Writing/Playing songs in under 3min. They have so many 3min or less songs in their catalog.

I've been listening to their Perceptions 6 CD/6 DVD box set the last couple of weeks and it is truly amazing.
I recommend joining Borders and using a coupon on this box set to save $$$

    L.A. Woman pushes 8 minutes and probably my favorite
    If a man speaks in a forest and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?

    Strange Days for me!

    Unhappy Girl and My Eyes Have Seen You are two of my favorite Doors songs.

    So many good songs in 3 minutes or less!

    The Crystal Ship
    Peace Frog
    Indian Summer
    Love Street
    Wintertime Love
    Spanish Caravan
    People Are Strange
    My Eyes Have Seen You


    And many, many others.

    But, most of my favourite Doors songs are over 7:00.
    “Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you’ve got about a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies — ‘God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.’” - Kurt Vonnegut

    I"ve always loved "Take It As it Comes"

    However, i think the Beatles still win here
    “I know this song so well, I can smoke a cigarette, have a drink, brush my teeth, take a shit, and mow the lawn while singing it. But I'll only be doing a couple of those things during this version.”

    Love the Doors and love Ed with the Doors. He's the only one who could do it IMO. They are the first band I "loved". I'm still jealous that my hubby got to see them live numerous times. :)
    "I'd rather be with an animal." "Those that can be trusted can change their mind." "The in between is mine." "If I don't lose control, explore and not explode, a preternatural other plane with the power to maintain." "Yeh this is living." "Life is what you make it."
