Many humans have written many songs. But Tangerine Dream's "Love on a Real Train" is among the finest of all. Much to my anger and unlike "Rydeen", there are only a handful of cover versions, remakes, and what-have-yous of "LoaRT" on YouTube. But I've collected some for you, in case you, too, are obsessed with this duh-duh-duhduhduh-duh-duh-duhduh-duh ditty as I am. And if you don't know what all the lovin' and trainin' is about, check it out below.
Warning: NSFW moment in the last clip. At least for your troubles, it shows you why the song has its name.
I once did my own cover with beatboxing. Would've included it above but Embedr don't do Flickr.
Also in the "Sounds like Love but isn't" dept., check out Delia Gonzalez & Gavin Russom's "Black Spring" (MP3 download there).

I saw Tangerine Dream perform live at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles. They let off smoke bombs and shot lasters through the smoke that vibrated with the electronic sounds coming from the bank of synthesizers they had on stage. At the time, a unique experience. Been buying all their albums ever since.
Sounds like that was a FANTASTIC show! Wowow. They're really prolific, altho it's fair to say it's mainly Edgar now with collaborators.
try Steve Reich's 'Music for 18 Musicians' part 6…about 30 minutes into the album
