He loved being alive. His 3rd eye opened when he was still in his 20's and he never went off the rails because of it. Pretty cool dude. His energy is still around.
To me LA Woman is the best rock song ever. The "Mr. Mojo rising" slow to fast part is a brilliant piece of music, which takes one on an emotional high.
@@sheilalindenstein8263 ....my ex girl friend loved LA Woman also. We played the song full blast. At first some neighbors complained, but before long teenage neighbors were blasting away with 'The Doors" songs such as "Love Me Two Times". The whole freaking block became 'Doors' fans.
I saw horrible combat in Vietnam for a year, they flew us back and forth with commercial airplanes. I couldn't wait to get out of that nightmare. As the plane took off they played "Light my Fire" as we headed into the clouds on our way back home. That song will forever be burned into my memory! Thank you, Doors!
Had the pleasure of seeing Robby at a bowling alley in Destin, FL of all places and Ray in Maui shortly before he broke on through to the other side. Legend's!
Robby Kreiger and Ray Manzerek are keeping the Doors alive!! I know this is old but I just need to thank Robby for keeping the vibes going! You’re the man!! Wish I could be with my kids when they see you in Sept. Cody already bought tickets for his sister and him. I love these guys!! RIP Ray and Jim!
I grew up with The Doors. It was always about Jim. I've since come to appreciate what a clever, terrific band the rest were. Absolutely devious! The proof is their enduring legacy. Still ahead of their time all these years later. The Doors were lightning in a bottle and it wouldn't have worked without all 4.. Ray, Robbie, and John were right there with it. ALL are genius in their own right. Brilliance like this will never happen again.
Couldn't have said it better. The whole was definitely greater than the sum of its parts as I've come to appreciate more and more over the years. These guys were magic together.
Elliott -Good Ol’ Ray was ALWAYS Jim’s No. 1 Public Relations Man -He Always Spoke Positive and Highly of Jim...Always Called Jim a Brilliant Poet and a Elaborate Genius -R.i.P Ray, You Are Truly Missed as a Musician and a Kind Human ✝️
@@reesebene6082 Yes and he supported the other members as well. Here he is again pointing out that Robby wrote Light My Fire. I may know that Robby wrote it because of Ray.
4:51 I have not, but "Touch Me" came on tho. 11 pm I was merely 9 yo, on a trip to Orlando and I heard my first doors song, turns out it's my favorite doors song too.
Manzarek sounds like someone who can tell great stories Light my fire was Krueger’s song Moonlight drive an My eyes have seen you were Morrison’s first songs he sang to Manzarek.
Jake Fisher -Towards the End of the DOORS, (i Read from Different Friends/Arthurs) that Jim really Liked Singing and Listening to ‘Riders on the Storm’ and ‘Changeling’ -These Two Songs and LA Woman (TIMELESS) -Throw in ‘Road House Blues’, for Alittle Commercial KICK in that Time Capsule -ReeseB, NY
My pick would be The Crystal Ship not only it's a beautiful love song. Because the words are very poetic. But whatever songs The Doors wrote Jim Morrison & Robby Krieger, not doubt they were considered the greatest poets & songwriters of all-time. Especially when Jim Morrison wrote most of his songs & poetry.
“My favorite band dynamic is when one of the other members is the brains of the band and the lead singer is a nightmare but he’s the hot one so they can’t fire him.”
@@rev.jimjonesandthekool-aid4488 John is such a stiff guy, no fun at all. Jim was such a cool dude, but I think that Ray and Robby had huge crush on Jim, I swear :)))
..Owing to various degrading factors such as the disastrous effect various crude and loutish genres such as RAP and Hip Hop have had on drastically lowering the quality of Modern Music,the DOORS Songs are now Shining Brightly Anew as Extremely Fine and Creative Examples of Composition and Musicianship !
Would much rather hear Robbie’s version of the Doors stories than Ray. Robbie just seems like an honest, straightforward guy and doesn’t fluff the stories like Ray seems to do
I love! how Ray just love’s to tell the same stories over and over again’ thru all the years’ with the same enthusiasm’! :D!!
That's what people usually do when I get older they talk about the past
Best time of his life. And what a life.
@@TOOFERMAC53 Yeah, but this guy had skills and a voice and enthusiasm worthy of narrating a good movie or TV show.
HE PUT A DIFFERENT SPIN ON IT EVERY TIME. NEVER LET THE TRUTH GET IN THE WAY OF A GOOD YARN
He loved being alive. His 3rd eye opened when he was still in his 20's and he never went off the rails because of it. Pretty cool dude. His energy is still around.

It'll always have a special place in my heart... I love that song, especially that part. Goosebump-worthy!
Listen to it on hallucinogens!!
@@squeekyshoez7712 ......if i listen to LA woman while high, song so damn lifting that my spirit would leave this earth...lol
Exactly!! LA Woman gets your heart bumping and your soul singing!! Masterpiece!!

The Doors are and will always be my No.1 Band. Love you guys.
Fuck, I love how Ray tells stories.
I'd have to pick "When the musics over", its such a musical journey.
Amen!
Ray you are missed so much

we need to preserve the doors and this video
I knew Ray. Loved that man! Been to his house. He called me a buncha times..
LA Woman is definitely the better driving song.
O lot of people don’t know that that song was written by Robby Kriger, actually that song is one of the best songs of the doors catalog.
Ray the insufferable extrovert after all those years of being an introvert. Love ya man

I could listen to Ray tell all of the stories about everything.
when you hear your song in an elevator you know you made it - Robby Krieger
I met a music producer that met Ray I thought it was so awesome. Such a great man, god bless Ray. Let him fly high. 😇❤️❤️❤️
Gimme "Love Me Two Times" or "When The Music's Over"!
Wild Child... You're Lost, Little Girl
Beautiful songs indeed. It is so hard to choose only one song of the Doors.
Five to one--great song
Crystal Ship is awesome song--never hear it anymore
After Ray passed on Robbie said they “ are no longer a four door we are now a coup with only 2 doors “
Now Ray is happy in histime capsule ...nnyyyaiaiaiaiaiii :) Rest in peace Maestro
You nailed it! BOT is electric from the first note, and the message is the core of the Doors' existence.
See you on The Other Side, R-Man and J-Mo!
LA Woman is maybe top ten pop/rock songs of all time.
Bizarre how you can remain so famous years later and deserve it, Imagine if the Doors had of continued
You ever see the interview where Jim actually predicts EDM being the future of music.
4:51 I have not, but "Touch Me" came on tho. 11 pm I was merely 9 yo, on a trip to Orlando and I heard my first doors song, turns out it's my favorite doors song too.
Ray was the MAN 🤘🎶 r.i.p champion. What a totally humble legend.
Both Ray Manzarek R.I.P from the Doors and Frank Zappa R.I.P. You listen rock stars all day. There missed from the music business.
The Entire First album on one audio file
I could listen to these guys for hours. Krieger has that ASMR vibe.
I simply can't choose a favorite Doors song, "Moonlight Drive" is great, "Indian Summer" was the first demo recorded in '65, another great tune.
Queen of the highway
All day and all of the night would be my favourite
Manzarek sounds like someone who can tell great stories Light my fire was Krueger’s song Moonlight drive an My eyes have seen you were Morrison’s first songs he sang to Manzarek.

Krieger
when you hear your song in an elevator you know youve made it
i recently heard love me two times as an instrumental when i rode an elevator lol
I love you Ray, you are the best men,god bless your soul bro❤❤❤🙏
Great story teller
Feliciano’s version of Light is magical. I have loved it since I was a kid.
LA woman was the most modern song......it does not have a dated sound...even today.
i love these guys!
Jim and two beautiful « BROTHERS »‼️like very RAY, humor and smiles with « Light my Fire... come on baby, like my F-I-R-EEE🔥

But whatever songs The Doors wrote Jim Morrison & Robby Krieger, not doubt they were considered the greatest poets & songwriters of all-time.

Oh, yes! The Crystal Ship is so beautiful song!
It has the most sublime beginnings to a song, "Before you... " That is just magic. Also one of the many moments Jim sings just perfectly.
Love Rays voice
Too hard to pick a single doors song
Will Swagger it's like asking to choose one beatles song. it's just impossible
Will Swagger
It's impossible
Or rolling stones songs
When the Realization hits you: 5:09
No one is immune from time it robs us all .
They have/had such a great rapport

Ray
Awesome 😎 thanks brother 🙏
For one song, I would have to ponder that a bit...
Ray is older than Robbie, and somehow Ray looks like 20 years younger.
Rip mr ray
Love street
End of the night
I would choose Whiskey, Mystics, and Men or Soul Kitchen
Wonderful
Its crazy how Ray is a couple years older then Robby but seemed to have aged less than him
Overplayed where I live. Long version only
Light my fire, great elevator song! ha, ha...
He's a Heck of a keyboard player--Try and play it note for note----He really has his own style----
Never understood why Break on Through didn't do better.
That. Was great haveing just herd the sad news
Did Ray not like John he all ways says densmore and he refers to the other two brothers as Jim and Robbie ?
John is human garbage. He made jim leave. He later made Ray so stressed out that he got cancer.
Jim stole pam from john.
@@rev.jimjonesandthekool-aid4488 John is such a stiff guy, no fun at all. Jim was such a cool dude, but I think that Ray and Robby had huge crush on Jim, I swear :)))
Densmore is the most hated door.
The End, live at the Bowl, 68’.
I think I'll open a little shop. A little place where they sell things.
Why didn't they ever get a bass player.....their sound was a little thin.....that key bass did not cut it.
