The Point! is the sixth studio album by American songwriter and musician Harry Nilsson, released in 1971. It was accompanied by an animated film adaptation directed by Fred Wolf, which aired a few weeks after the album’s release. Its lead single, “Me and My Arrow”, peaked at number 34 on the Billboard Hot 100.
The Point! is a fable that tells the story of a boy named Oblio, the only round-headed person in the Pointed Village, where by law everyone and everything must have a point. Nilsson explained his inspiration for The Point!: “I was on acid and I looked at the trees and I realized that they all came to points, and the little branches came to points, and the houses came to point. I thought, ‘Oh! Everything has a point, and if it doesn’t, then there’s a point to it.’ “

The Point! is the soundtrack to a cartoon feature originally aired on ABC TV in 1971. Especially at this stage of his career, Harry Nilsson was uniquely suited for writing and recording children’s music, given his sweet melodicism and love of whimsy. As it happens, The Point! worked out better than anyone could have expected, not just because ‘Everything’s Got ‘Em,’ ‘Me and My Arrow,’ ‘Think About Your Troubles,’ and ‘Are You Sleeping?’ are songs strong enough to have been on a proper Nilsson record. There’s also an intangible quality to this record, a warmth and generosity that really wasn’t on any of his other albums, quite possibly because his humor is never sardonic or reliant on in-jokes. It’s gentle and loving, as is the music. The tale is fantastical enough to be of interest to children (and the moral is strong enough to reassure them and their parents), but the songs and music are so strong that the album continues to be a source of wonder, even as those children become adults –AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
