I beat .....2 songs

While driving back from New York (a 15 hr ride by the way) a song by R&B/Soul group Loose Ends came on the radio. The song was "Hangin on a String". That in turn made me think of another song which used the same beat called  "The running Song" by Amber Sunshower. I always liked both songs but never really stopped to think which was better, not that it really matters but what do you think.?

Loose Ends - Hanging on a string.
