I vaguely remember "The King of Nothing," but really liked "Hummingbird," especially when the FM stations, which back then actually had personnel who cared about music, would go ahead and play the full version with the intro, which was harmonically neat even at the time, and would be like Mozart compared with the output of today's two chord/song (if you're lucky) wonders. "O hummingbird, mankind has waited for you to come flying along..."

LOL! I remember my sister and her dance class doing an interpretive dance to this song, wearing tie-dyed leotards. Lots of bending and swaying and arm gestures. It was supposed to be so deep!

How about "I'll Play For You" by Seals and Crofts. "Hear the band, hear the band. You can sing and stomp your feet and clap your hands. These few moments -- we're together -- and I'll plaaaaaaay for you."
