Right now I am listening to ...

[Ashenden]

Rabindranath Tagore/Gulzar/Shantanu Moitra - Gulzar in conversation with Tagore

Powerful, yet sweet. Complex, yet accessible. Speedy, yet relaxing! These guys know how to make the opposites meet.

Some CDs from Acoustic Portrait. Lovely music, wonderful recording.

A very silly song that only Asha can make listenable. But pay attention to the drums and other instruments - something special.

Kishor Kumar and Asha Bhosale are my favourite. Love their voice. Even if they sing with no music it is pleasure.

There are couple of melodious song absolutely ruined silly lyrics or some by sudden injection of silly sound.
Hee Hee What has 'Zingalala Zingalala huu huu' and 'Zim zim zeem zeem zeem taara' got to do with music.

Some nice tune totally destroyed. I cant even write what is in between shalimar song something like 'maka chaka chpau naka kusuk taka maka na' LOL
May be the story/producer/whim demanded it.

But thanks to other beautiful songs those stalwart singers and music directors gave us.
Regards

Yes such gimmicks might bring in more listeners then, but ensure that the song ages very fast and doesn’t become a classic.
