Memories of music

I love music ...... there is a song for every special moment in my life....it may not be playing out there but its there in my head.....and when I hear that song I get transported to that era....

Let me for example take songs that I associate with IIM B......

"allah ke bande"....start of term 1.....C block seniors playing it all day....confusion....enthusiasm.....challenges.....

"koi kahe" is a very private song I share with vibhor....we believed every word of it for both of us and shared that special feeling of having cracked and rocked IIM B :)

"Koi toh ho" from chupke se reminds me of the time right after summers....the raw high of getting the DB summers.....unexpectedly cracking it....yeah I'm a stud kinda feeling

Then there is "Solitude" from Karunesh.....Fanaah......lonely moments at the insti....heart aches....these songs so beautifully capture that phase.....

boom boom....apex days....L2 and life is so beautiful kinda feeling.....

o podu flashes the image of a dancing jeeves......dancing in max enthu .....wat a beautiful person.....wat a song :)))

Yeah a lot of them are about people.....that thing you do = sugi....
californication and kandisa = sid.......
Kawa Kawa = we dancing around ali
.........any satya song or ghati number = we doin ghaati dancing


Tara Jala reminds me of a time when I really really wanted to achieve....a lost kinda feeling at times....

Kal Ho Na Ho is for the summers itself...Singapore...Samrat Ghosh...DB......figuring what life is about

All of swades songs remind me of germany....thats where i was when it got released......cycling in sub zero temperatures wiht the laptop blasting these songs away.....

And of course "naina milke"....Saathiya....the coorg trip with speaking tree...... :))))

And aaj jaane ki zid na karo......reminds me of Biplab....

Jats the way would remind any IIM B guy of Sameer Mahandru, the impeccable presi that we had.....

Its the time to disco reminds me of this whole studs gang of apachhu, andy and pankaj who'd set the dance floor on fire.....

and hawa hawa reminds me of andy....he'd FREAK on it....totally totally freak........

And then jumma chumma....the song when we expressed the sheer frustration of our apex......Gattu and me pounding away at the floor as if it was Rambo.....

Chori Chori reminds me of saket....i dont know why...saket neel matta and the whole gang.....no clue why......

And of course there are many many private songs that remind me of tender intimate moments.....songs at L2...I wanna break free.....sweet child of mine.........

And the L2 songs that we felt as they played....its my life.....in the end it doesnt even matter.....pink floyd.....all of that......

And of course Maaeri....the song that would send you in wonderment.....complete wonderment of what the fuck is happening in my life.....

Shakira's Whenever Wherever reminds me of our seniors too....the song stopped playing when they left.....

The chadthi jawani song reminds me of when these NIFT babes had come and Chery forced me to dance with them (which in retrospect was not that bad an idea.....)

Nitin swanhey music reminds me of the time when I was slogging away at the business when the rest of the B school was muggin away for placements.....it represents the disconnect i felt at that time.....


Maar Gayo re....gabru.....dil le gayi kudi....chunri chunri...dupatta baimaan re.....all the remixes...each of these songs captures a feeling, an era that's almost impossible to create.....

unless of course you play the song itself :)
