Day 25 ... a song you like by an artist no longer living
People Are Strange - The Doors
This song was released in 1967 on the band's second album, Strange Days. Its lyrics came to Jim during the epic trip to the Laurel Canyon and Robby Krieger put them on music.
The song is about alienation and being an outsider, feelings that drove Jim to the path that ended so unfortunate for him.
I like it due to its strange music and to the lyrics describing what we all feel sometimes. However, making the same choices as Jim is not a must. 🙂
This is my contribution to Promo-Steem Summer Song-Challenge initiated by @connecteconomy.
I love The Doors and had a slight obsession with Jim Morrison growing up. Great choice!

Who didn't dream of Jim during the teenage years? 🙂

I made a post a few weeks back about it being National Book Day or some strange holiday and was reading his poetry book entitled Wilderness. If you haven't read it, it's a good read. Some of the poems are even in his handwriting. I'm not sure if you are into his poetry or not, but thought I would throw that out there for you in case you were interested and didn't know about it.

I read everything Jim wrote but this was some time ago. You gave me a good idea, I should re-read his poems. It's a good way to remember my teenage years and some of the feelings I experienced back then. 🙂

I re-read his poems every now and then for the same reason. It is good to remember some of the things I was going through back then during that time and the emotions I was going through and what certain poems of his struck up different feelings.

A great band, which unfortunately left behind too few songs.

So true. However I don't see Jim and the guys fitting in on these times. And this is sad.
