Has anyone else been having this issue lately? I've never had a problem with Siri understanding what I say, but as of late, she interprets my voice COMPLETELY wrong yet does what I ask. For example, I said "Play album Up & Away", she shows that I dictated "play album open door", yet plays 'Up & Away.' I know sometimes she will guess things close to what you said to find a match with what you are requesting but these don't even sound alike, and it's been happening a lot...

She has artificial intelligence.

I think this is what happened in your case:

1) Siri's transcription engine understood what you said as, "Siri play open door"
2) Siri thinks "Wait, there are no albums, artists or tracks by the name of 'Open Door.' I think what the user wants me to do is play the album 'Up and Away.'."

Then shouldn't it have said that there are no matches? I think it's just a glitch.
