    Jim's birthday is December 8, 1943. This song was recorded in "August 1966." Hence, he was 22 years old when it was recorded. If he had been 27, it would still be a remarkable achievement.

    This song was released on their first album in 1967. Jim was only 23 when they released their first album he died at age 27. Also the Doors had no bass player either just a guitarist drummer and keyboardist and Jim Morrison on vocals. Morrison's father ( George Stephen Morrison) was a Rear Admiral in the US Navy. The Doors also played the Ed Sullivan Show only once as they were told to change a word in the song Light My Fire and not to use the word HIGHER but the Doors went ahead and sung it just like they wrote it and used the word HIGHER they ( The Doors) were never invited back after breaking the censorship request. Even the Rolling Stones had some words changed in the song Lets Spend the Night Together to Lets Spend Some Time Together. You must listen the song called THE END it will take you on a wild trip.

      Yes. Many people assume that their first single was “Light My Fire.” Actually, “Break on Through” was their first single.
      I believe this unedited version of “She gets high” is a re-mastered version. Pretty sure the original single and album both were edited to “She gets” and then “ahhhhh.”

In 1963, Morrison took command of the aircraft carrier USS Bon Homme , he was at The Gulf of Tonkin incident which kicked off the Vietnam War. July 2, 1971, in Washington D.C there was a decommissioning ceremony for the carrier, Morrison's first ship as an Admiral. His son, rock musician Jim Morrison, died in Paris at age 27 the following day.

    Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, and Jimi Hendrix, all from that same era, were Rock super stars, and all died at age 27. They are all members of the infamous "27 club." These three giants of the late 60s "Classic Rock" era, all passed away in drug, and or alcohol related overdoses, within a year to 18 months of each other. All were 27 years old. that is how the term "27 club" came to be. Jimi, Janis, and Jim. All three of their first names also started with the letter J. I never really noticed that before. All three of them are Rock Royalty. At least we still have all of their great music and video to listen to and watch.

    In 1966 my father was a 19 year old student at UCLA. He was a pot smoker like the majority of younger people back then, especially in California. The thing to do back then for fun was go to the beach, to parties, and to all the concerts (which in L.A. was a nightly thing). In August the Doors played almost every night at Whisky-A-Go-Go on Sunset Boulevard. My father and his friends went to see them, and they took acid, and it really blew their minds. My father went to see them again that August at the Whiskey 6 more time, but he didn’t take acid again because he wanted to see and hear and remember the show exactly as it was. Everyone knew they would be famous, it was just a matter of getting a record out.

It was Jim and his ability to not really sing so well, but to be passionate.

    Jim was younger than 27 when this song came out. The Doors were huge even before his death ( he died at 27). They were cutting edge during those years. The Doors were a great band. Mixed blues, jazz/bossa nova, pschodelic, hard rock. 🎸. Jim had the voice, charisma and looks. Sadly Jim partied way too much (drugs and alcohol) and demised his health at a young age. He was also very wild, rebellious and in trouble with the law often. Lived a fast life.
    BTW. Michael Jackson was like 7 years old when he started singing for Jackson 5. Another young protege.

    He was 22-23. The "gets high" part was edited out of the finished song and was only returned recently for an anniversary edition. Much of the classics from the sixties were created by young geniuses. For instance, none of The Beatles were even thirty when they split. Jimi Hendrix died at 27, as did Jim Morrison.

    Morrison was about 23 when this song was recorded in August 1966 (released in January of 1967). He died at the age of 27. Morrison is one of the members of the "27 Club" - artists who died at the age of 27. A few of the notable musicians:
    Robert Johnson (Delta Blues legend)
    Brian Jones (Rolling Stones)
    Alan "Blind Owl" Wilson (Canned Heat)
    Jimi Hendrix
    Janice Joplin
    Ron "Pigpen" McKernan (Grateful Dead)

    A friend of mine who was into the Wiccan religion said that the lyrics to this are straight out of that tradition - the day destroys the night, the night divides the day, describes the conflict of opposites that makes each other possible. Without night there would be no day, without day there's be no night.

Jim was big in the teen magazines when they got big, because his long hair & leather pants. Then the big incident in Miami on stage where he was charged with indecent exposure. They were big back then. Oliver Stone revived them in the early 90's withe his movie The Doors starring Val Kilmer.

    There wasn't a lot of yelling in music back then until ... well, this song and a few others were played daily on the radio. Opened the door to a whole other level of screaming in music afterward. The 60s was a time of chaos and outright rebellion, defiance against the status quo. Music was the primary mechanism for protest back then.

    Hi Brad and Lex. I first got into The Doors from the Oliver Stone movie in 1991. Then, I looked into them further and discovered all the inaccuracies of the movie, but got to love The Doors more and more. Although, I did enjoy the movie, the portrayal of Jim Morrison was unfair and not really in his character, amongst other inaccuracies. The other band members carried on and even made brilliant albums after Jim's death. I was delighted to see the band 'Riders On The Storm' in Glasgow in 2007. That band featured Ray Manzarek on Keyboards and Robby Kreiger on Guitar from the original band The Doors. That was a concert I will never forget for as long as I live. I've since seen 'The Doors Alive', which are a great tribute act. See them if you can. Æx 🙏

    THE DOORS-The band took its name from the title of Aldous Huxley's book The Doors of Perception, itself a reference to a quote by William Blake. it elaborates on his psychedelic experience under the influence of mescaline - the insights he experienced, ranging from the "purely aesthetic" to "sacramental vision",[1] and reflects on their philosophical and psychological implications. Mescaline (3,4,5-trimethoxyphenethylamine) is a naturally occurring psychedelic protoalkaloid of the substituted phenethylamine class, known for its hallucinogenic effects comparable to those of LSD and psilocybin.
