Roberto Duran: The Doors- Five To One- With Lyrics

Source:Roberto Duran-The Lizard King Jim Morrison pondering.

"Cinco A Uno es el tema final del álbum Waiting For The Sun, es un grito de Guerra que comprende algo que se consideró algo violento en esas épocas hoy The Doors esta más vivo...  

From Roberto Duran

What I get from The Doors Five To One and remember most of it is there Miami concert in 1969. The Lizard King Jim Morrison, showing up hours late to that concert and drunk. And completely off his game (at least as a professional vocalist) looking very wobbly and at one point getting frustrated and starts cursing at the audience. He was so high and drunk on alcohol (as perhaps only a proud Irishman could be, LOL) that he starts trying to start a riot, or at least violence in the concert hall.

At least from a musical standpoint the 69 Miami concert was the worst performance that Jim Morrison ever gave. He was pissed off and drunk the whole time and the audience ends up booing him. But of course no one leaves, because they want to see what The Lizard King will do next. Sort of like a performer at a circus and at this point in Morrison's career that is really all he was. People watching him to see what crazy act will come next. 

Whatever you think of the song Five To One, that is how Jim Morrison goes out before ending up being tried in Miami for indecent exposure and foul language in public.

The Doors: Jim Morrison- 'Love Me Two Times'

"The Doors - Love Me Two Times Bonus Track" 

From The Doors 

Love Me Two Times, is a classic blues rock song. John Densmore plays the drums perfectly in this video and song. And the video is great as well and it combines both video and concert footage of The Doors. As well as showing Jim Morrison in the California desert acting out in the video. As well as Jim Morrison and The Doors in concert in London from 1968, as well as in San Jose, California in 1968. 

I don't know this for a fact, but I believe this song is about Jim Morrison and his relationship with long-term on and off girlfriend Pam Courson. They both loved each other, but to say they had a rocky relationship would be like saying there's a chance of getting wet when you jump in the ocean. You would end up breaking some world record for stating the obvious with a comment like that. 

Love Me Two Times suggest that there may be something wrong with a relationship and the love is being questioned by at least one member of that relationship. But that might just be me saying this, but this is an excellent blues song with a great beat.

Detroit Tigers TV: MLB 1990- Detroit Tigers @ Cleveland Indians: Full Game

"Missing 7th and 8th inning, with no scoring." 

From GI Bomber

A chance to see a baseball game from Cleveland Municipal Stadium. I know that it was nicknamed the mistake by the lake and the Cleveland Indians for the most part were never good there and played in front of empty crowds, where you might feel like you are at a A or AA minor league baseball game. But this was a good looking park for baseball. Fans were right on top the action, with very little territory and the place looked good for baseball. 

The problem with Cleveland Municipal Stadium was the Browns also played there and were always popular there and the place was so damn big as a result. But if the park was 50-55 thousand for baseball and the Browns had their own stadium, I think this would've been one of the better looking ballparks in MLB, similar to Milwaukee County Stadium or Baltimore Memorial Stadium. 

The Doors Experience: People are Strange- Live and In Concert

From The Doors Experience

People Are Strange, that could really sum up Jim Morrison and The Doors. Jim Morrison the vocalist, who for at least a 2-3 year period was almost always seen in public in his famous and stylish black leather suit. The man looked like a leather rock god in that leather suit. The black leather jacket, the lambskin and sometimes snakeskin, skin-tight, black leather jeans, that would be called skinny leathers today as far as pants. And of course black and sometimes brown cowboy boots. And his silver concho western belt.

The Lizard King wore his skin-tight leathers and concho to accentuate his crotch (and this is a direct quote) and sometimes brought too much attention because his leather jeans were so tight and he always had his shirt tucked in to his leathers so you that plus his belt sticking out and wore a short leather jacket so again women especially could check out his midsection and rear.

Expect for perhaps the concho belt which is really more a of a western cowboy and straight women look that women like to wear with their denim jeans and look western, Morrison's leather suit and boots today would be very rock and roll. But back in the late 1960s that look on anyone man or woman would look strange. But Jim Morrison being The Lizard King pulled it off to the point that his fans perhaps especially female wanted to his him in that outfit and especially performing in that outfit.

But Morrison just didn't perform in his leather suit. Most of his public appearances he was in his leather suit with concho and cowboy boots. As well as when he was out casually and seen in public. He did his interviews and traveled in that outfit. A big part of being The Lizard King for Jim Morrison was being a leather clad rock god. That seemed strange back then but is very mainstream in rock and roll today and has been for about thirty-five years now.

National Geographic: Breakout- Prison Romance

"Breakout S01E05 :Prison Romance"

From Documentaries

I saw this program I believe in the summer of 2010. And what I got out of this was this woman, who was very attractive, but must of been so lonely and desperate that she would be open to do anything, as long as she found a man that were keep her company and be able to share their lives together. And she found that man who she thought was that guy in prison who was looking for someone to play, to help him do what he wanted to do. Which was to get out of prison and continue with his criminal career.

This episode of Breakout, is like a so-called, reality TV, dating show, or online dating network episode, gone real bad. Where you have two desperate people who don't know each other at all. Where you have a nurse who should know a helluva lot better, then to get involved with a hardcore prison inmate, whose looking at maybe 40 years in prison, before he ever sees the free world legitimately. But desperate people tend to do desperate things and let their desperation call their actions.

NFL Network: NFL 1968- Super Bowl 3- Baltimore Colts vs New York Jets: 'Top 10 Upsets'

Source:NFL- Super Bowl 3 highlights.

"Joe Namath brought swagger to the forefront of the AFL-NFL battle, as he guaranteed the Jets would defeat the highly-favored Baltimore Colts in the third AFL-NFL Championship." 

From the NFL

This is perhaps my favorite time of year, its either the holiday season or the start of summer which for Marylanders is late May, because I love football history, pro football and otherwise and I have a lot of these games, at least the highlights of them in my DVD library. And out of all the games in Baltimore pro football history (whether it's the Colts, Stars, Stallions or Ravens) its this game right here. 

We'll never know this for a fact, but let's say Colts QB John Unitas, who I and a lot of others believe is the great QB of all time, including my father, is healthy for this game, the Colts beat the Jets by the amount that they were favored to. They probably either cover the seventeen point spread or come close to it. 

If John Unitas was healthy and played the whole game, this wouldn't of been the biggest blowout in Super Bowl history. The Jets did have a very good, if not great team in 1968. I'm not taking anything away from them. But just look at the game, look at those two touchdown passes that Colts QB Earl Morral missed, one of them went for an incompletion, the other fell short for an INT, Morrall misses a wide open Jimmy Orr in the end zone for a td pass early in the game.

If John Unitas is healthy and plays the whole game, the Colts in the first half probably up with a couple of scores to take control of the game. But instead go scoreless in the first half, because QB Earl Morrall, misses Jimmy Orr, who was wide-open in the end zone. And then he throws an INT, when they Colts were already in field goal territory.  And then the Colts missed chip chop field goal. We will never know this for sure, but this is the mostly likely outcome, had John Unitas been healthy and played this game.

The Jets played very well but they also got some big breaks, like not having to face the best QB in pro football, until the second half when he wasn't at full strength. And the Colts simply not playing well as they should've and leaving two touchdowns on the field, as well as another touchdown in the second half.

Nobody sings this song better or as well, she actually makes it worth listening to. I've always thought Christmas music was pretty boring before Mariah Carey and saw it as a way to bring the 1950s back to life and return to the world of Leave it To Beaver or Father Knows Best, or whatever show from that era that wan't to use. But Mariah Carey with her incredibly sweet voice and overwhelming adorable presence and her R&B sound, makes Christmas music fun and worth listening to.

Mariah is someone who can make ordinary material sound interesting and great material sound incredible. Because of her delivery, the fact that she writes her own music and produces her own music, there's this strong feeling of realness and genuineness with her that you don't get from other performers and perhaps a lot of other performers. 

All I Want For Christmas, is a great Christmas song which might not sound like much talking about holiday music. But coming from Mariah it sounds like great music because it actually is.
