Some one once said that "There are things known and there are things unknown, and in between are the doors." Born on December 8, 1943, in Melbourne, Florida, Jim Morrison was an American rock singer and songwriter. He studies film at UCLA, where he met the members of what would become the Doors. Known for his drinking and drug use and outrageous stage behavior in 1971 Morrison left the Doors to write poetry and moved  to Paris, where he died of heart failure. Jim Morrison was an American poet who played a major role in the revolution of rock music in the U.S. throughout the late sixties and part of the seventies. His music had influenced millions and changed the way that people looked at rock as a whole. Jim Morrison from boy to legend is often thought of as a drunk musician.The music of The Doors takes the listener on a journey through the doors of perception and invites the listener to experience through music, what Jim Morrison was fascinated with throughout his brief but dramatic career. Having never analyzed the music of the Doors before I am extremely glad that i did. there is wealth of information that lies through Jim Morrison's poetry that most people seem to miss.
