…also known as The Soft Parade, from the album of the same name, and the only epic song the Doors did that isn’t worthy of this list, in my opinion. Great song, but a little bit too progressive for its time, or even now for that matter. It’s just outright odd, which in and of itself isn’t bad, but with so many other great ones it doesn’t merit inclusion.

27

Well, I can show you at least 2 dopers who disagree. Not only did The Soft Parade make the following two lists (Which is tough in and of itself with the truncation required to pare it down to six tracks) - but in both cases it was the top (#1) selection:

28
  1. Light My Fire
  2. Touch Me
  3. Hello, I Love You
  4. The Crystal Ship
  5. 20th Century Fox
  6. Soul Kitchen
29
  1. Peace Frog
  2. Wasp
  3. Moonlight Drive
  4. Crystal Ship
  5. Back Door Man
  6. Roadhouse Blues
