Jim Morrison had one of the best screams ever.
Been waiting for a Doors video from you. I'd really love you to do something like 'celebration of the lizard'. It's something nobody else hs done I think, and something I would find very very interesting.
Check Kaleo
WAKE UP!
Is everybody in?
@@SynthApprentice what?
@@d-sidespazuzu8971 shut up!!
Actually, guitarist Robby Kreiger wrote the lyrics for "Touch Me" 😎
True and it shows that no Jim's Lyrics. actually the original title of the song was Hit Me … Jim asked Robby to change it to Touch Me
I 👏🏻 both of you for knowing this information
Not sure if you know this also but Krieger wrote most of the Doors most popular songs, like Light my fire, among others.
@@edlaw51501 love her madly
@@edlaw51501 Robby wrote 1 song per album but half from soft parade .
Maybe 10 from the band's 70 - 80 songs .
"He was a big fan of poetry."
Ummm.....Jim Morrison WAS a poet, actually.
Yeah, he was also a fan of poetry.
@@Michael69 He was also a poet.
@Marcia Carl I think you replied to the wrong top comment
Poems no less... The laddy reckons himself a poet!
Not many bigger Doors/Morrison fans then me. He was a poet and had read a lot of poetry. Some of his lyrics contain bits and pieces of poetry he had read. Most are his own words. The band name is from a poem he read. Robbie wrote several hits including Light My Fire.
He’s so relaxed lol. He was probably on 6 hits of acid. Love the Doors Jim is one of the greats.
6 hits and he'd be crawling on the floor, this was more of his alcohol phase. Though he does seem sober here hence the perfect performance. Reefer and lsd in the early days, bottle towards the end. The Doors and Jim Morrison are great nonetheless.
Not 6 maybe 2 or 3 and some alcohol
jim drank more alcohol than acid at this time. stop romanticizing his addiction plz!!!!!
He was on coke.... look at his eyes
Vinny , he was more likely half drunk.
Morrison was a big Sinatra fan, a big fan of crooners like Bing Crosby and Elvis Presley. He was really stoked when the engineer showed him the mic they were using for the first Doors album. Morrison knew it was Sinatra’s choice of microphones.
Scott Mackenzie nuemann
The funny thing though his father didn't think Jim Morrison could sing?! apparently true?
@@thesound-chameleonman3580 the trick with Morrison is you have to understand that he couldn't sing lol He wasn't a singer and never tried to sing before joining the Doors and he never trained to be any type of vocalist. That is part of why his voice considered so unconventional
Little richard
He was a fan of Cannet Head
If you want to see Jim in his best look for "When the music´s over 1968 live Europe."
Yes. In Copenhagen 1968.
Yes! Please!!
YES YES YES

That's what I was thinking
"Again he's so relaxed" - cause he was smashed mate
Morrison was drunk lots of the time according to many many sources.
@@Pimp-Master Drunk most of the time? What dumbass sources are you getting this from
The poor lad rest his soul used to do Acid mate
@@Pimp-Master every book ever written about him, sadly. I'm reading "Noone here gets out alive", some of the stories are just insane (and I grew up in the bush!). Sad story of excess but amazing soul.
or he just "Smashed"...
The Doors' song you should really react to is Soft Parade. The melody changes numerous time over, and so does the singer's voice.
"All our lives we sweat and save.. building for a shallow grave. Must be something else we say, somehow to defend this place"
My favorite song. Its like 3 songs in one
This is the best part of the trip
This is the trip, the best part
I really like
(What he's saying?)
The soft parade , live in P.B.S !!!!!!!!!
the soft parade is definitely my favourite doors song :)
Ok. But only if her bubbly self explains the song first...
The smile of Beth is brighter than my future
Women just have to smile when looking at Jim Morrison.
Not saying much! 😂
@@brianf.8996 That really hurt bro
Yes he was a huge fan of both Elvis and Sinatra. Please do more! He's my favorite of all time
Just for your knowledge jim was a big fan of elvis but more in his childhood . In 68-69 jim was in fact a bit more jealous of him because of his great comeback.He was more of a rival to him and prefered by far gene Vincent whom he helped do his comeback .
@@eleazardelagrange9169 I'm not sure about that bc they got Elvis' bad player to play on a couple of their albums and they said he was ecstatic... And he got to use Sinatras mic!
@@midnightcryptworx they got Elvis bass player on their last album LA Woman
I love The Doors and Jim Morrisons voice is so smooth. He always had amazing poetry in his songs and it seems many bands from that era did. He died far too young. Thanks for this reaction
Robby Krieger wrote just about all of their songs, including this one.
@@deadunionsoldier6526 Not almost all their songs but certainly a lot that became hits....
Jim Morrison will always be my favorite. Singer, songwriter, frontman. He was one of a kind.

Morrison had an incredible voice. Greatest rock and roll crooner that has stood the test of time. Generation of generation turns to the Doors sound! Still! Legendary!
Jim Morrison is the GREATEST!!!
period
Gosh I love the doors. They were brilliant in and out of the studio. And Jim's vocals are to die for. ❤❤
And on maraca-Jim Morrison, ladies & gentlemen!
gordon thomas ...LOL
One of my fave The Doors tunes for sure. Musician Rick Beato did a breakdown of this song as one of his "What makes this song great?" series here on youtube that might be of interest to some folks around here. Well worth looking it up.
Rick is on another level , compared to most in the music business . His talents on MULTIPLE instruments are incredible . He is extremely well educated and experienced in music as a musician , producer and performer . He has no attitude because at his level , he doesn't HAVE to prove anything . We are lucky he shares his knowledge on You Tube .
I second this. Rick Beato really goes into the production behind this stuff, and the way instruments are layered and the effects used and such. A bit over my head but still very interesting!
Thanks for turning me on to Beato!
I love the way he struggles to change hands between the mic and shaker. He gets on with the verse and then manages to swap. Love you Jim.
What a voice! Resonance! Sensitive delivery! Thanks for sharing!
As a hardcore doors fan i love THIS VIDEO because i honestly think Jim has one of the greatest voices i’ve heard... and she didn’t butcher that. she was a genuine critic and seemed to be enjoying it which i loved!
The Doors are still awesome.
the best
Totally.
Always will be
That will never change
"I'll always be a word man, better than a bird man."
--J. Morrison
Finally Jim Morrison here! My heart has just melted🖤
Morrison is a god, the best in his day and today. nobody like him and there never will be. Salutes from Mexico
I have seen so many Spanish comments and videos regarding The Doors...are they really big down there?
@@jdm1066Among Mexicans, they're regarded as gods to this day because of the Oedipal Section of The End.
When The Doors played in Mexico City in 1970, they were struck by the reaction to this. When the Oedipal Section approached, all the men in the room shushed each other so insistantly that they sounded like a room full of snakes. When Morrison said "Father? Yes, son?", all the men yelled "I WANT TO KEEEEEL YOU!!!!" The first time that happened, Jim jumped back a step. "Mother?" "I JUAN TO FAHHHHHCK YOU!!!!"
When I went to my pal Katrina's birthday party in Feb 05, the place was full of her & her husband's friends & family, & several friends from the South Side Punk Scene. Almost all were Mexican. They had karaoke, so my pals said I should sing something. Normally, I'd've been too terrified (this being in my Dude Past Life, testosterone brain damage, etc.), but I was nicely toasted & among friends, so I sang Back Door Man, in my Navy Pea Coat & everything. It took me 20 minutes to get back to my table, cos all the hot Mexican kittens grabbed my coat as I went by to say how great that was. Everyone there knew The Doors well. My Punk Rock pal was stunned by the reaction that got, so I explained it. He said, "1970? All these years later, you sing that & they went nuts?" I was kinda surprised, too, actually.
@@emilyadams3228 nice!
@@jdm1066 yes they are but then again they are great worldwide ! Cheers
Love the last line...stronger than dirt.
Showing your age knowing that old Ajax commercial!🤪
My favorite part of this performance is Robby's black eye XD
Actually, three guys started to harass Morrison, down the street from where The Doors' office was. Krieger went to aid Morrison, and while Jim was able to avoid a punch, Robby was not so lucky. The night they played the Smothers Brothers show. Makeup asked Krieger If he wanted the shiner covered up. He said no, because whom else had ever gone on national television with a black eye.
Beth is looking bloomingful this spring!!
Jim Morrison: part lounge singer, part super-geeked freak.
part lizard king
One of my favorite songs from Doors 😍 Jim’s superb here!
😢❤ Love him. When I was a teenager, everyone was into New Kids on the Block and I was listening to The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, and Janis Janis Joplin.
FAB review!!! MY FAVE clip of Jim singing live! WHAT A VOICE at such a young age- his charisma, his presence, his talent, beauty and handsomeness WOW what an Adonnis! Kimberly
The Doors are one of my favorites, thank you so much for reacting! I think there are only like two vocal reactions on TH-cam lol.
Jim Morrison is one of my favorite singers. And apparently he never had any singing lessons! Frank Sinatra was said to be one of his main vocal influences. I love how his voice had such a warm tone, but he could just absolutely scream out of nowhere haha
@@aidanbouw5224 You need professional help, dude.
React to Break on Through (To The Other Side) it would be interesting for you to react on that one
Xcelent profile pic.
LOVE Jim's hair here- WOW GORGEOUS-his wole looks WOW! ...and his voice- he told interviewer's his favorite singer was Frank Sinatra and with this song, he was trying to sing in the manner of Frank's style and tone- we LOVE IT! THANKS! Kim & Larry!
I saw this as it first aired on The Smothers Brothers Show in ‘68.
“Touch Me” was quite a departure for The Doors compared to their other songs; it was a lot more pop/commercial in its sound and style than other songs from the band.
And, because of its shorter length, it received heavy rotation on AM radio, which was still pop music centered in those days, but which also tended to only play songs of three minutes or under.
I think a part of Morrison liked being a “crooner” vocally; when The Doors were recording their first album in ‘66 at Sunset Sound in LA, Jim was pleased to find that he would be singing into a Telefunken U47 mic, and knowing that Frank Sinatra always used a U47, it made him happy, as he was a fan of Sinatra.
With this song, he was able to sing the “I’m gonna love ya” sections in a crooning style, and the contrast between this and the more rock vocal style he sang on the other sections worked well for the song.
The music was pre-recorded for this show, (as was common in those days for TV, though the band may have also been playing live here, but very softly, just to support the recorded backing track)...but Jim’s vocals were all live, as can obviously be seen and heard when he makes a mistake and misses the vocal cue in the middle, not singing the four “C’mon’s”...and when he realizes there’s only silence where he should be singing, he comes in with a hurried and strong “Touch me babe” on the downbeat.
I don’t think Jim Morrison was the best rock lead vocalist ever, his range was limited, and there were times he was more than just a little pitchy...
BUT... BUT...he absolutely had his own style happening, his own unique vibe, and it absolutely worked for what The Doors did.
While rock vocals would eventually become generic, and some bands could have swapped their lead singer with another band’s lead singer without much difference, there’s no possible way that could have ever happened with Morrison and The Doors, because no one else could have ever even come close to being “Jim”.
🙏
Jim Morrison was a damn good singer. Great style, warm tone. He could easily switch from sweet crooning voice to a raspy rock delivery. A total natural.
FYI: The guitarist wrote this one. In the original lyrics it's "C'mon, c'mon, now hit me babe"
The Doors featuring the greatest keyboardist in rock history, Ray Manzarek...Jim Morrison had a great voice, and was an absolutely brilliant man, 150 IQ or so. Robby Krieger wrote this song along with The Doors biggest song, Light My Fire....and he was a great guitarist also.....in the short time there were with us The Doors established that they were absolutely GREAT !!!
Jim Morrisons charisma still charms the Ladies. I swear she is blushing from time to time and her vibe for Jim shows❤ Love it!
“He’s so relaxed”....😂
One of his idols was Frank Sinatra. And it shows.
Yeah and elvis
Frank fucking hated him though.
Beautiful Voice. Perfect.
Yay, I've been wanting you to react to Jim Morrison for so long!! Great video :)
He is so “relaxed” ... that He forgot to come in at the beginning of the 2nd verse:)
@Gregory ValensLuv I always figured he was too busy jamming with his maracas.
I think he bobbled the microphone.
He was stoned as hell and he thought the maracas was the mic. Goat jim Morrison 😍
The god was must on drugs
I've read that a lot over the years but never agree with it. I think its a dramatic pause, he does a little jump and empathise the 'Touch me babe' when he lands. Love that bit.
Jim Morrison es mi ídolo desde los 12 años, tenía una voz hermosa y nadie en la actualidad se le compara.
I love your description of vocals that I've heard so many times! Now I hear them in a totally new way. Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much!
He had such a natural singing voice
The Doors were never one of my favorite bands, but massive respect for what they did. Totally different, no bass and that voice. Morrison was twenty something, but that voice of his was timeless, like it had been around for centuries. And let's not dismiss Manzarek, Krieger and Densmore. Really it was the whole package that made the Doors so impactful.
The lizard king could do anything,been around since the world began........
I’m sure he never had a lesson! And that shows your natural tone voice is the most impressive not the manufacturered
Robbie Grier exactly . It’s all about singing from your heart and soul to the listener in an honest and direct way
I love this and Jim✨
This is the song I can't help but sing along to anytime I hear it, I love it so much!
Really excited ...Jim Morrison my favorite singer .. granted, he didnt have the highest vocal range but compensate with a beautiful tone versatile voice .. he could rock out ..and sing like a velvety crooner ..The Doors my favorite band!!!..... He never had a vocal training never sang until 23.....his favorite singer was frank sinatra and it shows heheee
Yeah, for a kid with no vocal training he really did have a gift. Unfortunately, he left this world waaay too early.
Jim Morrison can sing a Eb6...
He actually had a pretty damn good vocal range. Nearly 4 octaves.

Jim Morrison es arte ♡
The guy was a one off , he had everything physically and mentally 👌
legendary singer, poet, frontman, rocker he had the whole package
Beth's uploads = the greatest part of your morning.
she is lovely
We all know she's very talented but can we all appreciate how gorgeous she is?
Simp
Thanks for reacting to this song! "Touch Me" is one of my singing goals and that live performance in particular inspires me a lot. Great to see your comments through the song.
your the only vocal coach i watch anymore beth because nobody else is as good as you are at explaining exactly how the vocalist is doing what there doing with there voice. not even close even. that and i know your a metal head at heart and i freakin' love that about you.
Just loved the keyboard introduction and ongoing backing. Ray Manzarek was the best of the best. How energetic are his fingers!
Ray was definitely a talented keyboardist. Playing the main keyboard with his right hand and playing bass keyboard with his left hand, and never missed a beat.
I have been playing mojo rising since the start of the lockdown and I am a big The Doors fan an looking forward to more tracks played by them an with ur commentary beth
Beth your Awesome!!! And thank you for this!! My Favorite Singer!! More Jim please!!!
Lovwd it, please do more Morrison videos he had an incredible vibe

Can you do a video of Break on Through. I love the raspiness of Jim Morrison's voice on that song. Its something that many other singer like Kurt Cobain later imitated. Jim made it look super easy.

you probably dont care at all but does any of you know a tool to log back into an Instagram account..?
I somehow forgot my account password. I love any tips you can give me
@Edward Cason Instablaster :)
@Westley Travis Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now.
Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
"again he is soooo relax"
me : he was probably drunk and stoned out of his mind lol
Thank you very much Beth!
Jim is clearly high as hell here but he can pull this type of performance magnificently. Very few people can pull this off. Jim was truly one of a kind.
I cant unsee him as Will Ferrell since Will did a skit as Jim
Go look up Craigslist by Weird Al.
Ha, I just now realize that Jack Black did some version of "Touch me" in School of Rock.
Finally!! I was expecting this video
There hasn't been a voice like his since. His brand of goose bumps can not be re-created.
“He’s so relaxed”
I’d be relaxed too if I had a liter of Jack, 5 different pills and enough barbiturates to take out a horse in my veins.
Sheesh he was a gorgeous man! No wonder my mother went apeshit each rime she'd see him,lol
Jim es lo más! Thanks Beth.
I've enjoyed that video! Your reaction combined with your music knowledge made me re-enjoy a well known song. Keep up the good work!!!
You're very pretty. Elvis and Sinatra were his two favorite singers. Fact.
It's a Robby KRIEGER's song (this includes music and lyrics, this wasn't Jim for this one notably). He was the doors's guitarist and he wrote many songs for the band, who are generally became hits. But the doors was four members and personnalities anyway.
A much underrated musician. Also a fan of Densmore, on drums. All great, but Morrison and Manzarek got most of the attention.
You are wonderful Beth
Um-Fun Fact Beth-I was a kid when I became a Doors fan. At the end of the studio version of this song they sing Stronger Than Dirt. That was a commercial that was on the TV everywhere back then-I think it was Ajax laundry detergent.--- Brian Birch
2:39 whooo boy... had to take a moment there. 🥰😂
She said, “he’s so relaxed” lol you would be too if you had that many drugs in your system... 😬
fr homeboy was a walking pharmacy
Actually he was much more of a drinker (an alcoholic actually). Did LSD, reefer early on but went way more to alcohol by this time. However in this TV appearance pretty sure he's totally sober (hence the excellent performance). Don't get your info from the faulty Stone film - read. There are plenty of good books about him out there.
Who wasn't in the 60's? I think for Jim relax meant to completely passed out, done and gone lol. Meanwhile, he was a "natural" chaotic, dark and poetic performer on stage. The last thing he wanted was to be "relax' on stage. lol So, I don't think he used drugs to feel "relax".
Blayne, I agree with your comment 100%.
Yeah, unfortunately he was known as a garbage head. But I'd bet, alcohol was his drug of choice - same with Janis ... and Grace Slick (who made it out of the 60's, 70's, and 80's alive. She's still alive, clean, and sober - never took the smack though).
It's so true he does have a very crooner-esque voice. Sinatra, Martin etc. But he was only in his early 20s! Fantastic voice for someone of that age
Alice Cooper had it too, not in the rock stuff but when he did ballads.
I started listening to The Doors/Jim Morrison in high school and soon became a little obsessed. I don't listen to them so much these days, but the love remains and apparently all the facts, that my 15 yr old self committed to memory, still float up like it did when i watched this video. Thanks for this reaction.
What a lucky lol I was about to search for Jim Morrison's reactions when the TH-cam just pops me up this one. Hey, I'm expecting someone to analyse Brad Roberts from Crash Test Dummies..That would be really interesting too
Dream Theater - Learning to live (live), where he hits (?) F.
Thanks for this! What's most impressive is that the vocals only are live. In those days, the music was all sync'd to the original recording but the vocalist (Jim in this case) is totally live. This from a guy with absolutely no vocal training, just love of great lyrics (these written by Robbie) sung with feeling and sincerity, and a huge Sinatra and Elvis fan (whose influences you of course can hear - as you so rightly stated). My all time favorite band!
more doors, more Jim Morrison live shows. Love this reaction, cheers!
Singing this like one of the old time crooners.
Beth, you look so beautiful 😍😍😍
This outfit really suits her.
Jim Morrison....Crawling King Snake.... I have the albums, from their original The Doors, to L.A Woman. Listened to them. Had a kick for Psychodelic Rock, throwing in some blues, when i was in elementary school. the first song that ive heard from them is The Crystal Ship. Very soft, yet so warm. It immediately starts you off with a beginning touch of Jims Vocals. Literally. This song seems to have a catchy tone, then it brings into Jim with his vocals. Pretty cool. RIP Jim Morrison
I've been loving Jim Morrison's baritone since 1966, when I was 17. I'd love to hear Beth take a deeper dive into his dynamics - perhaps with "Love Me Two Times" or "When The Music's Over".
Pls do ''About A Girl'' - Puddle Of Mud
Lmao no, please don’t
Jim Morrison has zero vocal training and his family were surprised he was in a band and more a singer
I think his vibrato technique is brilliant, it's at a tremolo speed that's in six to the beat, very hard to control what is basically a throat spasm in such a way.
@@gergatronic that's my point singers today say they are trained and he wasn't amazing
He's the very definition of a rock star! Not the only one but yeah .
GREAT analysis. Thanks :)
React to "The Doors - Light My Fire
Live on the Ed Sullivan show"
This!!!
Can’t believe I just though of it but You should do some Tom Waits. It would be a great reaction.
Tom Traubert's Blues would be interesting
Hey! I've just done a reaction to Tom Waits - Chicago. Take a look here: th-cam.com/video/dMHJqd-lpsE/w-d-xo.html
Beth Roars saw it yesterday it was awesome. Might be cool to do one when he was younger like ole 55 or I hope I don’t fall in love with you to show the difference. It’s like 2 different singers.
The Doors, my favorite band since age 10 in 1975. Props to the JAMES LAST ORCHESTRA!
There was an amazing amount of talent (and electricity) on that stage -- so long ago. I remember it well.
