I've heard bits of this Hindi song here and there but never really gave it much thought. I just caught Inside Man (Clive Owen = sex) on HBO and this song was the opening song. It's the first time I've really listened to it closely. I don't understand a single word, but damn, it's such a GREAT song! (Apparently Spike Lee thought so too.)

I don't listen to Indian music in general (the language barrier might have something to do with it) but I thought this song is pretty awesome. I IMDB'd and Wiki'd it and found that the song is Chaiyya Chaiyya and it's from a 1998 Bollywood movie called Dil Se. The music video is really cool because it features people dancing atop a moving train. Wiki says 2 dancers died in the process of performing on the train. :(

Anyway, the male protaganist is Shah Rukh Khan, who is, of course, quite famous and quite hot. No idea who the female lead is but she looks really pretty.

I know it's only July but so far, this is my ~*~*Album of 2007~*~.



Munich is probably the most worn-out track on my iPod, if there is such a thing. And now, I just can't stop listening to this! Second album curse what? Now this is how you do a fantastic follow-up record. *coughI'mlookingatyouFranzcough* Editors has always been a blokes sort of band but I may just start getting fangirly. Ish.

A couple of tracks:
Smokers Outside The Hospital Door
The Racing Rats

My Musical Find of the Day: The Central Band of the Royal British Legion cover Klaxons' Gravity's Rainbow

Yes.

A military marching band does "new rave".



It's pretty awesome, really.

Muse! Tomorrow!

I'm so excited! Especially since I understand they will be playing more older material than what they've been playing on the recent BH&R tour. Squee!

And no rain please. I'm really not up for a wet and muddy night.
