I cant hear this song without thinking of the Francis Ford Coppala movie Apocalypse Now. The movie starts with this song. Vietnam themed movie
Hey JM, My son Mike called, I said...JM just did The Doors - The End.... He said, NO! KIDDING!!, That is one of the songs that you must hear to consider yourself a true connoisseur of Classic Rock, and some borderline insanity.... I said Yep.
I remember this tune coming out, 17 then. All-night LSD party with all the stunning music outlaw music, Doors, Led Zepplin, Country Joe & the Fish, Blue Cheer, Steppenwolf, the list goes on & on.
Jim wrote all the words. Ray Manzarek wrote all the music was the keyboard player.
In an interview Manzarek said Jim had no real lyrics and went into the booth empty handed and created most of the songs lyrics as they played following his hand gestures for intensity after one brief run through musically before recording. They had no idea what he was going to say and were not too surprised given the state of mind he was in at the time.
What a beautiful tragic tale of a song this is just chilling.
John Densmore's drumming in this is phenomenal, captivating, brilliant. from start to finish in one take.
Thanks for being courageous and reacting to this song...Jim Morrison never wanted to be a rock star, he studied film, and had a passion for Poetry...and the fates aligned, ...if every English teacher in America , gave two weeks to Dylan and Morrison, me thinks no one would thing Literature and poetry were boring ❤..great reaction my friend.✌️
Jim was an avid reader and philosopher, as well as a writer, and even playwright. He was almost obsessed with dark themes and death, and how they interact with life. He used to do things like walk on the railings of his hotel balconies, many stories high. While also high on drugs! This song has elements of the Greek Oedipus complex. "The End" is death, although the song also deals with Jim Morrison's parents - it contains Oedipal themes of loving the mother and killing the father. Morrison was always vague as to the meaning, explaining: "It could be almost anything you want it to be."
The End was Jim Morrison's improvisation song onstage. Every night he sang it, the extended poetry section in the middle was different. He used it to try out new ideas, scraps of poetry, lines he was toying with. But when they went into the studio and recorded it, that pretty much froze the song. Everyone expected to hear what was on the album, so the improvising faded out mostly. Onstage, he yelled out the climax of the Oedipal section, but that wouldn't fly on a record, so he mangled it. And all of those "fuck me"'s at the end were originally buried deep in the mix; you had to turn your speakers way up to hear them. Now it's not necessary to hide such stuff, of course, so when the album was remastered, those barking whispers were brought back up to the fore where they belonged.
Can't say enough about the Doors. Vocals, arrangements, and the keyboards..omg. so good.
My husband is a Vietnam Vet and he said that during boot camp the Drill Instructors would repeatedly yell "KI*L! KI*L! KI*L!" which Jim also did in this song. He may have gotten that line from the military - his father was a rear admiral in the Navy.
Amazing looking back that The End and Light My Fire were on the bands first album!
"The killer" DEFINITELY killed his Mother....but he "did something to her" first. It's ASTONISHING to me how many younger listeners/reviewers DON'T GET THIS Oedipal reference. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised but WOW.....just......wow.......
Well JM... Now you truly have stepped through the door into the world of Jim Morrison and The Doors. Imagine you are only 11 years old when this experience changes your life as you knew it... Great Mother Natures Finest helped a lot.
At 11 years old I had to buy this album with my own money knowing my parents would never approve of some of the songs on this album. I never played it with them at home,,,, But... brought it to many PARTY and everyone was happy. Light My Fire.... Yep, every time I hear that song.
Morrison was a poet, what might be called a beat poet, in that it was very disjointed with fairly indecipherable meaning, more like setting a dark mood. He was also a great vocalist and a self-destructive person who died way too young. Ray Manzarek was the greatest keyboardist in rock history, Robby Krieger was an awesome, versatile guitarist and James Dinsmore a brilliant drummer. Together they formed one of the greatest bands ever assembled. You entered a deep well here bro!
Another example of a band from the 60's that was totally unique. You can pretty much hear a song by the doors and you can tell it's them before 15 sec goes by. Love this song!
Recorded Live in One Take..... The Good Old Days Of Classic Rock.
