The Doors channel is the official RUclips home of classic Doors live performances, The Doors albums, and contemporary performances and content honoring The Doors featuring John Densmore and Robby Krieger.
With an intoxicating, genre-blending sound, provocative and uncompromising songs, and the mesmerizing power of singer Jim Morrison’s poetry and presence, The Doors had a transformative impact not only on popular music but on popular culture.
The Doors’ arrival on the rock scene in 1967 marked not only the start of a string of hit singles and albums that would become classics, but also of something much bigger - a new and deeper relationship between creators and audience. Refusing to be mere entertainers, the Los Angeles quartet relentlessly challenged, confronted and inspired their fans, leaping headfirst into the heart of darkness while other bands warbled about peace and love. Though they’ve had scores of imitators, there’s never been another band quite like them.

One of the most complete, perfect songs ever written and performed.
Perfectly stated
The first good song to take lsd. Hence the doors of perception.
@@tdb4763 What?
Facts
without doubt
well put
Don't want to take away credit from Jim Morrison, he was a genius of his time, but the Doors just wouldn't be the Doors without Manzarek's masterful key playing. His playing makes this and the rest of their music instantly recognizable.
Absolutely! :-)
I was saying something similar to some co-workers a few years back, but took it a bit further. I said that The Doors were one of those few bands that were a real band, that if you took out any member and replaced them with somebody else that it would be a completely different band.
@@dscharlesworth1 Very true. Listen to what Robbie is doing on guitar. Never obtrusive, but exactly what fits for the song.
The unique blend of all 4 made that impossible to recreate feeling in their music
True that!
Adding the "rain effect" made this a timeless classic. Deep, dark, poetic with tragedy and hope all infused. Love it
The most blues class act of the late sixties and early seventies. timeless and irreplaceable.
It was real rain recorded
@@blackberrycobbler4me Very, Very Cool....

It's fall, 2021. Was sitting in my truck right next to the beach in Ocean Beach, Ca. I could hear the waves and there was a wicked lightning storm all around that night. This song was playing and for a few minutes, it was synchronicity.
yep riding down OB from upland calf thou desert early 1970s see my grand parents reminds of this song
Also a trucker, in Scotland. This is a midnight drive in a storm tune😉🏴
I’m from SD and OB is my go to beach
Are you serious? How Awesome. Yes! Total etherial moment. It's a shame though at the same time.
@@SpaceAce1993Same!
First heard this in a little bar in Ostend Belgium called Sloopys.I was 17 .I’m now 67.And it still blows me away.All time great.
Bonjour. J'ai entendu les Doors la première fois en 1972. C'était '' Stranges days ''. J'ai aujourd'hui 63 ans et j'aime toujours autant les Doors. Portez-vous bien. 🎶🍺🇨🇵🆓🍷
I was 4 years old in 1971 when this song came out.
...wow...!
Nice sr.
@@jamosh1967 Ad Jim was only 27. He looked twice that.
Man, The Doors are timeless. Pure Rock n Roll.
Rock blues right?
Jazz. 😊
Fan di Undertaker EXACTLY if you don't hear blues in that track you're DELUSIONAL
@IiIiIiIiIiIodkeis if you want to say Rock I guess but that track that is almost entirely rhythm and blues.
It's pure 60s
Robbie Krieger - probably the most underrated guitar player ever. Every riff a masterstroke.
I couldn't agree more, what a player, great riffs he knew how to vibe & he knew exactly when less is more. I remember reading Jim saying "Robbie doesn't get enough credit". The first song Robbie wrote was "Light My Fire" an unbelievable talent.
One of best singers ever. Such a bluesy soulful voice.
SUUUURE !!!!!
I was a Vietnam Vet, 2 tours Airborne, love the music.
God bless you, and thank you.
Thank you sir
You still are a vet! Always will be. Thank you for your sacrifice. My pops is a vet also. 101st airborne
@@richardcerda6667 godbless you’re father! I’m Canadian but I can always respect a man who served and protected this country ✊✊
I’m not even an American but god bless you and thank you for your service ✊ my respect goes to you.
No fucking words can describe the magical feeling of this song.... So much darkness, love, and romance.
It is "Riders on the Storm" by The Doors
The song is a about a serial killing hitchhiker. Youre way way off
@@ricovali9245 There are a couple of lines that MAY be a reference to a specific killer (can't remember the name), but that's it. There's no indication that it's explicitly about one single thing.
I agree...Also it was the last song Jim ever recorded. What Beautiful legacy! Life - as art - cast on a sheet of...vinyl.
@@ricovali9245 The song is about several things, The idea that we're born against our will, the killer on the road like you said, and the simple feeling of being loved. Its a hearty song.
Driving in a thunder story listening to this song is epic and timeless
This incredible masterpiece by the doors just makes me want to get in a car on a dark and rainy night in the middle of the summer and just drive through the back roads of America to get away from all my problems and just experience things i have never experienced before. I just want to live.
This summer...do it.... you'll never regret it unless you don't get out there.... it's what I do every couple weeks...saves my sanity
I'm right there with you. Let's ride!
WHO ARE HERE TO LISTEN IT AGAIN IN 2024 🃏🃏🃏
listening now
me
Yeah, man. Mixed in with some Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin while I edit some photos and my dog snores his head off. 😁
As it’s storming 👌
Here baby
I slept and this song came on the radio and I heard this in a dream. Definitely one of my best dream.
@Ashton Pickering I was trapped in my room with my sibling and there was a loud storm outside. The electricity kept going out and the TV spelt out some weird words.
Dear Beta Tod: whereby some reason, you've oppened somehow your own door. No botter, hope it had happens on full moon, like Jim himself would has wanted...!
@@pedropolanco9042 maybe it was that in gibberish language.
I was 14 when this came out and I remember sitting in the kitchen doing my homework whilst listening to this on radio Luxembourg, the coolest station on the radio. 208 longwave with the music fading in and out but it was the way it was back then.
I'm 14 years old
Can only imagine but this must have made experience this and other great songs like it feel almost unreal, like a miracle in a not spiritual way.
Brilliant
One of my dad's favorite songs. Monsoon season here in Tucson doesn't feel complete until this song comes on at least ONCE somehow. The perfect jam for late night driving, cruising through the rain, or enjoying a cloudy, dreary day.
Your dad sounds like one cool cat. ❤️💪🔥
Ditto!
And we are still waiting up here in Central Phoenix for a proper Monsoon to show up to play this with!
Absolutely 💯
Just looked this up cause it came on the radio while I was driving home in a pitch-black, windy nighttime rainstorm up here in the woods of Maine. It was euphoric to say the least
Great Music never dies. This is one that never will.
my favorite song of the band! everything on this is pure magic! R.ip Jim Morrison (1943-1971)
Hello 👋🏻 nice to meet you Carlos, hope you’re safe and well?
A classic, what more needs to be said? Imagine what more the Doors could have produced in the 70s if Jim Morrison had not passed away in 1971
Sad and surreal, hauntingly beautiful and far away was how I felt when I first listened to this song in 1971. I still feel the same way in 2022. This is the mark of all powerful music. Timeless!!
The older I get the more I love this wonderful poetry to outstanding music.
Hello 👋🏻 nice to meet you Cynthia, hope you’re safe and well?
@@cheryldylan9506 stop doing that to people you don't know it can make them scared 😨.
I first heard The Doors in 1979 at the tender age of 10., fell instantly in love with Jim's poetic lyrics, set to some of best music ever conceived. Now at almost 54, I love it even more.
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out alone
Riders on the storm
There's a killer on the road
His brain is squirmin' like a toad
Take a long holiday
Let your children play
If ya give this man a ride
Sweet memory will die
Killer on the road, yeah
Girl, ya gotta love your man
Girl, ya gotta love your man
Take him by the hand
Make him understand
The world on you depends
Our life will never end
Gotta love your man, yeah
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan
Riders on the storm

...intimate realities facts, from we all should be concious awaken through... just in order of breakin' parallels... To the other side, my friend...!
It's "sweet family will die"
This whole album is timeless
Bought it right away - that was 71 or 72.
Still is listening to it - 23.
This mix of rock, blues, jazz and sadness, Jim’s voice, keyboard and guitar makes it in-temporal.
same here bro
A lot of their songs/albums were AMAZING. Morrison Hotel and Soft Parade are my favorites
I’m with you, 1947 here.
Always loved the influence of jazz in this composition, especially in the exceptional keyboards.
Ray and Robbie were jazz guys.
@@billvill61 it was ray and John, robbie had classical guitar training before he started playing electric guitar.
In the whole Album , actually
I remember listening to this on my dad's old vinyls in the basement as a kid... Now me and my 10 year old are listening while we wait for school to start.
I met Ray Manzarek in an Ace Hardware in St. Helena Ca in the early 2000's. I didn't recognize him and while we were standing in line, I said "Has anyone ever told you that you look like Ray Manzarek?" He replied: "Yes, my wife says that all the time." Great memory.
you are lucky
that's great
That must have been a magical feeling! I met John Densmore in the mid 90s when he played a solo drum show at my college campus, University of South Dakota of all places! I wrote for the college newspaper at the time and was invited to the after-show mixer where only about 20 people were there. I walked right up to John, shook his hand and proceeded to tell him about a play I was writing in my creative writing class inspired by the Doors music. John smiled and then said, "If you make it to Broadway, call me up!" Still to this day I am amazed at my luck that day meeting him. Years later I was also able to see the Doors play in concert with Ian Astbury, which was phenomenal. The Doors played for about 2 1/2 hours and the band let people get up on the stage and dance. Very fun memorable experience.
@Tony E TWICE HERE...(STRANGE DREAMZ)
James McKnight what ah story 👍👍
Without a doubt my favorite Doors song
Eh, I prefer "People are strange"
This song is soooo haunting.... and beautiful. The last song Jim ever recorded with the band. The ending is so eerie, you can almost see Jim himself fading away.....
The Doors are the gold standard for the best in American rock music, and this song is arguably their pinnacle. Also, it's the final song on their final album. What a final statement!
Supposedly it was the last song Jim Morrison ever recorded, pretty cool.
Their hit to bust ratio is outta this world! Like all other artists, i can find a few songs on their albums that i dont like. With the doors, theres maybe one song per album that i dont like. Thats why i cant call myself a beatles fan. I like some of their songs, but i dislike waaaaaay more. Same with the stones!!!
The gold standard for the best in the World rock music, I would rather say.
I wont deny what you say but Metallica and Alice in Chains are kinda untouchable as well.
Man... the band was so tight on this classic song. Manzarek's amazing keyboard play sets the tone, and they just go from there. Incredible set of musicians. Everyone talks mostly about Morrison, but let's not forget the 3 guys behind him.
Right - also bass guitarist Jerry Scheff is not credited but is part of the groove - in fairness, he played a bass line created by Manzarek.
@@gordonhuskisson8809 - yep, give credit where credit is due. Shame he did not get his name on the album liner notes.
ES UN CLASICO TEMASSO
@@gordonhuskisson8809- and it was a b*tch to play on the bass guitar... easy on keyboards
There were two additional musicians. One of them was Elvis' bass player.
It isn't that strange to be a loner. It isn't that lonely to be a stranger either.
Shit I would say to myself homeless going across the country
It is strange to be a loner who is also an acid fiend, drunk and narcissist who threw it all away for more booze, more acid and just had to cheat and cheat until he finally needed Pamela but it was too late and now all the loner does is blame the heroin she was shooting up and giving him too while over in Paris.
Yes, it's a strange thing being a loner from Florida with a naval dad who never understood you so you move to sunny LA and do more acid while discovering film at UCLA and meeting your greatest friend who just happened to be this great, nerdy musician named Ray who carried you and your reputation even after you checked out.
Because you were a loner. And it was strange. So strange...
@@qwj68boots history is so rich
Amen brother
@@sethdominickortiz Yeah Man !
Doesn't matter where I am or what I'm doing, if this song comes on the radio it stops me in my tracks and I just HAVE to listen to the very last rain drenched chord - and no other song I've ever heard makes me do that. Pathos has never been so perfectly put to music.
I cry every time I hear this. Having lived at this time, and so grateful to God I wasn't drafted and sent to Vietnam.
Right on. Don't know why, but I always match up this song with a overnight heavy rain and in the morning sun up burning away the clouds, but everything is still wet.
Its crazy how many people come back to this everyday... this song is a masterpiece!!
Every time I listen to this masterpiece I have a goosebumps from beginning.
Hello 👋🏻 nice to meet you, hope you’re safe and well?
@@cheryldylan9506 hello there, thank you, I am good, how about you?
@@dafaceman2884 I’m very well thanks for asking, glad you’re okay.Nice connecting with you here.
I'm from New Jersey 🇺🇲.
Best piano "walk down" in rock and roll.....
I wouldn't underestimate the importance of john Desmore in the group, i like his drumming
It's raining outside... somehow this song is so perfect.
Every storm, I play this song for the family. It's our tradition
1971, what a great year for music.
My first memory of this song, I was about 11 years old I was going to Cedarpoint Ohio with my friend’s family. This came on the radio and all eight of us in the car broke out in song. ❤I have loved the Doors ever since. 😊
Probably the best keyboard solo in rock history
RIP Ray Manzarek. Also see Light My Fire.
I remember my Uncle Martin told me when i Was 15 yrold 'hey kid,listen to this' while we were driving through the Desert highway to GUADALAJARA CITY. and i remember thinking in my mind, about those sounds like 'Damn,whats this!!!!' it Was just another concept of music to me.. but all that Album fit in through that trip.. Then LA. WOMAN started and it blew my mind.. I REALLY ENJOYED THAT MOMENT.. and now that he have passed away im thankful to him,for showing me WHAT REAL MUSIC IS.. AND SHOULD BE.. 👌❤ I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER HIM FOR THAT.. ❤😎
No matter what happens in my life good or bad,i always come back to this song.
This band is so far ahead of their time that I sometimes think these guys were time travelers who cut straight from the future to the 60s and decided to form The Doors, so they made a deal like "let's try to play to their rhythm to don't scare them."
Also Jim was practically the blueprint for most frontmen afterwards
I’m Jim Morrison aka George Washington and I’m Jesus Christ ahahahh I’m really a time traveler ;)
My Doors are closed now what?
Im only 16, so im definitely wayy younger than half the people in this comment section.
But this song really itches the brain in a good way, its so good
Yeah, I'm 17 and I enjoy this song too
@@borshonline Rock on brothers, you are into some of the best records ever recorded !
Welcome to the club, young ones! Enjoy!
Since 1965 I have been hip to these guys At 75 I am still ALL IN
1947 here
One of the best songs of all time, everything about this song is just perfect, it feels like a trip in a misty and rainy day, everything is built so perfectly, a really trippy song,love it!!!
I first heard the song on the radio while I was in a car on a motorway with my father when I was 5 years old,outside it was thunder and lightning and it was raining in buckets.However around that time I could't speak english,but I felt this mystical feeling and shivers went down my spine.Meanwhile I m 55 and it still feels the same.This song is not just a song,it is a revalation~[I was born on the first of december in 1966] Into this house we born.....Thank You Jim,Ray,Robbie And John🙏Namaste♾
Jim Morrison’s final song, and an excellent one too. Rest In Peace: 1943 to 1971
Good on you Rhino for uploading your own music, and not disabling comments like all of the auto generated playlist. At least we can discuss the good oldies from one record label.
God bless Ray. Ray was the glue. Ray was the motion. Ray was, though he would never admit it, The DOORS.
I wanted a song to play to my baby in utero that I could also play after they were born to sooth them to sleep as a reminder of the womb. I chose this song because I absolutely love it and I’m so glad I did because I will never get tired of playing it to my baby to send them to sleep… I always discover something new in the many beautiful layers each time we listen to it - as for baby, he especially likes the keyboard…
That’s so wholesome
Thanks! Ya went and made me cry,,, 😢 lucky kid 👍
Impossible to not like this timeless Blues Rock classic.
My absolute favorite song from the doors and one of my many favorite songs to listen to when I am drunk & stoned out of my mind!
Me too
You'd enjoy it more sober.....
This song will forever remind me of rain in NFS
Ft snoop dog
Già è davvero fantastisco quello scenario con auto e citta sotto l'acqua,e come sempre partiva questa canzone
@MrBrenman21 la discografia completa non la so ma li ascolto da anni li conosco abbastanza bene
Nine days straight of rain here in Santa Cruz, California. I know what you mean.
NFS is how i heard this song lol them neons
Vier mannen op de juiste tijd op de juiste tijd bij elkaar, goud man!
Zonder één van hen had dit niet gelukt, zo simpel is het!
My late man loved the doors ,and this always remind me of him the doors ,Jim Morrison best band ever ,long live the doors ❤️
Just finished listening to the album for the first time. Easily one of the best albums of all time. My favorite Doors album along with their debut. Long live the Doors!! 🙏💗💫
So much depth. It pierces the soul...
One of my favorite rain-songs
can hear the whisper so good behind the vocals.. turn it upp
One of the greatest song so far...the voice, the music the atmosphère, so brilliant ❤
Was listing to this just now; both my kitties and Boxer dog perked up their ears and looked up at the ceiling…they thought it was truly storming outside. The Doors could recreate nature so perfectly…wow!!
😻
This Doors number is a true classic for eternity. The brilliant but tragic Jim Morrison had 3 of the finest musicians with him.Ray Manzarek RIP Ray miss you man.Robby Krieger great guitarist !!!!!!John Densmore one of rock music's finest drummers Those 3 just blended together so brilliantly. Their music will live forever !!!!!!!!!!!!!
I listened to this on repeat, driving for 4 hours in dense fog....it was chillingly awesome😊 Its the most played music track I have ever listened to. Jim Morrison and The Doors were genius❤
How lucky are we to witness this collective genius. Think what they could have done given another 10 years.
Jim seemed to be a fat drunk by the end. He wouldn't have lasted 10 more years. But I understand your point.
I just moved across country and one of my favorite vintage stores in my hometown plays this song, and hearing it instantly transports me back to that tiny cramped space filled to the brim with cool stuff. ❤️
They totally nailed it on this take. Such a classic. 35 years ago. My first acid trip. When it hit they put this on. My mind exploded. Seemed to last like 30 minutes... When they hit the breakdown in the middle time stopped!!!
Love the jazzy way they made Riders on the Storm along with those wonderful sound effects of rain falling down and thunder in the distance. Perfection ❤🎹🎼🎸🥁⚡💦☔💧
Rip..Jim nd Ray these Legends will never be forgotten.
Yes... they are unforgettable and timeless...
My older sister says I used to sing this when it was originally released. I was three at the time. Been my favorite band ever since.
One of the top 10 songs of all time!
One of the all time great songs. Robbie Krieger, great player.
A different time and a different world, it only we could turn back time. Love this song.
YES.. if we Cld only turn Bk the hands iof Time... 😥 😭
I like this song since I was 13 years old. It has a haunting and intimate sense of loneliness in it which I can still recall. It is a master piece.
All-time Classic of Iconic Proportions ! Jim was above everyone back then and he still is today !
His voice reminds one of a life without one. Comfort...always coming with a gentle touch.
I love this song so much
One of the best songs ever performed
The ending still give me goosebumps 51 years later
I was 8. I heard it with my silly need for speed game but I was hooked. I still love listening to the song to this day and it’s great seeing people still listening to this song since it came out from before I was even born. Wow.
I’m Jim Morrison and I first heard my music on that need for speed game around the same age haha
A song that has its own entity prowling around living off the energy it never ceases to conjure. Loved it and thrilled to it since the first time I heard it entering my early teens.
This song is my favorite to listen to while it’s raining and I’m on my porch.
Greatest band of All time, PERIOD.
As good as it gets, the keys are sublime, the atmosphere and rhythm....pretty hard to think of a better moment in music gold
I just want you to know that Riders on the Storm was always our vacation anthem on the way out of town.
One of my all time top ten. Been listening for 50 years.
This is like rain ASMR.The Doors were ahead of their time 💯
Amazing after growing old just how much this song hits home more than ever.
Greatest beginning to a song, ever! Wonderful keyboard playing by Ray.
Absolutely agree with you 100% because I feel the same way, ray manzarek has always been my favorite keyboardist and I think he is the greatest keyboardist in rock music history!
Ray played the rain?
@@jolyondavis3519 yes he did the sound effects of a thunderstorm on the keyboard, absolutely epic!
@@jolyondavis3519 Sure did. It's in the opening keyboard piece of Riders on the Storm.
@@danielwillette3895 thats ace]
Just a superb sound from that era..Here I am some 50 years later still enjoying this...
The first time I heard this masterpiece was sitting in the radio shack of my US Navy Ship in the middle of the night cruising off the California coast! Couldn't have been a better sitting!😊
one of the most mystical songs the doors have done, especially towards the end, the storm and lighting puts you in a trance, always the doors, rest in peace jim, ride easy.
Just a pleasure to listen Ray Manzareck..magic organist....giving tempo and rythm...in this dark song....the ennemy is in the road...brraaoouumm
Con esta canción conocí a The Doors cuando tenía 14 años, hoy tengo 40 y la escucho como la primera vez.🖤
Yo tambien la escuche x primera vez a los 14, hoy tengo 67 y la sigo amando.
@@jorgevisnovezky9670 Entonces habrían pasado 53 años desde que la escuchaste la primera vez, y la canción salió hace tan sólo 49 años
Yo también. Entre al pub de un amigo, tenía 16 años. El pub todavía estaba cerrado pero sonaba este tema y fue mi primer registro de The Doors. Pregunté por la música y ahi supe de ellos. Fue increíble x q además estaba bajo el efecto de unos hongos alucinógenos parecidos al lsd,a mi gusto mejor.
Que chimba to tambien
X2
It shows the complexity of their music!
The Doors were so unique. Jim's strong baritone vocals ; Ray's keyboard mastery and covering the bass with his left hand on a Fender Rhodes key bass.
An absolute masterpiece for sure.
R.I.P Ray Manzarek, you will be missed!
There is no denying the music of the 70's... it stirred your consciousness! The Doors, in my opinion, were epic!
The Doors were far more a 60s band than a 70s band. Js
One of The Gr8est Songs EVER Written.
+1. One of my favourites too!
With the events now we are Riders on the Storm...
