I don't hate it, only because it's the Doors, but this is a little bit like having the Doors on your stereo while your neighbor plays some second rate disco coming in through your window. I dig it man.... too cool..... LOL |

you forgot to say ... "and with really terrible taste in music." Otherwise, your comment is spot on. This is one of the worst things I've heard on RP. Jim Morrison was not a lounge singer. Puke-tastic. |

That's exactly how I feel too. Thank you for wording it. :) |
| spunkyboy62 (Grand Rapids, MI) | Posted: Apr 17, 2008 - 13:16 It's kind of fun. My volume was turned down and my first thought was Interpol, or someone who sounded like Jim Morrison. Covering the Doors like this is hardly blasphemous. |

LOL ... good one! I think that describes it perfectly. |
| sfListener | Posted: Apr 17, 2008 - 13:14 too much doors today |
| Skiach (Burntisland, Scotland) | Posted: Apr 17, 2008 - 13:13 I love the Thievery Corp and I love the Doors like I love cheese and chocolate ice cream. Both fantastic in their own right but mixed together they are puke inducing! Make it stop. :puke: |

| thatch (Shhh....at work....) | Posted: Apr 17, 2008 - 13:12 The original was a 4, but this makes it a 2. |
| REM (North Vancouver, BC) | Posted: Apr 10, 2008 - 15:13 I thought that this was one of the better tracks on Versions. Was pleasantly surprised to hear it on RP. |

| tnt_thomas (PLEASE! No C&W! - This ain't RodeoParadise!!) | Posted: Apr 10, 2008 - 15:12 MORE Doors???? GAwd, hate his voice. Remix and put in different *&^*&%$# singer!  MUTE!
Can't take more.    |

| atomm73 (Roma) | Posted: Mar 10, 2008 - 03:43 i like this version |
| diazo (high in the northern rockies) | Posted: Feb 14, 2008 - 13:44 This almost makes the Doors sound cool. |
| bigtwistee (Native Texican) | Posted: Feb 14, 2008 - 13:43 This is just wrong on so many levels! Brother Jim is spinning in his grave! |
| smehan55 (Beneath a Carolina blue sky) | Posted: Feb 14, 2008 - 13:42 Dreadful. |

| NickH (Viborg, Denmark) | Posted: Jan 14, 2008 - 02:25 Not many songs make me head for the volume knob but this one does. I also grew up with the Doors and that might be the reason I think this version sucks. However, I also grew up with Abba and the Eurythmics and have heard remixed versions of their songs that I thought were great. |

So do I - I'm astonished at all the sucko-barfo ratings, which has to be the most I've ever seen for a song on RP. Maybe it's folks who know the Doors original who loathe the remix. Luckily I've never heard the original so I can judge this on its own merits. 7 from the Nottingham jury. |
| squibbb | Posted: Dec 13, 2007 - 16:54 Love it! What can I say? |
| babyjuice (NYC) | Posted: Dec 13, 2007 - 16:44 its a cool concept, a nice try, but some things ought not be f*cked with. Can kinda see the club kids groovin on X to this tune. Jim would likely dig that. |
| eman (PDX) | Posted: Dec 13, 2007 - 16:43 3.8...? WTF....? This is great and Yes, I grew up with the Doors...  |
| z11355 | Posted: Dec 13, 2007 - 16:43 This really does not work in any form. How can the 'average' possibly be 3.8? |
| papaman (Downstate New Mexico) | Posted: Dec 06, 2007 - 20:10 If Jim Morrison were alive today he'd be overweight, hair thinning, and would have his own reality TV show, and this would be his great comeback song. 7 Go Jim! |
| rlinsk | Posted: Dec 06, 2007 - 20:09 Omigosh, let's update the Doors to, say, 1985. Bill, why do you punish us so? |
| davezilko (Northern New Jersey) | Posted: Nov 12, 2007 - 07:12 No thanks, the music does not compliment the singing at all - Jim needs the other Doors backing him in this case |

I don't like the doors, really, other than a few songs, so when artists like TC make a doors song tolerable to me, I have to thank them. I would still like this is if was a TC original. |
| MrsAustin (New Hampshire) | Posted: Nov 05, 2007 - 11:45 I hope this goes the way of The Coors version of Fleetwood Mac's 'Dreams', also a 1 on my lowest rated; the suck-o-barfo meter is off the chart on that doozy! |

Thieving from Samuel Johnson: "..both good and original, but the part that is good is not original and the part that is original is not good. " Quite perfect and fitting quote!  |
