Hi Redial: Thanks for posting-- 65 is quite young. My girlfriend at the time had a "supercrush" on Val Kilmer who sang all the songs in the 1991 movie "The Doors": youtu.be

BTW: I read a story that Roger Daltrey, still singing at 81, announced on stage in-between songs that he is slowly going deaf and blind.

Also liked him as Jim Morrison,

Pretty sure I first saw him as Madmartigan in Willow:
