I liked a lot of The Doors' music, but never understood the overhyped mythos
of Jim Morrison—his lyrics and voice fall short of the "greatness" category that
most people I know would place them.

Denis Leary uses this epitaph of Morrison in his comedy routine:

"Jim Morrison -- I'm drunk, I'm nobody. I'm drunk, I'm famous. I'm drunk, I'm dead."

Kinda harsh, but not too far off-target IMHO
