Parties - Then and Now

After reaching home from the office, as usual, I was watching Tv with my cousin/roommate and watched SS (Southern Spice) and watched the songs played there. Since the bandh of all the Star TVs program and English channel, we have no much choice but watch other channels like Hallmark (the only English Channel), Zoom, Zee Music, B4U Music...:(. Recently, we found out that this SS Channel (which we never bothered to check) played English songs from 23:30(?) till...I don't know cos we never stayed up that long to find out when this program ends. All in all, all songs were great, from classic, today's, country, rock, heavy metal, etc..all mixed and best of all, no long ads and not as regularly as other channels.

So, back on the subject - as I was saying, we started chatting and talk about all stuffs...like what happened at work, what she did, some funny experiences with customers, etc. The SS channel gave songs like BSB, Blue etc etc.

Then we started talking about parties.

Earlier days, while we were still really young, from the time we reached our teenage..we too used to have parties. Since there are no disc or pub in Mizoram, almost all parties were house parties. So, whenever a prty is planned, there will be some good number of dance music and slow music was a must, means that there should be slow dance moment after 'The Grind'. Slow dancing was really really important.

So, those days, a party planner or a party 'thrower' would prepare for may be two hours of the 'Grind' numbers and after that the scene or the music should be changed into slow music. That's when lovers danced closed to each other, kissing etc etc, lol. Songs such as These arms will never let your heart break (don't remember th singer but I think it was a boy bad who sang I Swear, not sure though), Do you still? (La Bouche), Till Death do us apart, Right here waiting, I will be your man. Then some years passed and the songs include numbers from BSB, Westlife, etc.

Who was the boy I first danced my slow number with? umm..could't recall his name, lol.

And now the party these days. I hardly see slow numbers played these days. Even at house parties, we no longer play these slow numbers. Even if we do played slow numbers, it was simply meant for relaxation, no one bother to dance in the slo number anymore. In fact, slow dancing was quite romantic :).

Here in Delhi, most parties I go to are disc/pub where slow numbers are a 'No no'. And yes, we do dance together...holding hands or arms all over each other but then musics are of hip hop, club, house etc. No matter how much you want to hold each other close and dance, you need to move to the beat of the music...which is fast, lol. C'mon, you cannot slow-danced in hip hop lest you want to attract all the attention...looking awkward, lol.

Miss those slow-danced days.

Hello God

Chorus:
Hello God, are you out there? Can you hear me, are you listenin' any more?
Hello God, if we're still on speakin' terms Can you help me like before?
I have questioned your existence, My resistance leaves me cold
Can you help me go the distance?
Hello God, hello, hello

Verse 1:

This old world has gone to pieces Can we fix it, is there time?
Hate and violence just increases We're so selfish, cruel and blind
We fight and kill each other In your name, defending you
Do you love some more than others? We're so lost and confused

Chorus:

Hello God, are you out there? Can you hear us, are you listenin' any more?
Hello God, if we're still on speakin' terms Can you help us like before?
Oh, the free will you have given We have made a mockery of
This is no way to be livin', We're in great need of your love Hello God

Chorus:

Hello God, can you grant us Love enough to make amends
(Hello God) Is there still a chance That we could start again
Hello God, we've learned our lesson Dear God, don't let us go More than ever
Hello God, hello, hello Hello God, we really need you We can't make it without you (Hello God) We beseech you In the name of all that's true
Hello God, please forgive us For we know not what we do

Tag:
Hello God, give us one more chance to prove ourselves to you
Hello, God; hello, God

whew...

The past two weeks had been so hectic...could hardly find the time to even breath, lol. Had breathing not the necessity of life and a sign of life, I won't even breath....that's how busy I was, lol...am not exgarrating *GRIN*

I was so busy that I could not even find the time to check my blog...forget about update. I tought that I would update more regularly but that was in vain.

In my last post, I had metioned that there was no wrk for two days and I was happy. Then, Monday was my off and when I went to office on Tuesday, I was horrified to learn that there were 800+ emails. And the reason that there was no work that day was because of bug in the software *sniff*. Since that day...busy..busy..busy

I hate to stay overtime and so I always make sure that I met my target.....but still had to stay for OT. I am not saying that I hate my job but I no longer like it either.

How can I workd best? Well, give me system with sound card installed and a head phone and I will work without complain and might be willing to even stay for over time hee hee..oh..the keyboard must be good too :P

Lots of things happened. Shocked to read about Anna Nicole's death; someone so alive and whom you see on the internet almost everyday..dead..shocking. I am surprised but I am saddened by her death..still so young.

Cinderella..

Scarlett as Cinderella.... Can't help it but I love this picture so much so I decided to upload it here. Got this from Justjared

Love this Prince Philip too :)
