And I lay there listening, feeling bad -
You know, people, I was feeling bad.
Mama didn’t like the way I did my thing.
The old lady, she didn’t get with that thing.
But my daddy was a sailor, get his head around,
And he said

They’re absolutely, positively under the ground.
And
As long as I got breath, the death of rock
Is the death of me,
And rock is dead
Well, we’re dead… alright… yeah !…
ROCK IS DEAD
I Doors sono stati un gruppo musicale rock statunitense, fondato nel 1965 da Jim Morrison (cantante), Ray Manzarek (tastierista), Robby Krieger (chitarrista) e John Densmore (batterista), e scioltosi definitivamente dopo otto anni di carriera effettiva nel 1973, due anni dopo la morte di Jim Morrison (avvenuta il 3 luglio del 1971). Sono considerati uno dei gruppi più influenti e controversi della musica rock, alla quale hanno unito con successo elementi blues, psichedelia e jazz. Molti dei loro brani, come Light My Fire, The End, Hello, I Love You e Riders on the Storm, sono considerati dei classici e sono stati reinterpretati da numerosi artisti delle generazioni successive. Secondo la RIAA i Doors hanno venduto 35 milioni di dischi solo negli Stati Uniti e 100 milioni di dischi nel resto del mondo. Tre studio albums della band, The Doors (1967), L.A. Woman (1971) e Strange Days (1967), figurano nella lista dei 500 migliori album, rispettivamente alle posizioni 42, 362 e 407. Nel 1993, The Doors vengono inseriti nella Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
