Jim Morrison was one of those special people who only came into this plane of existence once every 500 years or so. As a teen, I was completely mesmerized by his music and lyrics. Be sure to read the books about him; but especially, listen to his music. No need to over-intellectualize it. Just listen. RIP Jim.
one of the most magical moments in my life happened when my partner and myself were driving through Wales in the UK, we started to drive down into a valley and the weather changed, from sunny to very stormy... we drove through the valley, and as we reached the hill top on the other side, the song ended and the sun came back. Wales is a magical place already, but that moment will live in my soul forever.
As a locomotive engineer our anthem is The Sounds of Silence, because we quite literally listen to silence. no music allowed. So jealous that you can listen to music while driving your rig.
EXACTO... Es es el himno del chófer de carretera., Ya sea de noche o de dia es un deleite escuchar este himno y conducir.... ¡¡¡ WOOOOOOUUUU¡¡¡. POR SIEMPRE LAS PUERTAS. 🐺
This is... Looking for words, and pardon the crassness, "Fucking awesome" fits. (born in 1973, discovered Doors in the 90's when they were already vintage, fuck me.. )
When I was a kid, my Dad would play this on the tapedeck in the car and play the air piano on the dashboard...now I'm playing it just like he did with my son in the backseat. Rest in Paradise Dad, I'll never forget those memories.
First band I was in, summer of 1995. We'd hit a rough patch with our van. Our drummer, who drove the van and is still a master problem solver, took a screw out of a seat belt buckle and threaded it into a leaking brake line. Just enough to hope we could get to the next town. We were broke and hungry and we ended up on a 2 lane country road and started trying to find some music. AM radio like 2am, it was raining. Riders on the Storm was on and was clear as a bell.. we all looked at each other. Surreal moment man.
played this at my fathers funeral as well in Nov. 2016. his inner demands helped him complete suicide. miss my old man a lot. hope yore doing well botha

Yes, my friend. Always when i drived a car whith bunch of friends whith me, and when there was the rain, in my cassete drived radio, always this song. When i now listen this it take me trough space and time an i am again that rebbel young man as i use to be. Now i wonder, where i loose that all energy. Yes we grow old but this is a time mashine. In this momen i feel soooooo good, an then when i see that somebody else love this type of music i go wooooooooo. I love you all. And thank you for egsisting. ❤
Tim Jones im 16 this year, well i know riders on the storm from need for speed game but i realised the doors song is a masterpiece, my second favorite is touch me : )
This was my uncle's favourite song. They played it at his funeral last month. Song really hits hard every-time i hear it. Hope everybody enjoyed this song
Lost my father in 2012 from a car roll over, he was always a gypsy for the road, this was his favourite song and this was played at his funeral aswell, listening to this song always hits home base for me:)
The Doors Are One Of The Best Band Ever Existed In All History..Never Get Tired Of Their Music ..It Goes On Repeat!!!.I Love Doors..They Will Never Die..Their Unique Excellent Songs Are Forever ..RIP Best Ever Jim Morrison ,So Loved And Missed Never Forgotten ..Legends Live Forever 💕💯🔥👌💕
This is one of the most haunting, atmospheric and beautiful songs ever written. Believe this or not I first heard this on a jukebox in a pub whilst a thunderstorm was raging outside.
@Ardeth Bey Where did you obtain this information? The song was definitely written by the doors and performed first by them, although there have been a few cover versions since.
I first remember hearing The Doors in high school - 1989, & my friends & I spent some time in Venice - there's still something about their music that takes me to a place I couldn't have known since it existed before I did, but I've been there, and somehow I'm still always there if I really listen ❤
My brother and I remember this song with it's haunting tone. I still can see the riders in my imagination. What a pure innocent time that we will never see again!
pairs well with Fleetwood Mac - The Chain, and a little long song called Freebird x Lynyrd Skynyrd... but beware of Led Zeppelin's rabbit hole, or just enjoy all that you can across all genres.

I survived my teenage years listening to The Doors. Morrison was more than a singer and a poet, he somehow kept me company thru a very bad period in my life. RIP Lizard king
where has all the talent gone ???!!!!! This song is a true masterpiece !!!!! I listened to it on the radio when it was first released and it sounds better with age !!!!!!
@lpi3, so where are the current masterpieces that people 50 years from now will still remember ? I admit there are some good songs but it's forgotten in a year or two. Not like the old time classics at all.

I doubt you would like to get in a car with me come to think about it. What you think you see is not always the truth of a person. But thank you for caring 😁
Riding a motorcycle when I was younger, tailing friends in the rain, I had this gem of a track in my head. It had a profound effect on my mood and still brings back that memory with amazing clarity. I absolutely love this song. Thank you to the Doors
This song is the epitome of that dark noire cyberpunk bar vibe. 4 am with a hot black coffee under the thick cigarette smoke looming above. A lady in that red dress, oozing trouble, is staring at you from across the bar, where a regular jazz musician graces the air between the both of you. I wish more music did that too me. Its almost like remembering an old memory that new you never knew you could remember.
The vibe that this song brings is simply immaculate. Feels like chilling at a local cafe, on a rainy evening, while a band is performing jazz at the cafe
Listening to it on LSD makes it insaaaaanely intense. Life is the storm, unpredictable, and could be snatched away in an instant. The song conveys a sense of how fragile your mortality is and how brutal getting by in the world is, but it also has a stoic element to it. With the steady, courageous instrumental going the distance, it's extremely powerful and paints a hardcore picture of survival. Think about how many people died at or before your age, and how eventually you'll join them sooner or later. They rode on the storm till it swept them away. The "girl you gotta love your man" lyric is the realization that women are the gatekeepers of life, and they do have to love their man, seriously, because the entire world does quite literally depend on that. It's a fucking masterwork song depicting the human experience.
I wish everyone who left their comments here to be in perfect health and peace. because this music is intended to leave your body and mind in a high vibration. So vibrate in the light! Shift your consciousness to something more powerful that you want to have or be. Only then will you get there.
When I was 16 and hangout in P town I had a friend named Peter and his father use to kill to this song and berry them in the dunes.someone wrote a book about him. I think it was called in my garden. He was a good kid but the kids use to be so mean to him. They never let him forget it. Kids
2023. It's been 52 years this soul soothing gem was released. It calms me down yet cheers me up, gives me chills yet comforts me. Takes me to a far away place yet feels likes home. Thank you Jim, thank you Doors.
I had to go to the oral surgeon. They were going to give me nitrous gas. Dr asked me if I wanted to listen to music on headsets. I asked him if he had The Doors. He said " yes, have a nice trip." Then we both laughed. It was the only time I enjoyed being at the dentist!
Dolores, I hear you. As I tell my wife, the Doors are transcendent, no matter what plane of consciousness you are at. I was unable to visit Jim's grave last time I was in Paris, but I will be there next time I go. BTW, Hope your oral surgery went well.
the players are controlled, measured, in the groove, no showing off just simple chords and melody, simplicity is often very difficult to perform, coupled with the storm effects and haunting lyrics , this is a Masterpiece !!!!
Remember when your listen, they didn't have a bass guitar. Ray Manzarek played base on a keyboard with one hand while playing the organ with the other. Dude was a demigod.
If you weren't high when you began listening to this, the song itself made you high. Such a iconic piece. Oh, that organist was a master and made the band what it was.
RIP the two members of The Doors Jim Morrison (December 8, 1943 - July 3, 1971), aged 27 Ray Manzarek (February 12, 1939 - May 20, 2013), aged 74 You both will always be remembered as legends.
I still remember hearing this for the first time ever during my first week at university in a friend”s dorm room. I couldn’t believe how spooky, how evocative and how sweetly sinister it was. Even now, within seconds of hearing it, I am taken back to that dark, cosy, smoke-filled room and the head of that innocent, naive wide-eyed boy.
You have excellent taste in music! The last time I listened to the entire song was way back during my heavy drinking days. I'm now 15 years sober and today/tonight, I'm paying homage to Jim Morrison , the Lizard King. Just finished listening, 3 times back to back to back. I wanna listen to it again even before I send this. In one word, the GROOVE. Peace
Jim Morrison transformed into Rush Limbaugh as Jimi Hendrix Transformed into Morgan Freeman.. The sheep will never understand what publicly faking your death stands for ... The truth is always in plain sight..
My dad was best friends with Jim Morris we used to go bowling together when I was about five years old Jim used to live in Queens right across the street from the high school playground and I didn't even know it untill my dad was in a music video with them he also did the album cover with all four of them was looking down that was my dad's idea
Hell I wasn't even alive for around another 20 years after this song and this still makes me feel like that...older music to me just has a certain magic
Don't make me cry Jim! When I listen to this incredible music I can actually remember how it felt in those days - not remember "about" how it felt - but precisely remember the feeling of the time. We were so fortunate to live in those days.
Riders on the storm Riders on the storm Into this house we're born Into this world we're thrown Like a dog without a bone, an actor out on loan Riders on the storm There's a killer on the road His brain is squirming like a toad Take a long holiday Let your children play If you give this man a ride, sweet memory will die Killer on the road, yeah Girl, you gotta love your man Girl, you gotta love your man Take him by the hand Make him understand The world on you depends, our life will never end Gotta love your man, yeah Riders on the storm Riders on the storm Into this house we're born Into this world we're thrown Like a dog without a bone, an actor out on loan Riders on the storm Riders on the storm Riders on the storm Riders on the storm Riders on the storm Riders on the storm
1995 i was a 13 yr old punk rocker and raver kid. And loved this album. Got stuck in my buddy's car in the rain on acid listening to this album...was AMAZING..so i FEEL this song everytime...LA woman too
Vietnam 1969 I’m gonna be all along a river for a few days, I can’t say where exactly but let’s just say the heat is really getting to me. I miss you and the lights of Chicago,I’ll be home soon- Eric One of my grandfathers notes to my grandmother while serving in the Coast Guard in Vietnam.
As a child of the 60s. I grew up listening to the doors. I grew my hair like Jim. I dressed like Jim I spoke like jim. Now in 2024 listening to this song 32+ years sober. It triggers flash backs. Personally I love the fact that snoop dog. Did a version of this song in honor of Jim.
It's mid summer, 1978.. You're driving a 69 z/28 on a back road in central Texas. It's 3:30 am and nothing but static is coming from your radio. You slowly approach a storm in the distance. As you get closer to the Storm this song slowly fades in. You light a fat joint of Columbian gold.. The rest is history.
Can u imagine seeing him perform live..my God it would be sureal...in the flesh...his music and lyrics and body never die...just float around everywhere ❤

Listened to this sitting on a hotel balcony in Virginia Beach one night during a huge thunderstorm, overlooking the ocean. Military ship lights blinking out in the darkness on the horizon, lightning flashing off in the night, rain and wind swaying the trees on the empty beach, lights from the Chesapeake Bay Bridge blinking in the dark of the storm...so beautiful and dreamy, wish I could revisit that night.
+Luke Norman Heeey, someone with Norman in their name! Cool! Also, as I always say when I hear this amazing music being played; "The FUCKIN Doors..." It's sex to the ears, I can only imagine how intense it would be to listen to back in the 60s or early 70s while on untold types and amounts of various drugs. A different time, to be sure. In some ways, a better time.
+Joe P. I have had a few nights like that in my life. They don't happen very often. Its seems as though everything is right with the world, a somewhat mystical experience that is hard to describe but you nailed it. Thanks for sharing.
I used to listen to this when I was 63 and now I’m 17 this will forever be a classic

pairs well with Fleetwood Mac - The Chain, and a little long song called Freebird x Lynyrd Skynyrd...

Open roof
In 2000 year I do It : )
With 400 Mph in the city
The vibe that this song brings is simply immaculate. Feels like chilling at a local cafe, on a rainy evening, while a band is performing jazz at the cafe
And dont forget beer!
Listening to it on LSD makes it insaaaaanely intense. Life is the storm, unpredictable, and could be snatched away in an instant. The song conveys a sense of how fragile your mortality is and how brutal getting by in the world is, but it also has a stoic element to it. With the steady, courageous instrumental going the distance, it's extremely powerful and paints a hardcore picture of survival. Think about how many people died at or before your age, and how eventually you'll join them sooner or later. They rode on the storm till it swept them away. The "girl you gotta love your man" lyric is the realization that women are the gatekeepers of life, and they do have to love their man, seriously, because the entire world does quite literally depend on that. It's a fucking masterwork song depicting the human experience.
Very fucking indeed hahahaha

The Doors were one of those bands that if you heard one of their songs for the first time, you are automatically hooked and want to hear more ✌️☮️
That's true sir, grettings from Acapulco México
The same❤
É verdade 😊
When I was 16 and hangout in P town I had a friend named Peter and his father use to kill to this song and berry them in the dunes.someone wrote a book about him. I think it was called in my garden. He was a good kid but the kids use to be so mean to him. They never let him forget it. Kids
Absolutelly ❤🙏🏼
Sublime! Still blows my mind in the best way 😍🥰😊
I'm 67 years old and it has always been one of my favorites. Another great artist gone too soon.
2023. It's been 52 years this soul soothing gem was released. It calms me down yet cheers me up, gives me chills yet comforts me. Takes me to a far away place yet feels likes home. Thank you Jim, thank you Doors.
Like it was yesterday -
Perfectly said !!!👍👍👍
Same here..
Damn. Just saw his dad on TV. lol his dad told him he can't sing, quit the band and a get a real job. lol
I had to go to the oral surgeon. They were going to give me nitrous gas. Dr asked me if I wanted to listen to music on headsets. I asked him if he had The Doors. He said " yes, have a nice trip." Then we both laughed. It was the only time I enjoyed being at the dentist!
Dolores, I hear you.
As I tell my wife, the Doors are transcendent, no matter what plane of consciousness you are at. I was unable to visit Jim's grave last time I was in Paris, but I will be there next time I go. BTW, Hope your oral surgery went well.
That made me laugh..
An oral surgeon? I once saw a verbal surgeon,had to leave,he talked too much!!
@@richarddalton5191 Thank you, Rick.
your surgeon knows and probably tripped himself, just an academic speculation of course
the players are controlled, measured, in the groove, no showing off just simple chords and melody, simplicity is often very difficult to perform, coupled with the storm effects and haunting lyrics ,
this is a Masterpiece !!!!
Remember when your listen, they didn't have a bass guitar. Ray Manzarek played base on a keyboard with one hand while playing the organ with the other. Dude was a demigod.
100% agreed. Although they definitely hired a bass player for making records
Amen to that chief 👏👏👏👏👏
That's bad ass brother. I can't play like that, He did, Gedde Lee does, point in fact.
@Uncle Porkinz Jerry Scheff played bass for Riders On The Storm.
Holy shit! Give this guy the #1 like just looked this up and fuuuuck. Rey was the man!
I don’t need drugs. This song gives me a natural high

@@qotda I second that
Amen
This is a completely different song on weed, trust me
Crack’s on a whole new level though
If you weren't high when you began listening to this, the song itself made you high. Such a iconic piece. Oh, that organist was a master and made the band what it was.
Put drugs away brother❤️🤲🏼
@@JannahSWTcannabis is not a drug... it's a medicinal herb, put on this earth by God to heal many ailments.

Rest in peace, true poet.
RIP the two members of The Doors
Jim Morrison (December 8, 1943 - July 3, 1971), aged 27
Ray Manzarek (February 12, 1939 - May 20, 2013), aged 74
You both will always be remembered as legends.
Just wanted to say, I’d have another look at the maths for Jim Morrison (R.I.P.). Second one is right though.
Scratch what I said, apparently it is right… my bad

My life mood
I still remember hearing this for the first time ever during my first week at university in a friend”s dorm room. I couldn’t believe how spooky, how evocative and how sweetly sinister it was. Even now, within seconds of hearing it, I am taken back to that dark, cosy, smoke-filled room and the head of that innocent, naive wide-eyed boy.
U filled me with a ride of chills brother!

50 years since his passing and this tune sounds as good as ever. Genius nevers dies. ❤
You have excellent taste in music! The last time I listened to the entire song was way back during my heavy drinking days. I'm now 15 years sober and today/tonight, I'm paying homage to Jim Morrison , the Lizard King. Just finished listening, 3 times back to back to back. I wanna listen to it again even before I send this. In one word, the GROOVE. Peace

Jim Morrison transformed into Rush Limbaugh as Jimi Hendrix Transformed into Morgan Freeman.. The sheep will never understand what publicly faking your death stands for ... The truth is always in plain sight..
My dad was best friends with Jim Morris we used to go bowling together when I was about five years old Jim used to live in Queens right across the street from the high school playground and I didn't even know it untill my dad was in a music video with them he also did the album cover with all four of them was looking down that was my dad's idea
oh yeah me too 😆
Salve o rock! Anos passam e essa música é fixada na minha memória. 🤟

These kinds of songs make you feel alive again and take you back to the good old days ☺️
Yes.
Hell I wasn't even alive for around another 20 years after this song and this still makes me feel like that...older music to me just has a certain magic
Yeah...the days before this novid bs.... Folk gone and fked up..... So many fools today....
@@crystasorrow9593 it's called original creativity.... Seems to be a thing of the past. Kids need to wake up
Don't make me cry Jim! When I listen to this incredible music I can actually remember how it felt in those days - not remember "about" how it felt - but precisely remember the feeling of the time. We were so fortunate to live in those days.

A masterpiece , what a job by Ray Manzarek the groups pianist
Without a doubt one of the best songs written and recorded
This and The Soft Parade are transcendent

As a child of the 60s. I grew up listening to the doors. I grew my hair like Jim. I dressed like Jim I spoke like jim.
Now in 2024 listening to this song 32+ years sober. It triggers flash backs. Personally I love the fact that snoop dog. Did a version of this song in honor of Jim.
Best Key board solo I've ever heard.
The only one who can stand up against Manzarek is Jon Lord from Deep Purple. Both legends
Keith Emerson, rick wakeman, Richard wright are also great
"Layla" eric clapton
Love it.

It's mid summer, 1978..
You're driving a 69 z/28 on a back road in central Texas. It's 3:30 am and nothing but static is coming from your radio.
You slowly approach a storm in the distance.
As you get closer to the Storm this song slowly fades in.
You light a fat joint of Columbian gold..
The rest is history.

Listened to this sitting on a hotel balcony in Virginia Beach one night during a huge thunderstorm, overlooking the ocean. Military ship lights blinking out in the darkness on the horizon, lightning flashing off in the night, rain and wind swaying the trees on the empty beach, lights from the Chesapeake Bay Bridge blinking in the dark of the storm...so beautiful and dreamy, wish I could revisit that night.

woah
That sounds like the most relaxing thing of all of time
+Luke Norman
Heeey, someone with Norman in their name! Cool! Also, as I always say when I hear this amazing music being played; "The FUCKIN Doors..." It's sex to the ears, I can only imagine how intense it would be to listen to back in the 60s or early 70s while on untold types and amounts of various drugs. A different time, to be sure. In some ways, a better time.
Groovy!
+Joe P. I have had a few nights like that in my life. They don't happen very often. Its seems as though everything is right with the world, a somewhat mystical experience that is hard to describe but you nailed it. Thanks for sharing.
