    “Five to one” was the approximate ratio of whites to blacks, young to old, non-pot smokers to pot smokers in the US in 1967. It was also the amount of Vietnamese to American soldiers in Vietnam. Jim Morrison was so drunk when he recorded “Five to One” (1968), he needed help on when to begin singing. If you listen closely, you can hear someone from the studio staff hushing “One more time” before the lead vocalist started the first verse. On bootlegs of live recordings, Morrison included the phrase “f—ked up” in the spoken word section at the end. He swore a lot at live concerts, but the studio LPs were always curse-free. The part of the tune about “Shadows of the evening” is an adaptation of the Victorian-era hymn “Shadows of the Evening,” whose first verse reads : “Now the day is over Night is drawing nigh Shadows of the evening Steal across the sky” The line “No one here gets out alive” was used for a Jim Morrison biography (1980) by authors Jerry Hopkins and Danny Sugarman. Robby Krieger taped a version of “Five To One” with Marilyn Manson for the 2000 Doors tribute album “Stoned Immaculate.” 💜🚪💙 You have not been forgotten, forever young James Douglas Morrison (1943 - 1971)… 🌹
