I gotta say this : I'm a die-hard DOORS fan , so I hate everyone trying to be THE LIZARD KING even if honoring him , however in this video Le Bon as I see in here is singing from the bottom of his heart and the guitar playing is suitable for the occassion , so GOOD JOB .
I was ready to blast Duran Duran for this but I have to admit...This was great and the fact he immediately thanks Jim shows that he's a class act. Bravo!
I was never into Duran Duran but I love this version of one of the more overlooked songs by The Doors. Simon LeBon's voice is remarkably similar to Jim Morrison's.
simon proves hes the most emotive crooner of his era... as good as g michael is at ballads, would he be able to bring the needed sonorous soul & subtly that this song demands???... morrison was heavily influenced by sinatra & u can hear that line drawn to simon also... he gets the haunt & the sensouness into this that was morrison's signature... he did also w/in his own stylistic touches... very well done & not easy to pull off.
I'm not a huge Duran Duran fan or anything...but some people don't realize these guys were the biggest thing in pop/rock music in the 80s for a hot minute.
fantastic cover...superb vocal. Le Bon is most certainly one the best live vocalists in the world today and despite the mighty Duran being teenybop pretty boys, they have proven and earned the credibility and respect that they should have had from the start of their career. 11/10 for the mighty Duran Duran.
Excelente gracias totales por este tributo a una de las mejores bandas que ha existidio The Doors se escuchan muy bien Durán Duran los felicito muy buenos ellos también 🙏 namaste 🙏🙌
thanks for the message response... yep duran duran always could play and always did write their own material and produce a lot too...i woulld be right in saying there are a lot of people who like them now in contrast to the 80s as they were labelled pretty boys but duran duran were style and substance. id go as far to say today they will be one of the best live bands in the world.
Bravo Bravo Bravo !!! I love musicians and poets as well as other artists, such gentle and kind souls Duran Duran , Soap & Skin and other artists honor The Doors and Jim and I thank you all ...
reply to the hater's... see it this way.. have you ever sung or whistled to a song.. he is just listening to it and enjoying him self thus singing outloud.... he enjoyed him self leave him alone.
The version isn't bad, but what I appreciate most is that Simon does his best to recreate an atmosphere that's impossible to recreate. I see him singing from the heart and that's amazing, I never thought the crystal ship would come out of Duran Duran. Googgle translate.
I see that this song is quite polarizing. I have to say that Simon does a pretty extraordinary job channeling Jim Morrison. I do think that classics have to be approached with caution, but in my opinion, Simon's performance is pretty amazing!
I love this and heard this before original...of course JM fans will be precious about their classic song and rightly so but at least Simon's love for the Doors means this is coming from his heart.
I recall in the 80's Reading several times, that Simon Le Bon was a big fan of The Doors. I think he did a fine job with the Crystal Ship. It has a rather gothic, haunting feel to it thats beautiful. I think jim would have approved.
i love this cover !and i adore jim morrison , is so sad that he is no longer with us , a waste ! simon is so hot here and i love warren work too ! thanks for posting
for what its worth they win back alot of respect for doing a fine job on what is a very sacret doors song indeed good on you guys for having the guts to give a song like this a real go sounds more real than anything they did in their careers
Thank You is a covers album by Duran Duran released in April 1995, their follow-up to 1993's Duran Duran (The Wedding Album). It did well on the charts (reaching number 19 on the Billboard 200),but was received very negatively by critics ,..... and i love this !!!
My absolute favourite band covering a song I love by my second favourite band! I mean, what is not to love? Anyway, for those who are not so sure about this version, have a listen to the studio recording on the Thank You album with the rest of the band playing. This live cover was something where only Simon and Warren were present. It is very different from the Thank You version.
Well, I favourited this one because they were brave for doing it; they actually did take acid once or twice; and they had that popadelic-certain-something that Jim also had. There. Enjoy before you die.
Wow, always like DD but never thought he could pull this off. excellent, the only thing missing was Jim grittiness but the rest more than made up for it.
Massive Doors fan…. And absolutely enjoyed this. He done it justice 👌🏼🔥
💝
What a beautiful cover

that was soliddd
Never thought that Simon LeBon would be a fan of Jim Morrison but here we are.
A heart-felt effort. I like how Simon pays tribute to Jim at the end for this great song. :)
I was never into Duran Duran but I love this version of one of the more overlooked songs by The Doors. Simon LeBon's voice is remarkably similar to Jim Morrison's.
Wow, how have I not heard/seen this til now, great rendition
Best cover of crystal ship I've heard thus far
Duran duran perfect
Doors-Worthy cover, really nice, you can hear the emotion coming through in this days voice, and he's a great singer too.
Love it! Simon has a wonderful voice.
Fucksake!He and the band done this very well!...That whistle was haunting too!🎼🎸👌🏴
Didn't know DD liked the doors... they kept surprising me
Wow! Wasn’t expecting that! Nice cover.
Wow, proving again that Duran Duran isn't just a fluff bang. RIP Jim & THANK YOU DD!
🇬🇧🇺🇸💐🎤🚪🛳️
Well! You learn something every day. I had no idea that Duran Duran had covered this!! It's brilliant. I'm sure Jim would approve:)
dunno why you think duran duran woulndt do justice. of course they are proffessionals at music creation and performance with deep trough of talent.
simon proves hes the most emotive crooner of his era... as good as g michael is at ballads, would he be able to bring the needed sonorous soul & subtly that this song demands???... morrison was heavily influenced by sinatra & u can hear that line drawn to simon also... he gets the haunt & the sensouness into this that was morrison's signature... he did also w/in his own stylistic touches... very well done & not easy to pull off.
Well, Simon has his own charms, as well as talent, above all he is s* xy in his own way. ✨
I'm not a huge Duran Duran fan or anything...but some people don't realize these guys were the biggest thing in pop/rock music in the 80s for a hot minute.
The Doors... the best band ever!!!!!!
i just melt with this version , simon looks so so in to it , so much passion , and warren is the best always !
Wow! Really amazed, beautiful rendition
Great way with the whistle too
amazing cover, respect for DD
Decent cover, the whistling sounds like a Spaghetti Western soundtrack. :)
Sin duda, magnífica interpretación no puedo dejar de escuchar, 😍😍😍
La canción más bella de The Doors, sin duda... muy buen cover...
fantastic cover...superb vocal. Le Bon is most certainly one the best live vocalists in the world today and despite the mighty Duran being teenybop pretty boys, they have proven and earned the credibility and respect that they should have had from the start of their career. 11/10 for the mighty Duran Duran.
Very good cover, and I'm glad he doesn't sound exactly like Jim. That's not what covers are meant for.
I agree. I’m very particular about this song, but this is amazing and I love it.
He actually couldn’t if he tried. Jim was in very good voice when it was recorded. Nice whistle though!
jim would be proud well done
Excellent cover by Duran Duran. I think Jim would've liked it. :)
Not a fan of DD, but props for being bold enough to take on a Doors song. They did it justice.
Sorprendida quedé, no sabía de la existencia de este cover, excelente 🖤
Esta en el disco de Duran Duran Thank you
Dope song!!!
not bad. one singer and one guitarist!

i love this cover , awesome warren , and such a amazing simon's effort from his heart , love it
I appreciate Simon's appreciation of this song. It tends to highlight the quality of Jim never to be duplicated.

Killer cover...!
Great cover.
What an amazing cover sang by duran duran first time ever hearing this song
Awesome cover of a beautiful song. Love it.

No one like Jim Morrison. He was the one.
😈

i so love this cover !!!!!!!! awesome !
Wow...get it Simon! sounds great! i'm impressed.
I recall in the 80's Reading several times, that Simon Le Bon was a big fan of The Doors. I think he did a fine job with the Crystal Ship. It has a rather gothic, haunting feel to it thats beautiful. I think jim would have approved.
