Morrison is often associated with the youth counterculture. As someone who was born in the 21st century, I want to know what type of person he was, to people who were able to witness his era.
It could be anything about him - his influence, his music, his personal life, his relationship, activism, childhood, or the type of person he was, if his musics were popular and was his life tragic, or filled with happiness? I don’t want to hear the Wikipedia summary, I’m interested in what you think as someone who enjoys music.
It seems that being a flawed person comes with the territory of being a genius, especially in the arts
Nope - it doesn’t, but there is a fair amount of overlap.
I’d say it’s more accurate (but still not precisely correct) to say that desiring fame is a reflection of an insecurity - most people who rabidly chase publicity have deep personal flaws (but not all - fame is a price not a reward if you accept fame to enact social change that’s a reasonable exchange… fame for fame’s sake is dumb).
Lots of geniuses aren’t famous and those guys are usually pretty alright. There might be some correlation with some social disorders but we don’t have any good studies on that.
