At first flash of Eden, we race down to the sea
Standing there on freedom's shore

Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun

Can you feel it, now that spring has come?
That it's time to live in the scattered sun

Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun

Waiting
Waiting
Waiting
Waiting

Waiting
Waiting
Waiting
Waiting

Waiting for you to come along
Waiting for you to hear my song
Waiting for you to come along
Waiting for you to tell me what went wrong

This is the strangest life I've ever known
Yeah!

Can't you feel it, now that spring has come?
That it's time to live in the scattered sun

Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun

The Doors: Pathetisch aber langweilig.

Why wait for the sun?

Because Mr. Microdot or Ms. Orange Sunshine said it is so and they spoke to you around 2 am.   


Is it 25 or 6 to 4?

Been a long time now.  It took years to get that image out of my head.

Thankfully it is long gone.  It was a good movie though.  Not in any hurry to see it again and replant the image of Kilmer as Morrison back into my head one more time.  Even seeing Meg Ryan again as Pamela is not worth it.

Why wasn't "Waiting for the Sun" rwleased on Waiting for the Sun? There was a copy of that album in our home in 1969. Strange days indeed (for a 9-year old).

Definitely different, and that's why I've always loved them. Morrison's spooky creativity, raw earthiness, and unpredictable fearlessness scared a lot of folks; I dig it!

The cover photo was taken by Henry Diltz at the actual Morrison Hotel, located at 1246 South Hope Street in Los Angeles. Diltz told the desk clerk they were going to take a few photos, and the clerk said they couldn’t without the owner’s permission and the owner wasn’t there. They took the pictures while the clerk was inside the elevator. The elevator numbers right under the ‘son’ in ‘Morrison’ are lit in the cover. The band jumped right behind the windows and hit their places without shuffling as Diltz took the shot...

Not true. We enjoy a lot of different things, and it's fine to hate the Doors, like I do. Morrison comes off like a high school self-important bully, and I don't need that in my music.

What's not OK is to hate the other RP listeners. It's fine to talk about the music, but let's stay away from insulting each other.
It isn't hard to do. 

 
So you hate The Doors? Not ambivalent towards, dislike, don't care for, or won't listen to but actually HATE.  This is music we're talking about.

You come off like a high school self-important bully.  I don't need that on my message board.

I was listening to Trey Anastasio play solo on NPR's Tiny Desk Concerts (YouTube). After some of the much newer talent I'd seen behind that desk beforehand, he came across very week at first.  But after really listening to the unique signature of his voice, I could just dig it.

I do think that newer artists have inherited a counter-culture music scene infrastructure — a culture! — that encourages them to grow up from 9 or 10, often with parental encouragement (!), thinking of a career in pop/alternative/punk as a serious endeavor they can take on with hours and hours of practice, whereas earlier phenoms may have emerged more out of nowhere.

So newer music may have some greater talents in it just by virtue of the performers coming to it as a serious endeavor.
Compare Hozier to Trey under Tiny Desk Concerts, for example.
Some Tiny Desk favorites include

Lucius
TuneYards (my capitalization varies)
Robyn Hitchcock (a geezer who seems to have found his voice in latest albums)
Daniel Lanois ('nother geezer)

Reading all the negative comments on this song as well as "Long Time Coming" by CS&N, and it seems divided into 2 camps - those who think it's time has come and gone and those who defend it over newer music. But why? Can't we like Morrisey AND Morrison? This is why I like RP and tune in quite a bit. It plays a wide variety, though I will freely admit it is more likely aimed at the 50+ crowd. Not that you can't enjoy it while younger. I don't think you "had to be there" to enjoy CS&N, just as you didn't have to "be there" to enjoy "Rite of Spring" or Ragtime or "Kind of Blue." Thank humanity for sound recordings! (And you know, instead of tellign everyone how much you hate the music, why not just change the channel? There are over 10,000 to choose from . . . .)

You can test your own comment as to whether it makes sense: track down and listen to the two albums the Doors put out after Morrison died ("Other Voices" and "Full Circle"). I've heard the latter one...don't think you'll be thrilled. 

Morrison wasn't always drunk and obnoxious. He definitely got that way as time went on and as the band was winding down. I'll leave it to others to pass judgment on his writing, although I believe he was better at writing lyrics than poetry. Then again, he was only 27 when he died...

I have to agree. I got into all of these bands about the same time. In high school of course many guys thought they wanted to be Jim Morrison. But then we grow up. While the Doors do have some great songs, this is an example of overly simplistic and repetitive lyrics, and music that fails to impress. I'll take a good riff from any of the above bands over this any day.

It turns out that putting together, side by side,  the music and art (painting, photo, etc.) is not easy.
And it's even harder when trying to put art works of high quality to illustrate a theme, in this case music, alongside, or in parallel, with a humorous comment, free, childish, and some completely stupid about the musicians and their work without the basic respect.
Then, as a result, artists are reluctant to allow the publication of their work.
And we all lose. Anyway, is this world we live .....
Yes, but we can change.

Ground breaking stuff.  Not necessarily a stand alone great song unless you really like it in the first place.  But when played with the rest of the album side in context it might sound better, unless you don't like the Doors at all, then never mind ...

What folks today use a Moog and computers for, bands like the Doors used settings on regular instruments to achieve.

I used to listen to a lot of Doors when I was younger, but as I got older, I lost it, Morrison's music just is not that fulfilling, not to mention that since learning about his personal life, it just washed away any respect I had for his stuff.


You must also dislike the Beatles, the Stones, and just about every other group here on RP.

That aside, I rather enjoyed seeing The Doors, with Val Kimer as Mr. Mojo Risin'.

On the other hand, seeing Ray in concert a couple of years ago with Roy Rogers was a real turn-off. I go to concerts to hear music with an occasional anecdote—not to hear a bunch of personal political and pseudo-religious beliefs being thrust on me. Thankfully, the venue promoters comp'ed me a couple of tickets to another show of my choice. (This is in no way any reflection on Roy, whom I've enjoyed seeing twice alongside Norton Buffalo.)
