memories....

I never thought I'd be one who could relate to the achy breaky heart feeling of these old melodies...

The poetry is beautiful and the sentiments too tender and situations too unfair...

When younger, I would sit with my elders and soak up the melodies as they listened to these... every now and then I 'd catch a moist eye and a look that spoke of a memory that still haunted... I see knowing glances exchanged as a heartbroken soul recognized another and yet I never actually "felt" the music...

Never until today-

I listened to a Lata-Mukesh CD today and felt...sigh... felt the music...

It's fantastic. My all time favorite Indain song along with “In Ankhon Ki Masti” and “Akhyon ke Jharokon”. Watched the movie when I was a young boy. Have been enthralled by the melody ever since. Sublime.
