This song is a traditional folk song with many variations. This modern version was first done by Clarence Ashley in the mid 1930s. The Animals' version is the song is it's finest rendition by far. The superior vocals, the organ fills and rhythm mess perfectly. This came out in 1964 and I was eight years old. I had just started listening to pop music that year and this song blew me away. I heard it at least 200 times in my life and it still moves me. Every time. BTW, at 5:48 in your video, the guitar player starts to smile and it expands into a big sheepish grin. He had bumped his guitar neck on one of the prop pillars as he passed through and they had to go back and do another take. You can see him lift his guitar extra high when he passes through the opening on the second take.

Love Eric Burdon & The Animals. They were part of the British Invasion along with The Beatles, Rolling Stones & others. People are always shocked that Eric has such a different unique deeper voice. The Animals had a lot of great hits in the 60's such as "We Gotta Get Out Of This Place", "Baby Let Me Take You Home", "I'm Crying", "Boom Boom", "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood", "Bring It On Home to Me", "It's My Life", "Don't Bring Me Down", "See See Rider", "Monterey", & "Sky Pilot". Eric later joined the funk rock band "War" & they had a few hits "Spill the Wine" & "Tobacco Road".

Like others have said this was recorded in 1964, when the other hit song on the radio was "I want to hold your hand" "Oh pretty woman" and "I get around". The radio was mostly pop and surfer music when it was released. Many rock bands and metal bands trace their roots back to this one song. Without this one song at this right point in time music history would be totally different today. It is a sad song about a place that has all kind of bad vises going on and how his dad and the singer both got trapped in the joy of "sin" going on in the house of the rising sun.

It's a sad song, to me. Heard it when it came out in 1964. Liked it immediately. I didn't know at the time that it was an Appalachian miners' song that had been around for a long, long time. I read that it actually probably came from England before that. So the Animals' version is a cover. But a great one. I would guess their version is, by far, the best known. It's sad because, as the song says, the House of the Rising Sun was the "ruin" of many a poor boy. The lyrics also speak of going back to New Orleans to wear that ball and chain. To me, that means prison. When I was a kid you'd sometimes see "chain gangs" on the side of the road cutting weeds and gathering trash. They were prisoners, usually in striped uniforms (back then) and watched over by a guard with a shotgun on horseback. Sometimes they were all chained together, but sometimes they wore a heavy steel ball attached to the ankle by a chain, individually. Interestingly, in a way, is the fact that when I was young you'd hear (not often) a husband refer to his wife as "the old ball and chain". Not flattering at all. It was meant to symbolize him being tied down to her. Thanks for letting us watch and listen with you! God bless you!

It's a song with soul, of course the organ is fantastic, so is the guitar, the bass and the drums. What many people don't understand is how difficult it is to play so tight and in sync. It is absolutely world class. But what is completely unique is still his voice, some singers can't sing at all but get away with autotune today, but some can sing and are brilliant purely singing technically, others have the ability to convey very strong emotions with their voice, very few have the ability to both have a brilliant technical singing ability, at the same time they can convey such strong feelings. When it comes to the video, I also think it's brilliant. Might just be the best looking video from that era. It really wasn't easy to make videos back then, it was extremely expensive as well, so it's likely that this had to be done in one go.

For me it's this profound hitting of message and messenger. Of sound and lyrics and delivery. Of being in this moment with this person (played by Eric Burdon) and them relating this epic hard lesson tale of pain and living and trap. And their hyper awareness of being in that mess and of knowing what their world before was, and reaching out as they drown to call out warning. And all that also being within this madhouse mix of instruments and melody as they race madly to portray the manic madness that lies behind the words and their emotion. And that manic madness itself being its own established institution. This House Of The Rising. Totally stable, in the uniform and calmness of the performers and this looming and consuming predatory place of the lyrics.

Great song for arpeggio picking and a good combination of almost all the basic chords (Am C D E F). Rock was still young and strong back then. Another fine example of the British youth back then picking up on some obscure bit of American culture and giving it back to us with a little sauce on it.

The addiction is the "ball and chain" but I could be completely wrong, just seems to be that.

There are several urban legends about this "House." One claims it was a late 19th Century social club called the Rising Sun Hall, which was located along the riverfront on Cherokee Street in New Orleans. Another claims it was a brothel located on Esplanade Avenue in New Orleans' French Quarter from 1862 to 1874, whose Madam's name, Marianne LeSoleil Levant, means "rising sun" in French. Some historic evidence indicates that it was located on Conti Street in 1820s, while other evidence suggests the "House" was on Lake Pontchartrain, and was rebranded as the "Mechanic's Hotel" in summer of 1828.
