I was there in October 1989. Walking into the Perelachaise is like walking into 19th century. The place was shrouded in fog which gave it an eerie air. The cemetery is huge. Literally a different world. There were a few people huddled around the shrine. The smell of hash wafted in the air. All I remember is a young girl sitting there with a world-weary air. Probably stoned and probably pondering the mystery of life/death. I will never know who she was or where she came from. Maybe she is a mom somewhere with her kids now grown up. I cannot know. This is the mystery of life. But here I was at the grave of the doomed rock star/poet of the 1960's. Here he lay this Rimbaud of the music world once an unfettered spirit who became a modern romantic figure. Eventually his life was subdued by the tyranny of reality which is unforgiving to those who dont conform or accept its diktats. But his spirit and his music still survive after all those years with its siren call 🏛🎸🎭
Thinking about starting a savings account to go in 2 years for the 50th anniversary.. So crazy its really been 50 years already since the Doors were at their prime... Time is so crazy, i wasn't even alive and it seems insane its really been 50 years
Jim's 78th Birthday is coming up wow hard to believe. Rest easy sweet angel there will never be another like you . I was just turned a 13 a little before he passed my older siblings introduced me to the Doors .
Soul kitchen was my favorite from the first album but dont forget the band 'LOVE'(Bryan Maclean,Arthur Lee,Johnny Echols) who where the first band on the sunset strip(multi racial group)who influenced Jim and every one else and where instrumental in getting the Doors signed.
Thank You all four seriously amazing musicians, two home on Earth two home in their Eternal legacy Blessyou all so much beautiful music made at a pivitol time in US history, sooooo much love, your songs are Timeless,. And very Heart me moving, I was born in 64, and my Dad and Mom listened to your music, it is Forever in my DNA beautiful humans...all of you
"Very good video, too bad it's very expensive to go from Brazil to Perlachecer in Paris, so it's good to watch this kind of video. Hugs from the Brazilians there, long live The Doors, one of the greatest bands in history."
Bel video veramente!sono davvero contenta di vedere che ancora a tanta tanta gente,giovani e anziani, piace ancora Jim!!vedere questi video mi commuove anche se non sono lì.. Rip in peace Jim♥️♥️♥️
Thank you ever so much for shooting me in your video.I was the one wearing the Leather's and the white Poet's shirt.I would just like to thank Susan and Christine for sending me the video link.
50 years coming up July 3, 2021. His estate is releasing all his poetry, journals and lyrics with some drawings. I preordered mine for June 8, can’t wait! #LongLiveLizardKing 🦎
sad....so sad. the weeping off camera got me. if you look back, say the beatles, Paul and John were envious and egotiscal. remember after John died, Paul wanted to change in credit songwriting be McCartney/Lennon instead of Lennon/McCartney. These guys Ray,John and Robby geninuely love and respected Jim. Fuck sake, I miss these guys
Thank you Dean for making and sharing this video! It was a really great day! I had the chance to perform an a capella version of our song "Jim" at the grave that day - amazing! I posted the video of the studio version here. I hope you don't mind!
And somewhere in France 🇫🇷 lies the tomb of the Le Breteuil family and therein lies interred the mortal remains of Jean de Breteuil. who succumbed in Morocco 🇲🇦 circa 1971, 22ans. His grave is private and largely unvisited. But he too played a part of that drama back in July 1971, which has now become part of rock folklore
People are wrong.... Jim Morriso was not an Angel, nor a Devil, Jim Morrison was a poet, a human with strength, weakness, subtle and loud and in his life he did not walk, he ran as fast as possible to the very edge of a constant, never changing.....death. But man, The Doors shined a bright light that all can see for a short time, probably one of the brightest lights in rock history.
Far out.. Jim is alive in spirit and in music. When the music is over, turn out the lights ✌ RIP Jim @ Ray .Got to see Dave Brock an Wild Child many times at the Whiskey A Go Go an other places. Have made a special video of them. Sure miss those fun days.
Thank Arthur Lee who insisted that Elektra sign The Doors. Both Love and The Doors were quintessential LA bands, even though San Francisco was center of great psych bands. RIP Jim Morrison and Arthur Lee.
the doors, siempre estara en nuestros recuerdos, mientras existan personas que quieran recordar lo realmente escencial...q es...sabes cual es la respuesta :J
When the music is over ... ... Turn out the lights ... ... 🎶🎶🎵🎶 🖤 🇫🇷 🇺🇸 I was 1 block away from Jim's apartment on July 3, 1971 👽 😱 He died in Rock n Roll Circus Paris carried back to his apartment and put in warm bathtub to keep his body warm to disguise the time of death
@@michaelserby7697 yeah i believe you he probably did an unknown substance in that bar or something far more potent that he thought and just died from it due to his previous excessive alcohol consumption which had him more prone to heart problems
This year , 2021 , there could be a 50th year tribute on July 3rd. Likely, John and Robbie have been asked. Sadly , we are now living in a dystopian one world police state; where ''war is peace'' , freedom is slavery and ignorance is strength . So do not count on it. Likely, if it is tried to do this July, the gathering will averted before it can start ! So we should be happy they did this one 10 years ago.
@@raspberrysherbet5285 you need to use the brain box. _The pandemic_ explains why some people weren't there, but as you rightly said, as did I, Europe gets lots of tourists in the summer. And in pandemic time, people were traveling a lot in the summer because it was the first reprieve from the constant illness. A lot of naive people billed the summer of 2021 as the end of the pandemic, airlines were overloaded they had so many passengers... the pandemic didn't stop anyone _in the summer._ If anything, tourism was up
@@raspberrysherbet5285 it doesn't change the fact that airplanes were overbooked as in, more people than they could accommodate were trying to travel......... Doesn't matter if 10x as many people wanted to cross the Atlantic, they didn't have a plane for them.............................

I paid Jim a visit at his resting place... interesting and somewhat disappointing that the bust was gone... there was a gate around his plot so you couldn't get up close...
Et la tête du journaliste Hervé Muller (travaillait pour le magazine) qui les a vu débarquer. Après Jim s'est effrondé ivre mort sur le lit d'Hervé et sa compagne. Hervé Muller a eu la chance de vivre les derniers mois de Jim Morrison.
I read Cher paid for his place in cemetery when bill was due ,, Bless her ,,RIP JIM if u r there ,, who really knows but u ,pam n the 1 Dr that said he was dead idk myself
Rip geniuses Jim and Ray. The Doors are the greatest band of all time.
Sparkes669 the doors were the best band to me growing up, but there is one band better than The doors, Pink Floyd.
The Rolling Stones are the greatest rock and roll band ever.
Gary Pace is that really rock? Just kidding. Is a matter of taste, I’ll prefer LED Zeppelin instead. Rolling Stones are ok. Not great.
The Beatles are the best , hands down!
with the Sparks the most important in my life
Ray Manzarak, the best pianist that ever will live
Liberace!
Indeed he was one of the greatest musicians of his generation, and one of the best keyboardist in rock history! R.I.P Ray
Hmmm... what about Chopin?
Dave Greenfield
Rest in peace, Jim. It's hard to believe you've been gone 48 years.
RIP rock n roll... Ok... I kid... It's on life support
now over fifty!
It’s official. 50 years, The Doors in memory have survived. Rest In Peace Ray and Jim. God bless Robby and John. May their image live to 100!
RAY PASSED? THE ONE WHOS SMOKING?
a true legend, he will never be forgotten, no matter how many years later..
It feels so new Jimmy's music after 50 years still today wow
Ray is an awesome story teller!!!!!
My father was with Jim the night before he died so there everyone 😔 😢
I still like to think that Ray still thought since he didn't see Jim's dead body he was still out in the world living life to the fullest.
This made me cry. Love The Doors!

I wonder what Jim would think of all this? RIP Jim 🌹 Pam 🌹 Ray 🌹

4 parts of a diamond...well said, John!
Most underrated Doors songs: ‘
‘’Hyacinth House & End Of The Night’’
DQ10 Don't forget Peace Frog (Robbie kills it with his guitar licks)
The river knows
The Crystal Ship and Not To Touch The Earth

Ricardo Da Cruz Thanks, Ricardo. It was a great time in Paris in 2011. Maybe we will see you there for the 50th anniversary? I hope so :)
RIP Jim Morrison. It's gonna be 50 years since his death this July🙏🌹🌹
And I can't find one good video about the 50 yr. at his gravesite.
So much win in an ambiance of loss, RIP Ray and Jim this video had my eyes watering
Thanks Dean for the finest documentary. Truly one of a kind ... been proud you've included my video.
Vesitei o Jim e chorei como uma criança... e MT emocionante.. vou voltar porque é uma celebração ao meu ÍDOLO.. Te Amo JIM!!
Também fui lá no dia 7 de julho agora, em 2019. Um experiência incrível, recomendo para todos que gostam de um bom rock e vão para Paris.

Not invited to woodstock...???
merci
Thank Arthur Lee who insisted that Elektra sign The Doors. Both Love and The Doors were quintessential LA bands, even though San Francisco was center of great psych bands. RIP Jim Morrison and Arthur Lee.
Now, San Francisco is the center of homeless, mentally ill, America-hating leftists. Time has not been friendly to both of those cities.
Great documentary man! Really Amazing !
He was my idol
Really cool the band members visit jims grave where is the drummer though
. 😎🤘 R.I.P. JIMMBOOOO😎🤘
It's too bad that Jim Morrison died at such a young age. Now, perhaps, Jim Morrison is at peace. RIP Jim Morrison.
Beautiful day for it.
See you there, jim.
magic
Ray and Robby they set fire to the grave to warm themselves from the cold hahahaha
wonderfull,hi jimbo
Little did Ray know he had 2 years left to live....
The grave most visited in Pére Lachaise cemetery . What could Jim think about it ?

What do you suppose all those crosses on Ray’s black shirt are supposed to indicate? He was always very deliberate in all of his statements.
2:03 ''An American Prayer'' and ''Melody Nelson'' by Serge Gainsbourg ! God ... Fabulous !

Un año más sin jim !!!!viva el rey lagarto
By in saying fuck the doors to people like me were something else!
In which cafe did they play The Crystal Ship, this like the End is such a psychedelic song and my favourite!
Been there. Bought a map across the street and went to see Jim - before the fence went up!
I assume the fence went up to stop the graffiti and whiskey bottles?
teachin' the young Europeans!😮😊
