesome!!!

  • He gets better and better...No stopping him now! And great video DW :)

  • how good can this man get?

  • Fantastic....love it ..very difficult to get it here in Australia..Have to wait until I go to Europe end of August

    I watched it a few times and like it more and more ..feels like a treat before you go to bed.

  • Every time I watch this video , I catch something else I didn't see the time before

    (like a great movie) -besides the song is so good ,its almost distracting -lol

  • Love to Garland and Coney Island, I love that place. Greetings from Italy :-)

  • Great song :)

  • G does it again! Too bad only his loyal followers will get to hear this since commercial radio refuses to play anything but corporate-supported music.

  • I can't wait for the new album!!!

  • Wonderful!

    My first exposer to Garland was his great, no longer available LP, "Rock & Roll Adult" - I've been hooked ever since. This song is right up at the top - can't wait for the new CD!

  • This is one of the best piece of music Garland never did. And makes me proud to support him since he was releasing Matador. We all know he's not only a fantastic artist and one of the best voice around, but also a sincere and genuine human being still surviving in this bloody business. I wish him all the best and good luck for his brand new album.

  • It is an absolute shame that Garland Jeffreys has not become a major star but that's the way popular taste runs. This song bodes well for what should be a great album. I've seen Garland live many times and he's a wonderful performer who elevates his already-great music. All the best, Garland!

  • Just an instant NY classic from the real king of NY.

    Great song, great artist from a place that my kids & I spent many a childhood memory.

    Hey GF, care to share who is backing you on this wonderful tune?

  • Another new anthem for custom-made for me (so to speak)

    coming from THE LEGENDARY GARLAND JEFFREYS!!!

    Rock it, Souljah, ROCK IT!!!!!

  • Fantastic song with perfect imagery from a master storyteller - those "22 stops to the city" have hooked me and I honestly could feel myself on the ferris wheel goin' round and round! Thanks for teasing us fans with this video - I can't wait until the album is released!

  • Great Song stay up...

  • Really cool song...I love it!

  • This song Rocks ~ Best new song I've heard this year

  • Excellahntay, thanks so much for sharing!

    Looking forward and best wishes!

    Cheers and Love from the left coast USA!

    p.s. you don't got time to die!

  • Nice. Reminds me of Laurence Ferlinghetti's beat "Coney Island of the Mind" volume from back in the '50's.
