The Crystal Ship
"The Crystal Ship" is a song by American rock band the Doors, from their 1967 debut album ''The Doors'', and the B-side of the number-one hit single "Light My Fire". It was composed as a love song to Jim Morrison's first serious girlfriend, Mary Werbelow, shortly after their relationship ended. The song is inspired by the poem ''The Crystal Cabinet'' by William Blake. It is one of many of Morrison's songs inspired by Blake’s poetry. The song borrows from elements from baroque music. The lyrics in the opening verse resembles a conventional love song, while the later verses are vague in intention and contain more challenging imagery. A music video was later compiled from footage of the band performing on ''American Bandstand'', coupled with film of Morrison and Pamela Courson at Kern River, near Bakersfield, California. Lyrics Morrison's lyrics are often deliberately vague, and this, coupled with the song's dreamlike atmosphere, has led to speculation as to the meaning of "The ...
