this where it all started for me the first west coast band I fell in love with and so still original
“Hello, I Love You”, The Doors, 1968.
This song went to #1 on the US and Canada singles charts. It was also the first single from the Doors to chart in the UK (peaking at #15). More importantly, the album it was from Waiting for the Sun also peaked at #1 in the US. For it to hit #1 on both the singles and albums charts it must have been doing something right. 😉
