Imagination Rain is the first song by Steve Zuckerman that appeared on Sesame Street during the early 1970s. In the accompanying animated film, a boy comes home during a rainy day, his bedroom turns into a jungle, and he escapes from some ferocious animals by floating on a pillow over a body of water. During the 1990s, a new recording of the song performed by Richie Havens was synched to the original animation.
