    Imo, this song, & this whole album , is their masterpiece...especially this crazy epic love song to a particular city (as has been said the “woman” in this song IS los angeles, & this is jim’s ode to it)...this was on their last album, the whole album is hard rocking & bluesy af....they went out with a bang....it bugs me a little to see all the photos of young, beautiful, pretty boy jim, because when they recorded this (about 8, or so months before jim’s death) jim was a bit bloated from all the beer & whiskey & food & was HEAVILY bearded, he just a big, grizzly, poet’s beard, or something, he looked like paul cezanne the french post-impressionist painter...and jim would soon move to france, (where, unbeknownst to him, he would die),, so, anyway, this song was kind of a good-bye to los angeles....lastly, , awesome reaction, i knew youd love it...i knew youd either stand up & walk around, or come close to doing so, haha

    I was born in L. A. (Hawthorne, to be exact), and while I have lived most of my life in New York...Los Angeles is in my blood. Cities are a lot like women, complex, and multi-faceted, with something that draws you toward them (for better or worse), and once you leave, they are a part of you forever. Anyway...that's my take. As always...superb and insightful reaction. Keep on risin'...✌😎

    mr mojo risin is an anagram of the lead singers name.... but its also an old blues metaphor, for getting ones sexual energy going. & its also become symbolic in amer vernacular, esp in sports or financial competition is building up momentum.... as much as morrison read & how much he was into symbolic density w/ word usage, my guess is hes combining all 3. & since the song is about LA and the culture itself, hes reflecting the ebb and flow & boom & bust of how our amer culture cyclically shifts & evolves. it also draws out a cinematic large scape view.... his ability to create density of meaning into what at first glance may seem simple, was unmatched in popular music. he could write like a frost, crane or blake in using sparse symbolist technique. then bead the meanings together in the particular work to reflect a much deeper perspective & view on a theme.... he does it on riders too.

    I am the city of Light. Only the one in France. lol
    The Doors were super big when I was in grade school. I liked some of their songs but, never got that much into them. But, this one was a favorite.
    Of the late 60s icons I am a fan of Miss Janis Joplin. Oh, that lady can sing some blues....and rip your heart out with it.
    I listened to rock n roll since the beginning of the Beatles in first grade. My mom was one of those parents who was not appalled by rock and let my brother and me grow up listening to it with records and our transistor radios.
    When I became a teen buying albums and getting heavy into music my band was Led Zeppelin. They were music and still are.
    But, that is not to take away from the Doors who were a fun and rebellious band when it was very daring to be so.

    What is considered the City of Light is Paris, where Jim passed. LA is the City of Night, because the underlying sleasiness tends to become emboldened iat night and reveal itself.

    10:43 The question could refer to anyone but, "lucky little lady," is catchy and meaningful. A "lucky little person," doesn't have the same ring to it. Some synonyms that might have worked instead of lady: mortal, being, spirit. "Lady," is two syllables.
