Val Kilmer and his music.

Val Kilmer, one of the greatest humans ever, he has been Batman, Jim Morrison and Iceman. He is also an avid musician. This does seem a mite unfair as he is already perfect. As part of his audition for 'The Doors' he sent Oliver Stone a video of him playing Doors songs. I would give anything to see that tape. Imagine The Val sitting in his living room just chilling and playing the Doors? Rocks my universe.

The remaining members of The Doors were present for the filming of the movie, they are understood to have noted that they had trouble distinguishing Kilmer's voice from the voice of their dead bandmate. Upon hearing Kilmer's version of The End for the movie Robby Krieger said 'I'm really glad they've got The End, we never got  a recording of that live with Jim and now we've got it'. High praise indeed.

This was not his first performance as a musician in a film. He played a generic rock and roll star in the spoof comedy 'Top Secret!' he went on to release an album under the character name Nick Rivers after the movie.

Enjoy this very fresh faced performance from the man himself!

Kilmer also has a myspace page where has released some of his own music. It is pretty laid back folk rock, it has a country feel to it. Almost like a cross between Neil Young and Neil Diamond with a country kick.
