I like listening to songs.. hindi film songs. I like it more from the yesteryear era. Usually the 'yester' era is limited to pre mid-80s. Thats the point upto which the songs were really good and likeable. Somehow, the songs post this era started breeding shit. I still wonder how the directors, the producers, the actors, singers and for that matter any person with an iota of rationality would come up with such non-sensical lyrics. I happened to have an auditory rape listening to one such song from the early 90s (1991 to be precise). Here goes.
The song is from the film Bhabhi picturised on Govinda and Juhi Chawla. Now, both are good actors. Actors with whom you'd associate sensibility.. Okay I may've been a bit overboard with Govinda and sensibility, but yet this one takes the cake. Sone ki cycle, Chandi ki seat.. Aao chale darling Chale double seat.
WTH !! Trying to woo the girl by taking her on a double seat ride ?!? Govinda should be thanking his stars (and the directors) that Juhi doesn't kick his ass. Even before that, what a concept. A Bicycle of Silver with a Golden seat. Who comes up with such crap ! So? Its a dream sequence you say. Granted. How many times, just how many times have you ever dreamed of a bicycle? If I had to dream, I'd dream of a Rolls Royce, a BMW, a Merc or at least an Accord (cmon, I'm dreaming man).
We start with a shitty mukhada lyric, move on a shittier antara.. whole two antras.. and supplemented by shittmax acting by Govinda.. deadly facial expressions. My words can't do justice to his facial muscles. You've got to watch them to experience the fun.
I guess this was one of the early bird songs of the 90s which set the demented trend for such songs with equally traumatising lyrics. No doubt absolutely the 90s also gave us hits such as JJWS, Darr, Baazigar, HAHK, KKHH, DTPH, KNPH and many such 4LA (Four letter acronyms), but there were many to the power of (count of the above 4LAs) which showered worsshtmax songs on us. The intensity of worshtness ranged from absolute crap to absolute senseless to absolute cheesy. Its no wonder many music lovers have reported hair loss during the lost decade for music.
Anyways, I go back to my pre-mid 80s era and continue to please auditory senses. Ciao !
