The Doors bagi aku umpama The Beatles, bezanya mereka ada pemain keyboard, Ray Manzarek (sebenarnya ada lagi perbezaan ketara antara mereka seperti pemain gitar, Robby Krieger yang cukup best kalau dia main slide, tapi entry ni untuk Ray Manzarek). Ya, Jim Morrison boleh dikatakan sebagai frontman terbaik sepanjang zaman dengan aksi liar dan lirik puitisnya, tetapi bakat Jim Morrison mungkin tak akan kemana-mana andaikata dia tak bertemu dan menyanyi depan Ray Manzarek..
Doors ada satu lagu famous fire ke hapa ntah.
