Wow, and what a wonderfully melodious gem this one turns out to be. And an absolutely fantastic Rafi – Asha duet. In fact this was actually the song that I had prepared for posting yesterday, in the run up to the 300th Rafi – Asha duet and 200th song by Qamar Jalaalabaadi. Almost at the last moment, I got this message from Atul ji, requesting me to post the ‘Baaje Waala, Patiaayaale Waala’ instead. And so I switched the songs. And as I had the lyrics all ready to go, I am posting this as one of the songs to welcome in the new year. The melody and the tempo of music is so uplifting, it is a befitting piece of music to play on a celebration like today.

Well one of these days, we may come to the bottom of this ocean of melody. Well yes, after all, the music that was created in the first four decades – has been created, and it is not possible to add to it anymore. And so one day we would have discovered all that is there to discover, and would have discussed it here on this blog. But as of now, there is still so much out there in front of us that thankfully, it is still going to be many years before this treasure gets exhausted. And I am sure there is enough for a lifetime. 🙂

There is something special about Johnny Walker lip synching Rafi. One is that Rafi Sb of course sings with the true sound of fun and jest, as required by the situation. Along with that, Johnny Walker’s antics, the twitch of his smile and the twinkle in his eyes are more than enough to convince you that he too is thoroughly enjoying himself as he is performing. Take any song of these two together and one can feel the heightened quantum of fun and entertainment.
