Radio Mirchi - Really Hot ??

Wednesday last week was a pretty big day for Hyderabad and its FM music lovers, the city got its first private FM Music Channel - Radio Mirchi. With all the big hype that was created around the launch - posters, banners and print media, I was shocked at the kind of music that was doled out on it all day - sad unheard of telugu songs !! I seriously had my doubts about all what I had heard from friends in other cities about the channel. Idi chala hot guru - sounded like real crap to me. Is the channel missing a trick ? Whom are they trying to target as an audience ? The youth or the people in the villages ??

But then came Saturday night and I happend to switch back to the channel - hoping to get some good telugu songs atleast. But was I in for a surprise ... I was listening to Club Mirchi and must hand it to DJ Aryan. Amazing music - made me feel so much better about the channel. Great club music and all of a sudden I felt that other than for the booze there I was in a club !! I stayed up till early morning listening to the songs.

Wake up in the morning and tune in to the channel .. and viola ... we back to the same drab !! Mirchi .. to be hot u need to have more programs like Club Mirchi, playing the songs that people want to hear. DJ Aryan, you have a fan in me for sure !! Keep up the good work :)

The Fairer Sex !!

I believe that, in general, women are saner than men – try a couple of these to prove the point:

  • Chances of seeing a women who pay good money to stand in an outdoor stadium on a freezing December day wearing nothing on the upper halves of their bodies except paint is next to impossible !!

  • Without males, there would be no such sport as professional lawn-mower racing.

  • Most men do not spend a lot of time fretting about the size of their pants. Many men wear jeans with the size printed right on the back label shrieking out ``Howdy! My butt is the size of a Federal Express truck!''

With women though, the situation is different, when a woman shops for clothes her primary objective is to purchase clothes that are the size she wore when she was 19 years old.  Worse still is the position the man lands in when his wife asks him the trick question “Am I fat?”, sad situation for the man – he is screwed either ways.  If he answers ''yes,'' she'll be angry because he's saying that she's fat, and if he answers ''no,'' she'll be angry because he's obviously lying.  

A quick pointer on how u can become rich .. soon .. Forget Rich Dad Poor Dad .. Start a women's clothing store called ''SIZE 2,'' in which all garments had labels with the words ''SIZE 2.'' I bet you'd sell clothes like crazy. You'd probably get rich, and you could retire, maybe take up some philanthropic activity to benefit humanity. I'm thinking here of professional lawn-mower racing.

Cheers !!

Song Recomendation - Swallowed by the Sea

Well I am one of those types who never listen to songs at random from albums, just keep listening to songs that I have heard or seen on Radio / TV over and over again. The other day I was listening to the X & Y CD from Coldplay and came across this amazing song - Swallowed by the Sea. Amazing lyrics, call it the kinda mood that I am in but I just am in love with the song.

The song is a wee bit warped, soft - I forwarded the song to one of my friends in Office just wanting to know what her reactions to the "uncool" to the world kinda song was - and surprisingly she liked the song. I thought this is the kewlest part of the song -

And I could write a song
A hundred miles long
Well that's where I belong
And you belong with me


Just cant get the song out of my head ... pure amazing !!

Cheers

Along came an Angel !!

As you move on in life, you get thru these experiences when you feel that you cant rage the battle yourself. The last couple of weeks in my life had been one in the similar mode. I had friends talking to me and it wud kinda help. Work had been another aspect which got me to think out of thinking about the problem. But there was always this niggle in me that got me to think, and go back. A point came when talking to friends just wouldnt help and the pain just kept getting worse.

One friend in particular was of great help, but talking just wasnt serving the purpose. But there was a certain light at the end of the tunnel for me. On the day when the pain was the worst, I got the help that I wanted. Something that dint just listen to me when I talked, but something that took the pain away. Got my mind of the whole matter !!

Just a small way to thank you for what you did ... Thanks Angel :)
