Something weird happened today, something that deserves a mention here. A realization like never before, the energy within that exploded, convincing me that sure, music flows in my blood!
We needed some regular grocery and dad was away [He usually does the shopping]. I chose the job [as occasionally I do], but this time I decided to take along a company, my i pod. I left home, closed the door behind me, turned on the player and then magic struck! Music flooded into my ears, connecting me to the abyss, the universal language of music. It ran through my very veins. My knees gave up, I couldn't move an inch, simply sat on the stairs, answering the call of kutulu....
After the song ended, it came to my realization that all this while I had been blocking the entrance to my building! I came back to conscious, reduced the volume and resumed my job.
I am usually among the more aware customers. It takes me time to shop, maybe because I check all details, compare the brands, expiry dates, weight:price ratio, take all my time to make the best choice, just because I don't want to regret later. Today, I chose haphazard stuff, somethings that we didn't even need [thank-god my mum didn't realize that]. Just paid the bills, walked out the supermarket and walked into the dugdhalay [milk and allied products]. Just said "ek pav dahi", picked up the packet, paid some money and walked off. Later the uncle came running behind me to make me realize that I forgot to take the change. He then uttered something that made me go "huh?", and finally do away with my headphones. Turns out, it was the first time in three years [the span of time the store has been open in my neighborhood], that I hadn't checked the amount of curd weighed in the electronic balance, or said the "thank-you" after taking the change. I said the sarcastic "kind of you to notice" and smiled to myself. He looked very pleased with himself, well, i walked off.
After returning home, i just handed over my purchases to mum and walked straight to the terrace to listen to some-more music. My mum told me later, this was weird because, I didn't narrate the details of my interesting venture and how in every-way I was 'the smart shopper'.
It sounds weird but it is true. After turning my player on, i feel that sense of gratification, satiety, that doing nothing else does; Its like, the energy from music, completes me.
Conclusion. I am never taking my i pod along. Even if I do, I am never listening to metal.

The most abused songs.
Yea, you read it right. Most used and abused songs. Here are my favorite five with reasons..
No.5--->MY HEART WILL GO ON. Yes, its a beautiful romantic song. But hello!! its not the only love song!!! n then people sing it, to their beloved....with their respective accents....n the tunes go absolutely in any direction. You hear this song all over the place on valentines day, n obviously, all their hearts go on....n on n onnnnn....................
No.4--->YAARON. The one by KK. The song has a special place in my heart. But reality shows simply keep insulting the original version.... over n over n over again. They get the order of the lyrics wrong...arghhhh.......
No.3--->REMIXES---> I dont mind them, some remixes are so good that i perfer them above the originals. And some people really know how to do justice with the songs while keeping the originality n also showing your creativity. But the cheap versions with semiclad girls n excessive use of guitars in music vedios are sure disgusting, arent they??
No.2---> PAL. KK again. This was the first song that i cried for. Indian idol version simply ruined it. WHY! why in the name of merlin did they manage to get the rights?? why did they rape the song so pathetically, with pointless harmonies, 12-15 mediocre singers with flashy clothes, happydent smiles n aweful locations...Ive started hating the song now, Blame the "idols".
No.1---> CHALTE CHALTE!!!!!!! This song has been gang-raped n murdered..Every school last day, every college farewell, every reality show eviction, everytime some1 leaves..from anywhere to anywhere...This song is a ritual! If kishore kumar happens to hear any of the versions of his classic, he wud simply turn about n commit suicide! I feel like crucifying every bastard who sings this song, removing his intestine and making him hang to the tallest tower with it tied to his throat! But then, all my wishes aint fullfilled!!!!!
well, writing still in progress..new posts soon. n uptill then, Kabhi allllvidaa nah kehnaa......
