Jim Morrison the lyricist vs. Jim Morrison the singer

[Guest Ohdistortedsmile1789]

Well, it seems as if most people see Jim as a great poet of some sort. I for one always thought alot of his lyrics were decent but pretty nonsensical as well. I've always loved Jim Morrison for his vocals, and I think he has had a big influence on my voice too (atleast from what I'm told).

[Arnarsson]

Wasn't he just better in both?

I can't answer that question

[Yamisonic]

Jim the singer.

[JONEZY]

Jim the singer/frontman. After he died, people started to notice how great the lyrics were.

the lyricist

an american prayer is an awesome book

he wasn't much of a singer but pretty good at overall vocal content and expression

[Nightrain_Kid]

His tight trousers

I've always dug his words.

But his voice was great as well.

I didn't use the poll.

Morrison's lyrics never affected me as much as some people. He was a good songwriter, but I never thought he was anything too special in that department. His vocals had a bigger impact on me.

Me neither.
