These are my 25 favorite Doors' songs! The difficulty in selecting these was an extremely formidable task. However, with perseverance I was able to narrow it down to these musical masterpieces! While my opinion is generally regarded as reflecting that of most Doors' fans, I do realize that there are those who may not agree with my selections (Heretics!). So please participate and send in your top five and they will be dutifully tabulated and posted below my selections.

These are various recordings of my top 5 doors songs. Although they are the same songs, they are unique in presentation.

One of the few things this page lacks is to properly represent one of the truly magical centrepieces of a Doors live show. Virtually every performance contained a certain medley that astounded its' audience to no end. These medleys usually were comprised of the numbers 'Alabama Song', 'Back Door Man', and '5 to 1'. However, true to form, the Doors never performed any medley the same, and inserted many different songs to give the number a whole different flavour. Below, are a variety of acts from different venues that are very pleasing to one's ears. This section will always be updated as new material surfaces.
