Learnt a very valuable lesson today. Never strive to know everything or never ask for everything, you may end up getting it. Feeling disgusted now! Nonetheless. As always music was there to comfort me.
I’m not in the mood to write or do anything for that matter. Just uploading a couple of songs that helped me heal today. These belong to my super list of I-CAN-LITEN-TO-THIS-SONG-AT-ANY-GIVEN-POINT-OF-TIME.
I found this when I was searching for something else. This female is a television actor. Revathy Shankaran. Truly creative I must say!
I’ve always loved Kaliash Kher’s songs and music. And no disappointments here. This album is top notch. Brilliant and most mature music. Its Rajasthani Folk fusion and has got some amazing funk bass. Listen to this album on a lazy Sunday evening with some whiskey or wine.
Raah buhaaru, pag pakhaaru, tame nihaaru ji
Pran vaaru, baiyaa daaru, main naa haaru ji……
Ho aye ji maahre chatar sujaan, leego pehchaan
Kaahe bharmaao ji, aao ji, aao ji, aao ji……..
chaandan mein main taku ree, tera sona mukhda
Pyaara pyaara mukhda
Aanchal mein main rakhu ree chanda ka tukda
Aye ji pyaara mukhda
Tu dhare jahaan paav toh muskaye ye dharti….. saiyaa
Oji mahri binti sunlo aan mhare bhagwan
Hame naa sataao ji….. aaoji aaoji aaoji
PS: Thanks Ram. Thanks Sid.
I’ve always maintained this: Mani Ratnam + A R Rahman = Music at its very best. You can just keep listening to them over and over again. Right from Roja to Guru, their pairing is a killer combo (though Bombay remains my most favourite).
After a lonnnnggg time I listened to this brilliantly picturized, amazingly sung song called Chandralekha from the movie Thiruda Thiruda. Here’s the song. Listen to the way she says Konjam Mirigham.. Ah! Woowwww!!!
Where is Anupama (the singer) by the way???? Someone please ask her to come back.
I smsed this to all my metal head pals the moment I came outta the theatre and I tell you all (??) the same:
IF YOU ARE A SELF RESPECTING MAIDEN FAN, YOU WILL WATCH THIS ONE.
(Check out the priest in the Columbia tour. Father Iron Maiden has 162 Maiden tattoos on his body and has named his son Steve Harris!! ).
Its a mindfucking piece of a rockumentary! Brilliant!!! MUSTWATCH!!!!! Hail Maidens!!!
Ok, I’m back from an exhilarating trip to Goa. The most awesome days of my life! Life was filled with beaches, Sun, heat, food, wine, cashews, the lighthouses, the fort, the tan and much more. By far, I found Candolim to be a beautiful place! Peaceful and serene. Liked, no, loved everything from the ancestral houses to the church to the Basilica to the cruise.
But one thing. Just couldnt help myself from comparing the Goan roads to the Mumbai muchmuch. Goan roads - no and i mean NO potholes. Just smooth roads. And more importantly NO HONKING. Mumbai roads - God-Save-Me-From-Any-Mishaps-Today types, honking that takes your temper to another level. When’s Mumbai gonna change? For people who ask if I vote, yes I DO. We do behave like responsible citizens, but are we getting anything worthwhile in return? Actually we do. Attacks and more attacks. Bombings, vandalism from our very famous self-proclaimed custodians of culture. DAMN…
@#*$^)($@^_@$_+*(^&! This is exactly how I was feeling when it was time for me to come back to Mumbai.
PS: Clicked the above pic from my cellphone. It looks absolutely WOWWW!
I can listen to this song at any given point during the day. Its a killer combination of music by AR Rahman who has put soul into the already beautiful poem Suttum Vizhi by Mahakavi Bharatiyaar and who better than Haribhai to sing it!!! Im getting goosebumps. Here you go:
Guess this one was released a year back and Im already cursing myself for not having bought it earlier…. Heart Full of Holes, Punish The Monkey, Secondary Waltz, err… I dont know which one is the best… U looking for some soothing, delicate guitar work? Search no further, KILL TO GET CRIMSON is what u need.. Go get it.
Its like “Oh my God, the worst has happened!”.. After a two month stay in another country (the country being called the US of A), all a woman can ask for from her man is a warm hug, a i-missed-u-so-much kinda kiss, and many bags, shoes, chocolates, perfumes, cosmetics n all… I got all of these except for the hugs n kisses… When I saw him at the airport, my heart was thumping mighty hard.. I was like “here he comes”… N he did… The man who I want to spend the rest of my life with… I was full of mush…
Suddenly I noticed that he had all his attention towards something (someone) else. Then I saw her.. All sleek, slim n amazingly beautiful and wrapped in my hubby’s arms! Seductress! Lets face it, I AM YET TO SEE ANYTHING THAT CAN BEAT HER BEAUTY!… Ram had all his eyes, hands, ears, nose, tummy, EVERYTHING just for her… Here I was, waving like a maniac saying “Its me, its me, dont u recognize me?”… One look at me n he says “Hey, meet my muse”…
Shattered, battered and jealous… Thats what I feel these days… Oh BTW, u wanna see how she looks like? Like this: 
They call her Fender Stratocaster. Saturdays n Sundays were so much fun before she came into Ram’s life… Now its MORE FUN!! About 3-4 continuous hours of jamming sessions.. But the only hitch is Im not allowed to touch the Fendy.. Coz of the warning that Ive been given “U want to avoid any unpleasant conversation with me, DO NOT COME NEAR HER”.. Now its back to Metallica… Bye people…
