They sound really similar to me, in content and style. (Or is this really obvious to everyone and I'm just late.)

A cute animated steam engine puffed along to the beat. Great show, responsible for releasing a lot of feel-good endorphins in its television audience.

A few months ago the "Soul Train" tribute to Riperton, from September 15, 1979, was re-run as part of "The Best of Soul Train"; apparently that episode features one of the few instances of an artist actually singing on the show, not lip-synching -- in this case it was Stevie Wonder singing "Perfect Angel."<br><br>Phoebe Snow's song "If I Can Just Get Through the Night," from 1989, is just as good as "Poetry Man," in my opinion. I've loved that song since I first heard it on the radio at the age of 13.

The best marimba solo ever recorded. <br><br>Makes you wonder what else that guy did in the band, though. Can't just wait around for the next marimba solo.
