Re: The Doors
[ QUOTE ]
Break On Through is so much cooler than all of these songs
Also, related note...I recently have met a number of people who are decidedly anti-The Doors. What's the deal with this? I can't figure out why there's hate for them. Not saying everyone should love them, but what reason is there to actively dislike them?

I don't actively dislike The Doors... like the way I actively dislike bands that are still popular. Nobody tries to make me listen to The Doors while I'm shopping or something so I don't really care. But they are definitely overrated. The whole idea that Morrisson was a great songwriter is hooey, he was blessed with an awesome voice though.
The best doors song is probably Five to One. Other than that, they have some good ones, but they were a band with a lot more image and circumstance going for them then consistently good material. They had some strong pieces but were very uneven and had some flaws as well.
