Jim had one of the best, nastiest voices in all of rock n roll. 👍❤🤙

[@reannejarvis9464]

Oh yeah…and the best scream.🇦🇺🎸⚡️🤘🏿🤘🏼💋❤️

[@belljimette]

Yes he did! The Doors music base was the blues

[@SG-js2qn]

It's a blues tradition that when the husband leaves out the front door, the wife's lover sneaks in through the back door. Naturally, the blues singer sings from the position of being the back door man. I don't think anyone ever refers to themselves as the "front door man." lol

[@jackgilchrist]

That's a human tradition, they just sing about it a lot in the blues.

[@barrycohen311]

Zeppelin- Since I've Been Loving You- Do you remember, mama, when I knocked upon your door? I said you had the nerve to tell me You didn't want me no more, yeah I open my front door, hear my back door slam You know, I must have one of them new fangled New fangled back door man Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[@barrycohen311]

Allman Brothers- Black Hearted Woman- One of these days, I'm gonna catch you with your back door man One of these days, yeah, I'm gonna catch you with your back door man I'll be moving on down the road pretty baby, oh, to start all over again

[@fishhookism]

I thought the back door meant something else.

[@MrVicDog]

In the song the husband eats pork n beans but the back door man eats more chicken than any man ever seen!

[@OneThousandHomoDJs]

Classic! Written by Willie Dixon & recorded by the Wolf.

[@SeanP7195]

I knew it had to be a Blues tune. I was thinking Muddy Waters.

[@sergiodavila5269]

My fav line: “You men eat your dinner, eat your pork and beans I eat more chicken than any man ever seen” 😂😂😂

[@actuariallurker9650]

Of course "Eating Chicken" is when its the man who provides the woman "oral pleasure"

[@sergiodavila5269]

@@actuariallurker9650 exactly!!!!! To put that in plain English 🤪

[@spike1976]

"Not to Touch the Earth" The Doors, is an amazing song

[@2dashville]

Yes!

[@stevedahlberg8680]

To really understand this and plus it's just so damn good, you should really check out the original Howling Wolf version of this. It's fantastic. Along with a whole lot of his stuff.

[@vicprovost2561]

More Doors is always a good thing and yet another great song. Try their epic, When the Music's Over, another classic from this amazing band. Enjoy! 🎵🎹🎤🎸🎶

[@CLRoess]

Amen! Nobody reacts to that one. It’s a rock solid classic!!

[@rullmourn1142]

A Willie Dixon blues song from 1961, this has been covered by John Hammond Jr. and Howlin' Wolf, among others. The Doors decided to cover this after their guitarist Robby Krieger heard John Hammond Jr.'s version. A "back door man" is a guy who has relations with a woman while her husband has been out slaving away to provide for her. The guilty perpetrator if a wife was caught cheating was typically a tradesman caller like the ice man, or an insurance salesman. He would run out the back door to avoid detection when the husband entered through the front.

[@1dkappe]

Covered? This was written for Howlin Wolf and recorded in 1960. That’s the definitive cut.

[@ricardo950535]

In Latin America it was the milkman. Like in major cities here in the USA in 1940s, 1950s.

[@1dkappe]

@@cheechchong2898 “A cover song is a new recording of a previously released song.” The song was originally released in 1960 by Howlin’ Wolf, thus it was the original and not a “cover.” The doors recorded their cover in 1967.

[@1dkappe]

@@cheechchong2898 my apologies. The song was penned by Dixon in 1961 and released by Wolf in 1962 on the back of the single “Wang Dang Doodle.” Willie Dixon wrote lots of songs for Wolf. These and other of the facts are easily looked up. Shouting “fiddlesticks” won’t make a difference.

[@1dkappe]

@@cheechchong2898 troll.

[@mikefetterman6782]

The Backdoor man comes in the backdoor when the husband goes out the front door to work. It took on a different meaning later.

[@mikefetterman6782]

It just means a guy who sleeps with other guys women. It had nothing to do with the butt.

[@Fizzyphukoff]

This originally written by howlin wolf. His version gives a little more context.

[@barrycowan3540]

Written by Willie Dixon, recorded by the Wolf.

[@kencurtis2403]

The Doors are my favorite! You need to do Roadhouse Blues next if you like their blues sound!

[@scottpressman3631]

5 to1, Wild Child, and Not to Touch the Earth are amazing songs from The Doors

[@zunbake3]

Now you are listening to the good stuff! "The Blues is mean, the real thing"-Stephen Stills, Bluesman, Manassas

[@cynergy4]

I was turned onto The Doors in '68 when I was 12 and there has been no going back. Many of their songs are open to interpretation, hehe! Check out "When The Music's Over"

[@Boatzilla2]

You guys are cracking me up today. 😁Great reaction. Love you.❤️

[@AsiaandBJ]

😊 thank you

[@kevinhegwood615]

Y'all are so f'ing funny when you break down these songs, I love it.

[@JustTanya.]

I love The Doors. I swear I was a Jim Morrison groupie in another life. I'd suggest adding the movie "The Doors" on your movie channel. Val Kilmer played Jim Morrison and he was amazing in it. 😎👍

[@richardredick7515]

Asia and BJ: This version of the song will always be an enigms. When the sing was written by bluesman Willie Dixon, it was simply about a player who services many a married woman, and to avoid arousing suspicion enters/exits through the back door of the house. Jim Morrison, allegedly, tried to add another meaning to the song - about a man with a hunger and preference for the "back door." Did Morrison truly intend that? IDK. Willie Dixon believed that about Morrison, and he was not happy about it.

[@richardfordham931]

It's actually a cover of a blues tune by Willie Dixon.

[@johndishong2848]

Omg! You two are beautiful for each othert!!

[@surlechapeau]

Asia & BJ, you’ll love their “Touch Me”!!

[@coreywickramasekera9968]

Oliver Stone made an excellent BIOPIC ,THE DOORS, with Val Kilmer playing Jim, great movie, I highly recommend yall watching it. I went to see it on base in Norfolk when it 1st came out, with my best friend from National City, California.

[@leslie8743]

Jim Morrison was so fricking beautiful! I had his poster on my wall. ❤✌

[@darlahays2471]

I bought myself an original painting of Jim and one of Freddie Mercury. A grown up version of posters I had as a teenager.

[@johndbrandhorst4434]

One of my favorite line's from any song You men eat your dinner, eat your pork and beans I eat more chicken than any man ever seen.

[@dougj7295]

Willie Dixon wrote it - I saw Willie perform in the 70's in the Village - Willie was a big big boy - he's not sneaking or fitting thru any backdoor. I am going with option # 2.

[@Blue-qr7qe]

Rock and Roll !!! Mr mojo rising

[@annother3350]

He's creepin' in yo backdoor

[@bobbyiliev3615]

The storm this lady can sing. Asia come on

[@electricman69]

Jim Morrison was the lizard 👑 😅😅😅

[@deadreckoningplot]

Yes this is an old blues standard-also back door slam is a reference how the man comes home thru the front and hears the back door slam.

[@Jules-um4yy]

Wow I had forgotten the Doors did this song. So bluesy and Morrison's voice is perfect here - gruff, cool and sexy all mixed into one. Great reaction guys!

[@MIKEYC123]

The men don't know but the little girl understand😮😮😮 I love your reaction first time back door creeper I used to hear this song In Da Club the pole swinging club keep up the good work😅😅😅

[@danielmarone5757]

When I introduced this song to the doors. I asked them to leave a big? At the end of the lyrics.

[@ACab05050]

Also a double entendre. "The men don't know but the little girls understand" 🤣😁

[@thomashubbard5333]

I love the Doors.

[@xanajak]

The Doors are the best American band ever. Get in your car, roll the window down, turn the volume up, and go go go.

[@alteredaustin1]

LOL!!!!! No.

[@xanajak]

@@alteredaustin1 The Best. Yes.

[@alteredaustin1]

@@xanajak Sure. If you're deaf or haven't heard a single other band, ever.

[@xanajak]

@@alteredaustin1 There are only going to be X-number of American bands in the discussion for "Best" ever ... without making a list of 500 or 829. The Doors are in the discussion for the Best of the Best American bands ever, and there's no argument against that statement. You take the Top 10 American bands, EVER, and The Doors are in that group and of the Top 10, The Doors are certainly in the discussion for Best ever. Don't be a contrarian for the sake of it.

[@alteredaustin1]

"The Doors are in the discussion for the Best of the Best American bands ever..." is not the same as "The Doors are the best American band ever." You're still wrong, but nice attempt at a backpedal. LOL

[@marymargaretmoore9034]

Howlin' Wolf also did this song, originally written by Willie Dixon.

[@TomGorham]

I loved singing this in band in the 60s-70s.

[@juliettespain7994]

Go Go "O'S !!!!!!! ⚾️

[@annother3350]

Wikipedia "In Southern culture, the phrase "back-door man" refers to a man having an affair with a married woman, using the back door as an exit before the husband comes home."

[@dickcnormis1444]

Yes and you also use her back door as an entrance .

[@827dusty]

The old "Back door man" story. "The Mens don't know, but the little girls understand." Now those are some riske' lyrics.

[@Thumbbs]

SHE understands!1

[@brandonboucher7090]

Goes so effing hard.

[@paulnixon9861]

The blues influence that Ray Manzarek brought to the band......

[@dickcnormis1444]

Isn’t Kreiger more of the blues guy and Manzarek brought in the jazzy keyboard sounds

[@paulnixon9861]

@@dickcnormis1444 Could be, although I think Robbie was more flamenco influenced in his playing ? From what I recall reading, Ray had a decent sized record collection when the band started up, including blues, jazz, and other stuff including some Brecht / Weill scores (from which the Doors would cover "Alabama Song" from "The Rise and Fall of Mahagonny". And I guess being born and raised in Chicago must have exposed him to the blues. One of the best descriptions of the Doors that I've read was that they were a combination of a flamenco influenced guitarist, a blues influenced keyboard player, a jazz influenced drummer, and a poet. The mix of music on their albums is testament to that.

[@honoraryamerica5943]

Taken from Howlin' Wolf, IMO the most bluesy of all the bluesmen. Wolf probably took it from the archives as many bluesmen did. Doors version is louder, has a different riff and added keyboard, but the feel is the same.

[@butchplz916]

If you want to hear the absolute best primal original rock n roll SCREAM you should listen to Backdoor Man Absolutely Live! By The Doors

[@foookboiDatMan]

The live version from The Doors Absolutely Live hits different

[@seagullpoet]

Great comments !

[@seagullpoet]

I read this one book - before was famous - he was almost near homelessness. He would wander around at night. A friend once followed him….etc etc….

You did this on one of your lives, I think early spring, I remember because we were all laughing because you were doing a lot of songs with hidden meanings 😂😂

[@tomlang7612]

Love yer show, Guys! Give a listen to "Horse Latitudes". It's about pushing the horses overboard on a Spanish galleon during a bad storm at sea to lighten the load! Give it a shot!!

[@toddmoss749]

When Asia defined back door man and Bj's heart sank. I felt that!

[@jasonq111]

The thing people don’t understand about The Doors is that they were all great musicians (except Morrison). Now, did Jim have other talents? Ofc he did. He was a great writer and his lyrics are simply amazing. He’s a unique singer like Sinatra is unique. Almost a rock crooner…….plus, look at the guy. Women loved him. Robby Krieger is a classically trained guitarist. Add in Manzrek and Densmore and u have a real diverse musical cast. I always loved that they could sound jazzy, bluesy, rock n roll, etc. Amazing they were only together 5 years. 65’-70’ if I’m not mistaken.

[@stephaniewashburn7700]

One of the BEST Doors songs 🖤🖤🖤🖤

[@mnamhie]

My throat hurts just listening to Jim knock this one out.

[@johnnielson4341]

I don't know if I like watching you music reactions any more. It's no fun if we don't get to see Asia pull a blanket over her head at least once. :)

[@lindaaumiller7592]

He is a rock star.

[@Ritaholden1]

Good music about a bad boy.

[@mikem597]

The doors at their best. Great, down and dirty, blues cover. The band has the nasty rhythm going, and Jim's voice is forceful, raspy, and poinient. One of their most riveting cuts.

[@TheSmokey999]

The Doors are great !

[@mikem7052]

Jim Morrison / Rush Limbaugh funny how I would play Morrison and while listening to Rush driving to college classes and never realized they are/were the same individual till recently finding this fact out LOL!

[@luciolamonica]

at the back door there's a Howlin' Wolf!

[@zoso2850]

This song is smooth ASF

[@SeanP7195]

The music world tried for years to get Morrison and Hendrix to collaborate. Finally they did and it was a disaster lol. Hendrix was killing it, but kept having to tell a completely wasted Morrison which mic to use while Morrison yelled “I’m gonna F….you in the favorite”. Over and over again.

[@seanwoods4883]

I always thought the most interesting part of Morrison's life was his woman. She knew he was a Rock Star and she let him be that for us. she loved him the whole way through. she knew it wouldn't end happily ever after yet she still joined the ride and did her best to keep him going. God bless her soul

[@alteredaustin1]

She was a worthless junkie who probably killed him.

[@dsgp7835]

The late sixties early seventies we're so innocently WILD and Doors music was a big part of the soundtrack of that time.

[@billbrosey5909]

They were a different type of genre of music dubbed acid rock.

[@willblood7082]

I’m not sure why some reactors don’t watch videos that include the lyrics. This is not an original dog song it’s a cover: Wha, yeah C'mon, yeah, yeah, c'mon, yeah I am a, yeah, I'm a back door man I'm a back door man The men don't know, but the little girls understand Hey, all you people that tryin' to sleep I'm out to make it with my midnight dream, yeah 'Cause I'm a back door man The men don't know, but the little girls understand All right, yeah You men eat your dinner, eat your pork and beans I eat more chicken than any man ever seen, yeah, yeah I'm a back door man, wha The men don't know, but the little girls understand Well, I'm a back door man I'm a back door man Whoa, baby, I'm a back door man The men don't know, but the little girls understand

[@alteredaustin1]

Maybe because the lyrics videos are NEVER correct.

Have you two thought about watching The Doors (1991) movie? It stars Val Kilmer and as Jim Morrison and Melanie Griffith as Pamela, Jim's girlfriend. You might want to add it to your movie reactions. Val is so convincing as Jim that forget it's Val and think it's really Jim on screen.
