SOUL Music

Nostalgia. It crept its way into my heart after a short chat with an old friend today. All that was ever said about time never felt truer. Its a cold evening and as I am sipping into my evening cup of chai and listening to some of my favorite numbers, I feel like talking about all those songs of our times I love. My companions through the ups and downs of life. Hard days were made so much easier. Un-expressable pain was suddenly expressed as I would sing along. In joy, sadness, loneliness, distraught and celebration alike. Music stood by always and that is one constant in life we all can place our bets on!
Someday by MLTR.It made the three years of separation bearable, lonely days liveable!I remember listening to this one number over and over again as I would commute to work. Everyday!
Romeo&Juliet.Its a song I share with a dear friend .It’s OUR song.We hummed along dedicating it to some period of both our lives. The humour,pain and the love that comes pouring out of this number is indescribable! The drive to work would be oh so bland without Mark Knoffler serenading our blues away !Thank God for him!!
Aerosmith,Bryan Adams,Bon Jovi,John Denver,U2,Fools Garden-Lived through my college days devouring all of their numbers.
Black eyed peas has the power to lift up my mood anyday,anywhere!!
Whigfield,Aqua,No Mercy,Boyzone,Backstreet Boys,Britney Spears,Sonu Nigam,Alisha Chinoy-What fun would school be without them around to pep up silly birthday parties and get togethers? Saving up to buy their cassettes would be high on all of our agendas.And if one found a remix with all our favourite numbers in it,jackpot!!
These are the ones that come to mind at once.Ofcourse the list is endless!On that note let me get back to my current song.And in case you are wondering,Its Summer Wine by Ville Valo.
Long live Music!!
