And if you're an Emraan fan: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2015/12/emraan-hashmi-songs.html



Also here are a few other songs I like:


Aitraaz

Aitraaz  (2004) is a remake of the 1994 film Disclosure (which I like as well) starring Michael Douglas and Demi Moore. It's about businessman Raj Malhotra (Akshay Kumar) who is happily married to Priya (Kareena Kapoor) and they are expecting a baby. Then he meets his boss' wife, who is also his ex-girlfriend Sonia (Priyanka Chopra). 

Sonia still wants Raj but he doesn't want her anymore. She sets out to seduce him and when it fails she decides to get revenge by accusing him of raping her, even though she was the one sexually harassing him! But Raj won't let her win and prepares to fight her in court. The movie is also said to be based on the real life case of American basketball player Kobe Bryant.

I've only seen this once but remember it being a good film. Being Bollywood it's a lot less sexual than the original! But I think it's a bit racier than the average Bollywood film. I like most of the songs.

 Here's Gela Gela Gela, my favourite song. I think this is during Raj and Priya's honeymoon but I'm not 100% sure. The playback singers are Adnan Sami and Sunidhi Chauhan.







This is I Wanna Make Love To You, the scene where Sonia is trying to seduce Raj. Sunidhi sings this one too. There's a male version on the album as well, sung by Kunal Ganjawala.





                                    

And this is Tala Tum Tala Tum (I think it means something like "Quagmire?). In this scene Raj is at a work party with his boss Ranjit Roy (Amrish Puri), Sonia and Priya. I think it's after Raj rejected Sonia but it's a long time since I saw it, so I may be wrong, lol. The singers are Alka Yagnik, Jayesh Gandhi and Udit Narayan.

Update: I did a search and "talatum" was described as either "stormy" or "continuity". I thought the English subtitle translation was "quagmire" when I saw it years ago but I may be remembering wrong! 



                                        

    



Humraaz

Humraaz (2002) is a remake of the Hollywood film A Perfect Murder. See the link to Bardaasht above for the storyline. I think Humraaz means something like "Confidant", will have to check my DVD English subtitles!

This is Pyaar Kar. It's one night on the cruise ship and Priya is carrying out her and Karan's plan to get Raj (the ship owner) to fall in love with her. Udit Narayan sings on this one too. The other singers are Shaan and Kavita Krishnamurthy. Himesh Reshammiya did the music for this but he doesn't sing this time. Check out the Awarapan and Emraan Hashmi links for songs he does sing. :)






Here's Sanam Mere Humraaz. It's a scene between Raj and Priya. I think Sanam Mere Humraaz is something like, "You are my confidant" but I'm not entirely sure. The singers are Kumar Sanu and Alka Yagnik.





Hope you had a great Christmas! Happy Boxing Day and hope you enjoy the videos. :)

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences.  The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the

Debut XG Mini Album

Japanese girl group XG have released their 1st mini album. It's called NEW DNA and was released on 27th September. XG (whose name is short for Xtraordinary Girls) made their debut in March last year and have brought out 7 singles so far- Tippy Toes, MASCARA, LEFT RIGHT/SHOOTING STAR double single), GVRL GANG , TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. The first 3 songs (or 4 including the double single) aren't on the mini album. The concept behind NEW DNA is that of being a "new species" free from conventions and limitations .  Although the group is Japanese, their creation was inspired by Korean music and they are based in South Korea. They have released songs in English so far and have been described as a global group and "X-pop". NEW DNA consists of 6 tracks- HESONO, X-GENE, GVRL GANG, TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. It is an R'n'B/pop mini album with influences from other genres, such as K-pop, dance and hip hop. My favourite song is PUPPET SHOW. I al
