A hundred years ago, Bram Stoker died and he is immortal because of his novel "Dracula". This occasion seems to be perfect for a new label in this blog called "lost & found", beginning with a little vampire and the tv theme of this series...

CONEY ISLAND

Forgotten world, where places where once called Lunapark, Dreamland and Astroland in New York. Where you could "shoot freaks" and take a ride on the "parachute jump". Now it's also called "Little Odessa" and you can walk down a nostalgic and at the same time vivid russian neighbourhood. A place, which is surreal and real at the same time and where you become totally peaceful.
Here are some artistic interpretations and hymns of Coney Island...

SONGS...

MORTIMER - CONEY ISLAND
Capturing the perfect Atmosphere /
Just listen to it and you are there...

DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE - CONEY ISLAND
Everything was closed at Coney Island /
and I could not help from smiling...

RED HOUSE PAINTERS - ROLLERCOASTER
There's my favourite Rollercoaster /
Next to the blue water /
The one only sissies ride...
