The Doors Men's People are Strange T-Shirt

Product Information

Dev01d from Wollongong, AustraliaThis is my favourite song by The Doors, also my favourite song to play on guitar. I just play the intro over and over. I think it's deffinately about depression and feeling alienated and doubt it's about drugs. I agree with Dustin that it's pretty stupid how people can't look past people's drug use.

Quinton from Nashville, TnThis song is about alienation from others and how strange other people can seem when you're strange yourself. This is how I was feeling just two nights ago when I had a deep introspective nightmare of a trip on four hits of acid. I felt so disconnected from society and myself that I wanted to just end it all. Thankfully I didn't, but I can't help but remember how the words of this song kept playing over and over in my mind. I truly believe that this song is about a bad trip and the result of an LSD induced disconnection with reality.Shea from Laguna Hills, Cahaha yeah definitely wasn't written about a lsd trip... jim morrison wrote this about being a constant stranger. read wild child by linda ashcroft. Chris from Tulsa, OkRobbie Krieger wrote some great stuff and he was a very good guitarist. He never really got the credit due him.

Herminio from Rosario, ArgentinaSorry but the first "fact" was at John´s house, not Robbie´s. I´m pretty shure about it because I have John´s book. Andy from MichiganWhere was the location that The Doors used for their music video People Are Strange? Lalah from Wasilla, AkI sing this when the coworker in the cube next to me talkes to loud. It bugs her. Anna from New Oxford, PaI bet he was on an acid trip. People are indeed very strange sometimes. And to Melissa, I am Ms. Mojo Risin'.

Rich from St.pete, FlI agree with tori. it is about a trip- finding it difficult to recognize faces, sometimes they are distorted and ugly in the dark, and it's all you. and he used "seem" Julie from Boston, Maaccording to Ray Manzerek, Jim wrote the song after leaving a party in New York very, very early in the morning watching the people come up out of the subways. Heather from Irving, Txthis is a badass song first off cause its very true people are strange but all in different ways!very strange..

Tori from Boston, MaIt's about LSD. "When you're strange" is referring to when you're on drugs. Depression doesn't make faces come out of the rain. Erin from Arlington, NeI don't know whether the song is the result of depression or drugs, all i know is that i can't get this song out of my head, it's something everyone can relate to. On the same show the quartet also performed "Light My Fire"; and at the time it was in its 17 week on the Top 100 and at position #32... See next posted below; and I made a mistake there, Sept. 17th is the correct date that "People Are Strange" did enter the Top 100.. Chloe from St. Louis, Moacid?! why must every song be about acid?! this is just about the wierdness of society. never has a statement been so true- people are strange.Six days earlier on September 17th, 1969* the song had entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart at position #65... Elysia from Hamilton, New ZealandYou're probably all right. I think this song is about lonliness in general, this can be caused while tripping or depression or whatever. We all tend to feel alienated sometimes, Jim's mind saw things through in extreme measures..so why does it have to be literal? Maybe he felt that in his little world at the time he wrote it - that faces came out of the rain. Who knows what he was thinking and feeling at the time, but whatever you take from the song is probably right. He was an amazing poet that could and still can reach all of us on different levels. Tristan from Philadelphia, PaFirst time I heard this song was on my dads old record player off or Strange Days, before hearing it I thought, who are the doors? This song got me to be the fan I am today. The very next day on September 18th it entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart at position #65; and on October 22nd, 1967 it peaked at #12 {for 1 week} and spent 9 weeks on the Top 100... Rebeka from Rijeka, CroatiaThis is my favourite Doors song.The lyrics is so simple but so smart.I can just listen it all day long.
