Great reactions to The Doors! Loved seeing your take on this great album. Now that you have listened to The End you should next watch the academy award winning film Apocalypse Now to see how Francis Ford Coppola used the song in his movie about Captain Willard hunting down Colonel Kurtz with the Vietnam War as the backdrop.
Really enjoyed your reactions to this album. In the summer of 1980, my brother brought home the compilation album "Weird Scenes Inside the Goldmine" and my Doors adventure started when I heard "The End"; melted my poor little 12-year old mind but in the best way possible.
"Every Night & every Morn Some to Misery are Born Every Morn and every Night Some are Born to sweet delight Some are Born to sweet delight Some are Born to Endless Night" - William Blake (again) From "Auguries of Innocence" 1863.
@@CriTiCriTiques Yup bang on, the other Doors song that got me when I first heard the band was L'America, arguably the most stunning vocal entry in the history of rock.
Oedipus Jim. LoL. So this all caused quite the stir back in the day. Authorities were aware of the content and they were up front about consequences of violating the day's "decency" standards. To which Jim often responded by pulling his junk out in front of the whole crowd and not holding back lyrics. Absolute rebel legend. There would be lines of police in front of and behind the stage to control the crowd and Jim lol. The blue bus at the time refers to the military busses taking draftees away to war or prisoners to prison iirc.
Actually he didn't show anything he just simulated, that's what the other band members said. And doesn't the blue bus refers to that accident he saw as a kid with the bus full of indians? I interpreted that way, but i might be wrong.

They went to UCLA, the blue bus was infamous for taking students off campus, no one knew where they were going or when they'd get to where they wanted to go.
They added to The End throughout their whole run. Live in New York has a 20 minute version. I'd love to see you guys react to their other albums, or a concert. Jim was one hell of a showman. I know the Hollywood Bowl is on youtube in its full form. Great show.
I like your in depth analysis of this song! You might want to read John Densmore's autobiography "Riders on the Storm" he explains his origins and that of the band and lots of insight into Jim's psyche and his complex relation with someone who was for a while his roommate and bandmate.
Jim never said he wanted to kill his parents. This is a reference to Greek mythology. They changed this song every time they played it. Jim would throw stuff in and take it out. They were fired from the Whisky when they did the kill the father part. They never played it that way before. ruclips.net/video/eE2cVA5yi4U/видео.html&si=EnSIkaIECMiOmarE
I suggest that you review these albums the sequence of their release then you can really feel how the group evolved in every facet. Then you will understand why The Doors were the best four man band in concept, arrangements, composition ..., They were the best American band by far. Take it easy, take the albums as they come, you'll be moving much too fast. The Doors released a single in '69 and within a few days it was banned from air play from every radio station in the USA because of the anti- war video released with the song, Unknown Soldier. A band of great relevance of the time.
They didn't have an album when he sang those words that got them fired, they were signed to record deals after. The song originally started as 3 minutes, they kept adding to it over time 😁odeipus....the short part of the beginning of the song and the end part of the song were original to a old girlfriend. And the Vietnam War and opedius part were added in
....ok gang.. loved this album breakdowns. Now you need to watch the movie Apocalypse Now! and dig how they merged Doors music with the Vietnam War story.😉
They were all tripping when they recorded this song, but did it in 2 takes. Jim improvised "The killer awoke before dawn..." but the band stayed right with him.
You have to take the time frame in context as well. This is coming off the flower child movement where it was all peace & love. Then this dude gets on stage screaming fuck & saying he wants to kill his dad.
The live performance occured before it was recorded and was completely improvised, and therefore shocked and outraged the manager of the Whiskey A Go Go. I'd love to know what the original lyrics and theme were .
The F words were muted on the original album. This remixed version brings it out and i don't think it's for the better, personally. The song evolved a lot when they were predominantly this live before they cut the album so it got weirder and weirder until it got here
I totally disagree with your breakdown of Jim’s lyrics. Almost all of Jim’s songs are referencing how he is a man born to the night. That is when he is alive. He’s not a regular person who lives during the day and goes to sleep at night. I’m sure you’ve noticed his lyrics talk about Sun and daytime or moon and nighttime. He’s very dark even when he’s at his best.
Think thats long? Look up Ina-Gadda-Da-Vida or Suppers Ready. Suppers Ready will turn into your new mind blower, WILL.Especially if you watch the live version from 1972
They bought that Rimbaud Artaud theatre of cruelty to the city of light. Only 6 Studio albums and they were done. Jagger and Plant were inferior front men. But the art with a, capital A fell away from rock for dull Stadium rocktium. It's de jai vue for old men 2022-2024 is the actual End. A thing called death. RIP.

Glad you came round to End Of The Night, their best track in my opinion.
Dude I can't stop playing that song. I especially love the beginning when all the instruments start coming in one by one but the song is just so good

The intro to this song is sort of the best into to the doors if somebody asks what are they like. Strange, beautiful, alone.

dude i love you guys reaction vids and album reviews, and i would deff go to you guyz diner fo sho. I deff would invest in that idea no joke.
Watch “The End” live at the Hollywood Bowl 68’ and live in Toronto. It’s a trip.
Some of the lyrics are from the 1780s-ish, from a poem by William Blake - “summer born to ….” and the “realms…” stanzas at least.
Morrison was very well versed in classical history and philosophy, but his poetry influence was Rimbaud.

And Take It As It Comes is the absolute gem of the album imo.
Jim loved LA, the west. He was born in Florida and the school busses were blue.

what an underrated song
End of the Night is a reference to a William Blake poem .
Growing up 70's during Vietnam Jimbo Morrison music was made for peyote n mescaline n trippers and absolutely know nothing about it .......
Knew youd love this 1. Checked ya playlists Missing is Green Day Album American Idiot is my TOP 5 albums
You have to take the time frame in context as well. This is coming off the flower child movement where it was all peace & love. Then this dude gets on stage screaming fuck & saying he wants to kill his dad.
great reaction. Could you react to the morrison hotel album?
The best one in my opinion
This song is a journey.
Oedipus rex - Greek myth. Look it up.
10:58 Morrison had already found his love, but she was taking Heroin.
respect guys
The live performance occured before it was recorded and was completely improvised, and therefore shocked and outraged the manager of the Whiskey A Go Go. I'd love to know what the original lyrics and theme were .
Specialise in having fun!
I'm totally gonna eat at that diner every day till the end !!!
The end is a masterpiece. Not for everyone.
listen to that in the dark 8D

Sex, drugs, and death is what the doors are all about. They're like beat poetry acid lounge jazz. Legendary. Love the breakdowns!
That was a great combo of words to describe them 😂😂😂
Nope, Doors were mostly sober. Readers, book worms. The Stone film is shit.
Think thats long? Look up Ina-Gadda-Da-Vida or Suppers Ready. Suppers Ready will turn into your new mind blower, WILL.Especially if you watch the live version from 1972
The rest of the band heard it on stage for the first time.
All right yeah ❤✌️
how many say it now ?
Bet that's the quickest, 11 minutes 43sec. you've ever spent. Lol (yes this was the 60's), that's why their at the 'GOAT' level.
I never quite understood why Morrison found Pamela Courson attractive, yet he did. There was a something between them.
I'm certain that Morrison knew of Pericles.
Im sure he knew a lot about ancient Greece
Can't take the lyrics too literally. Jim was very well-read, so "The End" is pretty obviously a nod to the ancient Greek myth of Oedipus.
The first goth band
NASA didn't take us to outer space, the doors did.
Jim tried to expand our mind and take us even further
