Playlist update !

Listing out a few songs i've been listening to for last few days..

1. Neend na aaye - Fuzon : awesome song ! Well written + composed + sung ! Fuzon doles out songs wit a strong classical/sufi base and a pinch of rock. Even without Shafqat Ali as lead singer, these guys give out kickass tracks !

2. Noor-e-khuda - Shankar Mahadevan & Adnan Sami from 'My name is Khan' : just beautiful !

3. Raanjhan yaar di - Agnee for Splitsvilla : what a song ! some kickass rock + folk lyrics + mohan on vocals + koko on guitar. This recipe cant go wrong ! :)

4. Behene de - composed by A R Rehman for 'Raavan' : another typically brilliant A R Rehman song ! Mindblowing lyrics and equally brilliantly sung. 'Intense' is how i would describe it.

5. Mora Piya - Aadesh Shrivastava for god' sake ! This track from 'Rajneeti' has strong classical influence. Of the 3 versions in the album, skip the 'twilight mix'. Trance version is too good to believe. Kavita Seth has worked wonders by her vocals !

6. Bin tere - reprise - Shekhar Ravijiani : from 'i hate LUV stories' : awesome guitar work + very well sung by Shekhar. I dunno who wrote it (prasoon joshi may be ??) but Kinda touches your heart. Give it a listen on a good HT system - has a bit of 'live' feel to it.

More later.

weird ways !

weird the way certain things in life work.

It just happens that you are pretty determined on something, and all it takes is one single moment to bring your determination to crash down, and take you on a totally different path..

i say may be that was the path you would have taken, had you listened to yourself or followed your instinct ! :)
its just that, that someone up there, whacks you on the back of your head and out onto the right path.. and it happens so fast that you never get the time to react to it !

Although I call myself an atheist, such things make me believe that there's someone up there, watching over us - every moment, every move, every thought.. and controlling it so efficiently and remotely that we humans still call ourselves the brainy ones ! :)
