Jimmy Buffett - Cowboy In the Jungle - Directed by Delaney

[@mmlynek1]

I wish we would have gotten 90 good years with you Jimmy😢

[@JoeBlow-fp5ng]

I wish Jimmy did 100 more of these videos with his daughter.

[@Couragethecowardlydog-u6r]

My favorite line from this song is "24 hours may be 60 good years, it really isn't that long a stay". Indeed it is not, but your Dad Delaney, has made it a great deal sweeter.

[@gamoonbat]

76 good years!!!

[@kristamorgan9178]

I've been trying to recall the song with that line "maybe 60 good years, it's not that long a stay" since the day we all got the sad news. Finally it bubbled to the surface today! I'm so glad Delaney and her daddy did this project. The back stories are fun. So sorry for the loss, y'all ❤

[@greggwendorf2223]

"Can I get 90 good years?" I wish you had, Jimmy.

[@charlesmaulden9877]

My favorite Buffett song of all time. I’ve always felt like a Cowboy in the Jungle myself. Thanks Jimmy for all those who felt a little out of place but kept plowing ahead and rolling with the punches.

Thank you, Delaney, for these videos! Your Dad was a national treasure. BTW this song is my favorite of Jimmy’s.

[@joehazelquist3037]

God, I loved Jimmy. The world lost a true treasure.

[@Lionsheat]

Jimmy helped shape my childhood. This is in my opinion his most underrated song. I was heart broken when he passed away. You’ll always be in our hearts jimmy. My favorite singer of all time. R.I.P

[@djdollase]

I’m here cause of JB’s passing and reminiscing. I was never a “Parrot Head” and only knew J’s most famous songs (which were great). But this and some of the others I’m hearing in this series of videos are equally great. I just never really listened to them till now. What a great writer he was!

[@mcm332]

You should read his books.

[@Factsmatter626]

These videos may be the one truly good thing that came out of the Covid era. Thank you, Delaney.

[@gooberwench]

I was 1 year old in 78 and grew up knowing this timeless and poignant song. It’s still a favourite to this very day! Thank you Jimmy Buffett and family

[@michaelmiller5877]

Brings tears to my eyes. Reminds me of me and my late best friend. We would ride the "idiot loop" in our hometown during the summers and breaks from college. Invariably, this song would play and we would sing together. RIP Jeff K. and Jimmy B.

[@buckypeterson1018]

A huge favorite of mine, I always get goosebumps when the verse starts, "Alone on a midnight passage I can count the falling stars, as the Southern Cross and the satellites they remind me of where we are..."

[@aperad7488]

Jimmy Buffett was always on my turntable, my 8 track, my cassette, my CD player. He was the singer of the soundtrack of my life. These videos are so valuable to me.

Parrot Head since the 80s and for life!! “Fins up!!”

[@mikeedmondson3212]

My favorite JB song. Delaney, you two have recorded history with the back stories behind these songs! Thank you both!

[@bobk18]

I changed the words to a musher in the city. His music has been a big part of my life for almost 50 years now. Loosing this guy hurts hard. But we all go away.

[@saylorgirl799]

It definitely hurts. Yes, He’s been a part of our lives for 50+ years. I believe that Jimmy was our generation’s poet. So grateful that we will always have his music, but it hurts knowing that we can never see/hear him live in concert again. 💔

[@bobk18]

@@saylorgirl799 I sometimes quote a Jimmy line in during a conversation. I always say “in the words of the great American poet Jimmy Buffett…….” I live too far north, too cold Jimmy never made it to my city. When you can remember the place and time you first heard an album you know it had an effect on you. Take care.

[@saylorgirl799]

@@bobk18 Absolutely true. Thanks. And you as well, friend. 🙂

[@Florida-Zukin83]

My dad introduced me to Jimmy growing up in the 80’s. He was a Ranger in the Army and I remember him singing this song often as he was getting ready for work in the mornings and polishing his boots. However, I never heard this song by JB because my dad never had the album until years and years later. It was like once I officially heard JB sing it that I fell in love with the song all over again. One of the greatest songs ever written! I know this is odd but it’s true 😂 RIP Jimmy

[@Tom-fo5ce]

Thanks Jimmy. Turns out we loved you all along.

[@scottstrain8388]

Awesome!! I'd never heard of this film; it's a treasure to find it, especially after hearing of such a loss. RIP Jimmy Buffett Thanks for all of the smiles and all of the songs, in the past, now and in the future. A legend never dies :)

[@jawbonelive3813]

One of my favorite JB songs. These videos are gold Delaney!

[@terrydenery7078]

One of my favorites, too! You got to trust your intuition.

[@dougowen9873]

Jimmy past that "60 good years" long ago as did I but damn, it's just a number, he still rocks ever since I first ran across his talent in 1975, thanks for the ride Jimmy, it has been grand and it ain't done yet!!!

[@comfortcoolengineering4789]

Jimmy Buffett..... An American classic!

[@mariomedina163]

My favorite buffet song. My father always said this was my song, except I'm a sailor stuck in the mountains cause my money all ran out haha.

[@geoffcreswell6345]

I love this song. I used to work in Africa and it even applied there. Thank you. I’m sorry you lost them. I’m sorry we all did.

[@suncoastandy5263]

OMG Ms Delaney! You're recording for posterity here. Good daughter! You bring things out he'd never share with anyone other than you - his trusted daugther! Thank you for sharing! He is after all, a pirate starting to look at 80 and his story needs to be told in detail! There's so many stories, you can make a career out of them. One story I remember is the gulf coast oil spill benefit concert when he showed up and another guy who was supposed to be there didn't? It was your dad's day! There was magical power there, one of his best! PS - Your mom is an absoulte beauty which rubbed off on you, your dad is lucky to have her, and they're both blessed to have you as their daughter. Thank you for surviving fame so far and I believe you are becoming a good story teller. It may not be comfortable for you, but keep working at it, you have great things ahead!

[@brucewayne3602]

the supreme story from the supreme raconteur ... a brilliant poet & musician has created a BUFFETT NICHE which is unmatched ... my hope is that a book with the words to all the songs is forthcoming ... perfect project for Delaney !!!

[@TeeGreen222]

And now he’s gone. And here we are. Plowing straight ahead, come what May ❤️

[@maryroberts589]

​@@TeeGreen222we are so bless to have these treasures to watch & listen to! He will be with us always!!

[@TomEllistonMusic]

Great song and a favorite. I play this ()and many other Jimmy tunes) at my gigs and go right into Havana Daydreaming, and I finish with the last line: " And there's a cowboy in the jungle". Work well as a medley.

[@grahamclews1571]

These videos that Jimmy's daughter made are magic.

[@gabrielatwork7843]

I can’t imagine a world where there was no Jimmy Buffett. Like a bad SciFi novel. What would a beach trip actually be like? Whatever he brought us, that vacation feeling. I cherish the day I learned you don’t have to go anywhere to go there. We are all rolling with the punches, but glad there was a Jimmy Buffett along this reality. Oh and yes, thank you Delaney for doing this series. Well done. Thank you.

[@ThePinnacleGroup09]

thank you Delaney.. I am so grateful for this history.. your commentary and bond between Dad and daughter..priceless

"A bronco ride to a 10 ft tide just had to learn how to roll" that just about says it all ... Thanks Kindly

I just cannot speak yet, my heart is still so broken 💔..Delaney, thank you so much for sharing your dad with us all right now, and through the years…I was very fortunate to meeting him, working for him , and had my picture taken with him that I will treasure until my dying day..so too am battling skin cancer, not quite like he had, but radiation will be constant for the next few months…Use your voice to advocate if you are able..my condolences to you and your entire family, and parrotheads across the community!

[@jamesadams7212]

I'm so glad these videos are out there. It's nice to have Jimmy in my living room telling me about his songs. Fins Up. Bubbles Up.

[@markmclaughlin2690]

Life long Gulf Coast resident, grew up in Bay St Louis. When I was in the Army far from home I always listened to Jimmy., especially when I was homesick. Cowboy in the Jungle always helped me when I felt like I was out of place far from home. Your music kept me grounded, I just plowed straight ahead.

[@ironnerd8336]

This is one of the most undersung channels on the web. I love that it documents the heart of the songs.

For the record... I would buy either a DVD of all these SYDKBH Videos (and more maybe) or an Audio CD... I think many people would.

[@knittiotsavant]

[@LenaScott-numoto1]

Delaney, thank you so much! This collection of videos, songs, satires and photos really makes an ordinary admirer such as myself feel like I was there with you guys. What a fantastic guy Jimmy was with such a fascinating life. His pure emotion he expresses/feels as he remembers Groovy and those times is truly felt and now we’re singing his songs and fondly remembering him in a similar way and how he made us feel with his stories, lyrics and concerts. Here’s to you Jimmy, what an extraordinary soul you were on the big round ball, sail on sir.

I have always loved this Buffett song. It was great to hear some of the background and a new rendition. I wish he could have had 90 good years. It brought a tear to me eye hearing that line. My dad was a parrot head and passed away last year at the same age as Jimmy. Thanks for sharing these moments. I miss Jimmy and my father, I hope they are fishing together.

Always brings a smile to my face. RIP JIMMY

[@heatherboothby6627]

This is the song I always end up singing in the shower !😜

[@kentexican5844]

Me as well! At least back when I was in Afghanistan, when the hum of the generators was enough "white noise" to drown out my awful voice and keep from waking up my hooch mates that were still sleeping further down the passageway.

I don't think Jimmy wants them to make a cash-cow out of him. A fan of nearly 50 years we are connected to Jimmy Buffett.

Thank you so much for these wonderful videos. I have probably been to 30+ Jimmy Buffett concerts since 1977, and just recently bought one of his new Martin signature guitars.

[@kentexican5844]

I can't carry tune to save my life, and my knowledge of that fact has helped save many an ear over many a year. I simply do not sing out loud in too many places, with a rare exception being where "adult" beverages might be served and those times are few and far between. They weren't serving adult beverages in Afghanistan in 2010-2011 but damned if in those wee hours when none of my crew were up and about, this was one of about five JB tunes that buffetted my brain and kept finding its way to my own (?) voice. It's like I didn't have a choice ... like I was talkin (singing?) in tongues. It was just crazy because in those times (at least in my mind), I didn't sound half-bad; which kinda told me it was way past time for me to get back home.... She's a railroad lady, just a little bit shady ... On a bus to Kentucky, and home once again.

[@kentexican5844]

Did Jimmy Buffett save my life? 'Hard to say. His songs surely made my life a little bit better and I'd like to believe I was a better, more kind person because of Buffett songs. Thank you Jimmy!
