Cannot state I ever listened to them, unless it was a song of theirs I heard unintentionally somewhere without realizing it was them.

 

ok, i live where jim morrison grew up. seriously!!! he grew up here. THAT BEING SAID

they are waaaay overrated. and jim was a douchebag n a half.

listen to some grateful dead, or rhcp if you want a real band...

 

The problem is everybody got an opinion

They were doing something no one else at the time were doing. I always loved their sound. Morrison was gonna be Morrison, not much could be done about that. Brilliant poet and a tortured soul...

 

yes,, but if you are going to think that tyrson,, yes jim was before this dude, but this dude walked miles around jim morrison

lane staley!!!

alice n chains>>>>>>the doors

 

The Doors were the best band ever because...No one ever really copied their sound - or knew how to.

 

aic is good stuff also... But it's not the Doors, it's aic. Different mood between those two bands.

 

The doors excite feelings of rebellion in members from all generations. Jim was a pioneer in the way he performed on stage, and the Doors themselves left a huge mark on Rock and Roll History. I wouldn't say they're the best band in the world but they are in a list of my top favorites. They'll always have a special place in my heart.

 

The Doors are amazing in that they have a sound that pierces into the psyche, hypnotic and often dark in an Liberated Hedonistic tone which separated them from a lot of the psychedelic pop/rock at the time, yet their sound was also refined, soulful, and was able to reconcile some of their free form sounding jams/poetry bridges with more traditional song structure which separated them from a lot of the garage and experimental music.

Very unique, wonderful group.

 

well i don't think being sent from your phone using tapatalk really qualifies a band as "best ever," although the fact that they apparently did this way back in the '60s does prove that they were WAY ahead of their time.

From their debut album 'The Doors'. Lyrics: You know the day destroys the night Night ...



You know the day destroys the night
Night divides the day
Tried to run
Tried to hide
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side, yeah

We chased our pleasures here
Dug our treasures there
But can you still recall
The time we cried
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side


Yeah!
C'mon, yeah


Everybody loves my baby
Everybody loves my baby
She get
She get
She get
She get high


I found an island in your arms
Country in your eyes
Arms that chain us
Eyes that lie
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side
Break on through, oww!
Oh, yeah!


Made the scene
Week to week
Day to day
Hour to hour
The gate is straight
Deep and wide
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side
Break on through
Break on through
Break on through
Break on through
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

 

They are one of the best to me. Why? Because I really really dig their sound on a lot of songs. It's that simple. I don't care that their vocalist might have been a dick. I thought this was about the doors (thus: music).

That's crazy.

Haha, nuts! :sultan:

 

I would say that the Tea Party would be comparable.

 

Exactly their music is so unique but many people just concentrate on their lyrics. People seem to forget that they really were at the forefront of the changing of music...stage behaviour etc I guess they are a bit obscure for many.
