This Song is about the singer witnessing a plane crash that killed his best friend and his girlfriend. It haunted him for years and his band mates convinced to write about it. The studio made them tone it down for radio. The original song was a lot more graphic that these lyrics. I found this song on a greatest hits record that I got at a yard sale. I was freaked out by it when I first heard it. I played it for my buddy who was into horror stories and movies. He told me years later that the song gave him nightmares after he heard it.
Ive asked numerous reactioners to listen to this and you are the only one i can find that did ❤❤❤❤❤
I remember this album Bloodrock 2 I found it in my collection of albums I bought it in 1971
He was not in the hospital, he was riding to the hospital in an ambulance.
This song has always given me the creeps.
It's so macabre! I remember my brother playing this 45 when I was really little. A very long long long time ago. Unfortunately. For me. 🤨
Radio stations played this after midnight, so yeah we stayed up to listen.
This is a song that was banned on many radio stations. It was written by a member of the band who saw a plane crash. Creepy song and yes I have vinyl album
One reason some radio stations banned it was because people heard the siren in the song while driving, so they were pulling off to the side of the road .
Have it on vinyl and CD.
This song WAS played on my local radio stations in Texas, but I think mainly because it was a Texas band!
Luckily, it did not stay on even the local playlists for very long!!!
Interestingly, this song came out at almost the same time as Black Sabbath's first album, and I didn't like either band back then. Over the years, I came to appreciate Sabbath and Ozzy, but not Bloodrock!
Classic!
I've been hearing about this song for more than 50 years, but this is the first time I've actually heard it. "Dark and creepy" they said. "Unsettling and disturbing". "Alice Cooper wishes he was this horrible". "Mandatory listening for Halloween". "Don't play this near your kids". "Scared the snit out of me". "Rob Zombie's golden oldie". Somehow, they forgot to mention "Really f'ing cool ! " Thank you.
This song is without a doubt one of the eeriest songs I have ever heard.
One of my favorite songs in high school. Thank you for bringing it back!
Jeez, it's been many years since I've heard this one. I'd totally forgotten about it.
Thank you so much!!!
I thought I would never be subjected to this again.
LOL!!! IKR?
Thanks for this. I always felt the person was riding in an ambulance. Another vote for you to do " Timothy ".
Yeah, the guy was in an ambulance on his way to the hospital. The siren was from the ambulance. At the end of the song, after the music ends, the siren stops because the guy has died and there is no longer any rush to get to the hospital. He will be Dead On Arrival.
Exactly, sir.
I was going to recommend this for Halloween... glad someone else did..
I remember REALLY liking this song when it came out when I was 16 yrs. old. I haven't heard it since then. But now it just sounds really creepy and morbid.
As the song progresses you realize the guy is in the morgue, not a hospital.
The song was written in kind of a means of healing. When the guitarist for the band was a teenager, he watched a friend of his die in a plane crash couple hundred feet from the ground at the airport, a plane he himself had just been in that his friend flew. It messed him up for a long time, so he wrote the song to try to get it out. The perspective of one of the victims as he slowly dies.
Back in the 70's when this song originally was released a local radio station played it at midnight every Wednesday. My sister and I would stay up just to listen to this song in the dark. Good memories.
Good choice.
Dead Babies, I Love the Dead, or Sick Things - All by Alice Cooper are great for Halloween
This was better than the typical reaction video because you read comments and looked up the meaning. Most music reaction videos are lazy. Well done.
Huge Bloodrock fan here. Had their stuff when I was thirteen and have all they did on CD as an adult.
Thanks for doing my request. 96 Rock in Atlanta, GA used to play this on Halloween every year in the 70's. I had the album on vinyl and it is phenomenal.
When my high school cafeteria got a jukebox in the early 70s, this song was on it ALL THE TIME. (For a few weeks anyway.)
JENKS, OKLAHOMA
I love this song! I even have the 45 of it. It doesn't even scare me one bit. Thanks for posting this.
Thanks for the shout out (of sorts)! The Vietnam comment was mine. The song itself may have been fictional but the mood of the song was definitely influenced by the darkness of the times.
Have never heard this before but it is so atmospheric for all the bloodiness of it it certainly places you there. Is in hospital staring at the ceiling.Plane crash.
This song was played all the time when it was released. At least on our AM station kriz in Arizona.
And the year it was released a good friend of mine and his brothers (5) all lost their lives in a car crash late one Friday night. So I can't hear the song without that coming to mind.
Perhaps worse because I was on scene of the accident. Although not the first time I had dealt horrific accidents and death, it was the first time with anyone I had known.
Of course this was about an airplane accident. And I had already been flying gliders before this. And a year after this song was released I had my pilot's license and was doing search and rescue.
The lyrics about the attendance face being pale as it could be is pretty accurate. The images seen never leave your mind. At the time you do what's needed. Then afterwards you grow silent, reflect and cry.
🤠🐂🏞️🛩️
I shouldn't have listened. My most haunting memory was a woman in the passenger seat whose legs had been amputated in the accident. Despite my screaming on the radio for a evacuation helicopter it never came in time. Neither did the equipment needed to extract her from the vehicle. Three of us were trying to hold her from convulsing when she grabbed me and stared at me scared and crying. At that point all I could do was pray with her while she faded away.
I remember hearing this on the radio and had the record
FIRE by the Crazy World of Arthur Brown.. find one of the videos showing him.
Wow!! I have not heard this in years!! It scared me to death as a kid when it came out! Loved it!! LOL!! I always wondered what the heck they hit in the air?? I always took it as a plane crash!!
As you would say "well that was interesting".
This was outright banned from being brought into or played in our junior high (vinyl in those days). The only music I ever remember being banned. We were like moths to a candle to get a listen to this.
Yes banning something is always a good way to build up a desire to know.
The FCC tried to ban this song, but when radio stations dared to play it anyway, starting with a radio station in Ft. Worth Texas, the bands hometown, they found it quickly became one of the most requested songs and it became iconic.
I always thought it was an overdose song about flying along high on something but at that time we were really being schooled on drug abuse at elementary school plus everything seemed graphic and spooky back then but love the song now
I remember this back in high school. Eerie tunes to trip
I'm a very big bloodrock fan since DOA came out on KAAY the Mighty 1090am on Little Rock's BEAKER STREET that played lp cuts in 1970 and on. I once talked to the keyboardist Steve Hill for a whole hour about ten years ago. We talked about the bands eclectic style. The shorten song was a hit on top 40 radio. Steve was a big proggier/fusion guy. Their last 3 lps were more progressive. Though each lp has great stuff. Sadly Stevie died of cancer later.
Here's a great freaky video from an earlier lp of theirs.

Wasn’t this record the perfect Christmas gift for a suicidally depressed thirteen year old girl? This went perfectly with my new portable record player I thought it meant that my new stepmother hated me. This was the only record I got! I always assumed this was a drunk driving song. This was the first time I have willingly heard it in nearly fifty years, and it surprised me at how well done the music was. Oh well. Time passes, and at least I got to hear ‘I Can See Clearly Now’’ first! God Bless You, sweet Daniel, now and always.
There is a video that shows, you hear the ambulance, girls dead, he lost his arm, he was drinking and hauling ass, never figured out what they hit in the air. This song came out in my teens, I am 67 now. It's all a dream
D.O.A. is a great novelty song, we wore it out when I was in high school (1973 graduate). Bloodrock were a great Rock band, and the rest of the songs on the album are First Class Killer Rock tunes. I no longer listen to D.O.A. but I still crank up the rest of the album regularly. Rock on :D
"Sable and Pearl" from this album is their best song by far....
1973 here also! Have first and second albums!
@@lantose - Same! And I still love both as much as I did as a kid. Rock on!
How can you call this a novelty song? It's based on the true story of one of the band members witnessing his friends plane spiral out of control just after takeoff crashing to the ground in a ball of flames. The pilot (his friend) and the lady aboard both died.
I was around 10 years old when this came out and we were doing a lot of anti drug stuff at school and this song really freaked me out
The rest of the album is fantastic! I highly recommend you react to those songs too.
Bloodrock 3 album is gold!!!! This tune rocks!!!!! Thanks dude,it brings back some real funky memories.
A perfect song for Halloween. And a great rock band from the early 70's. DOA is from their album Bloodrock 2, which is their best record and every song on it is fantastic. This awesome band is from Fort Worth, Texas - my home town!
I never heard of this band. When the music started I could tell very quickly it was from the early '70s. Really creepy with terrific vocals and orchestration. Excellent drummer.
This song actually cracked the Billboard Top 40. Since American Top 40 started in 1970, there has to be a clip somewhere of Casey Kasem announcing this song.
Ok then, this song is creepy as heck ! Sirens, in general, bother me as I am in healthcare, so that was dark. But it was cool. And to those who are complaining about your choices of songs for Halloweenie, I say quitcher b*tchen ! It's supposed to be fun, remember? Lol ! ✌❤🌻😷🎶
There was only one radio station back in the day that would play this song in my city. I Always loved this song✌
When the song was played on the radio ... it was played after midnight or close to midnight... the only time you could hear it
Never heard this before. Creepy song.
@Latimer Johnson HUH? How is it not?
Had this one on a 45 vinyl, ancient record player. A great tune.
Band member lost a close friend in a plane crash when he was 17 years old. He was at the airport when it happened and witnessed it. It haunted him for years and his bandmates convinced him yo write about it.
Also it was was to be wayyyyyyy more darker i.e victims puking and body parts flung everywhere
The ceiling is in the ambulance.
Found it did you. Enjoy your nightmare. This song was banned from air play. Not the highest quality music but if you’re going to listen to that era this’ll fit right in. Think of flying h**h in a vehicle. They’re in the back of an ambulance, hence the music sounding like a siren.
Certainly wasn't banned around these parts (Flint, MI). WTAC The Big 6 played it a lot! Ingrained in my head since I was 10 years old! This was produced by Flint's own Terry Knight who also produced Grand Funk Railroad at that time!
Why am I seeing this at 1 in the AM... That vid intro freaked the fk out of me :D
It's a auditory thrill ride a story about a real plane accident seen by the gitarist when he was 17
Cool selection, Bloodrock isn't very known. My roommate in college had some of their albums, which have crazy covers, and we rocked out to them a lot.
great song had the lp as a kid .. very good !
saw these guys backing up Grand Funk Railroad, way back in early 70's in Ottawa Canada, great band.
I think this first came out in 1970 and they used to play it on the A.M. radio back then when almost all cars came with just A.M. radio and I was young and this song was scary and creepy as hell and they played it around Halloween for years after that!
The kid says "that wasn't dark at all" I hope that was sarcasm. It's a cool memory for some of us.
It really happened. He saw his 2 best friend's get killed right in front of him. She was dead at the scene and he was still alive but died as the got to the hospital. So he was DOA. The singer just got off the plane. And couldn't do nothin' but watch there wasn't a damn thing he could do to save them. His friend arm was ripped off. He bled out.
well if you're doing halloween music reactions, Alan Parsons first album is based on various Edgar Allan Poe horror stories.
The phrase 'flying along" meant speeding in a car and they crashed. He is in the ambulance.
you couldn't be more wrong
This brings back flashbacks of finding one of my students bodies last year. She eloped from our group home and was struck by a semi. I'll never get it out of my head 😔😞
If I may suggest, Atomic Rooster - Death Walks Behind You.
It's about a car crash. They were "flying along," meaning that they were most likely speeding.
Did you not watch this whole video? It's about a plane crash. And it's not fictional
This song terrified me as a kid. Still does.
Wow. I have not heard this song in about 45 years. Real blast from the past.
These guys were supposed to play our Senior prom (1975) but they bailed at the last minute.
Ha...these guys played a show at my High School (Garland High School) in 1978....for $2.00 and got out a class...they sounded like the album...good players!
Saw them open for Grand Funk Railroad, two great live bands; circa 69 or 70 in San Antonio.
This is the most depressing song I've ever heard. I remember my sister bought the 45 when I was about 6 yrs old and it scared the hell out of me. _VERY_ morbid. I didn't think anyone else in the world had remembered this one besides me. I don't remember that guitar solo though. "Spooky" by Atlanta Rhythm Section is a _MUST_ for Halloween.
It was played on kaay Little Rock Arkansas all the time late at night
I remember when this came out, it didn't get played on the radio much, but then my family went to Gifford's Ice Cream shop one night, and I saw it on the juke box terminal at our table, and played it several times.
I was about 15 when this came out. Very disturbing.
Bought this album when I was 16 years old... it always made me so sad 😞
Thanks, Daniel. I hadn’t heard this song in decades. I saw these guys in the very early seventies. They opened for Grand Funk Railroad. It was a very loud show, as I recall.
alice cooper ballad of dwight fry...............you will like.
Yeah, a couple of people recommended Timothy by the Buoys. Very creepy. Cannibal song. Perfect for Halloween.
The song is about an airplane crash victim and his girlfriend dying on the way to the hospital.
A Good Knight Production , Terry Knight producer of Grand Funk Railroad and Manager of Both Bands back in the Day....
I'm just shaking my head at all the comments stating it's a fictional song and it's about a car crash.
I'm slightly cynical about this song. Just discovered it. On the one hand, it feels like a gimmick. Shocking for the sake of shock value and getting attention. On the other hand, the song is 8 minutes. That's a no-go for radio stations. Even the condensed 5(ish) minutes is a big ask. Add in the lyrics and you'd think this song would be radio poison. That kind of throws the "looking for attention" thing out the window. Hard to pay attention to a song you don't know exists.
I think this song, mainly the lyrics, are shocking just for the sake of shocking. I don't, however, think they were attempting to make a hit song here. I'm shocked this made it to the radio. I'm sure they were too.
Great band out of Ft. Worth! First album has a number of great songs with excellent lead guitar solos. “Timepiece” would be another good song for Halloween! About a guy who has run out of time on death row and the clock is running down on his final day!
"According to Bloodrock guitarist Lee Pickens, the origin of the song is about an airplane incident he encountered when he was a teenager.
'When I was 17, I wanted to be an airline pilot. I had just gotten out of this airplane with a friend of mine, at this little airport, and I watched him take off. He went about 200 feet in the air, rolled and crashed.'
The band decided to write a song about the incident and it was featured on their sophomore album.
The song peaked at #36 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1971, but many radio stations and high schools in the United States banned the song due to its content."
Enjoy Psycho! When you watch it notice the birds. The sound is birds.
I recommend Halloween by King Diamond.
Very rare tune
I was 14 when I first heard it
Wow haven't heard this in almost 50 years...as someone else suggested...Timothy by the Buoys
This song was banned by the FCC. When it first came out.
Everyone thinks this is about a plane crash. I think it was a song about teenagers driving too fast and didn't see what they ran into.
Do the research. It's definitely about a plane crash. One of the band members witnessed it.
I turned off the lights when I watched this video. Awesome!!!!!!!!!
I saw this band twice. One headline in a parking garage and a few months later opening for Grand Fuck Railroad. One hit wonders. Other songs were uptempo.
BLOOD ROCK, "DOA". NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD EVER HEAR THIS ON REACTIONS. THAT BEING SAID. I REMEMBER THIS BEING BANNED FROM THE RADIO AIR WAYS. GRAFFIC AUTO ACCIDENT SONG. SIRENS I ASSUME ARE THE AMBULANCE... Got people's attention. A lot of cruising and partying in cars drinking, and drugs I suppose in Highschool, and College.
1971. It really freaked me out when I heard it. BTW there is a whole genre of teenage death songs in the early to mid 1960s.
IF A SONG CAN CAUSE NIGHTMARES----- JUST BE PREPARED FOR IT TO HAPPEN TO YOU.
First heard this song when my oldest brother bought album when I was 12-13........... AND I STILL CANNOT LISTEN TO IT AT AGE 62
Yeah, I first heard this at age 14 and had nightmares for quite a while. I revisit it every once in a while and it is still as creepy as it was back then. We'll see how I sleep tonight.
He is in the ambulance... so frustrating
Also the shorter radio edit didn't have the musical break jam toward the end.
heard this on a late intro radio show BEAKER STREET on kaay little rock ark....spooky as hell made the top 40 on billboard charts......terry knight who was grand funks early producer also produced this
I said before I saw this band at Curtis Hall in Tampa. They were the main event. But the opening bands are worth mentioning. First was steam followed by the Bob Seger system followed by the MC5. Then bloodrock. Steam got booed off the stage. MC5 was good but got in trouble because the singer was putting his hand down in his pants, but the Bob Seger system was fantastic, they had a hit song at the time called rambling gambling Man. To this day I believe the Bob Seger system was the best incarnation of Bob seger's bands. They did the entire tales of Lucy blue album which is a great album, one you should react to. It's a much more hard rock album than anything else Bob Seger has ever done, you would be really surprised
This ain’t no Monster Mash!
