Reacting to When The Music's Over by The Doors: Mind-Blowing Groove and Surprising Flow Switches!

[@gregorystockton8139]

They were incredible live. I saw them about 50 times. This song captured their energy captured their energy the best.

[@jackasswhiskyandpintobeans9344]

Bullshit!

[@nickrice7535]

I can see being lost for words after hearing this song for the first time.

[@davescurry69]

The Doors were unlike any other band before or since. Totally unique. That particular song was also written well before the rest of the album including the title track, "Strange Days". Get into The Doors man. They're awesome.

[@sopala3952]

My fave group..like no other. Surprisingly Jim was a huge Elvis head.

[@remmymafia3889]

Risby? That might be the most iconic Doors song ever, and that is saying something. Morrison, (vocals) was out their with his lyrical poetry, the band is almost jazzy at times, and the explosion is off the charts.

[@reidbishop4371]

This is the epic song everyone needs to listen to before the lights turn out on us sometime in the not-too-distant future. Nice reaction, by the way.

[@Art-fl8jn]

Song is a masterpiece

[@nealamesbury7953]

[@nealamesbury7953]

That's it, huh ? Lol

[@markrussell3414]

👍🏻👍🏻 awesome band the doors 🎸🎸🎸🥁🎸🎤🇬🇧

[@steveullrich7737]

You just experienced one of the greatest bands from the 60s and early 70s. They were pioneers in creating unique psychedelic rock, blues rock acid rock style. The band got their name from an autobiographical book, ‘Doors of Perception’, by famous author Aldous Huxley who recounts in it his experiences with psychedelics and its mystical insights. Now that you've passed through the Doors' "Doors of Perception" courtesy of the Jim's poetry, and Ray, Bobby and John's musical talents you can travel there at will for the rest of your life. Please react to more of their music.

I liked this song 👏👏

[@brianfisher6165]

The Doors are a psychedelic rock band! 👌👌FYI, There are many (almost every) genres of music incorporated in Rock n' Roll music!!!👌👌✌✌😃😃

[@williamstlouis3368]

If you listen to their complete library, the Doors were more than a psychedelic band. They incorporated jazz, blues, rock and yes some psychedelia. This band can't be pigeonholed. Peace out.

[@billwilson2025]

Oh man; did you just run into one!

[@angelagraves865]

😃😃😃Hey, thanks, Risby!! Glad you liked it. I don't think there's a song by The Doors I don't like and this one's my fave. L.A. Woman; The End; Spanish Caravan; and Riders on the Storm are great songs by The Doors, too. There's also a movie about them with Val Kilmer playing Jim Morrison that's worth the watch. Have fun! 🤘

[@curtadams7406]

Great request Angela. The Doors appeared at the forefront of the Haight-Ashbury hippie era, put out six great albums in five short years, then they basically died with Morrison. Was lucky enough to see them perform live at Asbury Park, NJ in 1968, unfortunately my memories of that concert are "hazy." I never knew why, but there was an extended period in the early 1990s when their music became very popular again, you would hear it on the radio all the time. Maybe this was related to the Val Kilmer film you mentioned. Is your other "request" also a Doors song, or something else?

[@dubbatrubba1759]

That song’s like a bad acid trip. Good God, that guys voice!

[@debarghyaroy7103]

Darken the room. Dim red lights preferred. Get stoned or other. Then listen to enjoy more than 2x much.

[@diamondsmith892]

My parents used to listen to this stuff. I grew up listening to it.

[@sopala3952]

You should see Jim perform this Live

[@vinobody]

live versions are even more impressive

[@billhiggins1882]

When you die the musics over

[@remmymafia3889]

As you may have read, and of course heard here, Jim Morrison was a tortured soul, who's poetry and mind images, were conveyed in much of the Doors music, (certainly on this piece). This was their second album.('68) Both their first and this one, each featured one long composition, that revealed so much about Morrison, that the other songs on both albums didn't. 'The End' is on the first album, and gained a second life, when used in the movie 'Apocalypse Now' (1979), and "When The Music's Over", which you just listened to here. Morrison passed at 27 yrs old, from chronic alcohol abuse.

[@johnscott33]

Virtually all the Doors music and Jim's Lyrics are deeply Philosophical. It's an expression of Raw Human Nature pushed to extremes of thought and actions. An Exploration of possibilities and the consequences. It's very male centric, Women don't really think like this, seriously fucked up at times. Living in a world of the Broken and Fallen men, and understanding that you are one of them.

[@billwilson2025]

Hey Risby, you just ran into one! For that you won a free dig into their catalog card .Absolutely free!

[@williamosborne6866]

The title has NOTHING to do with the album content, other than being the name of the title track. It did, however, spawn five radio hits, and as iconic as their first, self-titled album is, this one really is generally considered more creative overall.

[@sean-ew2qv]

Like all great musical groups, they create detailed landscapes.

[@josephmaestas5915]

DID IT BLOW YOUR MIND I WISH YOU YOUNG COULD HAVE SEEN THE DOORS LIVE

[@KevinRCarr]

I believe that that's an electric keyboard bass, played with the left hand of the fellow that's playing the electric organ with his right hand.

[@sskyssscorpion8993]

Hey sorry I haven't seen your videos I recently started bettering myself and working out I will continue to work out but now watch you to when I am Done sorry I haven't seen your videoa

[@Markrealguy51]

Glad you dug the sound

[@williamkirby3552]

The album title has more in connection with one song, People Are Strange, than this one. Besides, album titles and covers don’t necessarily have to relate to any one song or songs.

[@roberormonde]

Dont try to understand Jimmorisn he said some people called himblackleather clad demon
