The Doors “The Crystal Ship“ American Bandstand, the ABC Television Center, Los Angeles. Broadcast 22 July 1967 Video URL: “The Crystal Ship“ was composed as a love song to Jim Morrison’s first serious girlfriend, Mary Werbelow, shortly after their romance ended. The meaning of the song has been debated. The title borrows from the 12th-century Irish Lebor na hUidre (Book of the Dun Cow) manuscript. The lyrics in the opening verse resembles a conventional love song, while the later verses are vague in intention and contain more challenging imagery.
