A pyre, also known as a funeral pyre, is a structure, usually made of wood, for burning a body as part of a funeral rite or execution. As a form of cremation, a body is placed upon or under the pyre, which is then set on fire.
When I was 7 in 1967 .the doors music represents total freedom. Dick Clark always love bands with inspiration to give to his audience and people on his show. The doors will give new art work for young minds .
@@betsyduane3461 It is a horrible pop song. It is garbage. Now wonder Morrison was self-destructive. He had to sing this. It's pedantic junk. I really dislike the song as it appeals to the common. I like Aaron Copeland but this can't be his fanfare.
They did some great songs-Break On Through, Love Me Two Times, Spanish Caravan, Crystal Ship, Riders On The Storm, Five To One, Strange Days, People Are Strange, When The Music's Over & my own personal favourite Waiting For The Sun.
The year was 1967. The Doors had their first big album which it had 'Light My Fire' but it had the 7 minute version. It was one of the top songs of that year but in that year The Beatles had one of the best albums of all time...Sgt. Peppers, plus other big groups had big hits like The Who, The Association..'Windy', The Hollies, The Grassroots, Jefferson Airplane, The Turtles, Procol Harum, plus many 'garage' bands. It was truly a great year of memories.
Jim Morrison was always an intellectual. He was a poet. He was more than a rock star that took too much peyote or LSD or cocaine. I have all his bios and his poetry books and An American Prayer on CD. Even in his lyrics, Jim was an intellectual. He never wrote "dumb, catchy hooks". He read German Philosophers like Friedrich Nietzsche and Franz Kafka. Jim Morrison is who got ME into reading Nietzsche and Kafka. Jim had a GENIUS IQ of 149. He met Ray Manzarek in UCLA Film School. He was going to be a filmmaker before he told Ray about his poetry lyrics and they formed The Doors. Jim Morrison was amazing. He was definitely more than you see if that falsified movie Oliver Stone put out in 1991 where Stone made up some of Jim's history for "dramatic license". Jim started out with drugs for enlightenment. He'd go out in the desert and just spend the day high as if he were on a spiritual journey. After the Miami Indecency Trial, he went to Paris to unwind from it all fully intending to return to the states. He had a phone conversation with either Ray or Robby Krieger talking about how great the L.A. Woman album was coming along and how he couldn't wait to sing the songs live. His death due to a cocaine-induced heart failure just happened to be when he was in a bathtub in Paris. Jim Morrison was THE VOICE of The Doors, no matter how Ray Manzarek wants to replace him in The Doors of the 21st Century. "I see myself as an intelligent, sensitive human, with the soul of a clown which forces me to blow it at the most important moments." -- Jim Morrison "If my poetry aims to achieve anything, it's to deliver people from the limited ways in which they see and feel." -- Jim Morrison "Drugs are a bet with your mind." -- Jim Morrison "People fear death even more than pain. It's strange that they fear death. Life hurts a lot more than death. At the point of death, the pain is over. Yeah, I guess it is a friend." ~ Jim Morrison "Actually I don't remember being born, it must have happened during one of my blackouts." -- Jim Morrison
Well said my man! I had every f'n Doors album...1967 was the year for "Light My Fire" ...I was and impressionable 14 yr old at the time. After the Doors, dinner with my parents was never the same!
It it is rumored that in the very beginning performing live on stage Jim would sing with his back to the audience as time when on and when he was feeling more comfortable about being on stage he finally turned around and once he did all the girls went nuts because he looked like some sort of Greek god.
Since Jim sung the lyric "we couldn't get much higher" on live TV they were banned from the Ed Sullivan show for life. Which was the most watched variety show on TV in the USA. Jim was supposed to change the lyric for the show-he did not!
If you watch The Doors movie with Val Kilmer (from 1991), I think you'd get a different look of this song, kinda like how everyone's "(re)discovered" Bohemian Rhapsody or Running Up That Hill over the last few years do to the movie/show. Plus The Doors is a great movie too! And oh yeah, the album version of this track has a super long break in the middle.
Most people don't know that this song is really 21 minutes long I have the album one Side of the album part A it's just the one song 🎵. Light my fire 🔥 the doors are a rock and roll legend in rock music 🎶
Ya'll need to watch a version where he isn't lip synching. That was the norm back then on shows like American Bandstand. Watch them do the Ed Sullivan show. Same song, but Jim sings live, and it blows this away.
A funeral PYRE, in the old old days people, after they died would be burned on a "funeral pyre" Usually made out of wood from near trees. In many cultures only the "wealthy" would get a nice pyre. Kinda like today, cremation, and more expensive coffins. Side note: I mentioned this in a different reaction video and I will again, one more time only LOL...the video sound quality is very flat like an old but quality AM radio. I am even running an equalizer and it does not help. If your not sure what I mean, check out a different reaction channel and compare their to yours. I am not an Apple guy so no guesses as to why this is happening, but fixing it would up the enjoyment factor x100!!!!!! Thank you
This is a much shorter version of the original I imagine because of time restraints they had to shorten it up. Jim was a very talented person and was ahead of his time this song was recorded and released in 1967 so this is the reason for the clothing that was worn and the style of the hair was very in. You need to be more open minded about the songs and styles of the era since you weren't around at the time.
to bad you guys did not listen to the full version, i have seen reactors who needed a break from that, because the orgasm in the music was to much for them.
No need to explain....lol my dad played this and so much other classics that I'm so knowledgeable with this... ahahahaahh.. she's just not exposed to great music that's all
Man, this song loses so much of its "oomph" without the extended keyboard and guitar solos. I get that we have the "radio version" here, but man, it's just nowhere near as epic as the original. He's saying "funeral pyre". If they don't move, if they don't take action, their love will end, and it will burn upon a funeral pyre.
Dude…why would you sabotage her experience with the doors by not playing the full version with this garbage…you screwed this one up big time. Do some homework when you choose a song maye sure to get the full version and stop undermining her.
One of the greatest songs of all time.
Jim Morrison didn't let anyone tell him what to do. I like his voice so powerful.

Is simple:either you like it or not. For me is GREAT.

Listen to the real full 7 min version
Seriously. You missed out on the whole solo! For this particular song you have to hear the full album cut first! 🔥🔥🔥
Light my Fire is a garbage song, except for Morrisons tweaking of the lyrics.
@@jackasswhiskyandpintobeans9344 One of the best songs ever written. LOL

It was a huge hit , regardless of the distaste for chorus...It still stands up extremely well, imho
All great songs stand up even when listeners don't.

Agreed 👍

Baby you couldn't fix my flat tire!
Jimbo's response to be banned from Ed Sullivan was " we already did that show".
" the soft parade " live in P.B.S ...
Gothic rock masterpiece, so cool 😎
6th biggest song of 1967
I love this song !But I appreciate your authenticity.
Funeral pyre, burning a corpse as part of a funeral ceremony
The keyboard player is a genius at his craft. "Riders On The Storm", "LAWoman".
Raymond Daniel Manzarek. Born two twelve, thirty nine. Occupation? Keyboard, Bass keyboard, songwriter, genius etc etc etc...
Genius is a bald face overstatement.
i love her accent it's so beautiful

“Like I dunno.” “What’s a funeral pile?” Etcetera. One of the most uneducated reviews I’ve ever heard.

Great eyebrows on both of you. Just saying

"A funeral pile"
Nice channel,New subscriber,can you guys react to a cool feel good song,the song is SWEET CITY WOMAN,by the STAMPEDERS,thank you.
Too bad this is the super short version for a tv show. They long version is so much better.
Y
Hello I love you maybe would be a better song for some people.
A funeral pyre.
No need to explain....lol my dad played this and so much other classics that I'm so knowledgeable with this... ahahahaahh.. she's just not exposed to great music that's all
NOT THIS VERSION!!!!!!
Why playing a version that isn't even live? Check out the version on the Ed Sullivan show!!! Vintage Lizard King!!
The album track is FAR better with the keyboard sili and the guitar olo
Didn't like the chorus in Light My Fire..Still can't understand that!
You don't like Jim Morrison???? The Doors??? OMG.
Man, this song loses so much of its "oomph" without the extended keyboard and guitar solos. I get that we have the "radio version" here, but man, it's just nowhere near as epic as the original.
He's saying "funeral pyre". If they don't move, if they don't take action, their love will end, and it will burn upon a funeral pyre.
Dude you are putting your woman down and she likes Jim Morrison.
Nah.. you gotta play the full version... not this 3 minute cut travesty
Let her react to some church music. It appears Rock is a little to racy for her Ugh
Who cares about one word of lyrics? Lol
Right on!
She's not the brightest bulb on the tree.
Lost cause, dude, you'll never be happy now! Future with her is doomed, (for you)! Sorry
Awful. Y'all cut out the best part. Shame on you. No sub, no rec to friends. Fix it.
Dude…why would you sabotage her experience with the doors by not playing the full version with this garbage…you screwed this one up big time. Do some homework when you choose a song maye sure to get the full version and stop undermining her.
Couple of bozoz
My opinion is that you chose the worst video to introduce her to Jim Morrison and The Doors!!!🫣
