Talaash - Music Review

Delhi Belly belongs to that small list of movies I’ve seen in the past 2 years where the music played an equally important role as the film. A man named Ram Sampath came into the limelight giving us the unforgettable Bhaag DK Bose ( Why don’t people like Saigal Blues is beyond me ) and once again he teams up with Aamir Khan in his upcoming film titled Talaash – The Answer Lies Within.

The album kicks off with Muskaanein Jhooti Hai. Picturised on Kareena, Muskaanein belongs to the girl singing in the bar category of song. It’ll take some time for the song to grow on you. Not that bad a number. But give me Tinka Tinka and Kaisi Yeh Paheli over this one any day. That said , I must listen to Tinka Tinka again ( love that song ).

My expectations went up a notch when I read Vishal Dadlani’s name besides Jee Le Zara. Ever since heard Madari from Coke Studio (listen to it at least thrice a day), I have fallen in love with the Pentagram singer’s voice. And I’m saying this without any bias but Jee Le Zara has taken my love for the man to a higher notch. If there’s a song that you listen  again and again after hearing it for the first time , Jee Le Zara is that song. Kya Gaaya Hai Boss , Maan Gaye .

For the first 40 seconds , Jiya Lage Na gave me an indication that the song would be a slow number . But from that moment on , Sampath takes the song to another level completely. Good vocals by Sona Mohapatra and Ravindra Upadhyay . Pay closer attention to the lyrics and I liked the song even more . For some , Jiya Lage Na would seem orthodox and in some cases loud . The thing I'm looking forward to most here is the picturization in the movie. 

Going by the trailers of the movie , Talaash belongs to the crime mystery and thriller genre. Using the lyrics that reiterate this , Sampath gives us Hona Hai Kya . A ' telling the theme of the movie ' kind of song. If that's what the music director was paid to do , he's done well I must say.

I knew Laakh Duniya Kahe would be a song I'll end up liking just after hearing the first two lines. And with each passing second of this number , you'll love it even more. Mr Ram Sampath ( who has sung the song ) , why don't you come out with more music . I should be asking this to the directors and producers who make the movies for there is a man waiting to be explored. A good romantic track after a long time. Mr. Sampath , wherever you are . A very big thank you for this song.

The last song in the album is the remix version of Jee Le Zara . I was still in awe of the original number. This number will play in a lot of gym's and parties ( I DJ at both venues ) . Given a choice between the two , I'd pick the former. 

Just 6 songs , but boy is the music of Taalash good . Ram Sampath has just earned himself a new fan. If I had to get over the music of Jab Tak Hai Jaan , Talaash was just the thing I needed.

Songs that you will download - All of them .

Songs that you will download and tell others to listen to - Laakh Duniya Kahe , Jee Le Zara . 

I'm going with 3.5/5 for the music of Aamir Khan's upcoming movie . These 6 songs have surely created the hype/buzz that the movie needed. Good Job , Mr Ram . 

Jab Tak Hai Jaan - Music Review

Jab Tak Hai Jaan

The words gap and return have a lot to do with Yash Raj Film’s latest flick called Jab Tak Hai Jaan. It marks Yash Chopra’s return to direction after 8 long years (his last being Veer Zara), the king of romance Shahrukh Khan returns after playing a mafia kingpin in Farhan Khan’s Don 2. But since this is a music review, I cannot ignore the magician from Madras who makes his return after Ek Deewana Tha (in case you thought it was Rockstar). As soon as I saw the trailer for this movie in the cinemas it wasn’t SRK, Katrina or the locations that are so well known in YR Films. It was Rahman, who I knew would be the prime reason why I’ll shell out money for Jab Tak Hai Jaan. Realizing that Gulzar has teamed up with Rahman, my expectations were even higher. 

Considering Rahman was back after such a long time the wait to hear the first song of his latest movie was killing me. Challa starts off well with the guitar strumming but as soon as I heard the voice I said ‘Hey wait a minute, isn’t this the Bulla ki Jaana dude singing? ‘. Like most of his songs, Challa too is sung in Punjabi. I didn’t understand the lyrics (looked them up later). For a song that I heard the first time Challa didn’t disappoint. But I didn’t get the ‘Rahman is back ‘feel. Also the thought of Rabbi Shergill singing for Shahrukh didn’t turn out to be that bad an idea after all. A decent title song but there’s something missing. Most of you will like this song but will somewhere feel disappointed.

Shreya Ghosal has sung for Katrina Kaif in the past and sung well. I have heard most of Mohit Chauhan songs and I like the way the man sings. After Rabbi, it is the man who gave us ‘Jo Bhi Main ‘who lends his voice to Saans. I shall comment on this in the final paragraph of the review. There is a lot to say. Coming back to the song, Saans is that slow romantic song every movie needs these days. I’ve heard better songs than this. Saaiyara from Ek Tha Tiger sung by the same duo as a matter of fact is one for example ( not a great song but anyday better than this ) Is this the same man who gave us hits like Dil Se , Taal , Rang De Basanti , etc ? A very mediocre song to say the least. Getting an indication of what is going to follow, I prepare for the worst.

Song number three, Ishq Shava is a lively and peppy number. Shilpa Rao is one singer who over the past few years has slowly made her name in female play back singing in the industry. Once again she manages to be the only reason why you’ll hear this song. Three songs down and I’m still looking for AR Rahman.

Heer is a simple but at the same time soothing number to listen to. 4 songs down and this is the closest I felt I was listening to the music composed by the man with curly hair. You may not like it at the start but there might be a selected few who will.

We come to the livelier Jiya Re. I wasn’t that gripped the first time I heard it, Neeti Mohan’s voice being the only thing that was stuck in my head. Hear it a few times and you’ll keep this in your mobile phone. That I assure you. The music of Jab Tak Hai Jaan has some hope.

Turns out it’s Jab Tak Hai Jaan and not Challa that’s the title song of this film. The song has a versatile feel to it as Rahman’s combined multiple individual tracks into this one. Javed Ali doing equal justice to the song.

Saans (Reprise) is a slower and the solo female version of Saans. Was too slow for my liking.

Rahman goes instrumental by giving us Ishq Dance. I don’t go to dance classes nor do I dance well but I’ve heard much livelier dance numbers, Hindi ones that too.

And last but not the least we come to Jab Hai Jaan – The Poem, recited by Shahrukh himself and written by Aditya Chopra, the lyrics of the poem leave a lasting impression. The Hindi used in the poem is not that tough to understand. Yash Chopra’s last Veer Zaara too had a poem towards the end of the movie (which was a treat to listen to). This time is no different. The best has been saved for the last. 

Songs that you will download – Challa, Jab Tak Hai Jaan – Poem , Jiya Re

Songs that you will download and end up liking eventually – Heer , Ishq Shava

Song that you will delete – Jab Tak Hai Jaan , Saans , Saans ( Reprise )

To cut a long story short, I am very very disappointed in the music of JTHJ. I’ll come to Rahman later but the thing I found most surprising were the choices of male playback singers that were used. Yash Chopra’s last directorial venture , Veer Zaara had too many songs but each one was one that is still heard today for one prime reason – When you closed your eyes and heard the song you felt Shahrukh was singing. We’ve seen this trend right from Raj Kapoor and Mukesh, Mohammed Rafi and Shammi Kapoor, Kishore Kumar and Rajesh Khanna/Amitabh Bacchan. People of my generation have grown up listening to Udit Narayan, Sonu Nigam and Shaan giving their voice to countless number of Shahrukh songs. The trend with all the examples mentioned above is that you always thought the actor was singing when it was certainly not the case. Such was the voice in the playback singing.  If I were given a choice I would have stuck to the tried and tested. Rabbi was surprising but he did justice to the song. But Mohit Chauhan singing for Shahrukh? Something went wrong there.

Rahman fans have waited long for his return and most of us will be massively disappointed with the music that he has given us. Besides Hosanna, I doubt any of us heard another song from Ekk Deewana Tha. Most of us think it was Rockstar which was his last movie. Music the likes of Dil Se, Taal, Swades, etc cannot be made again but at least give us the assurance that yes it was the same man that composed those tunes. Rahman’s next Hindi movie releases in 2013 (when I don’t know) but I hope the music lives up to the name that I have grown up listening to.

If you want me to give stars I'll give the music of JTHJ 2.5/5 . And that's being generous to say the least ( gave one star just because it's Rahman ) 

P.S. - Should have done the music review for Barfi :(

We gotta fight

Been a while since I blogged. I haven’t been busy, but yes I’ve spent too much unnecessary time over a book that I should have never written in the first place. Not leaving anything complete, I have finished what I regret starting. We shall discuss that some other day. You and I can finally look forward to more blogs from me.

Fight for the right thing – it might not be there tomorrow.

I am disappointed at the world I see today. I see people who are sad, who are angry, frustrated. There is a look on their faces which tells me that they’re looking and hoping for more than what they currently have not knowing there are people in situations far worse than them.

These humans, I see are always fighting. Maybe, I think the reason is because they aren’t happy with that they have and perhaps they feel and in some cases know that they deserve much more. The world is not a fair place they say.

I look around and see the things for which people fight. This is exactly what my blog will speak about.

Wars are being fought throughout the world. Some with guns, some with hands and there is that select few that venture out to battle not with arms but with peace as their weapon. Men go with the sole aim of killing the person in another uniform, women spending days in hope that their husband may return, victorious and alive. Children of these men who are too young to know the difference between right and wrong are dragged into this for no fault of theirs. What are we fighting for at the end of the day is what I ask myself.

In earlier times and even today looked at land / territory has always been one of the main reasons as to why one fights. There are more and more people thus leading to less space per person. This naturally leads to suffocation, frustration for he feels that the space given to him is not enough. Such is man’s greed for territorial possession and power that words like greenery, environment and pollution have come into existence. There will come a time when we will have no place to go. This is why we are making the most of it and taking what is available. It all looks good from the outside, but we will pay a heavy price for this. And this day is fast approaching.

The other things I see as to why man is so ‘pissed off ‘is because he doesn’t have enough water, enough electricity / light, money and enough love. For many, the word enough is placed by no. There are people with no land, no water, and no light, no money and most importantly, no LOVE.

I see people living on the road spending nights in the chilly cold, others lining up for hours in front of one small municipal tap. Children much smarter and intelligent than me study in groups under street lights to pass their exams.

Money is not everything, we don’t realize its value when it’s there , we do when we don’t. The rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer. But one thing is common in both; no one is satisfied with what he has and wants more. Family disputes over property and wills seems to be the ‘in ‘thing today. With available resources being used by more people, prices of commodities will skyrocket. There is no denying that.

In the end, we all manage or the word that we Indians love to use, adjust. Things seem to be heading from bad to worse, but we do just fine. We need to wake up and realize there will come a day when the man on the road has no place to sleep; there will be no water from the tap, no light to guide us and no money to spend.

And now coming to my favorite topic, LOVE (Pyaar Gazab ki Cheez Hai ) . This is one department where one cribs when there is too much of it and he certainly sulks when there is no love at all. There are individuals who feel lonely despite being surrounded by huge numbers while there are some who find happiness even with one person who will be with them through thick and thin.

We fight in love, we fight to love, and we fight for love. Why do we? I don’t know. We don’t seem to reason in love, do we?

So at the end of the day I see people fighting, quarrelling over land, water, electricity, money and Love. These 5 are reducing with each passing day due to people demanding much more than what they deserve. We need a big wakeup call. We need some binding force for us to stand together. If you ask me, we are fighting too much, and for the wrong things. The way I see it, there is only one thing in this world worth fighting for.  And it is not Katrina Kaif.

It is a combination of land, water, sunlight, money and most importantly Love. These 5 are diminishing, and fast.  We are so busy fighting amongst ourselves that we forget by asking for more of these 5 elements we are putting an end to this one thing that the world is possessed by.

I am talking about CHOCOLATE, the only thing in this world fighting for.

We have dealt with space problems, water problems, load shedding , financial problems and all of us have spent a lot of time , effort and money on getting over Love (alcohol drinkers take note).

But can you imagine a world where Chocolate is no longer available due to there being no land to grow them on , water is all dried up , due to the damaged environment sufficient sunlight is not achieved . The rich are too involved in things much ‘important ‘than chocolate and for the poor, chocolate isn’t exactly top priority. Plus there might be a time where we might have to think twice before spending money on something as good as chocolate. When we come to love we see people are so engrossed in beating the hell out of each other that there is no love anymore. So how will the world get more chocolate?

If you want to fight, fight for Chocolate. Because there will come a day when there won’t be this tasty little thing to eat and savor. And since we are fighting for land, water, light and money and love you might as well fight for the thing which has all these five combined. Chocolate is more precious than you think.

So the next time you leave the house, just make sure the tap is not running, the switches are turned off. You are making a small contribution to the big picture - that is the world getting more and more chocolate.

But you won’t. And this is what will happen some years from now.

A person sitting in the bus ahead of you takes out a chocolate from his pocket. Before he can eat it, the entire lot in the bus rushes towards him for that one piece. Within minutes, I see his shirt torn and bruises all over his face. I doubt how many pieces of chocolate everyone managed to get. What a delightful sight. A last man standing battle just for a piece of chocolate. We don’t realize the importance of chocolate, one day we all will beg; beg for a piece of chocolate.

So the next time you go and eat a chocolate, think of what I just said. This chocolate was planted on land, given enough water and sunlight for it to end up in your hand. You are lucky enough to afford it. A lot of time and effort has been spent in that chocolate being produced. You might be eating this lovely thing. But you’re children might not be lucky enough. If there is no land, water, light and love, something as common as chocolate even though available might burn more than just a hole in your pocket.

So don’t think about tomorrow. Enjoy the chocolate while you eat it. What you can do is start from the present.

Chocolate is the only thing I never share and rightly so. There might not be a Dairy Milk, Kit Kat, Perk and Milkybar tomorrow. If Adit, on those very rare occasions gives you a chocolate, just remember you really mean something to him and have done something good.

And for the sad lot who say no when I/someone offers you a chocolate 

Fuck You Too !!!

The Green Dot

Today’s blog talks something that most of us can relate to, online chatting. We spend hours glued to the computer typing line after line building conversation talking about things we like and things we don’t. We chat with our friends, sometimes enemies and even the category of friends who are now no more than strangers who come into this list.

I shall be talking about the exact same thing, but as is the case with me, I shall do it in a different way. I’ve been on both sides of the fence so I won’t take sides. Chatting online is an important tool to help build conversation but at the same time making inroads in a face to face conversation is key. This online-offline setting is different with each relationship a person has. What is my stance regarding her, I shall discuss someday else. Not today.

What separates chatting from other modes of conversation is that it isn’t face to face so it gives people that are shy a better chance to open up. This is something we see a lot around us; people who can’t open their mouth when it comes to a face-to face conversation are the kings of the online world when it comes to chatting.

Calling/messaging the person are the other options one has. But in these cases the person might be busy, sleeping when you try to get in touch. But this is not the case with chatting. You see, there something that tells you the person is ready. 

Yes my friends, I am talking about that small green dot you see besides your friend’s name on Facebook. If you ask me, it’s much more than a small green dot. That green dot is the difference between a good mood and bad mood. Do I think about the conversation I just had with her after shutting down the computer or is my mood fucked since she wasn’t online. Everything depends on that one green dot.

This green dot tells you that the person is not busy, not sleeping and is on the computer/device wanting to talk to someone. Are you that person, well that depends on one click of a button. This is exactly what I’m going to talk about.

Be it at home or college (thank you Mumbai University for the Wi-Fi) I spend a good 5-6 hours online every day. This time is spent tweeting, listening to songs on Youtube, and checking email. But majority of the time is spent on Facebook where I post jokes (will get better and better), comments on certain groups. This Facebook time is further divided into ‘Facebook chatting time ‘which takes up more than 80% of my total time spent on the computer.  

I spend hours chatting with people the entire day. But I don’t see that green dot besides her name. This if you ask me is the reason why I spend so much time online, because she isn’t online and I am waiting, waiting and waiting. Due to this I pass my time chatting about the most basic things with my friends. This goes on and on and has to because should that green dot appear after I turn down the computer then the entire ‘effort’ goes waste. No gain, no pain (Daddy pays electricity bill). This is the power of that one green dot.

You want that green dot to appear next to her name . You want to chat with her . She , at that point of time means everything to you . You will give anything for that dot to appear besides her name . There is so much inside that you want to tell her . She might not be online now but there is that uncontrollable urge to talk/type with her is what makes you stay. You know you want to talk , sometimes much more than talk , and thus you know you have to wait . You have no choice . This is why I love , love . 

So the entire day is spent just waiting for that green dot to appear besides her name. If you’re having one of those days, you’ll give up and shut the machine down.  But that moment when you see the green dot on the right of her name is what makes up for all those hours of waiting. All those hours of waiting and frustration goes out of the window just by seeing that green dot appear now . The girl you like is now online. Let’s have a fucking conversation now !!!

And it’s due to this, you spend hardly a second clicking her name and typing something (girls, this is exactly the reason why guys initiate Facebook chats, because they have been waiting) thus starting a conversation.

And then there’s me – I sometimes wait the whole day waiting for that green dot to appear. After hours of waiting, that green dot appears, and I go offline. Pyaar Gazab ki Cheez Hai .

Have a nice day …

He's no more

“Gone With the Wind "

Whenever Adit Ganguly checked his weight at the railway station the automated voice always used to say “Please Step Again " at least 5 times before the chit could come out.  His friends and family constantly used to make him aware of the fact on how badly does he need to gain weight.

But as the fun loving boy that he was Adit ignored them all and listened to what his heart said not knowing that his weight would be the cause of his death.

The “beanstalk “ as he was fondly called was swept away by the sea at Versova Beach on Monday , 23^rd June 2012. It’s a sad incident for the near and dear but it doesn’t come as a shock to those who really knew him. He needed to gain weight as simple as that. The fact that he didn’t know how to swim also didn’t help his cause.

“Beanstalk “will be remembered as the tall and lanky lad who always went out of his way to help those in need. He was one who loved roadside food and swore by Himesh Reshamiya.

He gave up non-vegetarian food not knowing how badly he needed to gain weight. This resulted in common fights with his mother and their dog “Simba “gaining 5 kilos due to the fish and chicken at his disposal. 

Besides family he had to bear the constant nagging of his girlfriend who was a good 15 kilos heavier than him.  He couldn’t help it; she was born in a family of wrestlers. She tried her best to make him gain weight 

but “Beanstalk “was stubborn as a mule. This resulted in constant fights on who needs to lose and who needs to gain weight but women think they’re right most of the time.

Due to this “ Beanstalk “ faced depression and frustration in life. He started hating the things he once used to love. He started smoking and behaving aggressively with everyone. In a way its good things ended this way as it was just a matter of time before they broke up.

He was also well known in the Lokhandwala and Versova footballing circle. His friends are now faced with a huge problem as they have to come up with a replacement for a goalpost.

We live, and we die. At the funeral, he’s sure no one will cry.

Funeral Venue and Time - Tuesday , 24th July 2012 . Versova Cremation Ground 4pm 

Dress Code – Please don’t wear White . Adit loved Football so much he’d like it if you guys turned up in the jersies of the football teams you support . And if you don’t watch Football and want to turn up , just don’t wear white . 

A cocktail you'll enjoy

When I heard Tumhi Ho Bandhu for the first time, the word Pritam immediately came to my mind.  Cocktail’s title seems to be the latest entry playing on most of my friend’s mobile phones and rightly so. Right from the first line, you know that this is a song that you want to hear on repeat. Such is Kavita Seth’s voice that right from the first line sung by her one wants to hear the song another time. Accompanied by Neeraj Shridhar, the duo make you fall in love with the song doing absolute justice to the tempo and lyrics. This song’s going to be on top of the charts for a quite some time. I just hope Pritam hasn’t lifted this song from anywhere, would be a real mood kill if he did (won’t be surprised if he did at the same time).

Daaru Desi is peppy right from the word go (nice guitar intro). Interesting and different lyrics accompanied by Benny Dayal vocals (wish he would sing more songs) make this another song that you must have on your phone. Also, a shout goes to the female vocalist who complements Benny very well. Two songs down and I’ve already decided to watch this movie. Good job Pritam (fuck knows how)

Yaariyan is one of those songs that you can listen to when you look outside the window of your home or car window (very much an on the move song, the peaceful types). My expectations from the number went up a notch when I read Shilpa Rao’s name below the name of the song and she doesn’t disappoint. I don’t know who Mohan Kanan is, but whoever you are, thanks for giving your voice to this song. 3 songs down and I wonder if this can be really a work of art from the man we know as Pritam.

Song names seem to get weirder by the day; Second Hand Jawani gives you the exact same feeling. Lyrics are even weirder than the name. If you’re the person who likes what others don’t like then this song is for you. The female voice was just not for my liking. Halfway into the song and you’ll hit next.

Pritam combines English and Hindi/Punjabi lyrics in Tera Naam Japdi Phiran. The English lyrics are the ones that you hear in any hip-hop number, heard one you’ve heard all. This needs to change, fast. This song will play a lot in gym’s I feel. The Hindi/Punjabi part of the song is the saving grace. Heard the song twice and that was it.

Luttna starts off on such a sober note (good one that too) and midway into the song the song gets so loud that you want to remove your headphones. Why Pritam Why? (Started off so well). Song keeps moving from sober to loud and back. Even if you download this one, I’ll give it 5 hearings max before you delete it.

I liked Jugni, I really did. Punjabi lyrics (can’t understand them but you like the language regardless) being the main reason. Give it a listen.

The reprise version of Yaariyan sung by Sunidhi Chauhan and Arijit Singh doesn’t grab your attention right from the start which the normal version does. But Sunidhi shows what an accomplished singer she is. The best female singer in the industry at the moment if you ask me, but there’s something missing in this one that makes the original one better.

Luttna has a reprise version as well, and I give this one less than 5 hearings before you delete it. The soft part of the song is all that you want to hear. Once the song goes loud you want to bang your head (different type of head banging mind you). There will surely be a segment of the audience that likes this song. Want to hear their side of the story.

Tera Naam Japdi Phiran has a’ Version 2.0’; it’s just another song in the album if you ask me. Download this or the original one, won’t make a difference.

Angrezi Beat is a song sung by Honey Singh is a Punjabi number that’ll be used in the movie. A song that people will dance to at parties.

Songs that you MUST DOWNLOAD – Tumhi Ho Bandhu, Daaru Desi, Yaariyan.

Songs that you could download and will eventually end up liking – Luttna, Jugni , Angrezi Beat

Songs that you will ‘keep’ but not delete neither listen after some time  – Tera Naam Jaapdi Phiran

Please DO NOT DOWNLOAD – Second Hand Jawaani

I’ll give credit where due and say that Pritam has made sure that the music sales of Cocktail will be high. He’s made sure that people will end up flocking the theatres come July 13. A good soundtrack by the man was long time overdue, Pritam hasn’t disappointed.

Number ' BY HEART '

Good for Memory this thing on top 

We don't need to remember things thanks to the emerging technologies that make our life much simpler. Add to that , the frequency at which we use the same piece of information in our day to day life , remembering/recollecting it is not a very tough task.

Telecommunication has come a long way in the areas of memory . Growing up , we maintained diaries where the numbers of the people we knew were stored . This is a big reason why we still remember most of our childhood friend's land line numbers since we had to read the number from somewhere and dial it . These numbers were easily memorized on how often we called them .

But now the scenario is different , with mobile phones , one one longer has to remember the contact number of a particular person . The diary that we once had is now a phonebook / contact list where the number is saved and all that the caller has to do is type the name and dial .

My blog today shall talk about memory , mobile phones and my favorite topic , LOVE .

None of us can do without a mobile phone in today's world . We have become slaves to this device with it now becoming an integral part our lives . All information that we have/want to seek can be accessed via a mobile phone . But what happens when our mobile phone gets lost and we spend those few minutes of panic trying to remember whose number we remember by heart is what I shall talk about today.

Who are the people that I could contact in times of such an ' emergency ' . Not including the land line numbers of my childhood friends ( which are now disconnected ) there were 3 mobile numbers till last week that I knew by heart . Till last week . Now there are 4 ( I think you know where we're going )

Let me talk about my 3 ' saviors ' first , then I'll talk about the one that you people want to know about.

1) Daddy - Person who bought me the mobile phone . Remembering his number is my thank you gift

2) Brother - Don't talk to him as much ( I love you Mudit ) but his number is easy to remember

3) Best Friend for the past 5 years - Football , guy/girl issues , the works . Speak to him at least thrice a day.

Do not remember's Mom's number . Doodh Ka Karz . Sorry Mummy .

And now , let's talk about person number 4 ( if you were really smart , you'd skip the start and come right here )

So who is this person number 4 . Let me bring that smile on your faces by stating what I think you guys would have already guessed by now

Savior number 4 is a GIRL ( Here we go again . Adit , you really need to stop )

How do I know her number by heart is not important . It is the WHY do I know her number by heart is what you people want to know .

Well , let me make things more interesting by telling you that her number wasn't that easy to memorize . So WHY do I know it ?

Secondly , I don't communicate that often with #4 that often . So WHY do I know those 10 digits at the back of my hand and not someone's else who I talk to much more . #4 might be down the pecking order when it comes to who I'll call in an emergency . #4 might/will surely find it extremely odd ( I'm hoping she finds it funny ) that I remember her number . What follows should such an event in the future occur is what I am looking forward to with eager anticipation.

To the people around me - If you want to know who this person is , all you need to do is ... I won't tell you who I called , she will tell you people who called her .

And last but not the least a song for all you people which is very close to our hearts
