The Doors Top 5 songs

[InTheIttaBenaHotSun]

What are your top 5 songs from The Doors???

I don't know what my top 5 are but I know what the #1 is in the top 5.

Peace Frog is by far my favorite Doors song OAT. Was at The South End in Memphis in March/April of '90 or '91 and Joe Joe broke into it on the keyboard and we danced on the tables to it....17!! that was a great show and a great time to be apart of. Carol Ray from Cold Water....where are you now a days?????

 

[mcdawg22]

Love me some Peace Frog. It is definitely number 1 for me as well. The other four would be Alabama Song, LA Woman, Riders on the Storm, People are Strange.

96 Tears**

Their #1 performance was in '68 at the Hollywood Bowl. What's scary is that Ray and John were as talented at their craft as Jim was. Jim gets most of the limelight though.

 

[Mayor of Little London]

Roadhouse Blues

 

[CochiseCowbell]

Spanish Caravan, Break on Through, Riders on the Storm, L.A. Woman, Roadhouse Blues.

The End. What a sad day that was. Sure wish Jackson would bring back another kick *** classic rock station that does not repeat the same group of songs over and over and over (looking at you Z106).

Man this is a tough one. There’s so many that are tough to classify as songs....it’s JM talking poetry over some fantastic music, i.e. Severed Garden.

1. Peace Frog
2. Roadhouse Blues
3. LA Woman
4. The End
5. Riders on the Storm

Best Song on The Doors Movie soundtrack not by The Doors - Heroin by Velvet Underground. It’s a fantastically done song about a horrible addiction. I hate to love it.

 

[Cousin Jeffrey]

Off the top of my head, and in no particular order:
LA Woman
Roadhouse Blues
Peace Frog
Soul Kitchen
When the Music’s Over

 

[Bobby Ricigliano]

I like the WASP.

 

[Bobby Ricigliano]

That is a great song.

 

[Ralph Cramden]

Five to one is another good one

 

[Beerbully]

Light My Fire was the most commercial Doors song, but it kicked the door open (pardon the pun). Still, for a popular song, it had that dark, foreboding vibe The Doors would come to be known for. My top 5 goes like this:

LA Woman
Roadhouse Blues
Riders on the Storm
Light My Fire
Alabama Song

 

[MSUDOG24]

No Hello I Love You? ...... when she moves my brain scrams out this song

Riders on the storm

I thought this was the non Boomer board? Doors? and CCR for that matter?

 

[DawgsOnTheWing]

Some of my friends had told me the station was changing formats, but I didn’t believe them. Went to bed with radio on tuned to ZZQ. Woke up a little before 2am just in time to hear The End. Then one of the old DJs, (not sure if it was Gary, Perez or who) came on and said WJDX-FM/WZZQ signing off, then static. Turned radio off, went back to sleep, woke up next morning, turned radio on and heard country music. Was a sad day.

Oh sorry that's by a real band.. no love for the doors but I do have a mild respect respect Peace Frog... mild

 

[Rogershep]

LA Woman
Roadhouse Blues
Light My Fire
Not to touch the earth
The End

 

[AgronDawg]

No love for Gloria?

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

LA Woman is the best

Riders on the Storm
The End
Hello I Love You
Love Me Two Times

I would have to say I really can't pick just five. LA Woman is my favorite there is no way I could limit it to five. The only thing I feel a failure as a Father is not making any of my kids love the Doors as much as I do.
