This is just another reminder that I don't mind getting old... for two reasons... Number 1 - My youth was not mis-spent... I can't think of a better musical era to have grown up in... and Number 2 - as alluded to in this tune(along with 'Riders On The Storm'), reminds us all that "The Future's Uncertain, and the End Is Always Near", but, I'm still here, despite over 6 decades of taking on life, HEAD ON, and surviving the worst it has YET, thrown at me. The music of my youth, in ALL it's many variations, still holds so much power over the shape of the society we now live in. The next time you young 'uns see an old man hobbling down the street, rather than feeling sorry and pitying his condition... stare in awe at the inspiration before you, and wish that you may someday be so blessed as to have made it through the fires of life, and emerged even tougher than you were in your, so called, "Prime".👍🏼✌🏼🇨🇦
@@OscarMartinez-pz9rg I always thought it didn't sound like an R name. I just looked up that Lonnie is in fact playing bass on this song too, not guitar so thats funny he's calling out bass player instead of guitar
John Sebastian (Lovin' Spoonful and "Welcome Back") plays the harp, uncredited (due to label conflicts). Sebastian's father was a world-class harmonica player -- classical genre.
No one in rock brought the command swag like Jim could when he was on his A game… fleeting career but wow he left his mark. Hats off to anyone who got to see him live.
You're ON it: there is a live/montage version of Roadhouse Blues and I REALLY recommend it. Jim was deeply thoughtful and incredibly well-spoken. He was also messed up and explosive. The video shows the "dangerousness" that was as much a part of him as his poetry.
Doors, pick a Door any Door? 🚪 🚪 🚪 you win "Roadhouse Blue's" Great Choice!😅 Now it's time to "Light My Fire" 🔥 next 🥺 please 🙏 Peace your 70 year old forever Young Hippie Gary 🕺💃 Great Reaction👍
Your reaction to his scat was hilarious. 😂 Reminded me of Eddie Murphy, "what's James talkin about?" At the end, Jim says "yeah right". I thought that myself, after he said all that! 😉 Peace
Awesome reaction 💙 say what...Jim talkin' in tongues there? 😂 One of my favorite albums, live, and heavy with his poetry is American Prayer..."Out here in the perimeter there are no stars, out here we is stoned immaculate"😮😂... 💙
Oh, the live version is even better. Jim really shone onstage. They all did, but Jim loved to improvise and would go on these vocal jaunts that could last a while. Their famously controversial song "The End" was his playground for improvisation; in the central spoken-word section, he would do word jazz, improvising poetry, get strange. He just really loved to perform, much more than he liked to record.
Everybody here watching you is imagine themselves at that bar with this incredible band performing...and there is a bungalow just around the corner you can still picture that part of that night with their parts all working right.😊
Love this song. My cousin played Bass on the original recording. The Late Great Lonnie Mack. He is buried in the same cemetery as my dad. I go to Lonnies every time i go there. My favorite by them is LA Woman. Enjoy this great song.
Excellent reaction this song kicks ass everyone jamming later my brother. ‘’ The future is uncertain and the end is always near ‘’ no truer words spoken.
BRING MORE THE DOORS MY MAAAN! Best rocknroll band ever man, they were the real deal, all about it, Morrison was so passionate and intense, WILD, on live he sounded just like the records and even better, there are a lot of songs i think you might like, Morrison said their European live show at the Roundhouse in London was the best they ever did, you can find it here by the name ''The Doors Are Open'' , there you can see Morrison WILDIN and in his fucking PRIME, wearing full leather clothes hahaha, he was something else
My late cousin told everyone that jim was her husband - she even told her husband! Lol - i miss her so much. Everytime we would talk i would hear them in the background. She moved out of state too early. A band that i grew up with would sing several of their songs and would bring the house down. They performed maybe 10 mins away from her old house.
Was my go-to 8:21 karaoke song after a few drinks. One night, I was accompanied by a Harmonica player. Once he heard the song, he joined in. I used to be about that life. One bar after the next. One party after the next. One to many, always with the intent of having acgood times, dancing, and singing with friends. But then it doesn't always work out as intended. Nonetheless, worth the experience, no matter how bizarre situations got. The Doors were one of my favorites. Songs: Strange Days, People are Strange, Hello I love you, Love me two times, Love her madly, L.A. Woman, and Crystal ship.
🌸 I've been in love with Jim Morrison forever and ever.... his intellect was amazing, he was a prolific writer & poet .... he pushed the boundaries on many many things and he was just a beautiful soul.
Love the enthusiasm in your reactions! Just a little blues song you may want to check out is Thank Me Someday by, at the time it was released, a 74 yr old Buddy Guy! It won’t let you down! Just some raw blues being played!
The Doors had a lot of different sounds. They used jazz, blues, psychedelic sounds, fun house, ethereal & just kicking ass rock songs. They have so many huge songs, have been used in so many movies & tv shows, they're truly iconic.
Yeah, I'm glad you had the lyrics pulled up too! For forty years I've been singing "passionate lady. give up your vows" and today I find out it's "ashen" lady?! 😆 ASHEN lady? I like my lyric better. It makes more sense. Maybe I'll stick with it. hahaha
Great call Lori, this track was the basis of so many bands careers in the early '90s, everyone "borrowed" it, e.g. The Charlatans. It's the touchstone for most of the "dancey baggy" music from that era and some of the musicians, to their credit, have admitted it.
Not their best song, but easily my favourite. The piano, the guitar, the HARMONICA. Very honky tonk blues. Great energy from Jim.... a drinking song for the ages.
John Popper is the best harmonica player I've ever heard personally in my limited musical knowledge, I strongly recommend everyone to watch Blues Traveler's Shoreline 1995 live performance of "But Anyway" its one of the best live performances Ive ever seen
Another great reaction Shon, always fun to watch man but listen if you love the harmonica you HAVE to check out Whammer Jammer by the J. Geils band-killer harmonica!
there arent many other bands quite as diverse in their content. they are in a league with the Beatles, Queen and maybe a couple others I cant recall now.
Just for fun, I searched the lyrics, it is Hilarious to see the various interpretations of the 'gobbledegook' portion of the song... not even gonna say what I THOUGHT I heard when I was young. lol.
I don't know if you've reacted to any 10 Years After or not, but the lead singer, Alvin Lee, has an amazing blues song where he collaborated with George Harrison of The Beatles and Traveling Wilburys. George does the first guitar solo on a slide and Alvin finishes up with a 2nd solo. Both have their guitars crying! The song is The Bluest Blue. Here's a link to the audio. th-cam.com/video/rB6OlJqV1rQ/w-d-xo.html&pp=ygUeYmx1ZXN0IGJsdWVzIGJ5IGFsdmluIGxlZSBsaXZl
Hi Shon. I watch your videos whenever you post them and I have identified a lot with your reactions. I notice that you react to old songs, but when you have some time, please react to the song "Diz pra mim", a song recorded more than ten years ago by the Brazilian band Malta. Big hug from Fernando. Peace.
and if I'm not mistaken they never really had a bass player....Ray handled the groove line and the keys at the same time. Laissez les bons temps rouler!
Get some freinds or family members to join you on some reactions!!! Introduce them to something you reacted to, that you like or have them join sporadically on some new reactions.
L.A. Woman is another great Doors tune!
Agreed! Some people write it off but I think it’s immaculate!
Imagine being a teenager at a house party…with this playing…trust me…my youth was epic. A+ reaction
I damn near had an 'acid flashback' just now. lol.
Same Here. ✌
@@BorealisNights 😂👍
I don’t have to imagine, now pass the bong and turn it up.
We did also. The record player was suspended from the ceiling with fishing line so the records wouldn't skip from the dancing..so much fun back then.
Thanks Shon, Hope you and yours have a wonderful Thanksgiving. God Bless. ❤

My absolute favorite Doors song!
Mine too
“Do it Robby do it”
❤❤❤
Actually "do it Lonie", Lonnie Mack was on this cut on lead guitar
@@OscarMartinez-pz9rg I always thought it didn't sound like an R name. I just looked up that Lonnie is in fact playing bass on this song too, not guitar so thats funny he's calling out bass player instead of guitar
I freaking love this groove. Please Peace Frog ☮️🐸 Jim an American poet is one of my favorite books. Great reaction and Peace out ☮️ ✌️ 🙏
John Sebastian (Lovin' Spoonful and "Welcome Back") plays the harp, uncredited (due to label conflicts). Sebastian's father was a world-class harmonica player -- classical genre.
i did not know harmonica was part of a classical ensemble.. you sure 'bout that?
Jim was such a strange and talented dude. He was a true poet.
Absolute fire 🔥 The Doors are THE GOAT of music 🎵🎶❤ Great reaction.Love to hear " Light my Fire" 🔥
No one in rock brought the command swag like Jim could when he was on his A game… fleeting career but wow he left his mark. Hats off to anyone who got to see him live.
Play List material Shon
💥 💯 💥
I love that relentless piano and harmonica!

there is a live version where morrison does the "nonsense words" section and just pulls it out until the audience goes nuts...
My two favs of The Doors are The End and L.A Woman
My late cousin told everyone that jim was her husband - she even told her husband! Lol - i miss her so much.
Everytime we would talk i would hear them in the background.
She moved out of state too early. A band that i grew up with would sing several of their songs and would bring the house down. They performed maybe 10 mins away from her old house.
L. A. Woman!!! Mr. Mojo Risin'
The Doors are one of the great band thank Shon

Definitely gota do L.A woman, also very blusey, great track
Jim had some pipes
Great band
Great reactions!
I was groovin' to this at 17 when it came out over at my bff's house. I didn't dare play it at home! 🤪
Doors live stuff is amazing! Wish i had a Concert Time Machine!!
🌸 there's even a little harmonic in there just for you!!!!😊
Check out their song "Peace Frog". Another upbeat song.
You’ll love the live track!!
My favorite Doors song is "The End". If you're ready for an epic, that one is amazing.
The Changeling!!!!
Your reaction is SPOT ON!
Next from the Doors, "Five to One'. Yet another sound from them, it's got a really hard beat & Jim's vocals are just killer!
Love the enthusiasm in your reactions! Just a little blues song you may want to check out is Thank Me Someday by, at the time it was released, a 74 yr old Buddy Guy! It won’t let you down! Just some raw blues being played!
Happy Thanksgiving Shon. Always enjoy your positivity and videos.

GREAT GREAT song!

Haha really I've been singing passionate too!!
that makes me feel better 😂@@trevorrichardson2200
I always thought it was 'Passion lady, give up your mouth'. I have a dirty mind. LOL
Peace Frog!!
Great call Lori, this track was the basis of so many bands careers in the early '90s, everyone "borrowed" it, e.g. The Charlatans. It's the touchstone for most of the "dancey baggy" music from that era and some of the musicians, to their credit, have admitted it.
You have a great personality for this! Your reactions are my favorite and I'm hooked on reaction videos
Not their best song, but easily my favourite. The piano, the guitar, the HARMONICA. Very honky tonk blues. Great energy from Jim.... a drinking song for the ages.
MY number band of all time. Jim = Mr Mo Jo Rising, the Lizard King
The Doors is one of my favorites. Jim passed in 71 and I was born in 71; go figure.
Blues and harmonica!👊
A beer for breakfast. Only Jim Morrison and the Doors would do this.
That's John Sebastian of "Love and Spoonful" playing harmonica.
Sorry haven't on this channel for a while, but when I saw the Doors....I'm here.
John Popper is the best harmonica player I've ever heard personally in my limited musical knowledge, I strongly recommend everyone to watch Blues Traveler's Shoreline 1995 live performance of "But Anyway" its one of the best live performances Ive ever seen
Yeah Riders On The Storm is a lot for a first time Doors listen. LA Woman and Light My Fire are good intro from here!

There's a killer harmonica on John Mayall's track Room to Move
Another great reaction Shon, always fun to watch man but listen if you love the harmonica you HAVE to check out Whammer Jammer by the J. Geils band-killer harmonica!
there arent many other bands quite as diverse in their content. they are in a league with the Beatles, Queen and maybe a couple others I cant recall now.
💯
John Sebastian of The Lovin' Spoonful is the man on the harmonica in this recording.
Do there People are strange. You dig it 😊
Just for fun, I searched the lyrics, it is Hilarious to see the various interpretations of the 'gobbledegook' portion of the song... not even gonna say what I THOUGHT I heard when I was young. lol.
Next Doors songs "Light My Fire" and "Love Me Two Times" ......... You won't be sorry!
