Gotta appreciate that these two aren’t sticking to the most well known songs! I always loved this one.
Yes and no. They've spent way too much time on mediocre 1970s material and haven't even begun to dig into some of the most important rock movements.
One of my favorites.
@@johngillespie3409 If it’s a CZcams stream, then I understand why. CZcams can prevent them from even profiting from the collected super-chats if it has an issue with something that was played. So I can’t really blame them for playing it safe if they’re not overly familiar with a band. I imagine it makes doing genuinely authentic “first time” reactions difficult.
This is my favorite Doors song❤
The line "Blood in the streets in the town of New Haven" is a reference to his onstage arrest on December 9, 1967, during a live performance in New Haven Arena.
"Indians scattered on dawn's highway bleeding", which describes a highway accident that occurred when he was young. Morrison reportedly witnessed dead Native Americans while his family was crossing a desert by road in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Morrison was also referring to the 1968 Democratic National Convention protests with the lyric "Blood in the street/ The town of Chicago".
This ^
Morrison believed that the souls of those native peoples possessed him at that time which is what made him insane... "ghosts crowd a young child's fragile eggshell mind."
@@bearhall4919 Insane?
Jim also said that when he witnessed that horrible accident with Native American Indians laying dead on dawns highway bleeding, that one of the young Indians that had died, he felt "his soul enter" into Jim's soul.
@@Rhiannon011 Jim was pretty stoned on peyote and shrooms when he said that though..... I saw the movie too.
"Spanish Caravan" by the Doors. It's just shy of 3 minutes of bliss
Yup.
I always thought Spanish Caravan should have had at least one more verse, it's to short.
The second half of "Peace Frog" is the song is "Blue Sunday." They are usually played together. The song is partly based on Jim's poem "Abortion Stories," hence the blood.
I wasn't even thinking about it and Blue Sunday started going in my head.
I heard about that and also about the bloodshed of that era. Riots, Vietnam War, and the 1968 Chicago Democratic Covention
@@frogsterjonesiii6482 Yes I always heard that it was about the 1968 Chicago Democratic Convention where the riot police went nuts smashing in kids heads. I remember seeing photos of the out of control violence. It was not pretty. I will add though that I don't think riots are a way to solve anything and have no problem with police enforcing laws if they do it in a responsible way.
Someone replied to my comment and I saw it in my email but not here. They seemed quite upset. I'm not trying to promote some type of war/bloodshed narrative. However in the lyrics it appears he may be conveying that. Abortion? Sure. I heard Robbie Krieger mention that in an interview. I haven't read or heard any comment made on this by Morrison. But I think he was talking of more than just abortion. Just my opinion. No need to take my head off. I'm aborting this conversation.
@@frogsterjonesiii6482 I have always thought it was inspired by the 1968 Democratic Convention. I don't remember where/how I came to believe this. It's been such a long time ago. The Doors were before my time, but I was really into them 20yrs ago.
Densmore and Krieger are severely underrated musicians. Love this song. And you 2. 🙂
Robbie certainly get appreciation but densmore gets forgot about and his drumming is great
A Vietnam Vet turned me on to the doors. He played every album they made. He was right it's poetry with music mixed in.
The songs "Waiting for the Sun" (which oddly is NOT on the album of the same name), "Crystal Ship" and "Queen of The Highway" are all really great deep tracks of theirs.
'The Crystal Ship' has always been a personal favourite of mine.
Yes, this track flows into another, a special band are the doors
Great Doors tune, groovy and funky is accurate. Best when heard with Blue Sunday. Seems incomplete without it.
Doors "Backdoor Man" is funky, great tune!!!
The Doors are groovy, psychedelic and totally far out, man!!!🎵👌🎼🎶✌😎
💯%
I couldn't say it any better
It's very... Mike Meyers.
Yea baby!
right on
I love Robbie Kreiger's guitar solo in that song. It is so chill but completely killer 😁. Great song, fun reaction 👍
One of the tightest solos ever-so tasty!
It's a short but sweet badass lead. Check out Kreiger's concert from a couple years back. Saw it on PBS. Has a bunch of great guests on it. Lukas Nelson does a great jam with him.
This song and Spanish Caravan where he plays flamenco are good examples of how talented he was
Talk to folks in their 60's and 70's. They grew up listening to this music when it was new.
I was like Peace Frog? I don't remember this one. And then I looked and it's only an hour old. Excellent choice of classic Doors.
One of my favorite Doors songs, that and Soft Parade. Peace Frog started out as a instrumental, when came time to record for the album, they used different poems of Jim’s one called “Abortion Stories” and also about him getting arrested in New Haven, the violence in Chicago during 1968, the Indians part came from his childhood where he saw a car crash and the spirit of the dead Indian leapt into him.
Soft Parade one of my favorites along with Texas Radio and the big beat.
Soft Parade seems too intelligent for most of these so called Doors fans.
@@bobbyg7102 Soft Parade is one of my favorite songs by Jim and the doors. I have it memorized word for word and every time I play it (never tire of it) I sing along with the lyrics. I also love "Not to touch the earth". I have that song memorized in my head also. "Sun sun sun, burn burn burn, moon, moon, moon, I will get you soon, soon, soon".😎
@@Rhiannon011 when I first got into the Doors, I liked Not To Touch The Earth but prefer the live version that’s part of Celebration of the Lizard now.
Yes! The Soft Parade and The Changeling are my top two from them. Love The Doors!
My favorite Doors song...back in the old days, the radio stations would play this song followed with "Blue Sunday." On the album, those songs merge together...thus the abrupt end.
Peace Frog just jams. My favorite Doors song.
BLOOD in the streets from anti-war protests and the Vietnam War itself.
They are a Rock n Roll, first band to be called "punk" in the press!!! Punky, blues, rock, jazzy...they were very fluid...😎
"Indians scattered on dawns highway bleeding, ghosts crowd the young childs fragile eggshell mind" That is the car wreck Jim Morrison supposedly saw as a child in New Mexico...Nothing about Vietnam or the Crusades in that lyric....
You guys should react to…
The Doors - Five to One
🎸🤘
Riders on the Storm better
The absolute best Doors song 5 to 1 has my vote also.
When the Musics Over
Soft Parade
@@metalmark1214 Their best song is Riders, imo
Nah, just do all of them
Grew up in a town right next to New Haven. We had awesome tours come through back then….till they took down the old arena and coliseum….
Probably my favorite Doors tune! Dont get me wrong, I LOVE the Doors in total! This song just is such a great groove that even my wife (non-doors fan) likes. But I probably drove her nuts with them in high school when their greatest hits cassette was in the deck of my truck semi-permanantly until she complained... then it was Ride The Lightning for a year lol! At least I taught her to love AC/DC, Floyd and Metallica! Btw the Doors is a 60's band. Morrison died in 71, the year I was born. Literally listened to the Doors in the womb!
Guys, check out the Doors documentary "When Youre Strange" narrated by Johnny Depp, very cool and well done!!
This is off my favourite Doors record, Morrison Hotel, when i feel they were at their peak.
Love the deep cut here, one of my favorite Doors songs and very underrated. Ray Manzarek played the bass parts on a Fender Rhodes piano and also played the Vox Continental combo organ. Thanks for reacting 😀
While you are correct that Ray played the Fender Rhodes bass lines with his left hand in live performances, they often employed session bass players in the studio. Peace Frog is one of those where they used a bass player in the studio (Ray Neaopolitan I believe). Even on their first album thee are some songs with rather obvious electric (string) bass...Soul Kitchen, for example (Larry Knechtel) Still, it is remarkable how Manzarek could play those complex organ riffs/tempos while holding down a steady bass line with this left hand. People will argue that all piano/keyboard players often hold down a bass line/stride with the left hand, it is another thing entirely to do it like Ray did!!!
Ray only played bass keys in concert. Most of their studio tracks had actual session bassists playing real bass.
@@michaelesgro9506 I thought I heard a bass line, but then I was like, wait a minute I didn't think they used bass. Studio session player makes sense.
@@brettkenschaft4239 Yes, lol, trust your ears. The Rhodes is great, but to me there is a distinct sound difference with bass keyboard being a bit more clipped sounding, an actual bass slightly more resonant. Obviously digital synthesizers have come a long way and it can be more difficult to discern in modern times.
The Doors auditioned many prospective bass players to add to the band line up, but could not seem to find anyone that could add, compliment their unique synergy, chemistry. In fact, there exists a VERY early demo recording of the nascent nucleus of the band when it was still comprised of Ray's brothers, Jim and Rick (Rick and the Ravens) They had a girl bass player who was also playing full time for some lounge act! She did not last long. That demo has Moonlight Drive and a few other songs that the Doors would put on later albums. It is interesting to hear Jim sing on that as he had never done a thing in music whatsoever just a few months prior (other than a few piano lessons as a young child!)
Awesome Doors song. Thanks for playing something that is not popular. One of my favorites. Moonlight drive is also worth a listen.
yes to moonlight drive! Let's swim to the moon!
@@mil2k11 “Let’s climb through the tide”
Indian scattered on dawns highway is reference to an accident that Jim witnessed when he was a child. Indians died in front of him and he said one of their souls passed into his body
Fun song. Still waiting for Riders on the Storm.
It does go into the next song. Blue Sunday. It’s a totally different feel.
Definitely a commentary on the anti-Vietnam War riots, like the ones in 1968 Democratic Convention riots in Chicago. The verse about Indians dying on the highway was a childhood memory of Morrison as his family drove past a car wreck with native American victims, that stuck in his mind.
"Peace Frog" features lines inspired by true events surrounding the band's frontman Morrison. The line "Blood in the streets in the town of New Haven" is a reference to his onstage arrest on December 9, 1967, during a live performance in New Haven Arena in Connecticut.
Not that it means anything, but I was born 8 days after this incident about 15 miles from New Haven. Seen many shows at the New Haven Coliseum over the years. So I've always knew what the "Blood on the streets in the town of New Haven" was about
The rest of this I never knew about.
After the guitar solo, the song enters a spoken word verse with the lines "Indians scattered on dawn's highway bleeding", which describes a highway accident that occurred when he was young. Morrison reportedly witnessed dead Native Americans while his family was crossing a desert by road in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He said, "That was the first time I tasted fear. I musta' been about four." Morrison was also referring to the 1968 Democratic National Convention protests with the lyric "Blood in the street/ The town of Chicago"
Nice. My first concert was at the New Haven Coliseum. Molly Hatchet/Outlaws I think? Or maybe that was the Springfield Civic Center? At any rate, great times and great memories!
@@bullseye8509 I have many memories of seeing shows at the New Haven Coliseum, and one very vague memory of a 2 liter bottle made up of half and half, half Sprite, half Vodka and me finally coming out of my drunken haze to catch headliner AC/DC hit the stage.
@@BlackRoseImmortal Yes that memory sounds familiar. I grew up just outside of Hartford so most of my time at concerts was spent at the Hartford Civic Center (post collapse) or the Springfield Civic Center but I did make it down to New Haven once or twice. Good times. I moved from CT after HS graduation, but still make it back now and then to visit family.
I also live close to New Haven I miss the cola
All of this and more is revealed on "The Poetry of Jim Morrison with music by The Doors". Absolutely PHENOMENAL album!
czcams.com/video/eGhlnyT5tg8/video.html&
Morrison tells the story about the dead Indians, supposedly an actual event from his childhood
-------------------------------
"Me and my mother and father -
And a grandmother and a grandfather -
Were driving through the desert
At dawn, and a truck load of Indian workers
Had either hit another car, or just -
I don't know what happened -
But there were Indians scattered
All over the highway, bleeding to death
So the car pulls up and stops
That was the first time I tasted fear
I must've been about four -
Like a child is like a flower
His head is just floating in the breeze, man
The reaction I get now thinking about it
Looking back - is that the souls
Or the ghosts, of those dead Indians
Maybe one or two of them
Were just running around freaking out
And just leaped into my soul"
The Doors were truly genre fluid!
I believe people are born either male or female..... I don't believe in all this genre fluid nonsense!!!
@@JuandeFucaU 😂
So glad you guys reacted to Peace Frog, one if my favourite Doors song. Amazing to think such horrible events inspired such a great song.
I once had a radio DJ make me sing a verse of this song live in order to get him to play it as a request. I told him I don't sing I play bass. He said to sing it anyway. I did and he told me to stick with the bass. LOL Rock on!!
Hard to stop short of "Blue Sunday"...but then again, Morrison Hotel is a true album experience.
Try "Celebration Of The Lizard" from a live set. Pretty sure even if you can't comprehend it you'll appreciate the cojones it took to perform it.
You should probably listen to more of their songs before listening to Celebration of the Lizard.
@@peacepupppy
Why? They've hit "Roadhouse Blues," "LA Woman," "Light My Fire," "Love Her Madly" and several others.
I think they did "The End," too. They've studied Jim enough to expect something...else...is possible.
Me personally? I can't think of any good reason for a reaction channel to steer away from something so certain to be provocative.
I guess I didn't realize all that they have reacted to. Did they react to Break on Through?
Sorry
@@peacepupppy
Your punishment is you have to make a drinking game out of Oliver Stone's "Doors" biopic, taking a shot every time someone overacts. That'll break you on through to the other side....
😉
The Soft Parade is an underappreciated gem of a track 👌
As a refugee from the Summer of Love I will also offer "groovy". I always picture driving up Topanga Canyon Blvd starting from Woodland Hills when I hear this.
Those keys and those harmonies. damn! Everything just plays off each other.
"FAR OUT"......... 4 black brothers with a white drummer created this ICONIC Masterpiece from the 60’s Psychedelic Era Trust me…. You do not want your life to end without hearing this song.
“TIME HAS COME TODAY“- The Chambers Brothers - Album Long version, then Live. PLEASE and Thank You
I think this song is the best the doors song, great reaction ✌🏾☺️
When I 1st heard it I said
Far out,heavy and solid!
Psychedelic electric folk rock.
One of their absolute best.
Lex I gotta say that is the perfect description of their sound FAR OUT! something if Jim was told what others thought of their sound would be the appropriate response u got that wild child spirit of ol mojo risin.
Awesome!!! One of my favorite doors song on my birthday,
“Groovy.” And it still works.
Lex spot on again! Funky, groovy and yes, far out. ✌
Peace Frog/Blue Sunday must go together
They WERE far out & still are. One of a kind.
this was actually more 60s than 70s
The funky guitar sound is iconic for late 60's into the 70's. It's produced with a "wah-wah" pedal, and was used in many genres. It's almost a cliché that it is the sound of 70's adult movies. Morrison Hotel is a MASTERPIECE album by these guys.
Perfect! The Doors are Poetry/Analogy. You get to think of what and how to feel about it. Everybody is an individual and it belongs to them.
Morrison Hotel, best Doors album and this is my favorite Doors song.
One of my favorite Doors songs. Thank you for this one!
The next doors song should be.....
Riders on the storm. A masterpiece.
Love this song!
Psychedelic and funky is how I would describe it
Psychedelic rock with some blues and some funk.
Need to check out their cover of "Back Door Man" and /or "When The Music's Over" (Live at the Hollywood Bowl)
The WASP ( Texas Radio)
Sweet had my feet tapping crikey awesone band tube everything
"so how would you describe this sound"
Brad and Lex, there is only one way to describe it...The Doors
Rock on Brad & Lex
Hmm When the musics over, Crystal Ship, Soul Kitchen, Roadhouse Blues
I love these two lol
"Far Out" is perfect
Yup--she’s right, it flows right into the next song, a very slow song named “blue sunday”...big, sudden tempo change at the end
The timeless word to describe so much of this music is grooooooooooovy, baby!
groovy, freaky, farout and funky
She’s a rocker look at her groovin 🎸🎵💪🙏dope video!
You guys ever want to know what a bad acid trip feels like, listen to their song "Not To Touch The Earth"
Hey beau people do us a favour. Here in Oz a much loved and cherished singer passed 2 days ago. The band he fronted are called The Saints. Do play a song. A good start would be a a song called Ghost Ships. Love love love what you both are doing out there. 💙💙
Great song!
Waiting for the Sun needs to be heard.
Always a favourite groove.
It's about the social unrest in late 60's
I call it violence

Your music mirrors your mind
You have in the 70's right on, far out, outta sight, you dig, cool baby, and, of course, groovy
I grew up listening to doors music they are cool
One of my favorite Doors songs.
Yay 😍 my suggestion made it 😊 such a fun song, one of my absolute favourite Doors songs! 😄
Edit - song is about abortion. Some old gf of Jim's had to go get one, hence all the blood (the part about blood running down the legs of the city is the more obvious part). At first I thought it was about violence, too.
Right on, man. Outta sight!
The lyrics paint the bloody truth of Vietnam and is the product of some poems written by Jim Morrison. He was a poet, a front man, and spent a lot of time on the reservations exploring his mind with Medicine Men and medicine (aka: Peyote).
Listen to the Album. “American Prayer”. Peace Frog was pretty mainstream growing up in the 70s and 80s. And that is a church organ you’re hearing.
I'm from Buffalo New York I seen a band called Moonlight Drive I requested this song did a great job there's two bands one on the east coast one on the West Coast
This song brings me back to my bar days
One of my favorite Doors songs
Jim was a poet first, singer second. Dude had his a PERSONAL zip code.
Far out, heavy and solid
You describe it as freaking awesome 😂
Yes Lex -- "Far Out" for sure, 'Trippy' , maybe just a little bit.
Songs like this scared the hell out of the authorities in the 1960s. The cops went crazy at the Democratic convention in Chicago in 68. Unfortunately that resulted in Nixon getting elected. That brought on an illegal war in Cambodia and the illegal Watergate break in. At least Nixon had enough class to resign instead of completely tearing the country apart. Crazy times in the late 60s Funky psychedelia
Sounds eerily familiar
Man would Richard Nixon look good running the show now vs senile Joe. You bet he would! Jimmy Carter is happy too as he will no longer be viewed as the worst president in history now!
These 2 compliment each other perfectly. Brad is a thinker, and Lexi just feels it.
YESSSSSS!!!!! ✌️ 🐸 !!! Such a vibe such a great song!
Ray Manzarek, the band's keyboardist (and keyboard bassist at live gigs) hails from the town of Chicago ---25 minutes' walk, and about 8 minutes by bike, from where one of my grandparents grew up. I swing by his old block/house whenever I'm in the neighborhood.
Love the funk of the song. Funky was a term of the time (Grand Funk Railroad)
Completely agree!
One of the few song i have never skipped on spotify
My favorite Doors song. Such a funky riff.
Love the doors, Morrison Hotel is a great album.
The Doors were impeccable!
I totally forgot this song. Love the psychedelic switch up into the chorus.
