I listen to both Hindi and English songs very frequently, mainly while on the move. Some of them serve good to pep me up while others are good when I am in a mood to appreciate poetry. A rare few are good for both these reasons. And the following 3 are the creme of the rare lot.
Song: Move Your Body
Album: Johnny Gaddaar OST
Lyrics:
Life is a gamble, boy,
so you know that you better play your cards right
If you wanna take the chance,
then you know that you better stand up and fight
This is just a game
So you gotta keep on playin'
'Cause you know what I am sayin'
Then you know you might even win this tonight!
Tell me can you handle it,
Kya hoga woh hai teri kismat
Tell me can you handle it,
Lekin baazi khelega iss waqt
Song: Animal Song
Album: Affirmation
Band: Savage Garden
Lyrics:
(while I love the entire song, this is the best part!)
I've been having difficulties keeping to myself
Feelings and emotions better left up on the shelf
Animals and children tell the truth, they never lie
Which one is more human
There's a thought, now you decide
Song: All The People in the World
Album: Safri Duo Episode II
Band: Safri Duo
Lyrics:
All the people in the world
Every boy and every girl
Just imagin that we could
It isn't hard to do
All the people in the world
Every boy and every girl
Just imagin that we could
Face up brother hood
Give it up...
You just got to give it up
You just have to give it up
You just got to give it up
I recently did a course called the LandMark Education 'Curriculum for Living', and most of these lyrics also fit with the learnings from that course. Maybe that's why I noticed these lyrics in the first place, because I have been listening to these songs for quite some time.

Hey! That's the first time you have commented on my blog. Thanks a lot!!!
About Landmark, yeah, it's truly a life-changing experience. I did the Landmark Forum in Nov 07, the Advanced Course in Jan 08 and now am doing the Self-Expression and Leadership Program (SELP) for Mar-July 08.
It's an amazing place to be in. Do go for the Introduction to Landmark Forum. Normally, happens on a Tuesday evening. Let me know your email address, maybe I can help you out with its Bangalore schedule as well.
Life has been truly amazing now. Everything planned is kinda falling into place.
Thanks a lot, Nirav..but, as of now, my life is kinda on track. But, hey..you never know.
Keep writing. :-)
