Return of the SHWAAB!

2008-05-14T13:02:00.004+05:30

thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud thud bAng!!

And that was his Run up .. Which starts just a meter inside the boundary line!

It was one of those Spiderman stories for Shwaab yesterday (pronunciation courtesy Aamir Sohail by the way).. Guy down and out - banned from playing - disgraced for his 'badness' - comes back for goodness' sake and pulls off something special - it was the more poetic version of 'comeback' and he certainly took to it seriously and with all the passion he ever imagined he would give to this game.

It helps watching every cricket match sometimes - you manage to see these rare superhero sightings LIVE! Infact, I am not a huge fan of Shwaab anyways - but the character, the passion, the sheer skill and sheer pace he possessed and flaunted - could have been scary if I was on the Delhi team!

Steaming in from the boundary line, bowling at 150 km/h, sweating like crazy, bowling short, bowling length, balls seaming in-seaming out - who said 20-20 is for batters?? It was the most exciting bowling spell in 20-20 history afaik - He ran like a raging bull and bowled like it was his life at stake! And probably it was.

Sehwag's wicket was a perfect outswinger first up - in any test match this would be a notebook opener's dismissal - sadly, no batsman in 20-20 has time or patience to get out like this :P .. it's just not a stylish way of getting out in this form! This one really charged up Shwaab and with his signature Airplane-take off-celebration, sweat running all over - he had just begun.

Gambhir's wicket was a bit lucky - thanks to dada's experience as a captain, he had the right man at backward point - the 6 foot long subway sandwich called David Hussey. The ball could have easily flown over the man and gone for 4, or even 6 - reminding you of the Sehwag-Sachin bashing of Shwaab back in the 2003 World Cup, but wasn't to be. Gambhir just managed to give the way outside off stump short ball a strong jab but not a full go and managed to entertain Hussey at Backward Point. Wicket no. 2 and everybody just knew by now that this is going to be Shwaab's day.

Wicket 3 and 4 were just sheer pace and accuracy - delightful wickets for a superfast bowler (and there aren't too many). First a short ball on the ribcage - De Villiers fancied the pull which he's actually good at, but the extra pace was too much and he only managed to sky it to Taibu on the on-side. Manoj Tiwary had no idea where the next ball hit him and how and where it came from. People argue that it could have been an inside edge - but nonetheless, it was a superfast good length ball that sharply seamed in - very similar to the famous Allan Donald-Sachin Tendulkar clean bowled.

By this time, it wasn't about Kolkata, wasn't about Delhi and wasn't about the IPL. It was about a down-and-out FAST bowler in the middle of 80,000 cheering fans, ripping through a top order and scripting a dream comeback.

It's funny how just 3 overs - 18 balls can change everything.

Eye Pee Elle

2008-04-29T15:33:00.001+05:30

Now that even Amitabh Bachchan has started writing blogs, I just thought it's high time I post something!

Wasim Jaffer hit two sixes yesterday, Shoaib and Harbhajan are both sorry, the monstrous traffic at Sakinaka has mellowed down and Salman Khan is a quizmaster. Who says we need change??

Anyways, since there is too much to talk about and almost nothing as exciting as the IPL, let me do the 'Chance pe Dance', or in other words, 'behti ganga me haath saaf kar lete hai'.

Like some people, Im not going to bitch about it coz I actually agree with the tagline 'Manoranjan ka baap'!

Shane Warne has lived up to his legend so far, and so has Dhoni. They say the latter is plain lucky, although if thats the case, he certainly has a very long-term contract with God.

Dada wasn't sure if he's leading the Kolkata side or is Shahrukh until he walked into the Eden Gardens I guess, the place where even after 50 more years of cricket/armageddon (whichever comes first), the only real god they'll worship would be Ganguly.

Yuvraj is for some reason trying to pull off an Anil Kapoor with his moustache and all, but the thicker it gets, the better he's playing I guess - and talking about Anil Kapoor, I did manage to see him live at Wankhede the other day when he was madly circling the ground like a streaker and eventually ran out of breath to make way for Kareena and Saif - Kareena is invisible in real life by the way! Red hot.

VVS Laxman - no comments. Although he did manage to hit a six somewhere.

Sehwag is not too impressed with 20-20 anyways, as it doesn't make any difference to the way he plays - he's just having a good time. His team's doing ok though.

Rahul Dravid was tricked into picking a team made for the Ashes - guess that's all they'll be reduced to at the end of round robin! Unless he lets Misbah play - although they still won't be able to beat Chennai as Chennai has Joginder Sharma!

Last but not the least (Just like Ravi Shastri introduced him at the opening ceremony) - Sachin Tendulkar - 'Alaa Re' - apart from the fact that actually woh 'Nahi aala re'.. I can imagine every Mumbai Indians fan (including me) going 'woh aayega, woh aayega, woh aayega, woh aayega' just like Sridevi in Khuda Gawah. Is it too late?

Never too late for Sachin. Let's see if he can take this we-don't-want-to-win-any-match team of losers to anything respectable. Only if he ever plays, that is!

And yeah, just to mention - Vodafone dog rocks and people now hate Godrej.

Jee raha hun

2006-08-14T02:20:00.000+05:30

Kise samjhaun,
matlab in armaano ka,
kaise bataun,
kis khwaab me jeeta hun main.
kehna hai kuch,
kyun waqt chahta hun,
lawzo ko rok kar,
kya paa raha hun main.

Jal jayega woh paani,
bujh jaoge tum,
dil aayega mujhi par,
na ruk paoge tum,
aur aaine se na pooch paoge,
kyun tu ab rota hai.

Raat ke ujaale me,
din ka andhera hun main,
Us baat ke jhooth ka,
akela sach hun main.
kal tha woh ajnabee,
kal kyun yaad aa raha hun,
jis khwaab ko rulaaya,
aaj usi mein jee raha hun.

Jal jayega woh paani,
bujh jaoge tum,
dil aayega mujhi par,
na ruk paoge tum,
aur aaine se na pooch paoge,
kyun tu ab rota hai.

Rusted Life

2006-07-26T23:30:00.000+05:30

I lead a runsome, busted, rusted life,
I need to wonder what could make it right.
I wear a sinful, lusted, lost disguise,
I lead a runsome, busted, rusted life.
Pay to see me run up to the sea,
pray to stop me burn down all the glee.
and,
the life after life, ends yesterday,
so just stare at the sky, and watch me play.

I lead a runsome, busted, rusted life,
I need to wonder what could make it right.
I wear a sinful, lusted, lost disguise,
I lead a runsome, busted, rusted life.

Lay all the cards in front of me,
Lie, but then do it constantly.

I lead a runsome, busted, rusted life,
I need to wonder what could make it right.
I wear a sinful, lusted, lost disguise,
I lead a runsome, busted, rusted life.

........happy music.........

Slide away, slide away,
to the happier day,
there are days in the sun,
so what if its a night today.
but enough of this happy strum,
now i get back to what I tried to say,

I lead a runsome, busted, rusted life,
I need to wonder what could make it right.
I wear a sinful, lusted, lost disguise,
I lead a runsome, busted, rusted life.

Random Sher

2006-07-18T00:17:00.000+05:30

Watched Fanaa .. pretty boring movie .. a few shers were good tho shuru me ..
here's an original from me ..

"Pasand aaye ho is dil ko tum, jaan se bhi jyaada pyaar karte hai,
Jo baat kehna chahte the hum, ab tumse sunne ka intezaar karte hai."

Yay!

2006-07-17T00:30:00.000+05:30

Michael Schumacher won again today. :)
Just 17 points behind Alonso now, with 7 races to go :).

Love or Fire?

2006-07-15T13:51:00.000+05:30

Love is just like Fire.

It can save, it can kill.
The more you blow into it, the more it grows.
Can come out of nowhere.

And ya, most important,

"Break glass for fire extinguisher"
"Break heart for love extinguisher"

Frozen Heart

2006-07-13T19:07:00.000+05:30

Activated,
and sent to you with a box of chocolates.
Devastated,
but made to look like a nobel prize.
Made to travel the east and west,
kept on walking without a rest,
left it at your doorstep in the night.
left it at your doorstep in the night.
I just came to deliver a frozen heart.
I just came to deliver a frozen heart.
I just came to deliver a frozen heart.

Pick it up and try to melt it,
with nothing but your bare hands.
and let the poor thing know once and for all,
where the hell he stands.
Swim through the seas then run to the sky,
look for me in the dark moonlight,
but, you'll never find me here tonight.
but, you'll never find me here tonight.
coz,
I just came to deliver a frozen heart.
I just came to deliver a frozen heart.
I just came to deliver a frozen heart.

Catch a plane to Utopia,
find me on the street with no name,
take a picture of me,
and hope I still look the same.
Put me to sleep with the frozen heart,
and wish for a better, delightful start.
and keep it a secret to the new me,
that,
I just came to deliver a frozen heart.
I just came to deliver a frozen heart.
I just came to deliver a frozen heart.

Mount Silence

2006-07-13T13:28:00.000+05:30

Swim to the whale,
and swim to the sky,
to the mount of silence,
but not so high.
Lie to the gods,
but to me don't lie,
the bite of a lozenge,
doesn't make you fly.

Slap in the face,
or a dumb shoe-lace,
or the sword of a dentist,
can make you cry.
You better not run,
to the scarlet sun,
coz every drop of it,
will suck you dry.

Left of the right,
and the bottom of a night,
there's a time and place,
for the perfect fight.
With the soulmate A,
or the roommate B,
its the time to go kiss the moonlit sight.

Swim to the whale,
and swim to the sky,
to the mount of silence,
but not so high.
Lie to the gods,
but to me don't lie,
the bite of a lozenge,
doesn't make you fly.

Stuck to a smile,
you can't go a mile,
only superman can pull of a style.
Weep to the she,
or weep to the me,
or sleep it away,
but don't be shy.
coz,
Tears in the mind,
not water in eye,
can bleed you empty,
every day you try.

So,

Swim to the whale,
and swim to the sky,
to the mount of silence,
but not so high.
Lie to the gods,
but to me don't lie,
the bite of a lozenge,
doesn't make you fly.

Overburn

2006-07-11T15:04:00.000+05:30

Spill me from the side,
or ill end up leaking,
surrounded is every turn,
so i end up faking,
so shut up and let me overburn,
let me overburn.

See the water trickle on the sheet,
and it wets nothing but the weed,
and every sip of something I dont need,
tends to overburn.

A virgin orange waiting for its peel,
lying on a blob of stainless steel,
with a diet coke makes up a meal,
and let the calory overburn,
let the calory overburn.

Spill me from the side,
or ill end up leaking,
surrounded is every turn,
so i end up faking,
so shut up and let me overburn,
let me overburn.

Not making sense is what makes more sense,
she don't care if it says ladies or gents,
and to smell the funk I will never learn,
so let me overburn.

Seventy three and they say I die,
the past is what makes you qualify,
for heaven, hell or nowhere you go,
but in the end you overburn,
yes you overburn.

Spill me from the side,
or ill end up leaking,
surrounded is every turn,
so i end up faking,
so shut up and let me overburn,
let me overburn.

Keep Trying

2006-07-09T16:33:00.000+05:30

It stops raining,
and stops snowing,
everytime we run out to catch a cold.
They call it cliche,
your every feeling,
and every new thing you feel, they say its old.

I sang it to her,
I played it to her,
every ballad, every song, I could ever make.
I'll do the magic,
every effort,
and I'll do, I'll do whatever it takes.

And I'll keep trying,
and I'll keep my hopes to myself.
And I'll keep staring,
at the back door,
but I'll never even think about it.

Wake me to sleep,
but remind me of death,
leave me with a part of you,
at least you breath.

I'll sing it to you,
and play it to you,
the day my words start making sense.

And I'll keep trying,
and I'll keep my hopes to myself.
And I'll keep staring,
at the back door,
but I'll never even think about it.

Joey Syndrome!

2006-07-04T15:10:00.000+05:30

Friends fans must be knowing about this. In one of the episodes, Joey writes a recommendation letter to an adoption agency for Chandler and Monica, and to make it sound sophisticated, he replaces almost every word he's written with a sophisticated sounding word from the Thesaurus.

Yeah, sounds fun.. And Im so jobless that I actually tried it. Picked out the latest testimonial someone wrote for me on orkut and did what Joey did. And yeah it rocks!! chk it out ..

ORIGINAL..

Ok this man is totally non-bitchy. That just rocks. Besides he
writes songs, sings and makes music and he loves it. Which again
rocks. He is very sneak-able :P. He is half of the famous Lemonskin.
Has started working regularly and looking up books on vaccum systems
which I think is ...um a nice thing.? Ya, he is basically a good
soul. Take care yaa. I wish well for you. May you never feel
deprived of eggs in your life. But you are still going to be phatter
than I am. :)

CONVERTED..

OK this bloke is comprehensively non-cantankerous. That just
ballocks. Conjointly, he transcribes lullabies, warbles and
fabricates melody. He is very oozable :P. He is hemisphere of the
lionized Lemonskin. Has stimulated drudging diurnally and looking up
monographs on vacuum systems which I logicalize is.. um a nice
object.? Ya, he is fundamentally a good umbra. Take care yaa. I
hanker well for you. May you never palpate naked of eggs in your
oomph. But you are still going to be more swollen that I am. :)

hehe .. its fun!

Michael Schumacher

2006-07-04T12:19:00.000+05:30

I just can't stop talking abt the great man.
Here are some pics :)

Smiling as ever.

No.1. Where he belongs.

The Famous Jump.

Yeah. He plays football.

Pit Stop. Ferrari.

Weird Crash with Takuma Sato.

He's had his share of crashes.

Ross Brawn and Jean Todt. Ferrari Gods.

.......To all Schumi fans :)

Schumiiiiiiiiii

2006-07-03T00:25:00.000+05:30

Michael Schumacher won today. I still clench my fist with joy and jump all over the place when Schumi wins, just like 10 years ago!
Alonso might be having a good time, but hey, eventually Schumi HAS to win everything.

Expression

2006-07-02T13:53:00.000+05:30

Expression.
There are so many ways to express.
But most of them are through words or gestures.
There should be more to it.
You must be able to express in more ways.
Maybe smell, maybe touch. Maybe something we don't even know of right now.

Music is a nice way to express. The one I enjoy the most. I know, its words again. But with music you can say much more. Maybe your ears listen to the words and the rest of you feels the music.
Sometimes it doesn't work though. Your expression through music becomes entertainment to people, especially those who you want to express it to. Now I know what Roger Waters felt like when people didnt understand him. But then he came up with 'The Wall'. Dunno when I'll do something like that.

Some people express in divine ways. God is an example. Well, he's god, you expect that from him actually. Yet people don't believe he even exists. Well, thats a whole different topic, lets not get into that.

Computers express in weird ways. They don't say anything, but you just feel there's something wrong with them. Infact that goes for all electrical equipment :p .
And yeah, everything expresses, why only living beings?

I could sing to you

2006-06-20T16:43:00.000+05:30

I still look for the right note,
I still crave for the right words,
as forever gazes upon me.
Covered everything I could with cheese,
and failed to be happy,
who the **** was I trying to appease.

But,
In all the madness,
the thing I could feel was you,
and in all the sadness,
I'm happy I could sing to you.

Tried to find me in everything you do,
tried to light a fire in the rain,
and at the end of it all,
I still think I have something to gain.
You're my dreams, you are my reality
i am scared this might last forever
I wish god could bring you together,
prayed to him ,hoped he'd remember
but he's cold as december
now he speaks to me no more.

But,
In all the madness,
the thing I could feel was you,
and in all the sadness,
I'm happy I could sing to you.

Hindi Bands!! plz

2006-06-12T13:44:00.000+05:30

Well, i hate it when people don't want to hear good hindi music because of stupid reasons .. so here'e an attempt to make some friends listen to some good shit..

For all the people who are missing out on some great music just because 'hindi' is not their 'type' or for whatever reason .. You just have to listen to some stuff.

Fuzon - Melody at its best. Amazing vocals. Very touchy songs.
Do listen to: Khamaj, Tere Bina, Malhar. (all same album)

Indian Ocean - Simply Divine. Amazing everything. These guys have jammed for like 12 yrs bfore coming up with an album .. they can play any shit.
Do listen to: Kandisa, Leaving home, Maa Rewa, Hille re (Kandisa)
Bandeh, Memom House, Bomb Planting (Black Friday)
If you like these then get hold of the album Desert Rain.

Antaragni - Not a very famous band, but some really good songs ..
Do listen to: Father, Mysore se aayi, No man will ever love you ..

Junoon - Sayonee everyone knows .. also listen to 'Garaj Baras', 'Taara jala', 'Saeein.
Really nice sufi music, if you have the ear for it.

Strings - The most popular of all .. some nice songs, but still, the above ones are the ones you have to listen to.

Mizraab - for metal fans. You can put this under 'Progressive metal' or something. Nice stuff.

Jal - I hated the live performance, but yeah, these guys have really good songs. Apart from Woh Lamhe and Bikhra hun main (aadat), do listen to 'Dil Haare' , 'Rangon me' .. dont remember more, havent heard for a while.

Euphoria - Yeah good band. Don't need to write much .. but its pop :s .. still .. some good songs .. out of the better ones, there is "Ab na ja" , "Tum", "Hum", all the galli songs :p ..

If you don't wanna listen to all of em, at least listen to Fuzon, Indian Ocean and Antaragni.. they rock .. trust me ;) ..

I must have missed something .. plz lemme know abt more stuff if you can .. always welcome :)

Why do people hate Michael Schumacher!

Another Love Song

2006-06-10T17:44:00.000+05:30

Don't stop me from writing another love song,
the only thing i'll have left, when she is gone.
Take away all my fears,
and let me run outta tears,
and take me to the galaxy she is on.

Too many thoughts,
and many fake,
borrowed from friends,
I never wanted to make.
And I need to,
let it out,
those in me,
I could never doubt.
And today, don't mess with my head,
don't forget what I said.

Don't stop me from writing another love song,
the only thing i'll have left, when she is gone.
Take away all my fears,
and let me run outta tears,
and take me to the galaxy she is on.

All the good men,
have their day,
but she doesn't want to know,
what I have to say.
That I always think of you,
in my dreams,
and nightmares too.
And all the songs,
they were all for you.

Don't stop me from writing another love song,
the only thing i'll have left, when she is gone.
Take away all my fears,
and let me run outta tears,
and take me to the galaxy she is on.

Thought Magnet

2006-06-06T10:22:00.000+05:30

Randomness reveals,
ever so lonely, life can get,
and im not far away,
from becoming,
a thoughtmagnet.

the sound of my voice,
the sight of my face,
makes it so hard,
to erase.
Everything around,
take it away,
its time i found,
my sunday.

To sing with you,
to be with you,
makes it a day,
words come easy,
and not just today.
something feels right,
in all this randomness,
I see a light,
in the wilderness.

Wake me to sleep,
but remind me of death,
leave me with a part you,
at least your breath.
I'll wait for me,
to come back to life,
not this one though,
this is not me.

To sing with you,
to be with you,
makes it a day,
words come easy,
and not just today.
something feels right,
in all this randomness,
I see a light,
in the wilderness.

Simple World

2006-05-30T22:15:00.000+05:30

A glass, a stained one,
to see,
the stars that shine in me,
A mirror, and broken,
to trust,
I am still complete in me.
Simple things can get,
when beyond control,
and you need the world,
to believe what you see.

A gesture,
to carry you to the other side.
And you look back,
to find,
a throne with your name.
To swim back is a sin,
but you try paint the blue,
that is gone.
And as you fail to read the signs,
on the seat that you're on,
All the courage is what you need,
to carry on.

I won't look back,
and not look front,
will fly with them,
the things they call birds.

Take me to the place,
where my cymbals roar,
or take me to the day,
when my guitar weeped,
take me to my world,
my good ol friend,
Take me,
to a place close to me.

Highway

2006-05-29T22:54:00.000+05:30

I wish I had written these lines..

I am not your rolling wheels,
I am the Highway,
I am not your carpet ride,
I am the sky.

coz thats pretty much what I wanna say.

Thank you Pink Floyd

2006-05-28T13:13:00.000+05:30

Im over it.
Im over all of it.
I was sooo stupid.
Ive finally come out of it ..
like ive woken up from all the senti and writing songs bullshit.

And only Pink Floyd can do this to someone.
Thank You.
David Gilmour, you are GOD.
Roger Waters, you are GOD too.

I feel like the old Prady again.

Hail Pink Floyd.

I am so high on Pink Floyd right now! Nothing can beat this high.

Please..

2006-05-28T11:51:00.000+05:30

Take me back to the Paradise city,
where the grass is green, and the girls are pretty.

Wake up to me

2006-05-27T14:22:00.000+05:30

Wake up to me,
I know that you read me.
Sing with me tonite,
to know why you need me.

And everytime the dreamer comes to life,
He sees your reflection, in my weary eyes.

I'm not a believer,
of a thing they call love.
But the thought of you takes me,
a mile above the sky.

Wake up to me,
I know that you read me.
Sing with me tonite,
to know why you need me.

And everytime the dreamer comes to life,
He sees your reflection, in my weary eyes.

Music speaks for me, as my notes don't lie
And sometimes it helps to send someone a sigh.

It wont take an effort to start a new life.
You'll find sweet november, and I know I might.
Things will fall in place, and my songs will come alive.
I'd give up forever to hold you tonight.

....humming....

And its time you surrender,
to the waiting moment,
stop cheating your soul,
let go of the resentment.
You know you believe,
in the thing they call love,
and they've sent me as the angel,
the cupid, or the dove.

Wake up to me,
I know that you read me.
Sing with me tonite,
to know why you need me.

Wake up to love,
or whatever it may be,
I need you beside me,
I need you to wake up to me.

DREAMER

2006-05-25T01:23:00.000+05:30

Another original .. me back on writing spree :)

Today a whisper,
Knocks on the heart, of one of me.
Another reason,
To take my life, into the fantasy.

Suddenly, I see a dreamer, in all of me.
I see her, feel her, touch my soul, while I shiver.

Some kinda magic,
A spell that gives me some kinda madness.
A light in my eyes,
In every bit of brightful darkness.

And now, the dreamer, calls it happiness.
I need no more satan, its in me, driving me.

And every time,
I look inside,
I see a heavy shadow,
and a hopeless life.
A familiar sound,
The sound of me,
It comes from the dreamer,
Inside me.

It's been a while,
Staring at her confusing smile.
One more song passes by,
And I know no longer, do I need to lie.
It's time to, kill the satan, kill the dreamer.
And someday, words will flow, to show,
I don't need any dreamer.

Truth or lie

2006-05-23T14:30:00.000+05:30

After a while, a new song! the music is kinda SOADish .. dark types .. sounds good to me :)
comments!

Stay away from me,
You truth or lie controversy,
I need to sleep tonight,
Plz take away the confusing light.

Go teach someone else to jive,
And dont come back till I count to five,
Now I no longer do confide,
In the scarring heart that lies inside.

It's not easy to write a song,
On something that just might go wrong,
While the dreadful, distant chime,
Reminds me of my battle with time.

You say I need a radiation,
One of a kind, not hard to find,
I look around in vain,
To realize its in my mind.
That hungry, hidden motivation,
Looks at me, grins at me,
Pushes me to write,
Another song for you tonight.

Stay away from me,
You truth or lie controversy,
I need to sleep tonight,
Plz take away the confusing light.

Long time i've been on the run,
It makes me wanna jump the gun,
And my tired mind has a thing to say,
Today is just not the day.

The depressing note is back again,
Like always, mocking me,
Trying to teach me play,
The game of life.
As I wait for a brand new direction,
in my chair, in second gear,
Forever passes by,
soaking in all the fear.

Stay away from me,
You truth or lie controversy,
I need to sleep tonight,
Plz take away the confusing light.
I need to sleep tonight,
Plz take away the confusing light.

Ab hindi mein!

2006-05-21T22:37:00.000+05:30

was writing stuff in english .. socha apni rashtrabhashaa mein kuch likhe! ..
this is to a friend on his B'day today.. and he's not here :(

Tumhari besudi me janamdin manaa rahe hai,
khushi ke geet gaa rahe hai,
kitne acche yaar ho tum,
yeh sabko yaad dilaa rahe hai.
yaad hum aayenge tumhe,
dil se dua karte hai hum,
par aaj ke din ka anand uthaana,
har roz nahi hota kisika janam.

CRAP!

2006-05-18T00:18:00.000+05:30

As i continued my quest to to understand the deeper meaning of the word 'Crap', this time I entered the word 'Crap' into the msn image search .. and this is a result I got on the first page:

Lavagirl!! (extended)

2006-05-16T01:19:00.000+05:30

I know a lavagirl,
She's swept my heart away,
Oh My God she's freakin hot,
Burning everythin in the way!

And When I think of her,
I have no words to say,
She burns me all the time,
She does it everyday!

It was New Year's eve,
That's when I first met you,
If I remember back then,
You were called Coral Blue!

She sneaks out every night,
for as long as she can,
and that gives me another reason,
to be her biggest fan!

We've counted stars together,
don't remember how many,
lost count ever since,
coz its always been sunny!

Every breath she takes,
every song she sings,
and everything she does,
it gives me wings,
sometimes she talks too much,
abt irrelevant things,
i feel i could tell her someday,
I love all those things!

One day she called me home,
It did not feel wrong,
But when she got me drunk,
Thats when I wrote this song!

And now I sing it to her,
She's called the Lavagirl,
I hope she likes the song,
Coz now she knows, who its on!!

had to extend this to make a longer song :p

Wake Up!

2006-05-10T01:25:00.000+05:30

Time to wake up.

Yeah, i've been acting weird lately .. getting drunk and writing songs, getting emotional! (scroll down for some poetry)
never saw that coming .. well at least one good thing that came out of it is that now we have some songs!
Frankly, i've never felt this way and I kinda lost it a lil ..
I've sorta woken up now .. have to accept what life offers ..
Will live at home for while and not just hang around here in campus all the time doing nothing..
Start internship on 15th .. do some good work :)
Of course, there's something which still bothers me, have to sort it out. I can't just hide my feelings like this for long.

Anyways' today the Dean (DoSA) caught me in my car. Bolta hai I see this car on campus a lot .. the next time I see it ur in trouble! :( bad luck!

So, I shall stop acting pathetic (vikrant calls it nautanki) and get back to being that happy-go-lucky guy i used to enjoy being :). Wish me luck.

The Last Song

2006-05-09T12:11:00.000+05:30

It's not funny when I say I worship you,
I hope you understand me someday.
So easily I fell in love with you,
to realise its not just a game you play.
And suddenly you might find me all alone,
but it's music that I have with me all day.
And please dont try to call me a loser,
I'm just a guy who had lost his way.

And as I write you my last song,
the feeling still remains,
though my summer didnt last too long.

Every night something reminds me of you,
but this happy thought has turned into a scream.
Now that I know it's time for me to wake up,
it's still so hard to let go of this dream.
I wished my life to be just like the movies,
where people just laugh dance and sing.
But now I think I might have missed something,
Yeah, I failed to mention to make it a happy ending.

And as I write you my last song,
the feeling still remains,
though my summer didnt last too long.

It's not fair for you to fall in love before you even knew me,
and I now ask god why has he tampered with my destiny.
And now all I ask of god,
is when the next time I arrive,
he brings me to life right beside you.

And as I write you my last song,
the feeling still remains,
though my summer didnt last too long.
the feeling still remains,
though my summer didnt last too long.

Inside me

2006-05-07T13:59:00.000+05:30

another original .. will record all these soon .. :) ..

Someone talk to me today,
Help me out, show me a way,
I don't understand the meaning of love.

This feeling is kinda new to me,
sort it out, call it something else,
coz you know I dont't believe in love.

I write you a song everyday,
sing it out, all I wanna say,
I think I have found something in love.

I don't know where the hell my heart is,
I'm no poet nor an artist,
I just wrote this song,
coz I know I'm in love.

And sometimes when I run out of words,
I have to keep the music goin on,
coz I'm afraid I might run out of love.

And now I have found,
the perfect sound,
but it hurts me,
And now I have found,
the perfect sound,
but it hurts me!

I don't know where the hell my heart is,
I'm no poet nor an artist,
I just wrote this song,
coz I know I'm in love.

Goodbye!

2006-05-05T23:41:00.000+05:30

My latest original .. enjoi!

As I play this song for you,
There are many things I wanna say,
But now I have realised,
Its time for you to go away.

I hope you do remember,
the song I used to play,
coz its gonna be real hard,
to miss me everyday.

It's hard to say goodbye!
It's hard to say goodbye!

Sometimes I feel alone,
don't try to ask me why,
coz I now know for sure,
the reasons would make you cry.

This song comes right from my heart,
you can read it in my eyes,
and all it wants to say,
that I'll take no goodbye's.

It's hard to say goodbye!
It's hard to say goodbye!

This feeling has made me learn,
that sometimes life takes a turn,
and I will not let my heart burn,
coz I know one day you'll return.

It's time to say goodbye!
It's time to say goodbye!

Lavagirl!!

Redundancy at its Redundant best!

2006-04-25T10:05:00.000+05:30

Just came across this community on orkut http://www.orkut.com/Community.aspx?cmm=1755020 about redundancy which was about redundancy and is an orkut community about redundant things and how things get redundant when repeatedly repeated like this.
Do join it if you like it and if you like it you will join it coz joining it means liking it too unless you are one of those ppl who joins communities just for the heck of community joining.
Redundancy can be fun when you redundate the right amount (not sure if thats a real word, but anyways), and when you actually get the amount right, you will have fun with redundancy.
Now is the time for me stop wasting your time which is not supposed to be wasted but since you have already wasted some time, you can waste some more! ..

Short and Sweet!

2006-04-24T18:46:00.000+05:30

Well, I always used to think of blogs as crap.. but also wanted to have one.. so I said to myself .. hey! why not have a blog full of crap! .. and it worked! I shall not write long essays on people and places and India, America or George Bush for that matter, will rather focus on more stupid, unimportant things, like why do Koreans make only horror and romantic movies??!! or something like that .. And ya .. I hope im not the only one who reads the crap written here.. I shall leave you with some pictures to think about for a while ..

Poor Lil guy .. needs a psychiatrist

Very hot na?? This guy took all his clothes off!

Mera pyaara co-CG.. the gayest pic on earth :p
