This is the end, my only friend, the end.

The Doors - The end.

That is such a hot song, i love it when he just starts singing fuck, fuck, fuck, good stuff

The Doors are one of the greatest bands ever...those of you who have never listened to them, check 'em out...

The song that has always touched/haunted me the most is "Crystal Ships":

More Great Songs, fantastic band, i just finished reading a book on Jim Morrison, i know he died young but what a fucking life.

Morrison's grave is one of the most visted sites in Paris.

The engraving on his tombstone reads variously...

RIP Jim Morrison...An American Poet

ADG Webmaster

He was one of the best poets of all time.

I've always like "Not to touch the earth", and all of LA Woman.

Oh yeah, my favorite of all times is soft parade

Yep.





And he enjoyed riding the bus.

One of the most authoritative books about Jim Morrison is titled "No One Here Gets Out Alive". It's absolutely spellbinding - it takes you on a mindbending trip of love, and lust, and decadence. It is both foreboding and divine - darkness and light - it is Jim Morrison.



Some Jim Morrison quotes:

A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.

*****

Blake said that the body was the soul's prison unless the five senses are fully developed and open. He considered the senses the 'windows of the soul.' When sex involves all the senses intensely, it can be like a mystical experence.

*****

Drugs are a bet with your mind.

*****

Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.

*****

Film spectators are quiet vampires.

*****

Friends can help each other. A true friend is someone who lets you have total freedom to be yourself-and especially to feel. Or, not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at the moment is fine with them. That's what real love amounts to-letting a person be what he really is.

*****

Hatred is a very underestimated emotion.

*****

I am interested in anything about revolt, disorder, chaos-especially activity that seems to have no meaning. It seems to me to be the road toward freedom... Rather than starting inside, I start outside and reach the mental through the physical.

*****

I believe in a long, prolonged, derangement of the senses in order to obtain the unknown.

*****

I like any reaction I can get with my music. Just anything to get people to think. I mean if you can get a whole room full of drunk, stoned people to actually wake up and think, you're doing something.

*****

I see myself as a huge fiery comet, a shooting star. Everyone stops, points up and gasps "Oh look at that!" Then - whoosh, and I'm gone... and they'll never see anything like it ever again, and they won't be able to forget me - ever.

*****

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.

*****

I think in art, but especially in films, people are trying to confirm their own existences.

*****

I was stoned. It seemed like a fun thing to do at the time.

*****

If my poetry aims to achieve anything, it's to deliver people from the limited ways in which they see and feel.

*****

It's like gambling somehow. You go out for a night of drinking and you don't know where your going to end up the next day. It could work out good or it could be disastrous. It's like the throw of the dice.

*****

Listen, real poetry doesn't say anything; it just ticks off the possibilities. Opens all doors. You can walk through anyone that suits you.

*****

Love cannot save you from your own fate.

*****

Music inflames temperament.

*****

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.

*****

Sex is full of lies. The body tries to tell the truth. But, it's usually too battered with rules to be heard, and bound with pretenses so it can hardly move. We cripple ourselves with lies.

*****

The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask.

*****

The time to hesitate is through.

*****

There are things known and there are things unknown, and in between are the doors.

*****

Violence isn't always evil. What's evil is the infatuation with violence.

*****

I am the lizard king. I can do anything.

The END

Riders on the Storm

Was anyone lucky enough to see the tour of the Doors of the 21st century with Ian Astbury as lead singer.

Roadhouse Blues
LA Women
Hello I Love You

One of my best friends is a Doors fanatic. He has played several cds to me and to be honest they're ok but nothing great.
I don't mind any of their stuff but I really hate "Light My Fire".

Crystal Ship

Although their live version of the garage band standard "Gloria!" was amazing...

Peace Frog

But they had so many outstanding songs. I have everything they ever did.

I like just about everything they did, but I think their version of Gloria is one of my faves.

I LOVE Yes, the river knows. That song is so nice!

Alabama Song,Spanish Caravan,Roadhouse Blues.All Their Songs Are good

peace frog and waiting for the sun are up there. hard to pick a favorite. all the albums are great, tho the soft parade was a bit weak.

people are strange.
