The main reason to succeed was a Morrison’s mysterious lyrics. In addiction to this reason we have to admit that unpredictable behavior of Morrison had also influenced.
As Morrison’s lyrics his death was mysterious too. Nobody knows the death cause but the most accepted version was when Jim and Pam were to their favorite night club, the famous “Rock ‘n’ Roll Circus”. There Pam had ordered pure heroin form from Vietnam. They consume that, but Morrison felt really bad and died of overdose. Morrison died at age 27, the same age as several other famous rock stars. So he was included as member of 27 club (Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Brian Jones of The Rolling Stones, Ron "Pigpen" McKernan, Pete Ham of Badfinger and Kurt Cobain of Nirvana were also included there). Pamela Courson died at the same age.

The last public performance was on 8th December 1970, his 27th birthday when Morrison recorded another poetry session. The tour that they were doing was in order to promote their upcoming album “L.A. Woman”.
More about MorrisonFollowing the recording of L.A. Woman(In April, 1971), Morrison decided to take some time off and moved to Paris with Pamela Courson. He had already visited the city the summer before and seemed interested in moving there to become a writer in exile.
But while he was in Paris, he was again drinking heavily. On June 16, the last known recording of Morrison was made when he befriended two street musicians at a bar and invited them to a studio. That recording was finally released in 1994 on a bootleg CD entitled The Lost Paris Tapes.
