Musical post - II

FF to this week, we were driving back, but with the radio on, this time. I switched to Vividh Bharati while surfing, and lingered there just as "Ek ladki bheegi bhaagi si" started playing. I was THRILLED, to say the least :D

Just as I was thinking "I am yet to come across a more playful song than this one and it's companion in Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi, the exact same song started playing: "Haal kaisa hai janaab ka." I was in musical heaven!

Just as I was hunting down links to the videos of these songs, I came across other Kishore Kumar gems. Here are some...
(Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi)
Paanch rupayya, baara aana
Hum the, woh thi
Baaboo, samjho ishaare
(Half Ticket)
Cheel cheel chillake
Like my southie brethren (me included) would say... Yennjaaaay maadi!!

Well, I like "Ek chatur naar" but it's more comical that just playful. But so is "Cheel cheel chillake." I don't know it just probably doesn't make it to my favorites list, though I enjoy yelling along whenever we play / practice that song in a group :)
And -oh- it just means "enjoy" or "do enjoy"... "maadi" means do or make in Kannada.
