Analysis of "Break on Through" by The Doors

[huntAblunt]

funny, the part he doesnt know what to say..:"lets not stop there"...ridiculous....man tell us what you think is that island in her arms, and that country in her eyes......I dont like what he says about his lyric....he says nothing about the meaning and keeps talking about I dont know what.....island in your arms-he can get away(no ship), her arms chain as he said.....country in your eyes-something huge....he sees her eyes that tell him something and cant get away cause it attracts

[ElevatedPro]

This guy is awesome (and it IS a gift to be able to eloquently analyze poetry) but when he was reading "She get high," all I could think of was Christopher Walken reading Poker Face. I'm sorry.

Great review! Great Song! Down with the doors of perception, up with infinite.

[ABGLINE]

@TheDennisegg I interpret it as death.

Blues are stolen all the time. Mostly from black people from around 1929.

Aldous Huxley "The Doors of Perception" is where this tune came from . As a matter of fact, " There are things that are known, and there are things that are unknown, in between there are the doors." When are you coming to Lowell again and bring Ray too, my piano mentor.

[wireandwood]

they loved blake in the sixties! Visionary loonies spoke a lot of truth Eh?

[willabeesgotapollo13]

I get high too!

[cmskid20]

i bought a new doors shirt

[mebecnc]

i pretty sure jim would be happy that his lyrics remind another of william blake :)

[nhlpens]

This song is all about the instant moment you die, when you "break on through" to the other realm that is.

Check out books and tapes by Robert A. Monroe to explore OBEs

it will forever change how you live.

"We will survive physical death"

[LionProductionsTV]

his fucking clicking inner mouth annoys

[Rockshift999]

I've just realized these are the best lyrics for a song Ever created by man.

[Shamagogue]

....Prudence is a rich,ugly old maid..courted by incapacity....

[ambarr1]

the song is about sex.

break on through...her vagina,

the place where the sun never shines for most girls ;)

[cmskid20]

I like these types of people that talk like that

[MrBillsButtocks]

Good tunez. Also like Lady Gaga.

[thebeans00]

fuckin paedophile dont know what your talkin about you bad excuse for a human being  .............filth

[redtron]

Hi Mike:) Love ya, cat!!

[Hulahop36]

No interpretation of a docile "poet" can give no interpretation of the ancien poetry of Jim.

Jim read Nietzsche at 16 or 17.

His words are like from Homer oder Squilo words, nothing to do with bourgeois poetry! He speaks like the earth,, without mediator

[m2dff]

2:04 damn just watch from there, funny as hell

[ziribai]

He forgot to mention that "The gate is straight deep and wide" is a biblical passage.

[xkdawg360x]

This video is longer than the actual song

[thehomefront]

deep and wide, wonder what hes refering to there.

[Doctorgoatboy]

Gate is straight is a reference to the bible

[sussi2198]

im sure he's a good analyser and all, but this song is nothing more than a request from Jim to get the listener to break on through

[Snotra]

Jim hated hippies!

[zoidedsok]

for those ppl who don't know...Michael McClure is one of the most influential poets of our time and he was a close and personal friend of Jim Morrison,i love this analysis and i also love his mentions of William Blake's poetry R.I.P. James Douglas Morrison :)

[SteezeWizard99]

this guy fucked up this song when he tried to read it

[xrowdyroddypiperx]

This guys ready to drop his pants and start masturbating. Break on through Michael, Break on through. "yea not really"

[SonofBrunhilde]
