I consider myself a purist when it comes to music but I love this video. It's one of the best produced music videos that I've seen (and I worked at MTV) plus the editing is seamless. Jim was a rebel back in his day, and who are the modern day rebels? I'd say skateboards are on the top of that list. Most importantly, this video does a beautiful job showing that The Doors music can still stand on it's own and have a place within a new generation 40 years later.
Very cool video. Brings the song up to date with today's younger Doors fans and us first geners as well. Like the edit. Reminds me of the old AM radio days where songs were cut down to "3:05". Thanks for posting
Having been to Venice so many times, and I live an hour from Hollywood, LA, I think this whole video really captures the spirit of it all. I definitely think though there is a lot that it doesn't quite capture either, just gotta experience it to know.
Sweeeeet.... Love the video... Jim would be proud.... Growing up in Ca back in the 70s & 80s were the best and worst of times... I miss it. Wish I had a time machine.
With alcohol and drugs and slightly slurring his words, Jim Morrison's voice on this song and some other LA WOMAN tracks had just enough of a shopworn sound to make for a perfect blues voice. This perfect blues voice, along with the excellent musicianship and writing only helped to create one of the most bluesy and one of the greatest of the six studio albums by the Morrison-era Doors' albums ever...
Love it! I'm 43 and I bought me a kick ass skateboard after watching this video! I read John Densmore personally edited the original LA Woman track and this video. It's a great vid.
Love the video. While I personally don't like this new "radio" version I understand why it was done and what they're aiming for here. Anything that helps to get the music of the Doors to newer generations is a good thing. Good job!
Niceee He points out *The Doors* Head Nod, nuff love respect yaaa boy. No idea who these guys are but the song, feel, vibes, the men and all those behind the music from decades ago wow love this stuff! Why was it short? Wtf owell not bad at all, of course cannot please all. Peace, Love, Respect!!!
They are re releasing LA Woman which is The Doors best album. I don't see a problem making a new music video for a new generation, that's just smart. Cool Video btw
having casually met Robbie Krieger about 20 years ago, this is what I'd expect him to look like today. LA is the major topic of the film/skating is the way to show off the neighborhoods and dark and threatening street culture. Good work.
I just read in the "Doors Examiner" that the man on the motorcycle with the basket on back, is Jac Holzman, president of elektra...It says that is the way he brought records around back in the day of the Doors....I did not notice that first time I watched it...That's cool....

OK let me say that I was honored to meet Robby Krieger recently and that he and Ray still personify The Doors music to this day even without Jim. Robby even had on a Doors themed Hawaiian shirt! But unfortunately while this video shows what LA and Venice Beach (where on that fateful night Jim met Ray and showed him his Moonlight Drive lyrics) are like today, they cut out the entire breakdown "Mr. Mojo Risin" section of the song. Also "Hair is burning" is about LA's fire's n should also be in!
@jymwrite My pleasure...I LOVE the "Doors Examiner"!!!! I am fairly new and read every article - It's is great for H-U-G-E Doors fans like me!!!! Keep up the great work...
John Densmore, Robby Krieger & Jac Holzman all appear in this video. I know it was just 10 years ago, but what a great time to be alive. Nobody's on their damn phone.
2 de las mejores canciones ("LA WOMAN y RIDERS ON THE STORM") de la HISTORIA DEL GRUPO Y DEL ROCK no puedes "editarlas" de esa manera; es un sacrilegio musical.
i remember the last june evening when i was so angry at my girlfriend, she hurt me a little bit. i didn't know what to do with myself. And then i looked at my old skateboard, played L.A Woman on my iPod and rode down the empty streets in the night with the doors. I felt free, i felt really happy
Bom eu iria clicar em 'gostei' em qualquer coisa lançada por the doors, pois eu amo, eu não entendi muito bem a moral dos esqueitistas, pois não sei muita coisa sobre Los Angeles. Confesso que não entendi muito bem o que o clipe nos faz pensar. Well, I would click 'like' anything thrown by The Doors, because I love, I do not quite understand the moral of the skaters as they do not know much about Los Angeles. I confess I did not understand very well what the clip makes us think, but I loved it.
I really liked the idea, cruising throughout venice, l.a, sunset strip where the doors were born. I think that maybe since its saying l.a woman, they should had put a female skater in there too. Good vid. I like
i think it shoulda at least showed some old footage of Jim performing or omething and this video nor skateboarders dont match the song, there no L.A women in it like come one!

Go away troll 😈
i love how robby and john are in the video
Lo mejor de haber leido Boulevard fue sin duda la nueva musica.
Coolest video I've seen in a long time John and Robbie

The Doors were gods of music that rode the peak of the 60’s phenomenal tidal wave great video guys great to see the remaining Doors 👌🤘👍👊
Having been to Venice so many times, and I live an hour from Hollywood, LA, I think this whole video really captures the spirit of it all. I definitely think though there is a lot that it doesn't quite capture either, just gotta experience it to know.
Thank you The Doors for this timeless song
Sweeeeet....
Love the video...
Jim would be proud....
Growing up in Ca back in the 70s & 80s were the best and worst of times...
I miss it.
Wish I had a time machine.
What a light hearted yet powerful interpretation of the song. It's like Dylan had written the song just for them. Keep going, change will come✊
It's great to see the music live on through a whole new generation!

queenhwy loves this video! As a long time Doors fan, you can't go wrong! Great song! Long live JIM MORRISON!
Love it! I'm 43 and I bought me a kick ass skateboard after watching this video! I read John Densmore personally edited the original LA Woman track and this video. It's a great vid.
I'm watching this in 2022 and it truly breaks my heart watching LA basically collapse.....
Praise to your cameraman(men) and your editing team. They did such a great job!
Excellent if not the best interpretation of the thing!!!!
love the doors and the skaters in this good job guys.
Forget the water we must ride
Love the video. While I personally don't like this new "radio" version I understand why it was done and what they're aiming for here. Anything that helps to get the music of the Doors to newer generations is a good thing. Good job!
hell yeah my favorite band ever i love it specifically cause of the remaining members
Niceee He points out *The Doors* Head Nod, nuff love respect yaaa boy. No idea who these guys are but the song, feel, vibes, the men and all those behind the music from decades ago wow love this stuff! Why was it short? Wtf owell not bad at all, of course cannot please all. Peace, Love, Respect!!!
A perfect tribute to a timeless classic. Nicely done.
They are re releasing LA Woman which is The Doors best album. I don't see a problem making a new music video for a new generation, that's just smart. Cool Video btw
The Doors is a great groovy band! This is a very nice tribute!
the doors are and forever will be on of the greatest bands of all time. we miss u jim!!!!
having casually met Robbie Krieger about 20 years ago, this is what I'd expect him to look like today.
LA is the major topic of the film/skating is the way to show off the neighborhoods and dark and threatening street culture. Good work.
Very very interesting how they try to make the rest of the band look ''cool'' with the Mustang and the skaters etc, i like it thanks.
Los felicito, excelente video.
Guaaaauu uff q bueno guaasuuu gran video y gracias por subirlo the doors forever
Gracias rey lagarto por tus históricas canciones 🤟🤘

I am glad now... The Doors are still living! :))
Great update!
Loved the last trick
@ms3pugz Thanks for the mention! & thank you for reading The Doors Examiner!
Jim
Its funny when some people dont realize Robbie and John are both in this video. Robbie used to skate and had a ramp in his backyard.
this video is just perfect
HIMNO de The Doors! Una máquina del tiempo para ir allí...
AWESOME video!!!
I just read in the "Doors Examiner" that the man on the motorcycle with the basket on back, is Jac Holzman, president of elektra...It says that is the way he brought records around back in the day of the Doors....I did not notice that first time I watched it...That's cool....

Loved it
that's just AMAZING! :D
The Doors and Skateboarding... That's how I started :)
Food for your ears ❤️
That’s Jac Holzman (founder of Epic) on the Vespa who discovered The Doors
this was freakin' awesome!
Muito bom show...fantastico!!! (Suspeito pra falar adoro The Doors)
I LOVE IT

L.A. Woman never gets old

With this track every videos it works

Perceive . . . as the vision perceives, the arrow of waves will land somewhere!
John Densmore, Robby Krieger & Jac Holzman all appear in this video. I know it was just 10 years ago, but what a great time to be alive. Nobody's on their damn phone.

Fantastic
Awesome!!
itS really a great song
Is that Jac Holzman on the Vespa at 2:26?
Have you seen M.Pokora (french singer) on that video ? around 1min 10.
El Poison !

jim è vivo e cammina con noi come un amico silenzioso..sempre presente.
Great video - but I am surprised John D. approved it...would JIM have approved John?
es mas bien con el lugar actual, venice beach. Donde nacio la banda hace mas de 50 años.
Its time to do it in Tel Aviv
yup, just did and then went down to look to see if anybody commented about it. Haha, good eye.
so cool
chingonsisimo
Should have included the entire song
Love IT …..
Gread Video, Sweet Edit!
I honestly have no clue. Wish he was in it though :/
alright cool video and all but what happened to the rest of the song
A chaque fois que j’entends ce morceau, j’ai envie d’enfourcher ma moto pour tracer la route ! ✌️🤘
Where is Ray? Why He doesn't appears?
music and movement go together
who shot it
Finally i have been in Venice
Very cool man, very cool! "Awesome man!!"
never thought id see pro skaters with THE DOORS!!
@TheBadota not after you heard this song? sigh,,,
Nobody have now a respect to old music and GODS like J.M .
NOT the full version of the song. 😡 On the other hand, looks like Robbie Krieger made cameo appearances in a couple of places.
I liked it.
The music is all it is, Jims voice can still carry us.The rest is just a commercial
@losage2612 I just thought it was really random that somehow M Pokora made it in a video about/dedicated/for the Doors, that's all :)
Doesnt get better than skating around LA
@XxxkenzaxxX what do you mean ?
Dogtown 90291 love my home 🔥
*NOSTALGIA*
cool vid
1:24 Yoon! (and that other guy who looks like that guy from those films..)
i think it shoulda at least showed some old footage of Jim performing or omething and this video nor skateboarders dont match the song, there no L.A women in it like come one!
I feel freedom in this video...
who filmed/edited this?
Mr. Mojo rising?
