Harking back to my uni years again! And it’s another tune Lil Princess has hooked onto, thankfully without really knowing what it means! TLC with No Scrubs!
Did you hear the track written in response? No Pigeons by Sporty Thievz!
And a little Bhangra from the Eastern side! Another number that got the dancefloor packed when it came out! Bolo Ta Ra Ra Ra by Daler Mehndi!
Today I am posting a song that just fills me with joy every time I hear it. I have to clap along to it and sing out loud! I defy anyone to not smile at least when they hear it!
Happy by Pharrell Williams.
And for my Eastern entry, it is a song from the film Yaadon Ki Barat, about love… again, but I just love this song! Chura Liya. It was rereleased in the 90’s by DJ Bally Sagoo and was made accessible to many new listeners from the western side at that time. I remember English friends singing along to it!
Throwback to the 90’s and my university years. I loved this tune by Aaliyah (RIP) and even went through the whole bandana phase… ! Back and Forth.
Yes, I’m afraid that was me!
And there was a beautiful Bollywood film called Bombay released around this time, which had haunting music by AR Rehman. My best friend and I used to sit and sing this song lots together! Kehna Hi Kya.
