11. Light my Fire was by Jim Morrison and the Doors

 

Or do you mean Morrison wrote if before Feliciano recorded it.

 

The Drifters.

 

Funny, but some of the 60's songs have been redone and I like the redone version much better than the original.

Like, You Really Got Me by the Kinks, was redone by Van Halen. Van Halen really "rocks" this song. Just like, Mony, Mony by Tommy James & The Shondells was redone by Billy Idol. Billy Idol really rocks this song...…..absolutely love his version!

Now, absolutely nobody can redo Born To Be Wild by Steppenwolf!

 

I am adding 70s music to this thread. Personally I viewed this decade as the worst in living memory for music.
There were some exceptions; ABBA, Bee Gees, Simon & Garfunkel, The Eagles, David Bowie.
