[Extraterrestrialize]

[pennylaneqq]

The man don't know, but the little girl...UNDERSTANDS!!!

[jimfliptx]

Finger-picking Robby Krieger... damn.

[MasssTR]

is he actually stoned on all those videos or is he getting lost in the music? or both?

[CarterMMD]

@MasssTR its a little thing called LSD my friend. As well as passion and love for making music.

[don10051]

These aren't the lyrics to "Back Door Man" This is John Lee Hooker's - "Crawlin' King Snake."

[Mobz0]

id let jim morrison fuck my wife, then use the front door if thats what he wanted

[ejjaya057]

artists these days lack this kind of intensity...!

man..i was born in the wrong decade =(

[Fuzzlike11]

[MrYoureAdouche]

Every woman in Europe was mysteriously impregnated after The Doors toured there.

[madiiisonnnsherreee]

I would have wild animal sex with him

[sartanko]

A cover of Howlin' Wolf? Well The Doors had some blues in their music I guess!

[spinkicker27]

boring.

[PurpleWaterVideos]

@spinkicker27 What the fuck is wrong with you? this is awesome the fact that they have real footage of the Doors performing in 1968 is awesome! Shows how big of a Doors fan you are if you don't appreciate this

[spinkicker27]

@PurpleWaterVideos sorry, I'm not haters. but I just can't feel this song.

[CXTXXLOVE]

He is a beautiful man.

[teawhy187]

that zombie shit he does at the beginning is fuccccking crazy.

Great improvisation !!!

[jesuscat29]

Mojo risin <3

[eevlwich]

jimbo…

[babamuna66]

Great intro, Robbie! Add in Jim's drugged-out moans and play at maximum volume; probably the ballsiest first 30 seconds of any rock video on Youtube.

[SkinnyBoi8]

wtf does he mean by saying hes the "back door man" lmao

[Easyandy100]

@SkinnyBoi8 The original lyrics meant that a back door man was a guy who would sneak through the back door to meet another mans woman.

[theunknowncove]

@SkinnyBoi8 Shamanism. He used his body as a door "channel" to break on through to the other side, allowing spirits to possess him and play music through him. :o

[TheAlanWaters]

There´s only one back door man!

[thedoors919]

Casanova approves of this song

[mileylevesque]

ffffuuuccckk mmmeeeee that was HOT

[damnheat2005]

Jonnny Lydon might have a point if he had a band as good as the doors behind him.

[Tubularm8]

0:21 I'm not sure but I think he says: "Suck my cock". At 0:35 :"Lick my fucking cock" lol

[TimeisaSquigglyLine]

the lizzardking!

[TheButtercupTube]

press 8 over and over again and Jim sounds like he's saying "oh chicken!" and humping the air. .

[MrAxelRisin]

[alexpopugaev]

Mister Mojo Rising is dead to stay alive

[helenlovespaul]

can you imagine life without LSD, we'd never have Jim without it

[coolguy00442]

I think at 0:21 Robbie was telling Jim, "I think the cops are getting pissed".

[prod1gy3000]

@coolguy00442

Although this was in England, the Doors never had any problems with police in Europe.

[Mylostsurf]

the "apostle" of rock . . . when the music over turn out the lights (JESUS SAVE US) . . .I'm gonna get my kicks before the whole shit-house goes up in flames. . .

[2HonestIam]

As usual too much genius goes hand in hand with NUTS!Shame,we could have heard a lot more of this awesome singer and songwriter.Coolest band ever.

[ka8isterimeno]

nobody can be higher than that!

[mmusicman11]

some serious drug consumption there....did he know what planet he was on?...poor guy was a mess....gone too early for sure....rip jim

[Arcezzu85]

I love the opening, especially 0:30 - 0:38. It just screams total confidence.

Simply beautiful, Morrison.

[Daniel13l]

[jaydubbayu]

[GliArtificeri]

jim is my god!!!

[MrStratoManu]

Algunos son indecorosos al no saber apreciar la magnitud de the doors, talvez yo no sea la ecepción, pero si se que lo traigo en el alma en el corazon y en el espiritu... por que, por una razon y es la de que esta musica me a marcado de por vida.

[zosopage7]

@MrStratoManu esta musica es atemporal como la de Led Zeppelin.. no son modas son arte y genialidad x eso perduraran en el tiempo como lo estan haciendo en este preciso instante...

[bamcis17]

How come I can't be Jim Morrison...

[amerikhastan16]

@bamcis17 because he died unfortunatly

[sbaker439]

love is little laugh/cackle c;

[maxxo]

Jimmy boy was pretty fucking high right there

[sabrinaqayum]

I would even lick the sweat off his face. He is THAT irresistable.

[canodog69]

He's a Backdoor Man, Hes a Crawling King Snake, he rules his din! ! Hes is the Lizard King and HE my friends can do FUCKING ANYTHING!! cause only the little girls understand. now crawl.

[4mydoors]

Nobody knows what kind of drugs he was doing when he died.Probably everything,but I truly think it didnt matter to him if he died then or now.He was just probably depressed.Miss him alot.

[sextasis]

I ♥ this way

[Karlitozkeretaro]

ke poca madre se oye no puedo imaginarmelo en lata definicion...............

[taylordavis1234567]

2:14 "You love me baby, I knew you would!" Classic

[JAMMJessica]

robby's looking him like , what the hell...

[TheHuMoCa]

Saw Robby play yesterday with James Cotton and it was freking amazing! As soon as I saw that SG in a stand I knew it was gonna be a good show

[26mistakes]

@TheHuMoCa that must 've been a blast.. discovered Cotton a couple days ago, him and Krieger, the idea alone puts a rise in my levi's..

[TheHuMoCa]

@26mistakes It was fantastic, truly a night I will remember forever

[liondoghound]

[jyac328]

The whole song is great but the last couple minutes of this song are amazing.

[neilembo55]

[langalangalanga]

This song is great, i'm happy because i can enjoy this with only 16 years...

[steelersrule79]

Climb all over me baby

Touch me

[Chippy215Boss]

Jim Morrison is my idol

[landolon]

green67blink66 knows what he talkin about. thats whats up!!

[MrFerdell]

Morrison was way out there in the beginning, way beyond anything music was dealing with then. A true artist, all he really wanted was to just be a poet writing in his garden..he hated the fame.

[pimpdaddywompa1]

kids, this is The Lizard King, and he can do anything.

[whisky2roxy]

Jim is the teacher, and we are the students

[RoonilWazlibLover]

The Doors - Sex, Satan, Psychedelia, and Sex, and Psychedelia, and FUCKIN ROCK.

The Beatles - Love, Pop, Rock N' Roll, Psychedelia, Perfectionism.

That's the difference.

[TheJimmy6984]

I have to disagree about how you compare the two bands. All of the beatles hits are happy pop/rock. But if you listen to their entire albums, not all of their songs are about love, they sing about death and do psychedelic rock. It's probably just different cultures. Either way, they are both bad ass!

[green67blink66]

everynight i pray for morrison to rise out of the grave with a sword and slay all the lil faggot who cant make music right. their are so many ppl out there that dont even know what music is and its fucked up.

I Love rock n roll like i love women and i hate all the mainstream music today like i hate hitler

[syntaxius]

yea yea the musicians all made fucking good music and jim was the leader and the soul of the band

[dapavin1]

me encanta este tema incredibol......

[jazzytds]

I think that there is no group that can remotely duplicate the sound or the authenticity of the Doors. Jimbo had his own mystical style that was seductive and yet soothing to the soul of the true romancer of music. He was a genre, and each member of the group was an asset to his creativity, they organized their delivery according to the master, the leader, the Lizard King...he could do anything.

[King6Caramel]

How bout yall head over to Howlin' Wolf''s Back Door Man. Not taking anything away from a great band like The Doors, but the Wolf and getting no love

[low72]

the doors had such a fucking cool and unique sound & style...it's addicting.

[ubau26]

gee he is extremely too high, i wonder if he could feel like this for real.

[nocolllhahah25]

I would totaly F**k jim morrison hahah and im a guy...no homo

[beatlesfan07480]

@nocolllhahah25 me too i would stroke his c**k while hes passed out drunk

and then fuck him with uhh wait i'm not a guy so i have nothing to fuck him with

oh yeah i'll let him fuck me instead

[MrRanwolfe]

He was ahead of his time all their music was good and different

[bibinello]

potevi essere ancora tra noi.. sei e sarai un grande per sempre jim..

[chloewalker8089]

i love his shouting and groaning ;)

[MadMike2288]

Jim Morrison My Idol

[MrSenzaCera]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kozmicblues14]

My uncles an idiot! I hate to say it but he is! Why you ask? because he said" Jim Morrison was a back door man because no one would let him in the front!" ( he made that remark when I was playing this song) well I would let Jim Morrison in my front door AND MY BACK DOOR:) <3R.I.P JIM

[pauljones2410]

" Live fast, Die young, Leave a good looking corpse."- Jim Morrison.

[omnisofos]

From my point of view: The real "doors-guy" was not Jim, but Ray Manzarek for playing not only the melody on his organ, but also the base (with his left hand).

(of course Jim filled in the rest with his dark emotional and energized poetrical songs)

[AntiHeroSkateboardss]

@omnisofos exactly, jim wouldn't be famous without ray.. but tay wouldn't have been as huge without jim. jim looked up to ray and they made a perfect duo

[blackandtanful]

THE DORS"BACK DOOR MAN"､こんなおどろおどろしｼﾞﾑ･ﾓﾘｿﾝのヴｫｰｶﾙが­あるから､演奏自体が吹き上がるのは当然!～1968ﾗｲヴ

[74bomayemcfc]

there's only a few rare clips of the doors tearing it up on full throttle...and this is one of them....

[MindlessShxt]

I just love his little dance. He was irresistible.

[huansohn21]

THE DOORS KICK FUCKIN' ASS

[XxDominicFlamezxX]

i like the doors better then the beatles i dont really like the poppy happy love songs but dont get me wrong the beatles have there good songs i jus cant say im realy a fan and if u dont get me then your lil girl understands

[feelgoodnow]

"Hey, monkey, c'mon" Who did he mean... group or audience?

[gannnad24]

@ shark22

Whilst I agree with your arguement totally I think you've done The Beatles a disservice by your estimation of them writing "happy love songs, and stuff like that."; the White Album shows they did far more than just that.

[willwelsh816]

@gannnad24 I think he ment more along how they got famous. The beatles got famous of of happy love songs, and the doors got famous from dark psychedelic rock. Though the doors have written happy love songs and the beatles dark psychedelic rock, neither of them started off their fame with either.

[gannnad24]

@willwelsh816

Thanks willwelsh816, I see your point. Sorry if I came across as a pompous ass =)

[ada71100]

sublime JIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rollingcube]

New solo-artist,Ransley.Check out all uploads on this channel.

[Seraph7771000]

"Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him."

John 14:5-7

[Seraph7771000]

The Lizard King was known 2000 years ago, and his Lizard was carved into the mountains of Peru in the Nazca Lines. These were written in the stone there by a "Heavenly Father," of an only begotten Son, named Jesus Christ. Yes, Jim's spirit travelled on, and knows redemption of his reincarnated spirit, and so he lives on. On this date 7.3.11, I do not mourn in his passing, but rejoice that he is in his Eternal Life and purpose as a Witnesses of God's mercy and His Truth. White Salamander!!

[Seraph7771000]

There was the rise of the phoney religious establishment, the Vietnam War, Communism, the Mafia, and so on. Yes, Jim was a special man, and perhaps of all options available for young people in his day, his was the best way to go. We do not all live just one life, but are travelling spirits seeking Truth and Light, and so on this date 7.3.71, Jim's spirit travelled on, and did find a place of such Truth and Light. Yes even the Lizard King has a King of KIngs over him.

[Seraph7771000]

Jim Morrison was an honest and seeking spirit, and so I comment here that I respect him. That time in America was a tough time to live in. The government that was changing fast from the Republic it was founded to be to a nemesis to the world and it's own people. The JFK assassination and deception: "The accident outside, seven people and their bride." I know there was 6 in the limo, but a 7 counting a Spirit.

[Seraph7771000]

It is personal preference thing when it comes to music. You cannot assume everyone is a cookie cutter clone of everyone else. Think for yourself, and do not get caught up in the "herdthink" and hype. If I do not like the sound nor the personalities of the Beatles, then that is just me. If you like them that does not bother me; it is not reason to lash out at someone, just a rather dumb reason to fight to me. I believe Jim Morrison was a very intelligent man.

[joriszsz]

Why not just confess that both Beatles and Doors are great, and that it's useless to start arguing about it...

[Rickylol45]

The coolest thing that Jim did was screech, man. That psychotic laugh following with a promiscuous "yeah" just made you think, damn, this guy was the sickest entertainer EVER

[juanairis1]

jim morrison .un consejo a todos nunca se entreguen por completo a este mundo. termina destruyendonos.

[kakabulle243]

fuck beatles this is better!

[grimwat]

I think Jim Morrison may have had more to do with promoting the drug culture than anyone else! He just looked so damn cool, wandering the stage, looking spaced and far away, as the band patiently played away, waiting for him to get back on board. Then, remembering where he was in the song, he'd power into it again.

End result: a work of art.

[Kuqulkan]

Fuck I love this version, two of the greatest blues songs in the voice of Jimbo and the music of the doors, I think it couldn't be more perfect

[NoForRice]

About a billion times better than the fake gay shit that plays on the radio these days ..........

[GiantDoucheNG]

That man is under the influence of drugs!

[MrLizardking94]

Why is it that every comment on here has to do with the beatles. I coulda swore i was watching Back door man by the doors. Shut the fuck up people and enjoy this incredible music

[6V6IC6]

i eat mor chicken dan any man ever seen

duznt mak any sense but comin frm jim

it maks perfect sense

[BuddyPC]

@6V6IC6

See songfacts (dot) com/detail (dot) php?id=222 for an explanation of the southern rural social history of "eating chicken" vs getting pork n beans every night.

[6V6IC6]

@BuddyPC oh danks now i see...u knw alot bout the doors?

[keithngc891]

what a shame some people have to abuse particular performers to support their love of a favourite band, I suppose it goes back to all our youths when we could not be seen to enjoy the scene of the 'other camp'. Silly really, i'm glad i stopped comparing and started listening.

[bbbbbzzzzz]

Possessed...........

[ciazio]

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm wow

[the94lude]

You're all so controversial, nobody can just sit back and listen to the doors for what they are? all you do is argue about what band is better, when in reality they're different bands that make different music and depending on you're own taste is what dictates which band you actually like better. Morrison did say that "hatred is a very underestimated emotion," and all you people do on here is hate, hate, hate, proving him right. just sit back and listen and keep your opinions to yourselves.

[fellerredseller]

i don't know why "danza kuduro" has more views than this.. lack of culture maybe?

[Gnarly2013]

Men don't know, but...hahaha I knew u would, climb all over...all right, all night, yee cum on

[flopballs]

FUCK THE BEATLES!!!Most overrated band I have ever heard.I'm sick of every bandwagon rider in this patheic world licking these douchebags assholes.You would have to be stoned to listen to them.Personally they would kill my buzz.The best English band there was and still is would deffently be the almighty Led Zeppelin!!!

[HalenNotHagar]

Here's a grand idea... Everyone stop talkin shit to one another, tryin to one-up each other with they're "I know what's hot and what's not" noise... and just get along for the love of all that's sacred. Seriously. By talkin smack and everyone thinkin they know more than the next guy, it just shows how arrogant and full of yourselves you all are. GROW UP CHILDREN!

[jprigby91]

jimmy's off his tits!

[iAZTEK]

And for the moron seraph7771000, who states that Jim was the smartest man in his time (what a stupid premise), this is not even a Jim's song,

I don't get how somebody states something big like that, there is no measurement yet to como and say right now, that this "whoever" man is the smartest alive, been a musician does not give you a plus over a Writer, Scientific, Doctor or what ever thing you do in life.

So if somebody thinks that reading to much Nietzsche, hating politics, hating religion,

[iAZTEK]

@sharku22 you put yourself here as an ignorant in what Beatles music is all about.

Stating that the Beatles is just love and happy songs and stuff like that is pure stupidness.

[sharku22]

@iAZTEK

I don't mean that absolutely all of the Beatles' songs are about love and happiness, it was just an illustration to show that a comparison between The Beatles and The Doors is not relevant. And don't say that you don't know what I mean by that...
