@@davidmazon7516 I think that JM considered himself more of a poet than a Rock star. This piece is more like a poem that he speak sings, for the most part.
I’m a 75 year old female. I listen to the Doors every week when cleaning my house and 1/2 bottle of wine. When the Music is Over is my favorite song. But, when I die, I’m going to be cremated, I want them to play Light My Fire. LOVE THE DOORS.
I will be 75 in Nov. so I am a couple of yrs. behind you (according to your comment date). Either way, I have been a Doors fan throughout their career, short as it was. I have all of their albums and also have them on C/D's and listen to them often. My favorite album is "American Prayer". Not only for the music, but it demonstrated Jim Morrison's poetic creativity. Have you read the book "No One Here Get's Out Alive"?
At this time in the 60s and early 70s I was a singer and our band would end with this song or "The End" every night. I can still sing it word for word at age 70. We had a great light show and the lights would follow me every step of the way, strobe lights and all. It was a lifetime experience. Great music!
Very hard call... but no doubt it’s a juggernaut. Seamless, big pic, epic scale force of nature beast of a song. I love riders and the end too on the same level but this may have been their most potent punch of lyrics and sound.... the brothers had it right, this song launched a lot of ships. Consider this was being performed in the whisky in the summer of 66. Nobody at that point was doing stuff this potent and challenging, not even Floyd. The doors had a big impact on zep and Floyd imo. Morrison was inconsistent and destructive and that hurt them some legacy wise. Also they alienated many from them in the industry. But I will always say this, when he was dialed in, there was no bigger and dangerous force I rock from 66-68 then this cat. Singular epic when they got it right.
Commercially not, I mean break on through and riders of the storm are more appreciated generally. But perls like this, Crystal ship, five to one are surely better than this.
Imagine its a warm night in LA, you’ve dropped some sunshine an hour ago and now ready to fire up some fine sinsemilla. The 427 Corvette awaits!!! And you’ve got the best custom car stereo in the city. You pop in the first Doors tape of the evening, volume way up. Engage 1st gear and let out the clutch………..😊
Ah The Doors. Their name was inspired by The Doors of Perception by Aldous Huxley. It was a book about Aldous' experience with the hallucinogen mescaline. Ray Manzarek (keyboard player) and Jim Morrison read that book and that's where they got the name for their band. Excellent reaction!
What did your peers say when this first leaking out to ears... I’m a big history and music buff, in late 67 (it was actually played live in 66),there was nothing with this crucible raw potency combined with such well structured poetic lyrics. Dylan blonde on blonde is an icredible lyrical and sound achievement. Pet sounds, are you experienced, velvets 1st album. All landmark. But this is even more potent, raw, yet expansive. Jaw drop I would think when first heard... you were lucky to come up in such a great era... what was the early take on the doors and thismthat first year of their reign?
Probably their greatest song. I am 78 now and was a Doors fan from the first time I heard this on a car radio in 1967. I saw them three times and the best was the May 1970 show in Detroit. I still listen to their music a lot.
People used to rush the stage during the climax of this song.. Morrison once complained that it was always dudes that rushed the stage and never any girls..
Caught their wave in 1967 , been riding it ever since . Jim was a genius with an IQ of 149 . Besides being the lizard king ofcourse. Loved the reaction .
a misonomer about morrison was that he was an atheist or anti God.... he was anti phoney spirit. anti controlled. morrison saw the modern organized spirtual scene as suffoicated and political.... he want a resurgence of passionate spirits. hes yearning for Christs pure vision. the one against the empire of rome. pure tap root spirit to Light. the rose in the desert.... hes basically warning us we are so screwed and controlled that we need the pure light.
Continue with the doors bros :) the soft parade, Crystal ship, Love street...Ghost song!!...or some blues vibe like Cars hiss by my window! Greetings from Croatia 💪🏼
Well the Music Is your Special friend. Dance on fire as It intends. Music Is your On my friend. Until The end 😻😻😻 Thank you so much for this reaction! It was such a treat!
You GEORGE boys have a Rock & Roll soul. You've brought a new perspective to how much we are all the same in this world. Thank you for all your hard work and bringing so much great music to us all. You're helping bring people all over the world together with understand and the joy we all share in good music. Thanks guys - all of us in America appreciate all your reactions and the love you share with us.
" This is how you get high without substance" that might right but how do you think how it is when you turn down the lights, close your eyes and smoke a joint? trust me, it's next level, that's how I experienced it the first time with my mate ( ; doors are amazing and as Ray Manzarek said "Jim and I wanted to make psychedelic music and poetry" well that worked out well
The doors were the perfect match of musicians and singer. Ray, John, and Robbie set the mood for Jim, also allowing him room to improvise. Jim was a captivating singer, relaxed and natural. And, wow, could he deliver a song. What a singer. What a front man.
Love how you guys got into this musical journey / trip, "Music is your special friend...." Jim got you with his visceral "NOW". The song transported you back in time and you've now experienced what it was like back then but without the drugs! The Doors were a huge and influential group in their time and helped define the late 60's Zeitgeist. Great reaction.
The Doors = American Originals. Over 50 years later, they remain Unequaled. Never before and never since. There are rock groups and then there are The Doors.
This was the first time I’ve ever heard this song too and I was BLOWN AWAY & felt TOTALLY HIGH TOO - just the same as you guys! WOWWW!!!!!! WHERE on earth have I been all my life to have missed this incredible masterpiece???!? I don’t know but, I’m just grateful I FINALLY found it! 😅😆 THANK YOU 🙏 guys for doing this great reaction… I think you did EVERYONE a favor by listening to this one. 👍Keep up the good work! Bye 👋 Julie in Texas
@@kelvinkloud ok, I tried that song and I just didn’t get it. I guess it was too much for me. A bit too “ out there for me to relate to. But , I could see by the live video footage that I chose to watch that there were TONS of people who DID get it an thoroughly enjoyed it-- especially the women !😄😛 So , it’s just people like me who are a little weird I guess… just not accustomed to that style of music or cut out for it… but I’m not knocking it! I really liked the other one!! 🤷🏻♀️ (I tend to like more things from the 70’s and after but I’m ALWAYS open-minded❣️) ✌🏻
The voice and lyricism of Jim Morrison was absolutely incredible. Combine that w the rest of the Doors and u get the most unique band in history. They were only together for 5 years.
The Doors and Jim Morrison reminds me of sitting in a coffee house or tea room and people would get up to the stage and start singing or reciting poems and people would snap their fingers while listening to them. They were the best.
In the 60’s when the Doors came along, everyone loved them because they took you on a special journey. The lyrics were not always about live and peace. They were often more introspective and sometimes dark. It made people think deeper about Life. They played a lot at the Whiskey A Go-Go in LA. They had a huge following, they had big hits on the radio, and Jim Morrison was considered an American poet and a real sex symbol of his time. Lyrics are awesome! He always pushed everyone to the edge. Super popular, and they became somewhat of a psychedelic band. And yes, they helped usher in progressive rock, along with a few other bands. Everyone mourned him when he died. He is buried in Paris, same cemetery as composer Frederick Chopin and Oscar Wild and artist Claud Monet…as he should be!
Patrick has some decent vocals man. He needs to take lessons and join a band, even just for the fun of it. I'm a former pro musician and studied music at Berklee.
Wow, great reaction guys. Brings back memories of driving around late at night in the back of a friend's van, smoking doobs and listening to When the Music's Over and the rest of Strange Days. I also got to see them live before Morrison started acting really crazy and getting arrested. I've seen many of the great classic groups - Led Zeppelin, Cream, Hendrix, Stones, Supertramp, Pink Floyd, The Who, etc. And as much as I Ioved all of those concerts, there was something electrifying about The Doors that I never felt with any other band.
Some artist act like they’re “crazy” or “out there “. In my opinion, it wasn’t an act with Jim Morrison. Came through in the music. Awesome, original band. One mission, blow your mind.
"The music is life". When it's over turn out the light, the music is your special friend until the end. "Before I sink into the big sleep (death) I want to hear the scream of the butterfly (music)".
Excellent reaction, is what happens when you listen to bands as magical as The Doors, Pink Floyd or Deep Purple. Greetings from Peru guys, you really enjoy Rock.
I forgot about this band. Unique sound. Guitarist is Robbie Krieger - way underrated. Only plays with his fingers - no pick. His solo is what people call "free jazz".
And he used a broken bottle neck as a slide... Jim Morrison loved Bobby's slide work so much he used to pester Bobby, trying to get him to use it ALL the time.
For your info, The Doors were not underrated in their time....🌳 I personally fell in love with Jim's voice and their music 🎵 the first time I heard Waiting for the Sun that a neighbor gave me. I was 13... They exploded on the rock scene the day Break on through was heard on the radio...now known as the best 1st album of All Time.... Definitely NOT underrated... I could tell many stories related to the Doors...🎸 his tomb in Paris, is the most visited place in Père Lachaise cemetery...
I remember I was a little boy when I first heard The Doors music. I was transfixed. Later in life I was even more astounded to learn that these guys were in their mid twenties. Where does this come from? It stands the test of time. Extraordinary.
Love your reaction to the Doors. They are one of my favorite bands of all time. I just can't get enough of them. They were unique. To hear this live at the Whisky A GOGO would have been an experience. My older brother turned me on to bands like the Doors, Led Zeppelin, Janis Joplin etc... and I am so glad he did. Keep reacting, love you guys.
LOL SO GLAD you guys enjoyed it !! Well done. I'm finding more and more better 'reaction' channels, where the hosts do NOT stop and start the song !!! And yours is one of them. I love how you guys slowly got quieter and quieter as the song progressed, getting right into it!
I love The Doors❤️ when I used to listen to them headphones on what a experience!! Great reactions guys, hope you both are doing great it looks you are!!
If you like this one,you gotta react to "Celebration of the Lizard", if you wanna really take a trip with the Doors, it is a real mind blower. Anyone else agree with me.????????
The Doors take us to another dimension of time space. Its like Jim is talking 2 us from the others side. Feels like the lyrics were written with intent of reaching us from beyond.
Thank you for playing "When The music Over" I first heard the song way back when. It's a timeless song that still holds up to this very day. Another song I suggest is "Peace Frog" . I know you will enjoy the song
One of the best songs. And for sure one of the best reactions. Amazing to enjoy this with you guys. So beautiful to see people still discovering their greatness
I was 16 when the Doors first album came out in 1967. I have been listening to their music and reading Morrison's poetry since. I am still waiting to Grok in fullness.
Ray Manzarek was a classically trained keyboardist, not your typical rock background. And it was always a thrill to hear these four guys just jam together. MAGIC!
It’s beyond drugs. It’s visceral raw power. It’s why so many in nam, magnated to this band. It was the only thing that made sense. And most of those guy were in tight situations where they couldn’t be high.... morrison used drugs, but it’s overblown hype wise. He was more a boozer anyway... point is, this is just raw potent power. One doesn’t need to be high to thourougly enjoy this. In fact it’s vigoraying to get power like this from a song and not have to seek temporary fleeting ways to rearrange your col Train.
@@kelvinkloud literally there are ways to get a euphoric high from music. One who eats a healthy diet and gets plenty of sleep(just overall lives a good lifestyle) will be able to produce healthy dopamine rushes. It’s the drugs that screw up your brain. And people think they need drugs to enhance their listening experience. That’s flat out wrong lol
Well, these boys really have good taste. On the one hand, watching two guys from Georgia listening and reacting to When the Music's Over is almost like a set up for a Saturday Night Live routine (see 9:10). On the other hand, its great to see younger people appreciating this music as When the Music's Over is one of the greatest songs in the history of rock, psychedelic, popular music or whatever. I think people will be rocking Doors music 100 years from now and beyond. Great to see things I listened to 50 years ago stand the test of time. Rock on gentlemen. Best from the USA.
This is not a song, this is a mind-blowing experience.
100%

I had a long-drawn-out comment on this song. But you said it in just a few words, I love your comment. This is an experience a journey actually.
@@davidmazon7516 I think that JM considered himself more of a poet than a Rock star. This piece is more like a poem that he speak sings, for the most part.

@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 We were a Cleveland band named "Revelation".
I lived then, saw the Doors in 68, we loved all you cover bands who played Doors music, I still tip bands who rock them! Thanks Maan!
The keyboardist, RAY MANZAREK (R.I.P.), deserves a mention. He's the one who started THE DOORS with JIM MORRISON.
This is arguably their best song.

Epic!!! The Soft Parade next please bros! Thank you you're the best.
I agree
yes!
Nope Strange days Celebration of the Lizard !!! No wimpy stuff
Probably their greatest song. I am 78 now and was a Doors fan from the first time I heard this on a car radio in 1967. I saw them three times and the best was the May 1970 show in Detroit. I still listen to their music a lot.
People used to rush the stage during the climax of this song.. Morrison once complained that it was always dudes that rushed the stage and never any girls..
😏 girls have more sense...
That was new york. Cause the only people who would rush the stage were guys. Also I love new york joints. You can pick your teeth with them.
Caught their wave in 1967 , been riding it ever since .
Jim was a genius with an IQ of 149 . Besides being the lizard king ofcourse.
Loved the reaction .
Persian Night babe - See the Light babe - SAVE US - Jesus -SAVE US ... possibly the best and most passionately sung lyrics ever-written by Morrison
a misonomer about morrison was that he was an atheist or anti God.... he was anti phoney spirit. anti controlled. morrison saw the modern organized spirtual scene as suffoicated and political.... he want a resurgence of passionate spirits. hes yearning for Christs pure vision. the one against the empire of rome. pure tap root spirit to Light. the rose in the desert.... hes basically warning us we are so screwed and controlled that we need the pure light.

It's because all wimpy top forty reactors do do long songs
I advise listening to their complete catalog. You'll never be the same. I also suggest The Cream,Hendrix and Zappa, it'll reach you.
One of many masterpieces they created. They brought the psychedelic unlike any other group.
YOU BROS ARE GOOD YOU DONT TALK TO MUCH YOU GOT GOOD VIBES ON SONGS
These guys are of genius
That was part of the beauty of the late 60's early 70's. We had such a plethora of music styles to enjoy due the experimental vibe of the times.
One of the best songs ever! Easily in my top 3 favorite songs in the history of music.
The Doors music are masterpieces that hang in the museum in my heart and mind.

The most unique band of all time
A great biography on Jim Morrison is "No One Here Gets Out Alive". A must read.

LOL SO GLAD you guys enjoyed it !! Well done. I'm finding more and more better 'reaction' channels, where the hosts do NOT stop and start the song !!! And yours is one of them. I love how you guys slowly got quieter and quieter as the song progressed, getting right into it!
YEAH!!! This is a great song!!
Off stage Jim Morrison was a gentle quiet guy but when on stage he went wild, grew up loving The Doors & had a crush on Morrison lol
he he, ‘gentle quiet guy’, in interviews perhaps yeah, go read Krieger’s book man
I love The Doors❤️ when I used to listen to them headphones on what a experience!! Great reactions guys, hope you both are doing great it looks you are!!
Great great great song. I love watching people enjoying the music I love and enjoying and understanding it the way I do. Appreciation of talent
We liked unique bands in those days. Every group was different. Jim has the most unique voice doesn’t he?
Happy Friday guys! Hope Georgia is treating you well.
Heart, brain, and soul - you got it man! Well said
If you like this one,you gotta react to "Celebration of the Lizard", if you wanna really take a trip with the Doors, it is a real mind blower. Anyone else agree with me.????????
It’s not as taunt as this. Some great lines and moments, but it’s not the crucible of energy this is.
And "Soft Parade"
Absolutely too many wimp requesters
@@kelvinkloud yes it is
@@johnjarvis2168 nope
The doors is so amazing,top three band of all time to me,and morrison was a freaking good front man
The Doors were the Kings of Acid Rock.
Loved your reaction to the keyboard solo at 10:20. Just laughing that it keeps getting better-I still get that.
The Doors take us to another dimension of time space.
Its like Jim is talking 2 us from the others side.
Feels like the lyrics were written with intent of reaching us from beyond.
Thank you for playing "When The music Over" I first heard the song way back when. It's a timeless song that still holds up to this very day. Another song I suggest is "Peace Frog" . I know you will enjoy the song
One of the best songs. And for sure one of the best reactions. Amazing to enjoy this with you guys. So beautiful to see people still discovering their greatness
I was 16 when the Doors first album came out in 1967. I have been listening to their music and reading Morrison's poetry since.
I am still waiting to Grok in fullness.
Grok❤
Ray Manzarek was a classically trained keyboardist, not your typical rock background. And it was always a thrill to hear these four guys just jam together. MAGIC!
The Doors - The Soft Parade
The epitome of “stoner”, psychedelic rock.....I get a contact high just hearing that sound....
It’s beyond drugs. It’s visceral raw power. It’s why so many in nam, magnated to this band. It was the only thing that made sense. And most of those guy were in tight situations where they couldn’t be high.... morrison used drugs, but it’s overblown hype wise. He was more a boozer anyway... point is, this is just raw potent power. One doesn’t need to be high to thourougly enjoy this. In fact it’s vigoraying to get power like this from a song and not have to seek temporary fleeting ways to rearrange your col Train.
@@kelvinkloud literally there are ways to get a euphoric high from music. One who eats a healthy diet and gets plenty of sleep(just overall lives a good lifestyle) will be able to produce healthy dopamine rushes. It’s the drugs that screw up your brain. And people think they need drugs to enhance their listening experience. That’s flat out wrong lol
Well, these boys really have good taste. On the one hand, watching two guys from Georgia listening and reacting to When the Music's Over is almost like a set up for a Saturday Night Live routine (see 9:10). On the other hand, its great to see younger people appreciating this music as When the Music's Over is one of the greatest songs in the history of rock, psychedelic, popular music or whatever. I think people will be rocking Doors music 100 years from now and beyond. Great to see things I listened to 50 years ago stand the test of time. Rock on gentlemen. Best from the USA.
