Grammies are Strange....but gets redeemed in the end..

I wasn’t a fan of The Doors in my college days. Fan? Well I did not know who Jim Morrison was before I knew Coordinate Geometry. It was a quiz where it all boiled down to One poet and one writer whose eyes were trained on future ( yeah Poet was Blake and writer Aldous Huxley). And question which had to decide the winner was about a band inspired by one of Blake’s poems and Brave new World’s author. Lame me could not think of anything but “Tiger Tiger Burning bright” and it was curtains for us. But it wasn’t “the end”, the band fired my imagination and yeah that chilly December evening the doors of perception were cleansed somewhat.

So it all started in tears but irony is this band of four(Morrison, Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger and John Densmore) from California brightened many a dull moment for me, and I remembered hushed advice from my friend “Careful dear while playing the original version of The End at your home , you know folks may not like it”.

Morrison was cryptic and controversial, a lethal mix if you want to be an overnight celebrity. Teeny Boppers all over the world fell and they do keep falling, yeah world over Howard Roark is a young woman’s first crush but then move over Roark screamed the media we have found ours in Jim Morrison. Yeah Teeny Boppers lapped him up. Be his accidental fall or profanity filled The End Mother mother I want to *&)(&)(&(. Yeah Morrison died at young age of 27 and eternal romance of ours with death made him a legend .Yeah tragedy always makes legends , Bradman won’t ve been the same if Hollies delivery was well read by run machine and that much sought 4 runs in last innings were duly completed. That’s life, what could have been excites us more than what has been.

Ah loved you gentlemen, and finally Grammy knows what a fool it had been not to be adorned on deserved heads, it’s too late to be blessed with a Grammy but Grammy redeems it self by Lighting fire of million of ‘The Doors’ fans, not all ‘The End’ are controversial and tragic, few can be sweet and pleasantly surprising too
