There are some songs you carefully avoid in your playlist. But never delete them. I wonder why. Songs. A midnight thought. People love music. Some catch the notes. Others the lyrics. And I wait for a story. A story that unfolds in a song. Emotions confessed. Perhaps some regretted. Reason I love the Rajasthani Folk songs is that they convey a story. Perhaps a story from history. Then there are the romantic tunes. Songs that make your heart ache. Or perhaps take a trip down nostalgia. There are some songs you carefully avoid in your playlist. But never delete them. I wonder why. Hope? Or the habit of holding on to memories? Or perhaps a reminder that the people and places are not ours anymore. Is it because of the people and places we associate with them or perhaps that one person who gave us that song? There are songs that make you feel like you are in a scene of some movie. Am not kidding. Certain songs you prefer to play on your long drives, lip sync and imagine your hair blowing in the wind in slow motion. Then there are songs that take you to a world of imagination. Songs that can make you dream and hope. Then there are the patriotic ones that leave you with pride, moist eyes and goosebumps. So many feelings. And one source. Songs. Where Poetry meets Music.
