  • My 14yr old dtr is into many of the CBGB's bands that I liked when all of the Punk music was happening...Lester Bang's, The Dolls, Ramones, Television, Talking Heads, Dictators, Blondie...Great Days and of course the Sex Pistols...

  • @1stSaintsFan I recommend you introduce her to the band, Suicide, then.

    Play "Frankie Teardrop" for her, haha: watch?v=_5wJQkvSoOQ

  • CLUB DE MARILYN - Mala chica Argentinian New york dolls version.

  • Amazing how much Johansen sounds like Jagger. Great song

  • I haer on the grapevine that the original;thats un-dead;members of "The Heartbreakers",thats Walter Lure and Billy Rath are planing to come back to Blighty ;where I'm sure they will be welcome (got this from Vive'La'Rock).Sign on for a great ride with Mr Rock,who has a magazine to die for ."The Thoughts Of Chairman Smifffy01" T.T.F.N

  • fucking dolls way ahead

    wish i was there with a bottle and a fat dank sack of weed....with the homies

  • fucking dolls way ahead

    

  • Love the song and a passing grade on the video. EXCEPT I wish the live shots of the band were synched with the lyrics.

  • seen the dolls with poison n motley crue in charlotte. twas great

  • @TheTomtom2285 Seeing them tonight in Fresno on the same tour!

  • So, this the band I am seeing with Motley Crue and Poison later this summer.

  • and they're touring with motley crue and poison because?

  • Gorillaz!!

  • @DDBURN1 horray! yea i got this from pirate radio...

  • What I didn't know is that only two members of the band are still alive.

  • THE FAWKING ROOTS of PunK Rawk! BRAVO

  • @WickedGravityVideo Not really man lol The MC5 and The Stooges way before The NYD. The Kinks really were the main roots of punk,metal,hard rock ect. Without Dave Davies sound and playing alot of the Punk bands we love would not exist

  • @tatethompson1234 That's up for debate, I think The Who were pretty important to punk rock too.

  • one of there better tunes.........

  • mmmmh How do you call your lover boy?

  • The first time I saw them was in 73 or so. They played at an outdoor concert in Ohio, Mott the Hoople and Rainbow Canyon were the head liners. The Dolls stole the show! the second time I saw them was about a year later at the Allen theater in Cleveland.

  • @stuka52 suprised J.T showedn up!

  • FREE REPLAY BUTTON 0:00

  • Legendary groupie Lori Mattix @ 1:49

  • does anyone else think david johanson looks like a weird cross between mick jagger and steven tyler

    

  • @murdock2k8 Yes, yes I do.

  • @murdock2k8 And Steven Tyler took his girl (Cyrinda Fox).

  • im i right in sayin the clash did a cover of this

  • I still have their debut album, with the original sleeve, no less.

  • whithout the rolling stones new york dolls would not be what they are

  • Got turned on to punk n alternative back in 88 via WDRE in NY. these dudes DEAD KENNEDY'S, RAMONES, CIRCLE JERKS, BAD RELIGION, DEAD MILK MEN, THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS & countless others changed me for life...The freedom of expression is so raw and I don't give a F@#k i definitely regretfully missed that scene.

  • Sombody pass thunders some Heroin...

  • I saw these guys at the Whiskey, loved 'em. All shaved chests, heavy makeup and platform shoes. Crazyl

  • the people who press dislike are TRASH

  • They are just fan-fucking-tastic.

  • Sitting in a cozy bong circle in 1972 this was playing for a group of college n high school people. Someone asked, "What kind of music is this?" "Oh yeah I heard of them - I think I saw them on the Midnight Special at a party one night. Well....I like it. They Rock."

    'It Rocks.' 'They Rock.' was a common term throughout the 1970's.

  • Groundbreaking. Revolutionary music/image. So tough to believe they were from Staten Island and not Bay Ridge. In 1973, the NY Dolls set the pace for the angst to come. Took sheer guts on the NY Dolls's part, and we remember the trails.

  • As Mr.Burns from the Simpson's would say....

    EXCELLENT!!!!

  • @HippieJimi gods

  • Fuckin' Dolls man, years ahead of their time

  • @Raoul33 way

  • I saw Johnny perform live shortly before he died. He was really nice, I requested "Cinnamon Girl", and he played it. He sounded just like Neil Young.

  • some people were put off by their transvestite shtik, but this was a fine band. on this song, johnny thunder's guitat playing attains a power, splendor and majesty rarely heard anywhere else. johanson actually sounded more cyniical than jagger. i sang this song at karaoke, just like johanson, and a bunch of eagles fans ran away. they were terrified!

  • @54markl -----great comments. I agree: Johnny's guitar adds more simple raw aggression in 3 minutes than a putz like Ron Wood could add in a lifetime. Good riddance - eagles's fans gone. Thunders rules eternal.

  • @prettythings3 thank you. See new comment above.

  • @prettythings3 fuck Ron Wood. he was a poor man's Mick Taylor/Brian Jones.

  • @dchs11 ------Hi Dchs11, you pretty much nailed it perfectly. MT was a prodigy dating back to his work with John Mayall. He continues to be a blues purist and guitarist that is universally admired, but seemingly impossible to copy. BJ, before his deterioration, added versatility and inventiveness essential to the early Stones. Johnny, I'm told, could be absolutely mesmerizing. 54markl, please tell us more about your encounter with JT. Thank you.

  • @prettythings3 He was reaaliy nice. He took a request from me for Cinnamon Girl and played it note perfect, and sang just like Neil Young! He was really alarming after the gig, he was dashing around asking people for heroin! His skin was pale green, he looked like he was about to die! He did die, a few days later!

  • @54markl hell with what they look like just listen

  • @shannonandsheila1 Right!

  • I love The New York Dolls!!

  • johnny thunders is so cool

  • merveilleux...

  • Real Rock!!@!!

  • ew...you couldnt be further from the truth. Judging by steve tylers mannerisms, he is a big david johansen fan!

  • Listen to all og trassh

  • THE NEW YORK DOLLS!! THE BEST ROLLING STONES TRIBUTE BAND EVER!

  • @Alphabex8 Yeah, way better than Aerosmith

  • @HeadlandRoad Aerosmith? Steve Tyler doesn't sound much like Mick Jagger let alone the rest of the band. but i do agree: the Dolls are waaay better than Aerosmith

  • like the song! :D

  • 0:43 <3

  • Like it!

  • NYDs rock!

  • Perfect.More...
