Lived The Life Of The Past,,, Musically !!!

I do not know how long it has been that I last blogged but it definitely feels good bringing myself here again, doing this. I should have been here way before, when a lot of things happened making my life look stupored. Life has its ending episodes for the new ones to start. Yes, I have had my new episodes begun and I am trying hard to make them look a lot more fruitful when looked back at, in future. Yet again, each chapter of an episode has its own flavour and aura, the essence of which cannot be so easily forgotten. This brings us to live the life of the past. Last night was one of those instances to me. Thanks to my tuning into the Red Fm, Big FM, Radio Ctiy, Rainbow... I realized I had special memories attached to every song ( am sure most of us do) and the radio stations had got it right, playing them all. What an ambivalent moment that was..
To start with, it was Britney Spears with "Hit me Baby one more time" which sure did hit me hard with time when I was about 14, that I religiously started listening to English hits with she being my favourite. There was also " Show me meaning of being lonely" by the Backstreet Boys, the song that also appeared on the album of their greatest hits, the cassette of which I still preserve. Next was Michael Jackson's "They don't really care about us"- my Bro and I went crazy listening to it as kids. It was amazing as to how every song playing reeled all those memories. Moving along, I came across Shania Twain's " I am Alive" which did make me feel a lot like it. I went over to borrow the album from my friend and we would be singing her songs- Ka ching, Forever and for always, I am gonna getcha good, etc.. all the way in class and trips. My tuning never ended as I explored more and more tagging along every chapter of my adolesence. I stumbled at Hotel California by "Eagles" . I remember how hard I wanted to learn it to play on my guitar and till date have'nt perfected! As a matter of fact, never perfected playing my guitar per se! lol. And then came "bhool Ja" by Shaan, the song that always played in stuck up santro and the way we could never get enough of cursing him, of course that "him" would switch from shaan to the player and Vice Versa .The song that did not play unfortunately was " Ooooo Oooo Oooo baby" Talk about it.! The best times singing it. Some of the few ones that fortunately did not play were the lame Hindi songs whose names I thankfully do not remember that were constantly sung by "My" so called Lata Mangeshkars. And to bring back the colour was " Pehli nazar mein" transporting me to Goa and its mind boggling beaches. . Some of my favourites too had to be in this, Flo Rida's "Low", Akon's "Right Now" and some others that palyed in cars creating cacophony.And tinge of something more colourful was "Teri ore" , a beautiful track shared with some of my beautiful friends at a beautiful occassion. "Desi Girl", " Justin timberlake" played were the ones played during workouts at the gym. There were songs, some dedicated to me and some dedicated by me.. and the whole list of the songs with so many instances attached to them seems just never ending. I relish each and every bit of those and continue doing so. Sometimes, You do not have to pay for things that can bring a sense of pleasure and serenity to you and this, I think, is one of the best things about life.
For now, I feel so Exhaustive of my memory as I had been for so long recollecting songs that played.. only if I had them penned down.
Stopping here abruptly, I hope to come back. My blog has been owner deprived and I bear the feeling of guilt for it.
....5:30 P.m. , I am longing for a cup of coffee.
