Lyrics:
Come on, turn the lights out, man
Turn it way down
Hey Mister Lightman
You gotta turn those lights way down, man!
Hey, I'm not kidding, you gotta turn the lights out
Come on!
What do we care...?
This is the end, beautiful friend
This is the end, my ownly friend, the end
Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I'll never look into your eyes again
Can you picture what will be
So limitless and free
Desperately in need of some stranger's hand
In a desperate land
Come on, baby!
And we were in this house and there was a sound like
Silverware being dropped on linoleum, and then
Somebody ran into the room and they said
"Have you seen the accident outside?"
And everybody said:
"Hey man, have you seen the accident outside?"
Have you seen the accident outside
Seven people took a ride
Six bachelors and their bride
Seven people took a ride
Sever people died
Don't let me die in an automobile
I wanna lie in an open field
Want the snakes to suck my skin
Want the worms to be my friends
Want the birds to eat my eyes
As here I lie
The clouds fly by
Ode to a grasshopper...
I think I'll open a little shop,
A little place where they sell things
And I think I'll call it "Grasshopper"...
I have a big green grasshopper out there
Have you seen my grasshopper, mama?
Looking real good...
(Oh, I blew it, it's a moth)
That's alright, he ain't got long to go, so we'll forgive him.
Ensenada
The dog crucifix
The dead seal
Ghosts of the dead car sun
Stop the card
I'm getting out, I can't take it
Hey, look out, there's somebody coming
And there's nothing you can do about it...
The killer awoke before dawn
He put his boots on
He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he...he walked on down the hallway, baby
Came to a door
He looked inside
Father?
Yes, son?
I wanna kill you
Mother...I want to...
Fuck you, mama, all night long
Beware, mama
Gonna love you, baby, all night
Come on, baby, take a chance with us
Come on, baby, take a chance with us
Come on, baby, take a chance with us
Meet me at the back of the blue bus
Meet me at the back of the blue bus,
Blue rock,
Blue bus,
Blue rock
Blue bus.
Kill! Kill!
This is the end, beautiful friend
This is the end, my only friend, the end
Hurts to set you free
But you'll never follow me
The end of laughter and soft cries
The end of nights we tried to die
This is the end
Possibly the coolest bastard to ever live
Neil, O Conner, Yes to me is was. Love Jim so much.
Watching the doors on really good weed is some experience...
... it's like Morrison and the crowd are having the longest orgasm in history!
Beautiful
One of them anyway
@@seasiderover10 seriously, I was stoned watching this and the killer awoke before dawn part literally made me tear up, not many songs have done that to me
Ur profile pic says it all
This isn't a song. This is an art masterpiece
It's both. It's a trip into a different dimension, spurred on by music and lyrical poetry that was born out of something terrible (in a good way).
That’s how Jim Morrison did things.
He was a poet.
For sure
Being a true artist... not a poo artist using autotune. Jim was one of kind artist that you knew he was under the influence but made such unforgettable music.
Agree
Love how no matter what Jim improvises his band stays right with him.... amazing man and band...truly one of a kind.
pilotguy77, yes I see that, I love how Robbie is always watching out for Jim and telling him when to tone it down or when the time is up. He was the one who could walk around as Ray (keyboards) and John (skins) could not, so it was Robbie's (guitar) job to keep Jim as tuned in as he could. They were great friends, No doubt about that! I love your comment! Yes pilotguy77 Thank you for bringing it up.Dusty the 2nd.
@@dustythe2nd188 great
Just loooove watching Jim!! Everyday, still love him, always will, hope to see him on the other side ❤❤
Imagine during rehearsals in studios. Lol
They were the perfect band for him. They just played music to whatever madness he was doing. It was brilliant.
Legend has it that the lights are still on
Hey I'm not kidding, you got to turn those lights off, man...
@@shreever9473 you getting spooked?....They only play it on the CD.
My lights have been off.
John McNally God bless you ✌️♥️
I was literally gonna say that 😂
Jim Morrison is not just a singer! A real showman, charismatic, witty personality! We will never find another Jim Morisson in rock n roll!
I want to take a moment to thank the light man. Without his stubborn nature, we’d have never had this epic moment captured so vividly on camera. I’m glad we actually got to see Jim at his best.
He’s Mr Light-man to you
I want this song played at my funeral!
Paul Campisi deixe anotado no seu testamento!
Wow. I never thought of that. I was all thinking of Chopin's Funeral March along with some Ravel and some Spike Jones' versions of the classics..
@@paulaharrisbaca4851 i too
My old man told me, this song played at his funeral friend
Paul Campisi, let me know and I will be sure it happens for you, I got the speakers and sound system to pull that off if you really mean that. Tell your family to look me up under this song Live and they will find me and I will hook you up dude. Love ya, and I ain't kiddin neither! Dusty the 2nd.
He was only 25 when he played this show, let that sink in
hes was 24
Remember
Club
@Hot Wings and 6 hours and 32 seconds.

It's worth being older now, to have been young then.
Fukken aye!
ABSOLUTELY!!WELL SAID
The truth
Yes! I saw the Doors after this concert in Phoenix. I was fourteen years old and it was amazing!
How could they be so much in sync and so much chaotic at the same time.. next level stuff.
lsd
They understood music, lyrics, rhythm. They don’t make musicians like this anymore….
Plus His Dad was a Admiral in the Navy and it was suspected that Jim had access to the cleanest form of LSD the CIA had to offer and Jim was a volunteer test subject
The psychedelia of The Doors wasn't the "Peace and Love Man!" variety. It was dark, menacing and cryptic.
And beautiful. It was the beauty of the Beast.
yeah, because jim was a government agent.
his father was the commanding officer during the gulf of tonkin incident - the hoax that started the vietnam war.
their nihilistic hippie doper schtick helped build destroy the anti-war left, and kept the fascist oligarchs maintain their grip on power.
...whether there is any truth to that or not, it’s pretty fascinating.
@@mj.l oh there’s some truth to it my friend, he leaked info on it all throughout his music, the spy, a feast of friends, his five to one speech and much much more
Kind of like now…and the late 60’s
for real
I envy the people at the concert.
Except the light man
@@maximumoccupancy hahahah
Mick Jagger was front row for this show
I was there!
@@denisedavis7422 Wow, lucky you. I was the other side of the pond, only 12-years old but definitely listening. If I'd been a few years older I'd have bought a plane ticket, crossed sides just for the music and probably never come back. Glad you're still with us.
Accepting the darkness inside is the first step in conquering it
Do not be afraid of the dark, it is only that you cannot see. Nothing to fear. Be calm and except it.
I have no desire to conquer it.
@@jeanettewaverly2590 then youll never know what true happiness is
Realize conquering darkness is not "accepting" it, it's the opposite. Refusing to accept it. You have to acknowledge it, and see it clearly before you can refuse to accept it. But the word "accept" often means thinking "I am what I am" or something like that. You don't conquer a drinking problem by continuing to drink, you don't conquering darkness by continuing to act in it. But just like alcohol, you have to be able to see the issue before you can kick it out of your life.
@@godwarrior3403 What is your explanation of this song The End.
One of the Most Mystical Performance in the Music's History
V PODER It is my fav video of them, 2nd comes Touch Me live on the Smothers Brothers Show.
I had heard this in the distance past, 20 minutes earlier I had played the Nico version and wanted to compare them. Not saying this is bad but Nico's version is much more atmospheric and superior!
the so-called trip of a drug addict - and it looks like art because initially Jim Morrison had exceptional abilities and a high IQ and he could have been successful in any direction but chose the destruction of personality
What ever this is , it stop being a song, its an experience, its art, its life ,its death, its everything
6:48 i love the fact he just said stop the car and the band stopped. and 7:27 explodes back in. the mix of vocal and instrument improvisation is beyond impressive
exactly so unexpected
I think Jim's LSD kicked in at @3:19 "What?" he says with his eyes closed and no one talking.
Lol if you watch the whole concert, you can tell he's tripping at like 5 minutes in
Hes in tune with everything..visible and invisible
Really? Are u sure? How do u know this???
@@gypsyjames8746 And peaking near the hour mark.
Dude I noticed that too
Jim was definitely gifted and had such insight, he was pure genious. Here in 2024 at 69 years old, when I listen to the Doors, the music takes me back to that simpler more meaningful place in time, it helps soothe my soul. Oh how I miss those days! Long live rock 'n' roll!
Thank you Jim, see you on the other side.!
We will see them on the others side when our time is up at the end ✌
@@marcellosqueri4388 I have to believe that dude, Jim is a guy you want to have a drink with and talk to for about 6 hours. Ya know? Dusty the 2nd,.
:yeah: dusty it feels like his my older brother One of a Kind the lizards. jim🎤 ray🎹 R.I.P. Time fly away
@@dustythe2nd188 good morning i see that's you spend lot of times writing about Jimbo that was very nice of you good memory .did u ever see or near him any where I wish I was there too. like I say feel like my older brother to me. there was to many good group at that time are you from California. Or England 4 hours ago Marshall Jim 🎤 ray🎹 R.I.P
@@marcellosqueri4388 No No and unfortunately no. Thanks for reading what I say, it seems to bring out alot of ugly in ppl (my comments) not sure why. But I love a positive person who comes forth and saves the day. Thanks Dusty the 2nd.
If this song isn’t played at my funeral, I will not attend it.
This version is so much darker and disjointed than the studio version. It's beautiful, but feels like I'm on the edge of psychosis. So much death in this version. It stirs my fear of cars. I'm currently on a fuckton of antidepressants and antipsychotics. So I've been listening to The Doors, Pink Floyd, and Bjork nonstop.
Relax m8 always remember the ride is the trip and the trip is the ride
well than stop if is puttin you there.
Wow
You shouldnt listen to music with lyrics. Trust me on that. Listen to meditation, chakra or shaman music
I'm a HSP possibly borderline, we process things deeper. Lyrics can become to overwhelming if your not in a good place. If you still wanna hear jims healing voice listen to his interviews.
im listening to this on Lyrica and strong beer 10%....im so chilllll :)
Listening to this song confirms to me that Jim had clearly been places that most of us haven’t and never will. 🤣
Ride the Snake. The spirit molecule?!
because of you, Jim. I write. Thank you, I love you, and this drink is for you.
Dillon All the pot I smoke is dedicated to Jim lol
Same here!!
Bong Scott I second that command
Cheers to Jim! I am with ya. Love Jim always have.
im drinking 10% beer now....that one is for THE DOORS ^^
Every artist has a little craziness in them... Can't blame it all on the drugs...this Man was a genius and knew how you express himself beautifully
To be fair, high dosages of lsd will drive anyone mad. Especially after repeated use of high dosages. I will say it does take some sort of insanity or ignorance to continuously do that to your mind.
The misconception is that drugs makes a person creative. Very untrue. You have to already have it in you. Or at the very least, be able to develop an intuition through experiences to feel and make something emotional.
The drugs were amazing these days
EVERYONE were pulling stuff from EVERYWHERE keeping it cohesive. MAD RESPECT TO JOHN DENSMORE...amazing feat to give the free flow a heartbeat
OMG! He’s amazing, never acting like a sexy rock star, he just was in his own world singing his poetry and dancing like no other! Cheers 🥃 for everybody who still listens The Doors in 2020. His dance 10,48...no comment
"U KNOW THE DAY DESTROYS THE NITE< NITE DIVIDES THE DAY< TRY TO RUN, TRY TO HIDE, BREAK ON THRU TO THE OTHER SIDE, WE CHASED OUR PLEASURES HERE< DUG OUR TREASURES THERE
married me!
And, unlike the way he was portrayed in the Oliver Stone movie, he wasn’t a drunk asshole who went around quoting his song lyrics and poems in his daily life. He probably was a little out of control towards the end but that movie is a travesty to Jim’s memory.
Bingo. Just a super cool guy
As a 16 year old I used to ride my Honda 150 from Inglewood up La Cienega to the Strip and try to sneak into The Whiskey. One night the Doors let me drag some of their gear inside.
This was the Doors at the peak of their talent. Jim was thin and hadn't started the hard drinking. What a fantastic film with great sound.
I used to joke that I played bass for the Doors.
I would have loved to grow up there at that time.
wow that is so cool
Man that’s amazing.
Was it by chance the infamous Aug 21 1966 gig?
The is also a shop in Amsterdam called The Doors ! It doesn't sell doors it sells weed good good and it has a wooden sculpture of Jim ! Peace on Earth
Now called The Store
There are no material doors that you can use to get out of one place, and into an other.
You can only really leave this place if you get on the level of a different dimension.
Poetry in motion 👌
Hey friend, I hope you know that you are always, eternally loved and supported. By me and so many others. I truly love and support you buddy, so keep being you and never ever stop having faith in exactly who you are, or who you have been, or who will become. Much love my friend. Rock on. ❤
wow
7:26 is one of the most intense sounds in history
agreed
Got me too. Dramatic pause then boom. True story telling in music.
THANK YOU
But that’s why we all love it! Gives me chills.
Yes that and tony iommis feedback roar!
This fucking band man. They created an atmosphere like no others since. This song takes me thousands of years into the past (and maybe the future?). "When The Music's Over" is just as sublime and terrifying as well. Jim was a fucking genius, but the rest of the members were all superb musicians and performers.
And I LOVE how Jim decides to sing/say whatever the fuck he wants right on the spot and the rest of the band just harmonizes perfectly with it. He was channelling the unconscious so effortlessly, and the band members were synchronizing with his poetry so effortlessly.
Love what you wrote man, excellent 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
"This fucking band man." And everything else you said better than I could've. Aren't all great poets/prophets just this sublime and terrifying?
The way the band just played to Morrison's lead, efing epic.
I'm convinced The Doors are the best American band of the 1960's. And there were some excellent bands.
Them and CCR.
Beatles?
@@raoulkeats1234 The Beatles were British. I said American band.
@@raoulkeats1234 Not American. lol.
@@blakeplaster7139yea they and CCR totally agree
this is one of the best performances ive ever listened to
One of the greatest live song ever !!
Dude was having visions mid song 😂love it!
If you drop some acid right before a concert, you got some visions for sure..
Legend has it, the lights were turned down the whole time
Thanks to Mister Light Man
6:26 love how robbie also looks down at the "moth"
"Hey Mister light man, turn the lights down", that is because his eyes are so dialated that the bright lights hurt his eyes!! He was on Uncle Cid! Just love this! Love to go to sleep with this playing.
MY HIGH SCHOOL NITES WERE FILLED W/JIM & THE DOORS. JUST ASK MY ONLY FRIEND, MY BROTHER, NEARING "HIS END". WHAT'S THE POINT OF GOING ON ONCE HE'S GONE???DON'T KNOW, HAVE TO WRITE SOME STUFF, PLAY SOME SONGS, drink some "southern comfort"??
although I find it hard to believe that he wasn't on acid, I think he genuinely wanted to set the mood for the song
@@liornaar9810 He was on acid for SURE here.
Okay dusty the 2nd. Where is the 1st and the 3rd?
@@mrmojorising- Dusty the 1st is dead, murdered, no Dusty the 3rd.
Whatt a voice, what an appealing, mysterious, mystic, incredible voice !! Totally stand out !
Omg I haven't listened to Jim in years..He still instantly gets me in a trance
I dedicate this song to my husband. He is gone from us 7 months now. We loved the Doors, And we had plans of going together off S. Mountain in my cool car. But he didn't wait for me.............God has his ways. We called it goin down isle #9. Check out please in isle # 9 we used to laugh, however I am now alone and it is not to funny now.
I'm really sorry for your loss
D2 I feel the love in your words & thou 2 yrs now it seems forever its only been a pause and as we speak he is with you now, all the good to ya'll
@@placeb0235 Thank you I know you too must have suffered a loss since you replied to me with a loving heart. Love & peace to you.
@@placeb0235 Thank you. I am sure you have had your own loss. Love out to you.
Who is listening this song in 2020...
Hit a like...
Rohit Koul I just listened to it and it still holds up. Thank you Baba Booey for that classic
Me
Me...
Every year man 🤟
every body who like The Doors ...
Greatest song of all time
Goosebumps, tears, euphoria , smile, laughter .... Jimmy ws a fuckin drug. Time to replay !!!
don’t know what world jim was in during this performance but it definitely wasn’t ours
he dropped acid right before this show so that probably affected things lol
He danced with native american's spirits.
@@MsRadar23 - And drunk a lot :D
His serotonin and Gaba receptors were fucked.
Dude was tripping the whole time, what did you expect 😆
True 😂
Jim Morrison Stands as One of The Greatest Lead Man Vocalist Poet Writer Take No Shit from Noone Musician and Remains The Most Brilliant Defiant and Outright Coolest MFR in Rock n Roll History !! A True Original A True Rebel A True Badass A True Artist and A True American Icon !!
Freddie Mercury was a better frontman then Jim Morrison, I get that Morrison was a poet but Mercury could play instruments and much more,
Anthony you are misguided.
Anthony rethink your statement Jim was on a level I don’t think you understand.
@@camronbay1 They're two different type of frontmen. Jim sends the audience into a sort of hypnotic state of wonder while Freddie could get the crowd sheering all together; united as one and all.
don't forget RAY and the others, for me Ray hits my soul the most, and Jim alike
Best lyrics ever
Can you picture what will be,so limitless and free,
desperlately in need, of some stranger"s hand,
In a desperate land
Sasa Dosen, love those lyrics, Dusty the 2nd.
Prophetic
The Doors....a trip to awaken one's self..
The band, how they carried his story, his antics, throughout their mind blowing careers is immortal.
His voice is very healing. As strange as that sounds if you think about the words that come out of his mouth. If anyone else sang those lyrics & screamed like that , i would be frightened.
The best song ever written.
Jim loved to do those war dances, that's when you know he was really getting into the song he was singing.. A great entertainer....
The greatest band of all times
"I'll have a big green grasshopper out there!" Lol God bless all✌️♥️
Words can't describe this masterpiece. Loved it since it came out on the album The Doors, and I have never heard this version before. No matter what version it is a timeless peace of art. The Doors created real art. When the Music's Over is in the same category
Hey Mr.light man,turn the lights way down 😂
I love that about Jim. Say it the way you want it!! Dusty the 2.
Lol every time some ones says to me turn the lights down I think on Jim lol
I'm not kidding mr lightman you gotta turn those lights down
Oh what do we care
Christian Bale knew how to deal with the light man.
Best band ever!!!!
He connected to the universe.
That's called dieing
No kidding.
The Doors "rocked the socks off" of the '60's generation! And every girl, including me were head over heels in love with Jim Morrison! And 57 years later, his face and voice still give me a rush❣
I’ll never look into your eyes again
Thankfully Jim found three of the best musicians he's ever known. Who could improvise and sync together.
The Year is 2022. This Is The End. God Bless Everyone.
never seen better live performance like that
Jim Morrison wore those leather pants for seven years straight.
I never want this song to end, Jim’s vocals are heavenly hypnotic..and the guitar intro, my God, so beautiful.
One of the best drum improvisations ever!
This is the greatest performance ever
THIS ART MASTERPEICE. is THRIVING, in the LOUVRE, of MUSIC LOVERS, everywhere! Long live the DOORS!
If anybody was wondering what the “ 6 bachelors and their bride “ line meant, basically since he was asking “ have you seen the accident outside ?” He means 7 continents, the one bride is Antarctica since it’s white on the map (brides wear white dresses) and the other 6 are the rest of the continents.
Jimmy was trynna say the accident outside is what’s happening with the world, crazy how you can think he predicted that the world would spiral downwards even more with time.
Thank you !!!
Dani Fayad7, where did you come up with that?? Really, I must know? I know he was a Shaman (One who knows) I have read so much about Jim that I cannot believe you without proof or at least a place you took it from. Dusty the 2nd.
I'll be honest, no proof or factual info to back what I said up, it's just analysing and connecting the dots w a brother (who is a big fan of the Doors), I myself listen to hip-hop so I'm used to denoting lyrics.@@dustythe2nd188
tbh as cool as that sounds, it probably doesn't mean that. 6 bachelors and their bride is just his humour. If it did mean that then that's really clever though
Thanks been a fan since 84 and never knew that
Best Drummer John Densmore
No way..keith moon..or bill ward..or ginger baker..or bonzo...for uk drummers...❤🇺🇲🇬🇧🇩🇪🇺🇦🇮🇱💪👊👊👊😎🤙
Whenever I think of what American singers should sound like, Jim Morrison is the standard.
JIm is a Genius. He can sing any phrase, and it would sound amazing
Among the greatest poets of all time
scrolled down a lot, best comment I found.
Recorded July 5th 1968. I wouldn’t be born for another 103 days. I wouldn’t hear and recall hearing this song for another 12 years later being played by my older cousin. I remember the where and the when and the feeling the song gave me. Forty years later; the song still gives me the same feeling and it’s one I cannot put into words with enough meaning to clearly define it. Thank you Robbie, Ray, John and Jim for such a feeling of a lifetime of memory.
The end is a 2020 anthem!
No.
and 2021 is not better....my fav song!!! THE END :)
@@weezor9578 here in Canada, the covid, the laws enforcement, the curfew at 20:00.....2021 seems like a NWO..
And this song is my freedom
What an incredible performer. Jim held nothing back and his heart and soul went into every note.
I am blown away seeing The Jim as he was. It's breath taking.
Fuking love this band
Fkn wow man. Can't believe I wasn't born into this era 😢
Feels good to see jim during my last moments
I was born in May 1968. The Doors are epic.
To All Those born After 1990 this is A BAND Performing a LIVE CONCERT with a REAL ICON !! No Lip Sync No Fake Musicians Pretending to Play to a Recording and No Big Screens No Holograms No Dancers or Pyrotechnics to Draw Your Attention Away from the Fake Musicians Pretending to Play !! Just 3 Guys and an Icon !!
Brian Palajsa, well said buddy, he was the real deal! Love Jim Morrison. Dusty the 2nd.
You sound so dumb. Just because the Door's are awesome does not mean everything else is shit in comparison. I love the 68 concert but there are still concerts today with no special effects, no lip syncing and bands that play simply amazing music with amazing vocals to back them. You sound like a typical Boomer.
Really? Jee i never would have guessed dumbass
I’m glad this experience was captured on video for all of us to enjoy.
Wow. Just wow. I never knew this existed. What a masterpiece ❤
My jaw dropped at 7:26. I never felt like this from just music and I’m a few months sober
10:08 i absolutely love this part. Ray begins to raise up the tunes and turns it into a mystical trip
I love to see how Jim always takes a bow at the end of his songs (Which shows class). Not only was he a musical genius, but he didn't know it himself until he met Ray Manzarek on the beach. Dusty the 2nd
Thus the saying "poet and didn't know it." They just channel it and can hardly believe it when the universe conspires.
Jim was such a free and loving soul.
This is not a song, it’s an out of body experience 🤍💫🤍 Beautiful man 🕊
what an absolute legend. RIP JDM
If you were at this show,you were a part of music history! Kudos
Love you Jim Morrison I was like 10 years old when you passed dear friend🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🙄🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲❤️🇺🇲 rest in peace Jimbo rest in peace lizard King thanks a lot mr. Jim Morrison thanks a lot buddy👍
As far as intensity and atmosphere go,nothing can reach the level of this song.The lyrics are something unheard of,amazing,hypnotizing,dark,oniric,mysterious just like the music...and nobody,I mean Nobody could ever duplicate Jim Morrison's charm,charisma and on-stage persona.He was one of a kind,he was awesome,a smart mind,a brilliant talker,he could handle the crowd like no others.A real artist in every aspect,the definition of the ultimate performer.The Doors are immortal and Morrison was,is and will always be one of the greatest artists...EVER.
밴드 도 멌있어요
You leave me Free, you make me feel reel, thanks to be what you are.
A great poète and a unkilled man 😊
Great improvisation...6 bachelors and their bride! Even my grand children love The Doors!
Poet and artist ❤ No one compares to Jim!
Wow. Hallucinating, breathtaking... This is pure trance.
The Doors hit different in 2020.
Poeta del caos, poeta, grande y dejó su firma con escritos y actualizaciones; R.I.P. / D.E.P.
Ya vamos llegando... ¡Relax! y Salu2!.G🍻
