Rock On...My own movie experience

Here I am, writing at 3:30 am in the morning...so yes, the movie Rock On did have an impact on me. I think it will touch all of us who have lost out on a dream just to be able to survive in the practical world and still are hanging on to the tiniest thread that still has us connected to it. After watching the movie, I got home and before I knew it was writing my own version of Rock On Song...So for all its worth, here it goes:

Udasi si hai kyu chhayi huyi
Khayalonko bhi neend aayi huyi
To...Bolo na chup ho kyu
To...Bolo na gum ho kyu, tum huye bolo na
Wo O Wo O O bolo na
Chup ho kyu huye bolo na
Ab to bolo, baat ye samajho
Kuchh to bolo

Baatome teri hai jaadu
Aankhome teri adaaye
Bhula hu teri muskurahatoko main
Tujhe dekhake main khoya
Raatoko tanaha soya
Khwabome teri ho chuka tha gum yu main
Ab...Chhodo na sare gum
Phir...Se hase yuhi hum
Wo O O Bolo na
Wo O Wo O O Bolo na
Chup ho kyu huye bolo na
Ab to bolo
Baat ye samajho kuchh to bolo
Udasi si hai........

After writing and composing a tune on this, I can't even tell you how happy I felt with myself. You never realise the little things that give you the most happiness are sometimes on the back seat because of all the other things you have in your life. This movie took me back to my hidden part which was always there but somehow was lost somewhere in the back of my memory.

Now that I was on a high, I decided to see if I could write more and came up with a semi-classical version of my Rock On geet. You will see why I am calling it a geet instead of song as its so different from my first one that I couldn't believe it myself that I composed it one after another. So here goes the next one:

Ghir ghir aaye badara badara
Sawan kyu na aaye
Jiyara mora ghabaraye haaye
Ghir ghir aaye badara badara

Bhor bhaye jab panchhi gaaye
Manava mora aas lagaye
Phir bhi kyu na barase naina
Aas jiyaki kyu nahi jaaye
Jiyara mora ghabaraye haaye
Ghir ghir aaye badara badara
Ghir ghir aaye...Badara...Badara...

After writing this one, I had to share with all of you my euphoria....I feel like I am back somehow, as if I was lost before but now I know which way I need to go...Does that even make sense or is it just me talking at 4am, half asleep. All I can say is a BIG thank you to Rock On and makers of it, because of whom I got in touch with the old me, who was sleeping for a long long time....
