Your classification of those who don't much care for this tune as 'racists' and 'bigots' says more about you than those you attempt to slander. And what it does say about you is . . . unpleasant at best. |

Completely disagree. I love this song, and so do a lot of other RPers, which is why it has a decent rating. It's not something I would go out and buy but I love hearing music that get's me out of my comfort zone and exposes me to something besides all the typical, predictable crap on mainstream radio. One of the reasons I listen to RP is to hear music that's different but still worth hearing.
Hear, hear! I agree completely. This is certainly not one of my usual songs, but I enjoy hearing it on RP. Rock on, Bill.  |

Neither Worf nor I like this much. Worf said that for him, the music is so far from Klingon opera.  |

This is quite funny, considering I'm kinda in tech support and I've had that call. |

No, that comment isn't at all infused with bigotry. You sir, are living the dream that Dr. King spoke so eloquently about. |

Another way to look at it is that nearly 70% give it a 7 or higher rating. |

original language, with english translation
chant, repeat, repeat...
Ek rung meh jeenah jeevan ko
Eh janne tamana
Theek na hein
To live life in one color for your entire life
This, your heart's desire,
Isn't right
Ghum aur khoshee dho rhaste hain
Ek rahaa pay chalne theek nahee
Sadness and happiness are two paths
To walk on one path, isn't right
Badal Jahai Mausum
Koshee aye
Jaye ghum
Season changes,
Happiness comes,
Sadness goes
Thank you for the lyrics! It adds a whole new dimension to the song. I love it (and I'm grateful that she's not singing about "Hey Johnny...") |

Yes, perhaps the greatest analysis of a song here on RP. Bravo! |
