The Doors of Perception...

My blog is named after the poem Jim Morrison read and decided to name his band “The Doors”. I like the title. We all have a different perception of reality, of life, of vision. The doors are always there, waiting to be opened. It’s up to us to choose the door we like the most and accept what’s in it. We either accept it or open another door. That’s what life is. A long corridor with countless doors. Each door hides something; pain, love, despair, hatred, death, happiness and misery. It’s up to us to open the right door when we need it the most.

“The Doors” happen to be my favorite band too. You can’t listen to their music when your mind is locked. You need to get rid of your doubts and drown in their music. It’s not just music, it’s philosophy. You’ve just entered the magical world of Jim Morrison’s lyrics and the psychedelic music accompanying them. Morrison was writing poetry. Morrison was a poet. He was a rock star, a singer, a drug-addict, a sex symbol but first of all he was a poet.

I’ve spent many nights staying awake, listening to The Doors. They are one of the few bands I’m obsessed with. I like many bands and artists but there’s only a small number of the ones that really thrill me. If I’d had to decide my top 5 it would probably be something like this:

1) The Doors

2) Nick Cave

3) Depeche Mode

4) Led Zeppelin

5) ...............

I always leave number 5 blank. It’s for the bands I like but only for a certain amount of time. Now it’s HIM. A month ago I was in love with Placebo. It depends on my mood…

Music is everything, isn’t it? I don’t dare to imagine my life without music! It would be dry, boring and emotionless. I love making music, expressing myself through lyrics.

I think I’m getting carried away! I only wanted to explain the title of my blog and I started talking for music!
So....it's pretty obvious that I love The Doors...
More is to come...
