top 5 band of all time. No one else sounded like or has sounded since, like the Doors. Genius when their songs do not sound dated at all even today. Yes Mel & Shawn you must go much further down The Doors rabbit hole, you won't be disappointed
Totally agree
Beatles
Pink Floyd
The Doors
Genesis
Led Zeppelin
💯
The Doors were among the most controversial & influential rock acts of the 1960s, mostly due to Jim Morrison's lyrics & voice. They had a lot of hits including "The End", "Light My Fire", "Break On Through (To The Other Side)", "Love Me Two Times", "L.A. Woman", "People Are Strange", "Hello, I Love You", "Touch Me", "The Unknown Soldier", "Roadhouse Blues", "Love Her Madly", "Riders On The Storm". Sadly Jim Morrison died in 1971 at the age of only 27 but left a great legacy of music.
YES!!!
YESSSS!!
YES 🥰
Jim Morrison's charisma shines in that clip. The Doors were a psychedelic blues-rock band from Los Angeles that took their name from the title of the 1954 book "The Doors of Perception" by Aldous Huxley, about his experiences under the influence of mescaline which he took as part of a psychiatric experiment in 1953. Jim Morrison died in Paris at the age of 27. When you're ready for more from The Doors, check out "Riders on the Storm", "Light My Fire", "Love Her Madly", "Soul Kitchen", "Strange Days", "Five to One", and "Peace Frog" along with so many other greats.
Purple Mescaline was pretty good. 💁
Jim was deep and a poet. His father was a rear admiral in the U.S. Navy.
I saw him interviewed....his father
He was only a poet for people who know fuck all about poetry. His lyrics were just meaningless drivel.
His father was the one who started the Vietnam War he was the one who killed the first enemy combatant
@@duhusker4383 it's not meaningless, it's full of symbolism. Have you ever read Rimbaud or Baudelaire?
and he is my second cousin once removed :)
Mel, there's not too many singers in history like Jim Morrison. That's why so few have been able to match him, black or white.
Jim Morrison was the genuine article. He went where others feared to tread. They could be rock, jazz, psychedelic, blues, with even a touch of classical here and there, but whatever they were, they were always The Doors.
Poet, Icon of an era, brave, long live the liziard king. The doors one of the best rock band forever!
Oh man I've loved The Doors for decades. I first saw this live performance on an old VHS tape I bought in the early 80's and I love this performance especially when Jim stares down the lens at 2:28 and grabs your attention for the next 30 seconds. I think he only blinks once before moving his gaze away. Also the way you can see him psyching himself up for the finale at 5:28 onwards. Pure magic.
Through most of the song, Jim Morrison left off the "s" in "two times," creating a double meaning to the phrase. The lyrics were inspired by both The Doors going on the road and American soldiers going to Vietnam.
In 1968 a lot of men were going away - to Vietnam. This song resonated even more back then.
That keyboard player was also playing the bass line with his feet !!
He died at 27 years to young.great poet.
Listen to the end, there are many more hits.
This is a rabbit hole for sure, and it is deep! The Doors will never disappoint you. Please react to "Waiting for the Sun",one of my favorites.
Jim was in the 27 club with Janis Joplin, and Jimi Hendrix, as they all died at 27 within a year each other. This is one of his calm songs.
Dear Jim,
You are dearly missed since your early passing at only age 27. Thank you for your amazing words and lyrics that you left us.
RIP The Lizard King. Mojo Rising!
💯
The 60's were f---ing amazing, I was a teen and totally digging in on the Doors, Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, CCR, Steppenwolf
So much amazing music
Me too! I was 14 in summer of ‘68!!
Jim Morrison was a poet. Tons of charisma
It's such a thrill to see Jim Morrison performing again. A flood of memories came rushing to my head. All I can say is wow!
Wow, nice live version. The reason I say I would bring back Morrison in a minute. I found this song cause Aerosmith covered it for a soundtrack. This song was actually written by guitarist, not Jim like usual. You made my day. I'm sharing on FB. Awesome reaction guys.
Jim morrisson, freddy mercury and meatloaf were in their own lane! ❤❤❤
I always think of The Doors, The Turtles, The Animals, etc., as the music my older brother listened to. He had a paper route and could afford albums. The music holds up well, don't you think?
The Doors had many many hits, but for you two, I would suggest Road House Blues, a very soulful and bluesy song.
Ray Manzarek on keys, lead/rhythm & bass...one of rock's greatest.
Love your confessional, Mel ❤, BOTH of you guy's rock‼️
This is part of your special identity.
The Doors studio albums were all crazy good - deep playlist of quality songs. Robby Krieger was one of my initial influences learning guitar back in the day. Hadn't seen this live performance video before - cool! The beginning dialogue has some of the lyrics to "The Wasp (Texas Radio)" off of their last album "L.A. Woman". The movie "The Doors" is also incredible, Val Kilmer doing an amazing portrayal of Jim Morrison (everyone should watch if haven't already seen, hint hint!)
It must have been incredible to see them live on a good night...And probably pretty incredible to see them on a terrible night...
Love the Doors, Touch Me is another great song
The Doors were asked to change a line in Light my fire right before they went on stage on the Ed Sullivan show, they agreed but sang the original lyrics causing them to be permanently banned from the show, the line was girl we couldn’t get much higher.
Great reaction to an amazing live performance. The Doors has got to be the coolest band, ever. They are just so iconic.
I didn't get into The Doors until the 80s but they're one of my favs! Controversial, influential, huge band. Jim Morrison RIP belongs to the "27" club as he died at that young age. Their songs have been used in many movies, eg. Forrest Gump, Acopolypse Now, etc.
"Break on through"
"Love me madly"
"Roadhouse Blues"
"LA Woman"
Many many more
THIS SONG WAS WRITTEN ABOUT THE SOILDERS GOING TO VIETNAM AND WAS ONE OF THEIR BIGGER HITS.. GREAT PICK GUYS NEVER GET BORED OF THE DOORS...PEACE FROM THE NORTHEAST
evidence?
Who asks for "evidence" whenever someone says something?
Why are you yelling? 😉
The best American Poet that ever lived. He was a big fan of the blues and jazz...as well as the musicians. There was no bass player in the band, the keyboardist would play the bass with one hand on the keyboard and play the keys on the other hand. PLEASE do more of them. I was listening to them in the womb-35 years later.
I grew up with them in the 60s and I have never heard anything else like them. Greatest American rock band.
There is no bad Doors song. I think my favourite is Light My Fire, followed closely by Riders On The Storm, Roadhouse Blues, Break On Through.
Their keyboardist, Ray Manzarek really makes their sound, while Jim's vocals and lyrics really cut to the chase.
Totally Agree! Especially when you consider that Ray is playing the bass line as well. No bass player in the DOORS!
What a great band. I remember riding in the 18 wheeler with my dad back in the 70s with the 8track playing that's when I was exposed and so many hits.
The Doors...A musical experience that is unequaled. These guys took me through my teen years. Pick a song...you won't be disappointed.
You guys have been hittin it lately!! Jim was a tortured soul, what a talent. Another artist from my era that lost his life to drugs and alcohol. 😪
Great reaction! Incredible band with many great tunes. Love your commentary. Even though I know most of the songs you all are reacting to I'm learning more as well.
This song was about Jim's wife who also had a boyfriend. Two times was "two timed" but changed. They had an open relationship and Jim was free to hook up with anyone when Pam took off. It was strange dynamic. This clip was also recorded in Europe in an ice cold movie studio in the morning. Jim was still hung over so that explains the stool he was sitting on. Very few live Doors shows were filmed so this is a treasure.
The Doors got big in the 60's, you should check out the Movie "The Doors...by the same name" about Jim Morrison's life and band and their journey at that time! Next check out - Light my Fire - People are Strange
Rest In Peace, Jim Morrison. What an incredible talent.
"That guy he had souuul!!! ".... "Those guys were on fire"... Thank you you both made my day, and its only just started... This is one of my favourite songs from them..... you could do Riders on the Storm? :) :) :) 🤗✨😍💖✨🎧📻🎹🎶🎵🎼
My dears, The Doors mixed Soul, Jazz and Rock like nobody. The Jim's voice is out of the space. He was a poet with a particular infancy. He was one of the most misterious man that walked by the earth. Regards from Spain, Madrid. Loved ur reaction. Exist a very good bands in the music and then we have The Doors...
Love that you included Morrisson's poetry...
Enjoyed it!
One of your best reactions. By expanding our horizons music also brings us together. Some like to point out how different we all are, but at the end of the day, people are people.
And music brings us together.
As Conway Twitty often said "A Good Song Don't Care Who Sings It!"
The Doors are forever!!!
The audience was mesmerized with Jim...of course acid, mescalin, shrooms, peyote helped those without their natural trip with his mind.....Robbie wrote this song and it was about a guy leaving for Vietnam...
Great band.. coolest and handsomest frontman of all time.. quite possibly!
Try their "Riders on the Storm" you won't be disappointed.
My vote for best American rock and roll band of all time!🇨🇦
You'll love Light My Fire by the Doors as well, I promise! I especially recommend the extended version, because THAT has the Keyboard and Organ solo, and you NEEEEEED that.
“Soul Kitchen” ,”LA Woman”, “Road House Blues” “Peace Frog”
Love Her Madly and Touch Me are my go to songs!! I love them all but I really really love these! Give them a try you will love them too!
It's great that you're hearing this music and loving it. Can never learn too much and expand your horizons. It's ironic but Jim named the band after a famous book called the "The Doors of Perception" and they along with other musicians from the 60s and 70s seem to have opened your mind to new music!
You can hear the soulful Mississippi Blues in his songs. Jim Morrison's will be known as the poet of the 20th century.
I became obsessed with the doors as a teenager, even though it was decades later. Jim is of another world. He burned so brightly that the world couldn't hold him. He is buried in Paris. When you go to the cemetery in Paris, people write on other people's gravestones the name Jim with an arrow pointing the way to him. His poetry is out of this world. Blues all the way. I just sink into another place when Jim comes on.
Doing these videos definitely opens your mind! Thanks!
People the world over have "soul". There is a world of music out there. The Doors, one of my favorites.
I used to play guitar in a Doors cover band. I played bass and sang. I still can sing like Jim Morrison. I love the Doors
Fave Doors song Love me two times… 💛 Jim Morrison’s prelude of poetry is Genius & the song is bluesy & very uniquely builds up to a crescendo at the end…..Hot & Immortal - no music like this exists today…
Yay- the Doors!!! Love you two. Your reactions are the BEST! 😍😍
Gotta love Jim's darker poetry and Neitzchen/existential philosophical undertones
"We constructed pyramids in honor of our escaping. This is the land where the Pharos die"
Plenty of other esoteric insights in all their songs
Morrison, Joplin and Hendricks were some of the most popular blues/rock musicians of the 60s. Castles made of Sand by Hendricks is a great jam with great lyrics. Summertime by Joplin as well🙏👍👍👍👌👌👌👌❤
Jim Morrison's voice was so haunting and mesmerizing.
Jim Morrison was a poet, the electric poet, the lizard King
One of their first songs that Jim turned a poem he wrote into a song was Moonlight Drive. If you ever get the chance, watch the 1991 boigraphical movie The Doors starring Val Kilmer as Jim Morrison. Val looks and plays the part so well you could swear that is Jim himself.
I really like you two. I've only discovered this area of youtubefor about a week now and you guys are growing on me fast. Much Love.
Guys!!!! I love the doors!! Jim Morrison lead singer. 3 piece band and all that sound. You will not be disappointed listening to any song by them. LA woman needs to be next. Light my fire. Anything after that . These guys were 60’s band. They were controversial at that time. They touched dark issues in their music. Jim had an IQ of 145. He wanted to be known as a poet and he was. Tragic end at 27 yrs old died in bathtub in Paris motel. OD’ed on heroin.
His image was everywhere, RIP
The doors forever , abrazo grande chicos desde España ,Asturias un abrazo grande
This what you get when you put rock, jazz, country, and a poet together
Everybody's better off when we listen to each other! 💞🎶🔥✌
Shawn and Mel, love the songs you choose. You're really catching the heart of 'my' day.
The most unique band of all time
Jim Morrison was something else. He started out as a poet. One day a friend suggested he should put his poems to music. He did just that . But, he became a druggie and alcoholic. He was a arrested for indecent exposure on stage. He was so high on stage he could hardly stand. He O’D at the age of 27. He was buried in Paris France.
The beginning of that is actually called Texas Radio and the Big Beat. I don’t know why they didn’t credit it if they included it, because Love Me Two Times does it usually start with that. The Doors were amazing, cutting edge for their time and may be still today. Jim Morrison was a poet and always pushing boundaries, whatever that meant. They didn’t have a bass player, so Ray Manzarek played bass on keyboards. Be prepared if you dive down this rabbit hole, because you will be amazed, confused, and surprised. Welcome to The Doors.
"Darker hue" lol!!! Great line. Made me giggle.
Look at the views. 5.5 million in a day.
I can just look at him and listen to his voice, speaking.
"Mmm,those guys are so talented.".....you got that right!!
if you do 'light my fire' it MUST be the longer version!
Love to see you guys finding this great music from back in the day. The Doors has a lot to dig into. And it’s all really good. Psychedelic blues….
I’m surprised you have enough time being the biggest Creedence Clearwater revival fans ever!
Love the two of you.
Listen bop can’t stop
THE BRILLIANCE OF THE DOORS, "LOVE ME 2 TIMES". ALWAYS THOUGHT THIS BAND WAS AHEAD IT'S TIME. FROM THE FIRST TIME I HEARD "LIGHT MY FIRE". MORE... "L.A. WOMAN", "ROADHOUSE BLUES", "RIDERS ON THE STORM",
I really loved The Doors in the day, and still do. Their music was unique as was Jimi Hendrix music.
This song has been stuck in my head for 30+ years......
You should chk out riders on the storm if you haven't heard it yet! Its slow and smooth but good
Van Morrison was a 1 of a kind 4 sure CHECK HIS SHORT BUT GREATEST GIFT TO ALL OF US
Wow, this is a live version I have not seen before. The poetry he was doing at the front of this tune is a completely different song. All the guys hated Jim cuz all the girls loved him....lol. "La Woman", "Light My Fire" are two musts to get to know the Doors. You will like all the doors stuff, but be careful they did some "different stuff....lol.
One of my favorite songs ever 🤘🏻
I saw The Doors play in Canada, amazing band my favourite.
Vets always play the doors..Their music was way deep for the 60's...My hubby's music..
Check out "Love Her Madly" and "People Are Strange".
He was also known as THE LIZARD KING I believe he pick that up from his poems this is one of his quotes "Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free." Jim Morrison
Lead singer Jim Morrison is a member of the "27 Club" along with Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix! 🎼❤️🎸
Roadhouse Blues is another one. And L.A. Woman! When I left Inglewood in 79 and headed north, I played L.A. Woman on my way up the freeway!
Jim Morrison was a pure poet 🔥👵🏼☮️❤️
You notice there's no bass player? That's because the keyboardist, Phil Manzarek, is playing bass with his foot pedals while chording out the melody and running lead lines with the guitarist, all at the same time😲
you are not prepared for this beautiful poetry...
I loved your reaction to Roadhouse several months ago.. know you're gonna ❤️ this!!
The 60's was a time of great mingling in music. There were black guys like Jimi Hendrix doing hardcore rock, and white guys like Jim Morrison doing blues. It was a time of proving that what mattered was talent, no matter who it was - anyone could play anything and nobody would get bothered about it.
I love dvdrything here. The song. The reaction. 💟☮️
