Strange Days – The Doors
Today’s Music to help keep up my spirits through Isolation! – The Doors!!
I’ve always loved the Doors right since the moment I heard that first album. I worked all Friday night at Lyons bakery in Kingston and met this fellow long-hair there called Mike. He was trying to grow his hair to his feet and so refused to brush it in case it broke the ends off! He introduced me to the Doors first album and eulogised over them.
I did too.
Such a shame that Jim Morrison messed himself up on alcohol! I would have loved that band to be around a lot longer. They were superb live!
My favourite album is Strange Days. I used to play it to death.
I’m going to put it on now and turn the dial to twelve!!
Jim Morrison Quotes.
Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.
That makes great sense to me – except there are some fears that are hard to confront and some, like death, that you can’t.
There are things known and things unknown and in between are the doors.
Science opens doors into knowledge, wonder and awe for me.
I think of myself as an intelligent, sensitive human being with the soul of a clown which always forces me to blow it at the most important moments.
Me too. I’m not sure I’ll ever grow up and stop being a clown.
A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.
I have very few complete friends. People only see one side or another.
Where’s your will to be weird?
I’ve still got it.
Death makes angels of us all and gives us wings where we had shoulders smooth as ravens claws.
We’re never so perfect as when we’re no longer here.
I like people who shake other people up and make them feel uncomfortable.
They make you alive! But sometimes they can be a pain.
This is the strangest life I’ve ever known.
It’s the only one too!
I believe in a long, prolonged, derangement of the senses in order to obtain the unknown.
Perceptions of reality require perspective. There is no certainty and ultimately no facts.
Whoever controls the media, controls the mind.
I fear they are perfecting it and manipulating us. Where’s democracy?
Jim Morrison Quotes – The Lizard King tests reality.
The Doors were one of the top bands. Jim had a reputation for being unreliable and drunk but listening to all the bootlegs he usually sounds great.
If it had not been for his alcohol and drug intake they would not have imploded. His poetry to music worked so well.
The trouble with Jim was that he had this philosophy that reality was unreal and that we humans could pierce it and emerge into a higher reality. He believed drugs were the route.
For those short years the Doors shone. Then Jim got in such a mess he left, went to Paris and died in mysterious circumstances.
My favourite album remains Strange Days – their second.
There are things known and things unknown and in between are the doors.
Sounds a bit Rumsfelt. Maybe he was secretly listening to the Doors. Aldous Huxley’s Doors of Perception and William Blake combine to create the Doors.
I think of myself as an intelligent, sensitive human being with the soul of a clown which always forces me to blow it at the most important moments.
Sounds like a lot of us. We make it a habit to sabotage ourselves. That human beings for you.
A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.
So true. With a real friend you can totally relax, talk about anything and all the defences go down. So few true friends.
Where’s your will to be weird?
I’ve still got mine pretty much intact. Without it life is pretty dull and mad.
I like people who shake other people up and make them feel uncomfortable.
I like people who don’t fit in, who speak their mind and speak out against the madness, people who create, communicate and laugh a lot.
This is the strangest life I’ve ever known.
Me too. And it’s the only one we’ll ever have. Best make the most of it.
Whoever controls the media, controls the mind.
 And haven’t we seen that all too often of late with Brexit and Trump/Clinton. We are systematically lied to and manipulated.
