I mentioned 'Light my fire', only because it was then playing in my pc, and also the fact that it was written before being composed. Otherwise there are so many to learn from, so many with different style. I know 'Light my fire' was catchy, but sometimes the whole message is supposed to be catchy or cool or haunting instead of the hook itself, and that is when song becomes tough to figure out. Like 'Walking in Memphis' by 'Marc Cohn'.
