Lyrics:
(verse 1)
Sab faraib kay naam nayey hain diyey
Saarey rangon mein ikk siyah hee kiyon dikhay

(verse 2)
Saaree taaberain khwab mangey abb nayey
Iss jahaan mein chaar su khalaa lagey

(pre-chorus)
Mein ney dhoonda baar baar, Bayshumaar chehroan mein
Ikk gharee ka aitebaar, Nagawaar kiyon lagay

(chorus)
Kiyon kabhee tham na sakay: Azaar yeh
Kiyon kabhee kam na huway: Faaslay

(bridge)
Behtay baadaloan mein bhee; Baar haa yuun lagay
Saaree bhuulee tasverain; Manzar-e-aam pay

(verse 3)
Intizaar aur aarza kee oarh mein
Ikk malaal aur lazwaal aas mein

(pre-chorus)
Mein nay socha hoon faraar, Maanee haar tum sab say
Par yeh dekho kaisa pyar, Hon na paar raastay

(chorus)
Kiyon kabhee tham na sakay: Azaar yeh
Kiyon kabhee kam na huway: Faaslay

(bridge)
Behtay baadaloan mein bhee; Baar haa yuun lagay
Saaree bikhree tasverain; Waqt kay jaam mein

Small Blue Things...


Two absolute apt & darling little ditties to warm up the icy sound-waves


Aboslute restrained blistering bouts of infectious indie sensibilities, a semi-epic clocking in at just above 7 minutes.

Fixing an eye on the hopeful/In a heartless room you'll be done soon
The snow is falling down/And the whole damn town is covered with white
It's obvious that trust is the catch and the magnet/ That could pull you through this braille night
Where nothing's free and you just can't see/How to sacrifice what you need to be

A
bout the female voice of the band: Elizabeth Mitchell is an American singer, composer, and guitarist for the New York indie band Ida[1]. While a student at Brown University, Mitchell performed as a duo with fellow class of 1990 classmate Lisa Loeb, called Liz and Lisa. Mitchell sang backup on Lisa Loeb's first hit, "Stay (I Missed You)", which topped the charts from the soundtrack to Reality Bites.
--------------------

And ofcourse Suzanne Vega's return to brilliance, her re-interpretations of classic dwindling eclectic folk brilliance... for people who have understood the evolution of alternative and viable AND the kiddies out there discovering the joy of indie, give this dittie a spin and grab the record.



I am cold against your skin
You are perfectly reflected

I am lost inside your pocket

I am lost against your fingers

I am falling down the stairs

I am skipping on the sidewalk

I am thrown against the sky

I am raining down in pieces

I am scattering like light…

From the official website www.suzannevega.com
Suzanne Vega reinterprets her best-loved songs in imaginative and intimate renderings The first of 4 CDs in Suzanne’s Close-Up Series. Vol. 1: Love Songs includes: "Marlene on the Wall," "Caramel," "Gypsy" and "Small Blue Thing."
"These are songs that I have written over the years and now re-recorded. I wanted to give you, the listener, a small sort of gift These are the songs I consider love songs, although they are also songs of attraction, flirtation, and confrontation. Thanks for listening."
With Love,
SUZANNE

Dye Corduroy's Latest Offering - Kiya Tum Ho Wohee


The latest Dye Corduroy track is all set and raring to burn holes in your iPods and ears. Beware: The chorus can stick to you like taffy on a hot wet Wednesday.

Its called "Kiya Tum Ho Wohee" & contrary to the obvious its not a lament, it's not about love and all your gooey gremlins, its about alienation of self, friends, people and civilization. Hence the lack of recognition and the query - kiya tum ho wohee?


Stream or right-click-save-target-as to download the mp3:

Dye Corduroy - Kiya Tum Ho Wohee


{lyrics}

Kiya Tum Ho Wohee

Darmiyaan;
Mein gumm yahaan;
Ikk kasak kee iss kashish mein khwab saarey;
Baysahaarey

Raastay;
Dhoop dhullay;
Waqt kay iss dasht mein who dhoondtay hain;
Behtay dhaarey

Kiya Tum Ho Wohee?

Maaverah;
Bay bahaa;
Silsiloan kay sahiloan pay woh khara hai;
Aik kinaarey

Ghair mein;
Andhair jahaan;
Manziloan kee chaoon mein bhee jaltay bhujtay;
Yeh iraaday

Kiya Tum Ho Wohee?

Aasmaan;
Par hai ikk nishaan;
Kehkashaan kee goad mein say chinn kay bikhjray;
Tootay taarey

Kiya Tum Ho Wohee?
