Song Obesession

Have you ever loved a song SO much that you listen to it ALL the time?..Day, night, before sleeping, after  waking up, while taking a shower, while driving etc etc.. And sometimes even when your not listening to it, its  playing in your mind or you just end up humming it!?!?..

You know the lyrics, you always sing along, its the most played song on your playlist, the lyrics end up on your status mssg on Whatsapp , BBM and Fb, you suddenly start thinking that the artist/lead singer is freakkin attractive, you start googling them (if you already didn't know) and just in the shortest time they become your new obsession..stealing away all your constructive attention..

The worst is when you forget everything else..music wise..all the songs you were so in LOVE with like yesterday(!) become "hmm..bleh..I'll listen to it later"..WHAT HAPPENED!?!?!..

Trust Me ..Its like a spell was cast..Music is probably like magic..An art form that transforms you..I think every song I have ever obsessed over or loved has transformed me in some way or the other..Its One of the most creative creations, ever..!

Sometimes its the lyrics, sometimes the music, sometimes the voice, and if your lucky then its the entire package..three or four minutes of sheer AWESOMENESS..

Some of the songs that I clearly remember obsessing over are:
  • The Verve- Bittersweet Symphony
  • Guns & Roses- Patience
  • Our Lady Peace- Somewhere Out There
  • Roxette- Must have been Love
  • Adele- Someone like you
  • Cocktail- jugni
  • Coldplay- Yellow
And most recently, Justin Timberlake- Mirror.. I'm TOTALLY, Completely and with all my heart in LUURRVVV with this song...

The list would be endless if I include each and every song I have been in love with since I found out what a bliss music is..
Thats me!

Anyway, gonna conclude now with the following link: 

Enjoy

The Perfect Valentine...

Hmmm.. So, is there any particular valentines day that you remember?..somebody "special" who made the day "special"?..thought of him?..Ok..Good! now STOP thinking about him..Because i'm sure the following list of hotties will anyway make you forget.. :P. 
Following is the list of some people who I would characterize as the "Perfect Valentines"

Ryan Gosling  :) --> Mr. Gorgeous alert !!...
Isn't he just amazing..if you still haven't seen crazy stupid love or my blue valentine.. Then PLEASE download them today itself and watch his brilliant acting..and off course the SuperGoodLooks are hard to miss..!

Mr. David Beckham --> Hes a dream ! :)
Everybody remembers the weird girl in Bend it like Beckham who went so gaga over him that started playing football..!..LOL. But yea, his looks and his charm are enough to make any girl go cuckoo..even just by looking at him from the television ! :o 

Mr. Ashton Kutcher--> *mwahs*
He is just SO CUTE!..whether its Alot like Love or That 70's Show..or even the new seasons of Two n a Half men or No Strings Attached...(both of which i only saw because of him and absolutely nothing else)..this guy just wins you over with his tall-goofy-casual yet sooo dreamy charm. His smile lights up a thousand bulbs..somewhere..sigh :)

 
Mr. Timberlake--> had me at "friends with benefits" 
Its true..I didn't like him so much before. Even in  the social network..I was just mildly impressed..but Friends with Benefits is so far one of the movies I can watch again & again. I guess..a lot of not liking him came from the fact that he dated Britney Spears as a teenage pop-star..Plus his music..whether in N'SYNC or individually, had a few songs I liked but wasn't hugely part of my playlist ever..


The only Desi boy who I think would fall in the category of MY PERFECT valentines..His looks are cute..given..But thats not it..I like him for the unusual movies he does (socha na tha..such a cute movie!) and the fact that he is not like his cousins ( u know those with the dhai kilo ka haath) everything else is pretty wonderful about him..except that he has a very weird looking girlfriend ! :o ..sorry.. need to keep such jealousies under control..LOL
Other contenders from the Desi Boyz team, who ALMOST made it were Ranbir Kapoor, Imran khan and uhm...well....uhm....right, NO ONE!!.. yes thats the plight.. :(

So, anyway girls..non-celebrity boyfriends will come and go and please don't judge those poor souls on celebrity standards because then you will either be forever sad or forever alone..And no one wants that..

Anyway my dearies, on a brighter note, who is YOUR PERFECT VALENTINE??.. Do watch his movie/game/show/music video today! And if you feel like comment below and share :)

Enjoy

Cocktails anyone?

So I JUST saw Cocktail..(the movie..!)..yea I know its kinda late but whatever..I was busy and well had better things to do..Not that i'm free n all now..but somedays  you just WANT a drink right? Yea..So today..This was the cocktail I downloaded! ;)  (pun intended)



Hmmm..I'm not gonna write a review..its a little too late for that.. just gonna bullet point what I liked and what I didn't..Here Goes:

--> LIKES

 * the SCRIPT..!!.. It was a typical Imtiaz Ali..and I absolutely love his writing..! :)
 the dialogues had this colloquial-ness to them..which if you ask me is awesome..i hate corny and over-the-top filmy dialogues!!..seriously..we KNOW we are watching a film..please don't make it THAT obvious.!.!.Its relate-able when they talk like real people..n thumbs up to scriptwriters of cocktail for THAT!!

 * the DIRECTION..offcourse it wasn't THE best direction ever..but i feel it had its positives...That kind of stuff actually happens you know..rather it happens JUST lyk dat..specially that scene when Deepikas dancing in a crowded club..but she feels like shes dancing all ALONE...(feeling lonely in a crowded place..!..YES.. happens ALL the time..truth of LIFE)

 * Deepika's wardrobe...that's obvious ! I actually liked Saif's too

 * Music..

* SAIF...i feel hes an underrated actor..

 * the REAL point that the movie was trying to make(which I already know & follow in life and sincerely hope & wish that other people would follow too) ..BE FRANK..Don't bottle up you feelings.. and DON'T try to be something that your not..(that's for you deepika..when you recover and try to copy that Penty person..DID NOT suit u!!)

--> DISLIKES
* Boman Irani..seemed unnecessary in the movie !

* Randeep Hooda ..won't hurt you to eat a little bit skinny boy !..Go to Salman Khan..and come back looking like a MAN...instead of a 19 year old with AIDS!!

* How the movie sort-of steered towards the notion that " screw the girls who party..fall in love with the ablaa naari !" I really felt that at some places..BUT..Seeing the movie in totality and Imtiaz Ali's previous work AND the fact that it was basically a love story..I'm gonna give it a major benefit of doubt and IGNORE that feeling..

YUP..that's about it...I hope you weren't  expecting me to rate it in stars ! :P :P

color me green~ celebrities !

Happy Sunday all you lovely people ! Although I must say, my Sunday is NOT turning out that well..I'm neck deep in assignments & submission so gonna finish a quick post today which had been lying in my drafts fr a few days..
 you probably would've heard about alot of celebrities hopping on to "be green"/ "save the Earth"/ "be Eco-friendly"  wagons but really who knows how much of whatever they claim is ACTUALLY true..
but there are a few exceptions:  yup THIS guy, Mr Leonardo DiCaprio.. is one of them..Prius (this Toyota car is an eco-freindly hybrid car btw )-driving, star co-wrote,co- produced and narrated the film 11th Hour, which discussed the state of the global environment and offered solutions to restoring the planet's ecosystems. Also, hes working on saving the polar bears from goin extinct thanx to global warming!..Pretty awesome work for a talented, sexy millionaire right?..i think so ! :) MUST check out the 11th hour HERE

 


Ok, now this particular person has a flawless taste. Not only does she look pretty but is also a REALLY good actress...yes Natalie Portman! now she n her hubby were seen at the Oscars sporting Eco-friendly rings!!.. sounded really weird to me at first but turns out the rings were made out of "Recycled Platinum" & "Conflict free diamonds" crafted by jeweler Jamie Wolf..totally would love to know what EXACTLY these things are..but sure if someone is willing to wear a recycled ring for the rest of their life..then i totally appreciate it !!..Although the ring is gorgeous..don't u think ! :) In addition, Ms Portman, also designed a vegan footwear line & is involved with Global Green USA.

Third one..Sting !.. remember "desert rose"? The rocker and his wife Trudie Styler launched a line of bags made out of elephant excrement to raise funds for a charity here in India. Styler told the Daily mail " We have been using elephant dung to make collectable bags to be sold in aid of the Mukti charity in India. It sounds pongy (smelly), but it doesn't smell !".




Next up..Cameron Diaz ! She was featured on the cover of  Vogue in June 2009 for being a nature's gal at heart !.. She is another celeb who rocks a Prius and even hitched a ride to the Oscars this year in a BMW Hydrogen 7 (ooh..fancy AND environmentally friendly !). She is also know for actively recycling, using energy saving appliances and starred in her own environmental friendly MTV reality show called Eco Trippin..!...


Lastly, Gisele Bundchen..Now this list was in no order, but if it was..she'l be pretty much at the top, but right after the Titanic hottie ! ;)
Gisele has many feathers to her green cap..She founded a Clean Water Project, has an Eco friendly skincare Line and even lives in a 22,00-square-foot-green home !..Pretty kool right?




I hope these fancy-rich ppl's contribution to the nature inspires you.. and even if it doesn't..just remember the mantra..Go Green !! :)




BTW...the Poll on your left <---
ends in 2 days .. so get voting ppl !!

Enjoy !
