We have discussed more than 11000 songs by now. I had not thought even in my wildest of dreams that we will one day arrive at such a figure. My view was that we will have about 2500 songs in the blog and then we will not songs left to be discussed. 🙂

aaye bahaar ban ke
lubhaa kar chale gaye. . .
These lines would apply to so many artists, especially those whose careers in the industry have been short lived, or curtailed for various reasons. But whatever is the measure of the duration of their work in the industry, it is their creations that continue to delight us, and keeps the memories alive. Even if it is one song. And the fun part is the process of discovery that continues. Some of these lesser known artists ended up working for lesser known banners and films. Their music would only sometimes make it to the mainstream and popular cinema. Most of the time they created songs for movies that remained unknown and obscure. Today, when we dig up such unheard gems, that first encounter is such a charm and a pleasure.
Gopal Bahadur Singh is one such songwriter, whose work mostly remained confined to religious an stunt action films in the 1950s and 60s. We are more familiar with his pen name – Gopal Singh Nepali or GS Nepali, the poet who gave us the timeless bhajan – “Darshan Do Ghanshyam Nath Mori Ankhiyaan Pyaasi Re” in the film ‘Narsi Bhagat’ (1957).
Remembering GS Nepali on the anniversary of his passing away today (17th April).

MISSING GEMS FROM THE GOLDEN 50s….Song No. 16
————————————————
Moving from 1958, we come near the end of the decade with the year 1959. It was about 12 years since the upheaval in the film industry with the mass migration of film artistes from India to Pakistan, post Partition. Even after that some movements were still going on with late goers. Fortunately normalcy had returned to the industry by that time, much faster than was expected by the world watchers. Unlike Pakistan-who had to build a fresh new industry in their country- our infrastructure was intact, the base was wide and solid and vacancies were filled up promptly, by artistes waiting in the wings.

Ok so now we know – प्यार किसे कहते हैं। (what is this thing we call love). Explained quite lucidly in this song.
jabse mili teri meethi mohabbat
chocolate ka khaana chhod diya
Discovering your sweet love
Have forsaken even chocolate
Aah, what a sublime sacrifice, forsaking the delicious trappings of this world, all for having found love. Nothing, no other sacrifice could be more convincing.

MISSING GEMS FROM THE GOLDEN 50s….Song No-14
————————————————–
Today’s song is from a 1958 film-Night Club.
With great determination and very much reluctantly, have moved away from the songs of 1957. As I mentioned I had shortlisted 17 songs from this year alone. It was ridiculous ! With songs from other years, the series would have become a marathon of about 30 odd songs. This is not acceptable to me. Stretching ONE theme for such a long time,in my opinion loses its meaning,charm and writer’s interest. We have already enjoyed 5 Gems from 1957. This much laxity was enough for 1957. The balance songs, I am sure,will find their way to this Blog,anyway.
