It's not a song, it's an experience...
Leyend of the rock. In memorian to Ray Manzarek.
Totally
Fuck ya....one of their heaviest masterpieces...."The Soft Parade" live is another
Litanie is the word
I'm taking in the experience
All the bootlegs, all the live releases, box sets etc... - this is the best version.
Absolutely goddamn right
100%
Yes I Agree...100 percent!!!!!
The best
This is from *detroit1970* I think
Who doesn't make a million of images on his mind listening that song??
The comments are so entertaining. Doors fans remarks are very cerebral, unlike the vulgar shallow comments after most bands music. Good work Doors lovers!
pretentious, no?
@@rustedone254 Absolutely not, my good man!
@@nitrousninja882 fair enough. peace and blessings unto you
Merci, c'est vrai, nous sommes des gens sensibles. J'aime bien ce que vous dites !
Cerebral? In the most polite way, this is nonsense
Who in this Generation of 2019 can match this ? Any Rappers ? Any RocknRollas ? The visuals are on of a kind. Thanks Doors.
NO ONE
Nobody. The 1960s just had a collision of so many events that produced some indelible music. It was probably the only era that could give us a Jim Morrison.I don't expect we'll ever sed anything like that again.
No one can come close
Dead cats dead rats was irish rap. Yet I think that was clipped unto from another show. Still the Philly NY Boston Pittsburgh Detroit shows are on tube. I have box set and Boston show has some jaunty songs .whiskey,mystics and men. Mystery train.
give some time , this is still running .
My favorite version of Celebration Of The Lizard! Not To Touch The Earth is bad ass!
it;s so sad and awesome, but true...
One of the most amazing performances EVER. So powerful.
Thats what i think too
Everything was working for The Doors on this night--all cylinders were firing. The result is this transcendent masterpiece which will most likely never be matched.
It will never be never be matched.
never
Well said. Light up a doobie, put on the headphones and enjoy the Doors at their finest!
They only played this song live? 4or 5. Who can tell me a track where jim says this ia a tour de force we have benn working on?
@@shawnyoung8752 You are thinking of the NYC version of Celebration of The Lizard. It is good, but not as transcendent and mystical as this creme de la creme.
50 years on...this is still GOOD...For all time!!!!...in the year 3000..thay will still be playing this!!!!!
when a teenager I could recite this song word for word as I took many acid trips with Jim and the doors while listening to this incredible and strange song.
I've always loved this album by The Doors....Absolutely Live...but this song has always made me feel a strange nostalgia...I was 14....I'm 59 today and I still feel the same nostalgia....I love The Doors, it's my heart music group....Yesterday...Today... and Tomorrow.....
I feel the same way about this album. This is Jim's real masterpiece.
Habe 3-5mal geantwortet.HOFFE Auf jeden Fall.DAS ICH EINE ANTWORT KRIEGE.ODER ALLES GELOGEN?? SCHAU ICH OB ICH AUF GOOGLE &CO DANN WEISS ICH ES OB DAS STIMMT.ICH GLAUBE NICHT.ABER VIEL RESPEKT HABE ICH VON. IHNEN VON DOORS SIE KOMMEN AUS USA.. AUCH VIELE FOTOS VON DER BAND ...... MORRISON HOTEL IN FLORIDA SOLL KLEINES MUSEUM SEIN. BÜCHER GELESEN
Komme aus Germany Hamburg GmbH
Bin jetzt 42jahre alt viel gefeiert.durch Corona weiß man welche Kollegen man hat . 😮War 12jahre oft und heftig feiern.Und war immer ein Rumtreiber.
Wurde oft Ausgelacht und peinlich, besoffen auch.War oft im Mittelpunkt in der Discothek. Nicht weil ich super gezappelt guter Dancer.. Falsch Immer und immer wieder.Haben MICH Bloßgestellt und manchmal auch nicht.Aber viel.BEIM JIM MORRISON KONZERTE WAHREN VIELE DIE NUR DA WAREN UM ZU SEHEN WIE JIM MORRISON DURCHGEDREHT IST UND, UND.
Been listening to this since I was 14..still epic AF
Me too. And I was 14 in 1973.
Same. 14 in 2005 haha
A golden moment for the Doors. Primal primitive transcendental. Exquisitely tight playing and singing. Jim's voice at this point, 1969, still had the more melodic and emotive qualities that we hear less of in the other live recordings of this song.
This was my very best ever experience with The Doors music. Thank them all. Dead or alive. TR. Bless you.
R.I.P. Jim Morrison
(1943-1971)
Densmore was so perfect here, especially at the end of “Not to touch the Earth…"
Yes! The drumming there always moved me. So good.
at this tempo it is perfect
It was a band pal....a band
Densmore was absolutely a genius.
My parents sent this album to me at sleep over camp in 1992 at the suggestion of my younger sister....During the after lunch rest period I vividly remember laying on the top bunk in my cabin listening to this, watching the ceiling fan spin and having my fist psychedelic experience without ingesting psychedelics.
Cool parents. I always like to see the expression on people's faces if they listen to this on psychedelics. I wanted saw a woman fit her whole fist in her mouth
Always one of my favorite live albums...
Listening to this at night, everyone asleep, intently focused, makes me just want to jump up and convey some strange message that is between a snake and a lizard and a Jim Morrison. It is scary, fun, it makes you think. Absolutely Brilliant. Arguably the best thing I have ever heard.
I AM THE LIZARD KING. I CAN DO ANYTHING
I the 🦎 king, I can do anything😎
Too cool for reality. The Doors were years ahead of their time. America's greatest band!
The "time" was then.Today is a mess.
Hell's yes brother!!!!
Oh my gods this is so great..... this is sacred... this give the Doors immortality.... as long as ears can hear The Doors live.
Jim Ray robby and John on top form love that you use the word sacred all the doors music is sacred to me no other band will equal them I'm a doors fan 40 years and a music fan 50 years next year since I was 8 .
In 73 I found this album I was 14 my folks thought I joined a cult or something I had a good laugh
Leones en la calle y perros
vagabundos en celo, rabiosos, echando espuma
Una fiera enjaulada en el corazón de una ciudad
El cuerpo de su madre
pudriéndose en la tierra del verano
Huyó de la ciudad
Fue hacia el sur y cruzó la frontera
Dejó el caos y el desorden
Les dio la espalda
Una mañana se despertó en un hotel verde
Con una extraña criatura gimiendo a su lado
El sudor rezumaba de su brillante piel
¿Estamos todos?
¿Están todos aquí?
La ceremonia está a punto de comenzar
¡Despierta!
No puedes recordar dónde fue.
¿Ha terminado este sueño?
La serpiente era de oro pálido
Vidriosa y encogida
Teníamos miedo de tocarla
Las sábanas eran cálidas prisiones muertas
Y ella estaba a mi lado.
Vieja, no es … joven
Su oscuro cabello rojizo
La piel blanca y suave
Ahora ¡corre al espejo del baño!
¡Mira!
Viene hacia aquí
No puedo vivir a través de cada lento siglo de sus movimientos
Dejo deslizar mi mejilla
La baldosa fresca y lisa
Siento la buena y fría sangre escociendo
El suave silbido de las serpientes de lluvia
Una vez tuve un jueguecito
Me gustaba colarme sigilosamente dentro de mi cerebro
Creo que conoces ese juego al que me refiero
Hablo del juego llamado «volverse loco»
Ahora tú deberías probar este jueguecito
Sólo cierra tus ojos, olvida tu nombre
Olvida el mundo, olvida la gente
Y erigiremos una torre diferente
Este jueguecito es divertido de hacer
Sólo cierra tus ojos, nunca se pierde
Estoy aquí, yo también voy
Afloja el control, estamos atravesando
Retrocedo hasta lo más profundo del cerebro
Retrocedo más allá del dolor
Vuelvo donde no nunca hay lluvia
Y la lluvia cae suavemente sobre la ciudad
Y sobre las cabezas de todos nosotros
Y en el laberinto de arroyos bajo
La queda presencia sobrenatural
De nerviosos moradores de las colinas
En las suaves colinas de alrededor
Reptiles en abundancia
Fósiles, cavernas, cumbres de aire fresco
Cada casa repite un molde
Persianas echadas
Un coche bestial encerrado en contra de la mañana
Ahora todo duerme
Alfombras silenciosas, espejos vacíos
Polvo ciego bajo las camas de parejas legales
Envueltas en sábanas
Y sus hijas
Orgullosas con ojos de
Semen en sus pezones
¡Espera!
Aquí ha habido una masacre
No te detengas a hablar ni a mirar alrededor
Tus guantes y tu abanico están en el suelo
Nos marchamos de la ciudad
Huimos
Y tú eres la única que quiero que venga
No tocar la tierra
No ver el sol
Nada se puede hacer sino
Huir, huir, huir
Huyamos, huyamos
Una casa en la colina
La luna descansa tranquila
Las sombras de los árboles
Son testigos de la salvaje brisa
Vamos nena huye conmigo
Huyamos
Huye conmigo
Huye conmigo
Huye conmigo
Huyamos
La mansión es cálida, en lo alto de la colina
Ricas son las habitaciones y las comodidades allí
Rojos son los brazos de lujosos sillones
Y no sabrás nada hasta que no estés dentro
El cadáver del presidente muerto en el coche del chófer
El motor va con cola y alquitrán
Venga, no vamos muy lejos
Al Este para conocer al Zar
Huye conmigo
Huye conmigo
Huye conmigo
Huyamos
Algunos forajidos vivían junto a un lago
La hija del pastor está enamorada de la serpiente
Que vive en un pozo junto a la carretera
¡Despierta, niña! Estamos llegando a casa
Sol, sol, sol
Quema, quema, quema
Luna, luna, luna
Te atraparé
¡Pronto!
¡Pronto!
¡Pronto!
Soy el Rey Lagarto
puedo hacer lo que sea
Bajamos por
Ríos y autopistas
Bajamos por
Bosques y cascadas
Bajamos desde
Carson y Springfield
Bajamos desde
La Phoenix cautivadora
Y puedo decirte
Los nombres del Reino
Puedo decirte
Las cosas que sabes
Escuchando un puñado de silencio
Escalando valles en la sombra
Durante siete años viví
En el disoluto palacio del exilio
Jugando a extraños juegos
Con las chicas de la isla
Ahora he regresado
A la tierra del justo, el fuerte y el sabio
Hermanos y hermanas del pálido bosque
Oh, hijos de la noche
¿Quién de entre vosotros se unirá a la caza?
Ahora la Noche llega con su legión púrpura
Retiraos a vuestras tiendas y a vuestros sueños
Mañana entraremos en la ciudad donde nací.
Quiero estar preparado.
Me la podrías compartir por mensaje por fa

This song is DEEP, very symbolic. Look into and understand the words. For instance the 7 mile long snake is a metaphor of the 7 chakra and the energy if the akundalini serpent. Then he says it's headed south toward the reproductive organs, and the root chakra. The song is about the rise and fall of man. Aswell as the tree of life, and also about the Lizard ground dwellers of the elite. Please like this comment so people see this! Hail Rock and Roll!
Spirit Wizard Jim was into Nietzsche (and had the intelligence to understand him) and no doubt many other philosophers, mystics etc. Oh wait no, he was just a guy on acid who got lucky..

Lyrics:
Lions in the street and roaming
Dogs in heat, rabid, foaming
A beast caged in the heart of a city
The body of his mother
Rotting in the summer ground
He fled the town
He went down South and crossed the border
Left chaos and disorder
Back there over his shoulder
One morning he awoke in a green hotel
With a strange creature groaning beside him
Sweat oozed from its shining skin
Is everybody in?
The ceremony is about to begin
Wake up!
You can't remember where it was
Had this dream stopped?
The snake was pale gold, glazed and shrunken
We were afraid to touch it
The sheets were hot dead prisms
And she was beside me
Old, she's no, young
Her dark red hair, the white soft skin
Now, run to the mirror in the bathroom
Look! she's coming in here
I can't live through each slow century of her moving
I let my cheek slide down, the cool smooth tile
Feel the good cold stinging blood
The smooth hissing snakes of rain
Once I had a little game
I liked to crawl back in my brain
I think you know, the game I mean
I mean the game, called, 'Go insane'
You should try this little game
Just close your eyes forget your name
Forget the world, forget the people
And we'll erect, a different steeple
This little game is fun to do
Just close your eyes, no way to lose
And I'm right there, I'm going too
Release control, we're breaking through
Way back deep into the brain
Back where there's never any pain
And the rain falls gently on the town
And over the heads of all of us
And in the labyrinth of streams
Beneath, the quiet unearthly presence of
Gentle hill dwellers, in the gentle hills around
Reptiles abounding
Fossils, caves, cool air heights
Each house repeats a mold, windows rolled
Beast car locked in against morning
All now sleeping
Rugs silent, mirrors vacant
Dust Lying under the beds of lawful couples
Wound in sheets
And daughters, smug
With semen eyes in their nipples
Wait
There's been a slaughter here
Don't stop to speak or look around
Your gloves and fan are on the ground
We're getting out of town, we're going on the run
And you're the one I want to come
Not to touch the earth
Not to see the sun
Nothing left to do, but
Run, run, run
Let's run, let's run
House upon the hill, moon is lying still
Shadows of the trees
Witnessing the wild breeze
C'mon baby run with me
Let's run
Run with me
Run with me
Run with me
Let's run
The mansion is warm at the top of the hill
Rich are the rooms and the comforts there
Red are the arms of luxuriant chairs
And you won't know a thing till you get inside
Dead President's corpse in the driver's car
The engine runs on glue and tar
C'mon along, we're not going very far
To the East to meet the Czar
Run with me
Run with me
Run with me
Let's run
Some outlaws lived by the side of the lake
The minister's daughter's in love with the snake
Who lives in a well by the side of the road
Wake up, girl! We're almost home
We should see the gates by mornin'
We should be inside by evening
Sun, sun, sun
Burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn
I will get you
Soon, soon, soon
I am the lizard king
I can do anything
We came down
The rivers and highways
We came down from
Forests and falls
We came down from
Carson and Springfield
We came down from
Phoenix enthralled
And I can tell you
The names of the Kingdom
I can tell you
The things that you know
Listening for a fistful of silence
Climbing valleys into the shade
For seven years, I dwelt
In the loose palace of exile
Playing strange games with the girls of the island
Now, I have come again
To the land of the fair and the strong and the wise
Brothers and sisters of the pale forest
Children of night
Who among you will run with the hunt?
Now night arrives with her purple legion
Retire now to your tents and to your dreams
Tomorrow we enter the town of my birth
I want to be ready
great to have the lyrics! slightly different in this performance (as usual)
you missed a line early on......big doors fan
a fair bit of these lyrics are wrong
The lyrics are the most important part of this poetic gem :)
Spanish carVan
Played this out in the desert with a group of campers at night around a fire they were definitely shocked.
LOVE IT!
masterpiece......takes me way back
Only done how? many times? Very unique. Hill dwellers is nothing anyone can touch
This is the first album I ever halcinated to. Thirty years later listening to it again sparks my desire to eat the remaining mushrooms i have in my dresser. Life comes full circle yet again.
Jim would be proud!
Lol
Very proud. The lizards lips would smile 😃
I strongly recommend you dont eat 30 year old mushrooms dude. Thats not gonna end well...
There will never be another JIM
There will never be music like this any more. that's also a fact
There will never be another Jim Morrison .
That's what's so beautiful about it
never
This is just so intense there are no words to describe Jim
All of them, not just Jim...
@@BeatlesCentricUniverse they can all be described but Jim. He is the Alpha and the Omega
@@Roy-xe9is Hmmm, what?
@@BeatlesCentricUniverse what what?
@@BeatlesCentricUniverse GIVE YOUR LIFE TO SATAN
Todo un enigma, su música me hace recordar mis días de estudiante, como Jim no hay ni habrá otro .
I was about 11 listening to this whole session ... hypnotized! Jim Morrison could easily be able to create a cult.
Yes he could,, and think he did...
Rush Limbaugh
A true Epic! Bravo! 👏 👏 👏
The ad breaks in the middle of something like this is a sure way to turn people off from those products
My favorite version of this.. thank you for uploading!
Yeah, I couldn't find this version for years. It is by far the best version!
Sy Goldman was part of a two disc set I had in college but probably let someone borrow and have never seen nor been able to find it since.
@@Jamesus46and2 Yeah, I had The Doors Absolutely Live album in the 70s when it came out! Never found it on CD last time I looked for it. Haven't sought it out for years. Glad I found it tonight. This is the version from Absolutely Live as far as I can tell.
@@Jamesus46and2 Totally cool that your post was from 6 years ago and you answered just now!
Sy Goldman good music is eternal!

Just got an ad 4 minutes into this. RUclips, are you gonna behave or do I have to come talk to you?
RUclips without commercials is 11.99 or 12.99 per month.
This was a really special part of the album for me. Morrison's voice sounded as good speaking as it did when he was singing.
His poet side
Des isch überwältigend,fällt ei'm nix mehr ei',echt!
This is BY FAR the best recording/rendition. The other one's are vastly inferior, not nearly as dialed in. As a live performance this is genius.
Nada bate o the end 1968
legend....of .....the.....lizard
This is my 'go-to' Karaoke song, no matter what kinda crowd or bar...
Blows their f*ck*ng minds man, I open with the whole 'You Cannot Petition the Lord with Prayer' as an intro, & that kinda stuns them...then I go straight into the Celebration, Shock & Awe ya know man...
Ya dig? Disorient them a little bit first, then you give em the show,.. I'm talking a 'Slow pull of the red & gold velvet curtain' man...Knocks em right on their fannies, stone cold solid brothah...You'd dig it the most...
Then I close with a 48 minute avant-garde, interpretive dance of 'The Great Gatsby' set to Cab Callaway's 'Minnie the Moocher' which repeats 12 times lasting the entire duration of the dance...
If you can pull all this off, everyone in the audience will buy your food & drinks, & want to be your best friend that night....But should be a little dodgy & do it all at the wrong pace, either too fast or too slow, then the crowd will turn on you, & you shall find yourself unwelcome in that establishment & town
I gotta see it.
Lol i miss trolling like this so much
Für mich sogar des absolute Glanzstück von "The Doors". Seit ich des mit 14 Jahren nach meine erschte' "gute' Pfeife'" gehört hab, war es um mich für alle Zeit geschehen(natürlich mit "The Doors...ja,au' mit "gute' Pfeife',wa). Und dann gerade der Part zum Schluss, mit "I can tell you the names of the kingdoms",etc,etc,palim,palim, vom feinsten(wie im Mittelalter so'n Barde, oder wie auf'm Jahrmarkt in der Nacht,oder so),gerad deshalb isch der "Jim" für mich auch einer der erschte' " Goths".
Retire now, to your tents and to your dreams.....what a great fuckin line
Yes.
tomorrow we enter the town of my birth....i want to be ready......
Leyend of the rock. In memorian to Ray Manzarek.
I wish someone recorded this on video so we can see it happening. Sooo many concerts we only have audio but no footage. I've seen every single bit of footage there is on The Doors.. Imagine there was footage of Miami '69.
Will Swagger daaamn...just damn.
I do too, but I kinda like it this way too though. I grew up in the time right before the internet went mainstream in the late 90's I kinda like it how it was listening to music by itself with no music video or footage to go with it because it makes your use your own interpretation and imagination.
Yep...u r right.
there is one on the film I saw him dancing amazing
Yes, had there been footage of Miami in March 1969, Morrison couldn't have been railroaded by a Florida judicial system out to convict him of anything by hook or crook. When relatives of the prosecutor come to testify as witnesses of his "lewd and lascivious behavior" at the concert they didn't even attend, Morrison knew the system was totally rigged.
when i was teen, English lessons were almost boring;
but i got motivation with some songs;
this one is one of them;
the others one's :
Sympathy for the devil, Stones
Epitaph, King Crimson
The sound of silence, Simon & Garfunkel
All along the watchtower, Hendrix version
Girl, Beatles
We're gonna take it, the Who
Fabulous that this mini epic was recorded, it would otherwise be unbelieavable
This song was recorded On July 24th, 1969 @Aquarius Theater. L.A.
The finest venue...small crowd.jammed.people into it.They filled the roo, with talent and "true sound"Back where there's never any rain.
Dan ganas de hacer tanto con esta version... De lo mas sublime a lo mas infame...
Extraordinario palacio del exilio😊
Jesus, friggin Manzarek was an absolute beast
Great experience, cool music man.
genius
Morrison’s masterpiece!!
All 4 Doors.
Jim was the real thing!
Celebration of Jim,s insanity and brilliant poetry intertwined with excellent musicians jams !
We came down the rivers and highways , we came down from forests and falls....

What made Jim come up with this very powerful.
The anthem of the doors
Now, I have come again
To the land of the fair and the strong and the wise
Brothers and sisters of the pale forest

i can do anything
but blink
if you listen closely you could tell he blinks at 0:59
Been in "here" for a lifetime. Thank Gawd. ♥
In my opinion, if this incarnation would have been part of Waiting For The Sun (as the piece was originally planned to be)....The album would have ranked up there as one of their very best. The studio version that exists is not very good. Perhaps they needed more time to refine it as they did with many of their songs while honing their craft as the house band at the Whiskey and London Fog. As it was, they decided to play it safe and omit it from the album. It's still a great album but it lacks a proper psychedelic epic which featured on each of the first two albums (The End....and When The Music's Over respectively). In my world this version is a part of Waiting For The Sun.... as Morrison intended it to be.
Agreed. "The Celebration Of The Lizard" could have warranted it's own EP. It's a better magnum opus than "The End", imo
Well that's sacrilege to me as The End ranks in my top 5 Doors songs of all time.....especially the uncensored version that was on the 40th anniversary reissue of their debut album. One of the most unique songs in Rock history.
Yeah that's it. Put 3 or 4 commercials in the middle of this masterpiece.
Exactly
@@leonelsolis4299 vinyl jerk?
I just had an ad play right in the middle of The End earlier....
We're reaching levels of Jewishness not even previously thought possible.
Long Live The King
Este disco salió en México y es el mejor que se produjo Delos Doors, está pieza es de lo más chingón claro que sí ...
i state hereby : Celebration of the Lizard is Jims Sixtijn chapel no other musician alive or yet to be born is going to top his work of.
They should in fact have recorded and issued this entire piece as an EP, instead of only using Not To Touch The Earth as a stand alone on track the album. This is a concept piece way ahead of it's time, and would clearly have deserved that treatment.
It's a way better magnus opus than The End.
The BEST version EVER!!!Enjoy !!!☯️🕉🙀🐾🙏

And we'll erect, a different steeple
This little game is fun to do
Just close your eyes, no way to lose
And I'm right there, I'm going too
Release control, we're breaking through
Way back deep into the brain
Back where there's never any pain
And the rain falls gently on the town
And over the heads of all of us
And in the labyrinth of streams
Beneath, the quiet unearthly presence of
Gentle hill dwellers, in the gentle hills around
Reptiles abounding
Fossils, caves, cool air heights
Each house repeats a mold, windows rolled
Beast car locked in against morning
All now sleeping
Rugs silent, mirrors vacant
Dust Lying under the beds of lawful couples
Wound in sheets
And daughters, smug
With semen eyes in their nipples
Wait
There's been a slaughter here
Don't stop to speak or look around
Your gloves and fan are on the ground
We're getting out of town, we're going on the run
And you're the one I want to come
Not to touch the earth
Not to see the sun
Nothing left to do, but
Run, run, run
Let's run, let's run
House upon the hill, moon is lying still
Shadows of the trees
Witnessing the wild breeze
C'mon baby run with me
Let's run
Run with me
Run with me
Run with me
Let's run
The mansion is warm at the top of the hill
Rich are the rooms and the comforts there
Red are the arms of luxuriant chairs
And you won't know a thing till you get inside
Dead President's corpse in the driver's car
The engine runs on glue and tar
C'mon along, we're not going very far
To the East to meet the Czar
Run with me
Run with me
Run with me
Let's run
Some outlaws lived by the side of the lake
The minister's daughter's in love with the snake
Who lives in a well by the side of the road
Wake up, girl!
We're almost home
We should see the gates by mornin'
We should be inside by evening
Sun, sun, sun
Burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn
I will get you
Soon, soon, soon
I am the lizard king
I can do anything
We came down
The rivers and highways
We came down from
Forests and falls
We came down from
Carson and Springfield
We came down from
Phoenix enthralled
And I can tell you
The names of the Kingdom
I can tell you
The things that you know
Listening for a fistful of silence
Climbing valleys into the shade
For seven years, I dwelt In the loose palace of exile
Playing strange games with the girls of the island
Now, I have come again
To the land of the fair and the strong and the wise
Brothers and sisters of the pale forest
Children of night
Who among you will run with the hunt?
Now night arrives with her purple legion
Retire now to your tents and to your dreams
Tomorrow we enter the town of my birth
I want to be ready
OPEN THE DOOR

O melhor de todos.....Jim Morrison
Dark and Beautiful mixed with an awesome vocal and amazing music ....
These guys were way ahead of their time. Jim Morrison was a genius poet and writer. Nobody did it like The Lizard King! God I wish I grew up in this era..
i just read from Krieger's book that the "lizard king" wasn't meant to be a nickname/title for Jim - but it was a character in the poem.
@@_u_t_o_n_ You are very correct
oddly i dont think Jim Morrison wanted to live in that era and would have done better had he lived longer. Even 10 years later when he could be socially more free would have been a better time for him.
Ahead of what time?? Music does not exist anymore pal It ended in the 80s
I am 77 yrs old and sold radio time in LA OK //[[???
A beast caged in the heart of a city
The body of his mother
Rotting in the summer ground
He fled the town
He went down South and crossed the border
Left the chaos and disorder
Back there over his shoulder
One morning he awoke in a green hotel
With a strange creature groaning beside him
Sweat oozed from its shiny skin
Is everybody in?
Only Jim...could pull this off!!!!
Best version!!
I stand by my words but sadly Jim would not agree with me, I heard an interview with Jim recently & he states that this is not his favorite performance of this amazing poem.
Jim. M..N. 1.
Los. Puertas.. Grandes.. ❤️❤️👏🇪🇸🇪🇸❤️
An ad in the middle of this masterpiece? WTF, RUclips?!!!!
I just had an ad play right in the middle of The End earlier....
We're reaching levels of Jewishness not even previously thought possible.
GREAT POETRY,AMAZING PERFORMANCE!
Truly genius! 🌵🍃
This is the real version! Thank you!
Yeah, I couldn't find this version for years. The best version by far!
I love the bicycle rings so much, and Jakob Kranz used it for the intro and outro for his metal radio show 😂🎶🙏🤘👍🆙🔝🤩🍻💯🏵️👌💃🎶😍👏🔥🚬☮️Jimmy you're the best
I remember being a 15 year old who got into the doors in 1980 this was the biggest mind fuck piece of music I had ever heard. still is
I presume it's been said before but;
'Now, run to the mirror in the bathroom
Look!
I can’t live thru each slow century of her moving
I let my cheek slide down
The cool smooth tile
Feel the good cold stinging blood
The smooth hissing snakes of rain'
Sounds like his death scene in Paris . . . ?
every part on point
Right after the Miami incident I was album shopping in Woolworth store, and picked up this gem for 2.00, it changed my life. double live album.untill that. everything was studio.
joe higgins Miami was in 1969 this didn’t come out until 1970
This is the definitive version....
+Glen Carta The studio outake got me too.
+Noodles37UK The studio take's awesome. It's not quite there, in terms of being ready for an album, but it's close!
I read about it being recorded, in a book called No One Here Gets Out Alive in '89. I finally heard it about 3 years ago. It's rough round the edges but great.
Noodles37UK That book was ten years old then. That was Danny Sugarman's Doors book.
Now, I know that Morison was a reptilian.
Actually he's reporting it, right?
why do people upload other versions? THIS.
I am the lizard king, I can do anything..........
i can stop the world on its tracks. i made the blue cars go away.
I whish...tr
*WAKE UP* ... kinda says it all
+TOTM Greenish They did back then.This lot these days...
***** wake the phuk up
Love the CircuitJoy ads right in the middle of Celebration of the Lizard. You win, capitalism, you win.
I just had an ad play right in the middle of The End earlier....
We're reaching levels of Jewishness not even previously thought possible.
Rest in Peace James Douglas Morrison and may GOD have mercy on us ...
