Cigarettes After Sex Cover The Doors

LA dreampop band Cigarettes After Sex just dropped their new "Anna Karenina" single on Partisan Records.  And it features a hazy cover of The Doors classic "The Crystal Ship."  Get it here and check it out below.

Daily Jam - Love Street

Like a whole lot of people before me, i went through a pretty big Doors phase when i was in high school and college before turning and finding them insufferable.  I think i'm back to appreciating them again.  Here's a favorite that got a lot of play in my dorm room freshman year.  Listen to "Love Street" below, our Daily Jam.

Daily Jam - You're Lost Little Girl

I'm in LA right now.  Seems only right that i should listen to some music by The Doors.  Here's "You're Lost Little Girl," our Daily Jam.

Daily Jam - The Crystal Ship

Full disclosure: i've been on vacation the last two weeks.  It's been wonderful, the creeping dread of knowing i have to go back in a few days is hindering my enjoyment.  It's a pickle.  Anyway, here's The Doors with "The Crystal Ship," our Daily Jam.

Daily Jam (October Edition) - People Are Strange

It's highly likely that i heard Echo and The Bunnymen's version of "People Are Strange" before ever hearing the original by The Doors.  I chalk that up to being 8 at the time and absolutely loving "The Lost Boys."  So, here it is, our Daily Jam.

Daily Jam - Touch Me

I like to think that had Jim Morrison not died, he and The Doors would have had a big Las Vegas phase like Elvis.  It would have sounded a lot like "Touch Me."  But bigger.  And Vegas-ier.  Listen below, our Daily Jam.

RIP Ray Manzarek

I have kind of love/hate thing with The Doors, but RIP Ray Manzarek...and i've said it a thousand times, but fuck cancer.
