this one gets disco all smiley

you know that 'pehli nazar mein' song from that race movie, the one everyone's in love with. well i'm in love with it now. it's hard not to love especially with atif aslam's dreamy voice. it would have been a perfect song except for the cheesy english lines thrown in. who decides to add "baby i love youuuuuuu, oh i love you sooooo" in the middle of a hindi song? the other thing that's annoying me now that i've listened to it so many times is the 'meri baahon mein aa' part. aslam seems to suddenly develop an accent here so the 'baaaa' part totally makes him sound like a goat. pay attention next time. i'm currently listening to it while watching the match. the australian commentary is so bad and so one sided i cant bear to listen to it anymore. and the song is fun background music to the pretty boundaries. except for just now when two batsmen got out during the same verse then it wasn't very fun. ugh! it's 200 damn runs. wtf is wrong with you? damn it. you're upsetting disco. is okay beta. i'll play the song again for you. close your eyes and listen to it. cricket can be a scary game and you know how i feel about mouth to mouth.

for some reason, i've been avoiding that song. and the commentary? sky sports totally sucks. especially taylor and slater. it was worse during the tests...thats why we go hunting for star cricket links!

"you know how i feel about mouth to mouth" - Why Pri the Paramedic would have been a bad career move. :p

Thanks.. u just spoiled the song for me. If the fake accent bothers you the same way I am, u might enjoy the original Korean version - no need to worry about accent, lyrics.... just listen to the music. http://youtube.com/watch?v=CAVvhsUlvjM

Nice blog BTW.

everyday i hear a hindi song with the cheesy english backing vocals. it was even in that bluffmaster video, except it was faux-rap which is arguably worse.

oh, and BTW i presumptuously memed you. sorry for inconvenience, please.
