Craigslist (song)
"Craigslist" is a song and single by "Weird Al" Yankovic. It is a style parody of The Doors, and contains lyrics inspired by postings at the online classified advertising service, Craigslist.〔 Yankovic described the idea of the song coming about thinking how it would be "anachronistically weird" for Jim Morrison to scream about Craigslist. Yankovic opted to use Craigslist as an example of something big in both the popular culture and his own life, and spent time exploring its listings to compose the lyrics.〔 The song was released shortly after the closure of the Michael John Anderson (Craigslist Killer) case, a factor Yankovic considered "unfortunate timing".〔
Former Doors keyboardist Ray Manzarek was enlisted to recreate the music style for the song.〔(Yankovic's video of the 2009 recording session )〕
The single was the first of four new singles that were being released as part of the ''Internet Leaks'' EP. Craigslist was released digitally on June 16, 2009.
==Composition==
The various parts of the song were taken from various Doors songs, particularly from their first, self-titled album. As a "style parody", the song does not take directly from any single Doors song, but Yankovic transposed parts from various songs and combined them into what became "Craigslist". The intro guitar and organ riffs are similar to "Soul Kitchen" and "When the Music's Over", while the verses sound like "Twentieth Century Fox". And, there are discrete sections in the guitar solo similar to "When the Music's Over", "The End" and "Light My Fire". And the "snotty barista" section is a softer parody of the Oedipus complex from "The End".
