Chaandni raaten – Song No. 17
————————————–

      chandni raaten
       ho. . oo. .

       taaron se karen baaten
       ho. . oo. .
       chaandni raaten

I was aware this is some remix song of an old song, just like the remix of the song ‘Kitni Akeli Kitni Tanhaa Si Lagi‘ from film ‘Talaash’ (1969).   I used to think that ‘Kitni Akeli. . . ‘ song was a Kishore Kumar song and remixed.  It was many years later that I heard the original Lata Mangeshkar song composed by SD Burman.

We have covered over ten thousand songs in the blog still we have some extremely well known songs that still remain to be covered. Sometimes even I am not aware that they have not been covered as I am under the impression that these songs were covered long back. We call such songs as belonging to the genre of “How come this song was not discussed so far”. 🙂

Going through the posts in the blog does not give readers an indication of my whereabouts at the time of posting, unless I mention it. When I think about it, I have been to several places in the last few months and my posts have been made from places like Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Delhi, Gujarat, Maharashtra etc in addition to my present day location in Chattisgarh. Even in Chhattisgarh, I do not remain at one fixed place all the time.
