It was a great song even before it was used in Apocalypse Now, when I used to listen to it late at night (for added effect.) I didn't see the Doors movie ... I missed the real Jim too much to want to see him portrayed by an actor ... plus I got all the info I needed from reading "No One Here Gets Out Alive." Jeez, I'm dating myself big time, aren't I?
just how old are you? believe it or not, I am not the oldest on this board. we have some people here over 50 (they rock!!!)
I no longer have a record player. Have not had one since I left my first husband in 1984. I still have my old albums though collecting dust in the closet. The picture on the back of the Journey (Infinity) album (1978) is good for a laugh. The big moustaches, shag haircuts or afros, polyester bell bottoms with something very promenately displayed...
but I will keep that album Doors in mind or I'll go look for it at Record and Tape traders.

He went into the room where his sister lived, and...then he
Paid a visit to his brother, and then he
He walked on down the hall, and
And he came to a door...and he looked inside
Father, yes son, I want to kill you
Mother...i want to...fuck you
I'm guessing you've never done any drugs?

Campaigning for yourself tirelessly about never doing drugs - just as bad.
These things are out there and used responsibly can lead to a profound experience in your life. A little weed or psychadelic dabbling can, if you'll excuse the phrase, 'expand your mind'. It's not just a funny hippie cliche, it's a truth.

yes I read the LSD thread that was on the AET a few weeks ago.
I just don't understand why JM died. I thought when I was a child, that they said he died in the tub of natural causes....now this weekend I've read different reasons he died, heart attack, his girlfriend shot him up with heroin, then I read there was no autopsy. I've read like 3 conflicting things plus you never know what is true.

I think people who admit to doing drugs or talk about drugs on message boards are dumb
no comment about drugs.
the thread needs to be locked. I'm obviously different that you all and this could go on for days.
why are they dumb? because they choose to live their lives in a different way? I don't think you are dumb for not taking drugs but its not my place to say that people who do are dumb either.
just my five cents
"I remember one night at Muzdalifa with nothing but the sky overhead, I lay awake amid sleeping Muslim brothers and I learned that pilgrims from every land — every colour, and class, and rank; high officials and the beggar alike — all snored in the same language"

no, not b/c they chose to live their lives in a different way, and do drugs.

Totally agree. First time I heard it, I thought it was bone-chilling and etc, now it bores me, unless I'm watching Apocalypsis Now, it fits perfectly with the initial sequence of Martin Sheen.
The movie is so-so, for me it fails to explain why Jim Morrison was the way he was. It only delves into his drunken antics and his fascination with death. The movie does not even asks why. As many Oliver Stones, great filming and editing, but bad scripting...
To Neruda25, I don't want to pick a fight with you at all, but IMHO Pablo Neruda is greatly overrated...

The vibe of the song is amazing. The sombre feeling it gives out.
well you opened this can of worms and you can't really talk about the doors without talking about drugs...sorry.

The wrong drugs - very bad
