The clutter of songs you reminisced shows the down slide journey of Indian music over the decades! Sigh:(
-
Rahul@ trust me this is just the tip of the iceberg……if I were to chronicle the debacle, I’d have to dedicate an entire new blog to it.
-
You get what you deserve. Cinesongs have become tapori tarranums just as English language is getting twists and turns in the hands of texters. Literature is loiterature, verse is worse and prose is crass.
Must be global warming that is causing downslide all around. -
you have very well captured the one side of music industry.. love it.. and laughed at it.. yes some songs were atrocious. the other side of the coin is that in this chaos too still there were some good songs like Qayamat se Qayamat tak, Jo jeeta vohi Sikander, Aashiqui.. and many more.. And yes that was the age where the pop and ghazals were simultaneously existing on the music Scene. Today alteast these two genres have died.

Shows how worse the lyrical industry is doing today! 🙁
You have shared it very nicely though. I liked how expressive the small funny lines with pics are ! -
Hahaha what a hilarious post! 😀
Hehe but the irony is all that you mentioned are so true. The music industry in our country has taken a downward turn, where anything nonsensical can become a hippy and top the chartbusters! It’s just insane !
-
hahaha… really jus 2 good…. n of course true… jus hoping it never turns out d way dis blog ends…. killing d fantasies of d good old fairytales v all love…. 😉
-
This was something that I always wondered about..Gone are the days of evergreen bolly songs..these days its just sheilas and munni ruling the town
you got a regular follower here -
Loved this blog post.The melody era is over though some songs still make us happy.I believe,we are westernising rapidly only in terms of sex,crudeness etal.
-
Omg, this is hilarious!!! 😀 very, very well written! Your captions for those Disney movies are awesome. Following your blog now, keep writing!
-
@Guru Uncle..hate to say it, but yes you are so darn right! Just wish this could all turn back around
@Dinesh…Yes of course, there have been some great songs and lyrics and they exist even today….but it’s just how low can we go that bothers me….we manage to surprise ourselves all the time
-
@Kinara…I am so worried we won’t have any musical inclinations for the generations to come.
@Confused Soul….Hola girl! Yup it is insane….and there seems to be no respite
-
@Noella….at the rate we are going and judging the cartoon network translations….this pretty much could be reality soon.
@The Madrasi….love your name BTW :)Thanks for dropping by and staying. And yes, not a fan of Sheila or Munni for that matter!
-
@Vasu…The sad bit is that there is so little of the good music to go around. Was watching some kid go Ballistic over Nicki Minhaj on Ellen Degeneres Show….and the lyrics were ballistic to say the least…..and here was an 8 yr old…rattling them off!!!! Sigh!
@A….Thanks so much………..but hope this fairy tale thingi don’t come true
-
Can’t imagine the kind of emotional wreckage you are capable of unleashing on young, innocent kids!
Please, please stay a mile away from them…..Btw every time Bolton sings Can I touch you..I giggle and blush a beetroot red 😀
-
@Purba Yeh ilzaam bebuniyaad hai mi’lard……..the child is the father of man or something like that na???
Waise Bolton Maharaj ki jai ho!
-
U sure are Musically inclined, bonus is u r lyrically inclined too :).
-
@DR Gracias! and yup, I know! 😀
-
well, the best thing is you don’t have to follow all bollywood songs…. There are many excellent songs with meaningful lyrics and melodious music even in today’s hindi movies. Undoubtedly there are more crap things these days, But who cares, like the old proverb “Races for the courses” They are producing what appeals to most of the people, and that is crap of course, no doubt….
BTW a very well written beautiful post….:)
-
@Irfanuddin completely agree but as I mentioned earlier too….how low is too low…? This music I am sure does not appeal to many….yet it thrives. Creativity can be a double edged sword 🙂
-
main tera tota…tu meri maina…you brought back those days when humming along was no less dangerous than uttering the f word. and there was seemingly harmless tip tip barasa paani….until someone pointed out the ewww aspect of it 🙂
-
Blogwati G, the decline has definitely set in. Innuendo has replaced the nuanced.
And so your dire prediction about the fairy tales doesn’t seem too implausible ;(.
Enjoyed reading this post :))
-
You sure are musically inclined…But its so true…whatever you have written here!
Recent music…*sigh*
But at least some good music is still being made in Bengali…
You got yourself a follower! 🙂
-
@Raindrop……Oh yeah! The gems of days gone by…:)
@ Rajrupa…welcome! Good music is definitely alive or I would have been deaf by now….but it is the other side that scares me…and hence this post 🙂
@Soniaji..thank you, you are too kind 🙂
-
I agree we have had some horrible songs in the past but then if you look at the bollywood music scene today, we have a mixed bag. Loads of new talent and many a new perspective as well 🙂
-
Yup, today we do have a mixed bag but the lyrics of some are horrendous. I can’t call them lyrics!
-
-
nice compilation…and really funny…Himesh and euthanasia, Classic!
You should probably submit it to a movie blog too like Filmistani! 🙂
-
Nah! I am good here….besides the least famous these guys are the better 😛

OH MY GOD! I think you picked up almost every absurd dhabba to music, except that while you were writing this, the industry was busy with churning out more-Imported kamariya and Second hand jawani, anyone?
And the worst is when I try to teach my little one “Om bhoor bhawa swaha….” she asks me to recite Tinku Jiya or Chinta ta ta instead…PHEW!
A sad state of musical affairs….. Michael Bolton though did that song deliberately to fire imaginations and I loved it too 😀
-
Suruchi, I hear you! And oh dear lord that chintu jiya!
Michael Bolton toh I am still trying to figure his muse 😛
