I’d say he got what he wanted.
I’d like to experience being Jim Morrison for a couple of nights
He should have waited it out. This Covid vaccine mania is the new mold for cultural insanity.
The sixties could best be understood as the prolonged tantrum of privlidged, white, pampered narcissists crazed with drugs. Never represented a majority but they were the children of the elite in business, academia, the media, entertainment and cultural institutions. The boys were all terrified of being sent to Vietnam.
Well, after all, people are strange...
Yup... he wanted to break on through to the other side.
Morrison was insane. He was also intelligent, well read, and serious out-of-control alcoholic (his drug of choice) drug abuser...
Rehab or death was his future back then. A forced intervention might have been the only way to avoid entanglement with the criminal justice system.
Sad really, high profile, but sad.
“ He should have waited it out. This Covid vaccine mania is the new mold for cultural insanity.”
Oh and he could have experienced the National and world wide acceptance of a senile corrupticrat and the entire democrat, GOP parties plus the judiciary steal the presidential election along with the catostrophic consequences.
"Let me tell you something. We need a two and a half hour movie about the Doors? Folks, no we don't. I can sum it up for you in five seconds, ok. I'm drunk. I'm nobody. I'm drunk. I'm famous. I'm drunk. I'm ____ing dead. There's the whole movie, ok!? 'Big Fat Dead Guy In a Bath Tub', there's your title for you."
Am I the only one who thinks that The Doors’ music hasn’t aged well...at all?
So he wanted to experience being a Democrat!
So did he have syphilis or not . I hope he wasn’t spreading it to groupies , just for the experience .
As his demon(s) grew tired of him.
Dead cats, dead rats
Can’t see what they were at, all right
Dead cat in a top hat, wow
Drowning in your own vomit sure beats a slow syphilitic death. He got lucky.
I grew up with the Doors. But all I can say now is that it’s the song not the singer.
Certainly made an impression. “One thin line draws the border between madness and the genius.”
I have yet to understand what others perceive as genius on Morrison’s part. I also keep asking myself who their bassist was. Keys, drums, guitar, vocals is all I come up with. I suppose Manzarek could use the lower keys.
I like two or three of their tunes enough to have in library, but would not go out of my way to collect any or all of their albums. That said, I enjoy reading and viewing accurate depictions of their lives and work.
Liked the Moody Blues better than the Doors. The Moody Blues were transcendental smooth with Justin Hayward, while the Doors with Jim Morrison were drugged-out, bat-chit crazy.
Jim Morrison was a real piece of dung. If he had survived he would have burned out early.
Demonic
