favorite song

I have often wondered what's my favorite song...one that I would hum/sing again and again...one that I would never get tired off? Recently I started using the IPhone app "Shazam". The way this app works is that if a song is playing somewhere (radio/tv/....), just hold up your iphone and within seconds this app will tell you the song name, artist, album etc etc. Surprisingly, while driving to and from work, in the last 2 weeks or so, I have a collection of 80+ english songs that I like.... and I know there are many more I like. One day I will just buy all these in bulk from itunes. ;)

Coming to Hindi songs, while the newer songs are very catchy and get you in the mood to get up and hit the dance floor, but one tends to get bored of them after a while. not so for the older hindi songs. While I don't know which one of the olies is my favorite but here are a few that I like.

Anupama

Jeene ki raah

Anokhi Ada

Gambler

Anand

Hum Dono

Guide

Roti Kapada Makaan

Saccha jhoota

Prem Pujari

Jeevan Mrityu

Dulhan wahi jo piya man bhaye

There are more but then I don't want to bore my audience too much ... ;) but in passing, a few ghazals (some are not original singer)

Kal chaudhavi ki raat thi

Hungama - The best

Us mor se shuru kare

Hum to hae pardes mein
