हाँ भई, होली हो और गीतों में रंग न हो तो, तो क्या मज़ा है, हाँ?
बस, भला हो उस ऊपर से ideas देने वाले का। गाने में एक से ज़्यादा आवाज़ हो तो पंक्तियों को color code कर दो। और फिर देखो गीत की लाईनें पढ़ने का मज़ा। और होली के दिन तो बस मज़ा रंगदार गीतों का ही है। सो, पेश है एक ऐसा ही रंगदार पंक्तियों वाला गीत – होली भी और रंग भी, दोनों ही गीत में गुथे हुये मिल गए।
होली मुबारक

Today (27 march 2013) is the festival of Holi. This is the fifth Holi for this blog ! Majority of well known Holi songs from Hindi movies have been covered during the last four such occasions. Those are the songs that one gets to listen from all radio and TV stations that play Holi songs. But we in this blog, unlike radio and TV, cannot repeat the same songs and we have to discuss “new” as yet undiscussed songs on every occasion.

Seven thousand. And the mind says, Goodness, are we already there?
A fabulous pace and a fantastic record. The steady pace with which the team is pulling together is simply marvelous. And more than that, it is Atul ji’s single minded devotion to this endeavor. One can barely begin to imagine the amount of time and effort that he is relentlessly putting in, day in and day out. That is nothing less than fantastic.
