Jose Feliciano - Light My Fire (1968)

[@Dottydewinter3397]

He seems to sing from his soul and when he does it touches my soul..This song takes me way back to being a young girl of around 13 and i heard him singing this and i just so wanted to be grown up and go and dance with a boy and see the stars and be in love...honest to god even now when i hear this i kind of shiver as im back all those years..50 odd years or so now lol,but truly he takes my breath away and im young and beautiful and carefree again..just wonderful...xxx🙏👍💞🇬🇧💖👋🙂

[@harrychalcraft9711]

It saddens me that this time is gone and what we have now, I always felt like I was born in the wrong time.

Nobody Can Sing this like him.... Epic

trash

[@PerSjm]

Let’s hope so…

[@seansullivan7928]

In my opinion he should keep his mouth shut

[@JonnySoho-e3q]

Such a beautiful face that he never saw. A gift from above...

[@cathystruska1558]

My father and I watched him on Ed Sullivan in 1968. Perhaps one of the greatest vocal and cover. I like the Doors, in fact, I really the Doors. But Jose makes this His song. What a memory...TJ STRUSKA

[@sadietravels6213]

Many hits from this man. His version of California Dreaming is fantastic.

[@mogadon7]

Check out - Jose Feliciano - Every Breath You Take (Sting in audience).

[@lilybond6485]

That song, that voice. WOW !

[@NolalanD]

His timbre is so incredibly pure and unique.

[@tonyruiz2390]

I remember hearing this on Saturday morning when my dad and me doing yard work

[@Dano54100]

Soul and Swing a kick of funk Jose was a phenomenal player in his own style

[@helengrabovac769]

I was a college student when I first heard Jose Feliciano. A fan ever since. What memories!

[@michaelblake7406]

Jose was so talented, such a great artists in his prime.

[@daybrd916]

This was on Midnight Special show 1973 where he also presented two songs of his new great LP "Compartments", hope to find videos of these, "Simple Song" and especlally the great song "Compartments"

[@bluewendigo672]

Morrison approved this one definitely. To much feelings into that fire.

HAPPY 79TH BIRTHDAY JOSÉ MONTSERRATE FELICIANO GARCIA "JOSÉ FELICIANO" (SEPTEMBER 10, 2024)

[@ScottALaFollette]

Jose Feliciano always showing a high degree of skill and flare, complete and humanly perfect. A consummate performer, always acknowledged the audience, his fellow performers, and in this particular case the venue and its promoters. A class act. Mucho Gracias José. 🪄💫✨⭐️🌟💪👍👏🙌

[@I_Am_Become_Light]

So sweet !!!

[@dennislopez6500]

Jose was blacklisted after performing his fantastic rendition of The Spangled Banner in 1968.

[@kevingoins9858]

Not for long!

[@shawnbruce6934]

Why?

[@AdrianDeVore]

​@@shawnbruce6934 He did his own interpretation of The Star Spangled Banner instead of singing it in its original style. Unfortunately, people went ballistic over his version.

[@ScottALaFollette]

Did not know this. Was it recorded? Is there a way that we can listen - see it now? Today and in recent years, the Star-Spangled Banner is frequently “stylized” by performers to varying degrees of success and or failure. I’d venture to say that Jose‘s “interpretation” of Francis Scott Keys poem, turned national anthem was not disrespectful in anyway. 🫡🇺🇸💪👍

[@norbertolasanta1210]

But later make the same decision Jose was a innovator and factor to change the world.

[@pedroamaral5940]

Incrível

[@felixfrey1191]

Aiiiii!! Pragatan!!!!!

[@BOOTBOSS1]

Funny thing about this used to think the Doors version was hands down better but over the years I'm starting to realize what a great job Jose did here and with the other version so overplayed now prefer this one.

[@ChalkyWhite1]

When I was 3 I remember singing 'come on mamma wipe my bum' to this song when I was finished on the loo pmsl.

[@antofrat9955]

Bisouus de paris on taime hate de te revoir sur scene

[@Thevolumex]

best version of Light My Fire

[@FormulaProg]

It’s great but that’s not possible. The instrumental from the original is one of the best pieces of music ever recorded. This version lacks that.

[@chrisbetz4670]

It honestly is

[@chrisbetz4670]

@formula carl. Extremely valid point

[@bushmaster2936]

This isn't the best version even by Jose'. I love both Jose' and the Doors, but they almost seem to be two different songs altogether. The first time I ever heard Jose's version was on an AM transistor radio very late at night, could even have been the wee hours of the morning as we were camping out at the time. Fell in love with it on the spot. Never even associated it with The Doors version, and I still don't. : ) I give Jose' full credit for his interpretation of this song though. Happy Holidays to all ; )

[@JoHeim-q6v]

I totally agree

[@toddmcmahan5582]

Wow

[@nereidamatoscolon]

2024 ❤❤❤❤❤❤

loved this song so much. Prefer it to the Doors version. Sailed up and down one summer with this song playing.

Thanks Jim Morrison to make Jose Did your Song 100 times better...

[@redhead2376]

Did he have an hits that he wrote himself?

[@myyoutube887]

Sonny Show

[@sejrec56]

Now who recorded it first Jose’ or Stevie Wonder?

[@tonyruiz2390]

Who really sing this Him or the Doors

[@OmenOfficial]

Jim Morrison will always be the best

[@OmenOfficial]

@@chiefxx8259 definitely not, not in a trillion years. Jose copied the song, no talent.

[@OmenOfficial]

@@chiefxx8259 agree, not saying this version is bad, I prefer the Doors, just listening to this intro and seeing that date July 73’ makes u think Jim had been dead for 2 years already and still would’ve been in his 20’s. Very sad but good intro

[@chazmann108]

Insane talent here; constant vocal key changes without a pause....like it's nothing. Remember when the Doors were singing it in 1967 with 'Season of the Witch' and Jim Morrison was everywhere with this song. But when Jose showed us how it's done on a 12 string acoustic!

There is not one single person stoned in the building

[@davidt8438]

Why are videographers of musicians the worst in the world. They never shoot the person playing the interesting part and if they do they don’t show the technique. If there’s a guitar solo they show the guys face. If there’s a drum part they show the singer looking down. They certainly don’t know the song being played because they never anticipate the part coming up.
