Okie....I thought I should start a similar thread (as I did in the Lata subforum) here as well.

Songs will be random, any language (unless there are language rules here like Bengali songs in Bengali forum only?!?!), and those that have not been uploaded here before (most of the time). Requests are allowed as well.

So..being Bengali, I begin with 2 Bangla numbers - very popular - and my favourites.
(i don't know the music director in these songs, or if they are filmi/non-filmi)

Song #1: Asha - Jodi Kane Kane Kichu Bole Bodhua

Song #2: Asha - O Pakhi Ure Aaye Ure Aaye

Sani.

I have partial information about both songs.
"Jodi kaane kaane kichhu" has music by RDB according to my notes.
Don't know if it is film or not.

"O paakhi uDe aaye" is from the film "Jibon rahasya". Don't have
any more info on it. But the music sounds very very Salil-esque.

Would love to know the full details of both songs including the year.

My excel sheet says the first song is from Jibon Rahasya too!!!!!

Song #3:

Daiya Yeh Main Kahan Phansi - Caravaan. music: RDB (i think)
(file is 128 Kbps)

Now..the begining of this song has a comment by someone on Asha...that's what I wanted to know...anyone knows whose commentary it is ???

And yes...Asha...the diva has sung this song simply gorgeously...!

Sani.

Sani kaunsa album se yeh gaana??

N ?

OKay...I'm confused...album is Caravan ???

I had this song for a long time...not sure where I downloaded it from...probably during the AudioGalaxy era.

I do have several Asha songs with commentaries.

Sani.

R.D. Burman

The Legends Set maybe? I think RDB does a small commentary there. Too lazy to cross check.

Sumadhur Geet #4:
Priya's request can be found below. So Priya...do I get the same treatment as Sharad (u falling at my feet......etc.) ?
(for 200 requests.....200 times falling at my feet.....hehehe.....Priya will know what I speak of )
(okay...maybe that's just a crude joke since priya is elder to me....but it is sooo temptinggggg)

Kalyanji-Anandji music in 1987 (i just made the cut mentioned by N)

Asha - Aur Is Dil Mein (female) - Imaandaar/Imandaar/Imaandar/Imandar
(those are various ways one might spell "emaadaar", to make searches easier for that movie now...ain't i smart?)

The male version is actually a duet, with Asha-ji at the ending. That's Ur Song #5:

Suresh Wadkar & Asha Bhosle - Aur Is Dil Mein

Sani.

Thanks a lot Sani!!!!
As for falling at ur feet--well let us reach 200.

First request on Asha forum...

Could someone upload the song from Zindagi Ek Jua (music: ?, year: ?) by Asha - Yeh Zindagi Hai Ek Jua

Are there two versions of this song ???

Here is Song #6, from Zindagi Ek Jua:

Asha - Na Ja Re Na Ja Pardes Piya - Zindagi Ek Jua

Click to view attachment

Thanks,
Sani

ps: sorry post 1987 gaana - had to be deleted

PRIYZ?!?!?!?! TUJEH HUA KYA HAI?? WHY SHLD WE FALL AT SANI'S FEET RE THAT WOULD MAKE US SURRENDER TO HIS WISHES OF CONVERTING US TO FANS OF HIS FAVOURITE NA

NO NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEH KABHI NAHI HO SAKTA

n

Yo SANI!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHICH YEAR RELEASE IS ZINDAGI EK JUA .. ISNT THIS A MD AND AK FILLAM?? AYYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO POST 1987 KA HAI KYA?? BETTER DELETE IT THEN

n

ASIDE:
(Nim!!! Batche ko sapne dikhakar behlate hain. Dilli abhi door hai. 200 tak pahunchte kuch bhi ho sakta hain na--tho he is going pretty fast--tab tak usko maska lagate hain )

But really Sani--thanks a million!!!!

Ya Nimu, I think Zindagi Ek Jua is 1992.
I have dled the file re. As admin U can delete it or keep it for a few hrs?

Shhhhhhhhhhhhh tab to teek hai .. Oh Sani is such a sweet guy! See Priyz hamare liye kitne kitne acche gaane upload karta hai

Sani ki jai ho

*oye Sani we are juz kiddin! Dont take us seriously re you should know by now we are two madcaps on this forum *

N

I see...hamari thread mein hamari bashing!!! Asha-to-Lata-fan-conversion to hoke hi rahega!

This is what I think I have to do now - I should just stop watching TV (mommy was right...4 hrs of TV during summer vacations is indeed too much, when I haven't really attempted to get a summer job) and even sleeping...just so that I can give some zabardast replies to u 2 madcaps, which by the way is a very mild word to describe u two.....u two are.....well....even i am outta words!

U ppl are most welcome, nonetheless. Aage aage dekho....(upload) hota hai kya.


Note 1: Maska...hmmm...i am supposed to be good at that...i get assignments from my friends purely using indian-maska. i should be able to recognize maska by now. u two are doing an awful job at it. appreciate me morrreeeeee.
Maska-fy mee moreee (yup, muska-fy can be taken as a Hinglish word)

Note 2: Thanks Priya for those 2 "mallu" songs (i used the word "malayalam" first...but she turned the table and used "mallu".....soooo.....mallu it is)
In Kuwait (high school), i had a lot of keralite friends, and they didn't like me much when i called them "mallu".
But agar main "bong", then "mallu" is just fine.

Note 3: Didn't know Zindagi Ek Jua is post 1987. My fav. actress (Madhuri) is in it, I believe. I wanna see that film again. By the way, the "Na Ja Re Pardes" song, I had to downsize its bit-rate from 256 to 192 Kbps- it is a huge song, and over 10MB. So Priya...agar aapke paas "gmail" (accepts 15MB emails, i think) ho toe, hamein PM kar dijiye.

Sani.

More maska will come when more songs do, right Nim?
Har gaane ka limited quota of maska hota hai.
192 br is just fine. Hum to 128 se oopar kabhi sochte hi nahi.
My gmail is programmed to outlook which gets blocked if large files enter. So forum is fine.

OOO Priya, you are being LAZY, Asha ji bahut dukh payenge aap ki ye ada se!!!!
Jaiye abhi abhi cross check kijiye!!! Otherwise i will be a better FAN of geeta Dutt that you of asha ji, righ?

Ooo...this reminds meee...that song with the commentary...check its ID-tag...and U'll find the answer!

Why are U so interested in Asha's songs?
What have we here? A closet fan?
Profoundly shocked, Bappa!!!

Waise I had checked a little after making the 'lazy' post. It is indeed the Legends Set wala commentary.

Song #7:

Asha - Saiyan Aaye Naa - Pyara Dushman. Music Director: Nisar Bazmi ???

File is at 155 Kbps. The sad thing is...the song is only 1:11min - I wish this song could have gone a bit longer...or am I missing anything ???

Click to view attachment

What Priya...satisfied with only 128 Kbps..!!! Look at Mrs.T and me....even if we have 256 Kbps, we want 320 Kbps (which is actually what CD-Quality is, at 320). So...at 128, U R missing more than half of the information the original song had contained! Mrs.T has the best ear for quality. She can spot "musical noise" that only a sound-sensitive creature can detect!

Well...U have Ur song (above). Now...where is the "maska". Chalo...shuru ho jao!

Sani.

Thanks a ton Sani. U are a dear.

Nisar Bazmi is a famous Pakistani MD.

Sani, with a poor connection 128 kbs is a blessing.
Only when I got to the net cafe can I dream of uling/dling big files.

Such a short snippet!!! But seems like that is all.
On hearing the song realised this is obviously not a Nisar Bazmi composition as he left India in the 50s I think. This song is from a 1980 film Pyara Dushman (the Bazmi one was 1955).
MD is Bappi Lahiri and lyrics are by Anjaan.

I seeee...small song.....small maska. Well..with the below song...I should be given some terrific maskas.

Song #8:

Asha - Raja Tohe Nainon Se - Ek Shriman Ek Shrimati (1969)
music: Kalyanji-Anandji

(song is 6:12min, and file is high quality @ 224 Kbps)

Click to view attachment

Well...no doubt...she is quite the Diva.

Sani.

Whoooo this is a big file--will have to wait till I go to the net cafe.
Thanks a lot though in advance.

Song #9: (as requested by a future Lata-fan)

Asha - Awam - Kaise Murli Bajayi Ghanshyam

music: Ravi (?), lyrics: Hasan Kamal (?)

Click to view attachment

Comments:

i) I hope the above 6:09min, 146 Kbps song drains all Ur (priya's) bandwidth ....kiddinggg.....okie...maybe not such a good joke.

ii) Contrary to popular belief (aka Priya's hallucination ), this song is a solo, and not a duet with Mahendra Kapoor - unless maybe there is a seperate duet version that I do not know about. Flawless singing by Asha-ji.

iii) Here is a modified article that many might be interested in:

"The 27th Film Music Awards were presented on Dec. 17 to the winners -producer B. R. Chopra, music director Ravi, singer Asha Bhosale and lyricist Hasan Kamal for the song "Kaise Murli Bajaye Ghanshyam" in 'Awam', and producer Uma Prakash Bhende, music director Srikant Telang singer Padmaia Phenane and lyricist Shantaram Nandgaonkar for the title song in "Prema Sathi Wattel Te. Sani Thakur, who later became the most famous and most successful Asha-to-Lata converter, just turned 4 years old then. He could write crap so brilliantly, that one would would almost beleive that the crap were true facts."

Original article can be found at:

http://www.studio-systems.com/Playback&Fas.../February/9.htm

(this website has a LOT of very interesting stuff that I have been reading over the years. it also has tons of rare pics - all scattered, however)

iiii) I think I am spending more time with Asha songs these days than with Lata's. Well Lata fans...don't fret...I am on a mission....to convert 2 mighty tigresses, who are rather very ziddi. But the future is already predicted, they will bow before Lata sooner or later. I am just trying to make them realize that sooner IS better.

iiiii) Yes..I do know my Roman numerals - I am just trying something new.

Sani.

Thanks a million Sani.

Yes Sani, U keep giving us Asha songs and in gratitude we just might become Lata fans. (Nim yeh bait kaisa tha )

Sorry Priya not me. No bribe will work on me on this particular matter.

N

Bribe nahi re, usko bewakoof bana rahi hoon na--so he keeps giving more Asha songs.
Well if U bought it, he will too.

As you say...

All Asha fans - here's a random song that I like - from the suspense film 'Apradhi kaun' 1957 - Bimal Roy production with music by Salil Chowdhury and lyrics of Majrooh. Song picturised on Mala Sinha

This version was taken from the original film soundtrack

enjoy !

sri

P.S. TERRIBLY SORRY ... but i am unable to u/l the song despite several attempts. I keep getting the following message :

"The total filespace required to upload all the attached files is greater than your per post or global limit. Please reduce the number of attachments or the size of the attachments."

what could be the problem ? the file size is less than 3 MB - in the past i have u/l much larger files.

Nimii, can you or anyone else help, please ? thanks

Ok...i went to my controls and found a 'manage your attachments' link ... deleted one of the earlier files which was u/l twice and am trying again.. hope to be successful !

here goes..... NO LUCK - same problem !!

I GIVE UP !!

sri

Srikant, please first compress the file using the winzip or winrar utility and then upload it. If you are trying to upload a mp3 file or any audio file without compressing the forum is not set to attach such files.

Kindly follow the instructions.

1. Choose the file of upload and compress using winzip/winrar. All you need to do is right click and you are sure to get the option to compress like Add to Archive.. of zip or rar

2. choose the compressed file using the browse button

3. And then click on the attach button.

I am sure you will not find any problem.

N

By the way where are you trying to upload?

You need to add in the posting. Just like you posted a message. You have to use the reply window and at the bottom of the page you will notice the file attachment provided.

I hope you understood what I am trying to convey.

N

I see...so Nimii is a tought cookie to break! Interesting..she seems to be all serious above (notice the lack of use of smileys!! )

Everyone succumbs to bribes sooner or later...Nimii would not be any exception, I would guess. Perhaps the below song might do something. It was a request by a future Lata-fan (and N's best friend....hmmm...who could that be ?!?!? )

Song #10

Asha - Aji Rahne Do Chanda Badli Mein - Chowkidar (year--> 1974 ?? 1975 ??)

music: Madan Mohan Kohli, lyrics: Rajendar Kishan

Song is 5:14 min long, and at 160 Kbps (so moderately high quality). Enjoy!

Sani.

Nimii,

Thanks for replying .. but the procedure i follow is exactly what you have mentioned and i have already u/l several zipped files successfully over the last 2 weeks. After yesterday night's fiasco, I tried again this morning- twice - but no success. I can't figure out what the trouble is.

After i click on the 'add this attachment' - the file begins to upload .... and just when it is ALMOST FULLY UPLOADED, i get the error message which i have mentioned earlier - it's quite frustrating, as you can imagine

I am going to try one more 'last' time with this mail attempt .. let's see

SORRY ... NO LUCK - I got the same error message again !! I tried shortening the file name this time - just to try something different... but no luck. The zipped file size is only 2.94 MB - i can't understand what the probem could be.

is there a limit on uploading ? in any case, i deleted one earlier u/l of more than 3 MB .. just to see if that would solve the problem ... but that didn't make a difference.

Now it is really intriguing me ... need some technical help on this one

sri

I think I will report your query to Pradeep, I am sure he will be able to help.

I cant figure out what is going wrong when you are trying to upload.

N

Thanks, Nimii

Meanwhile I have sought some help in circumventing the problem for the time being ... i have sent the file to Sani's yahoo account, to upload on my behalf - hope that works at least !!

Sri

I have notified the other admins and one of them will definitely sort this problem.

Plz bear with inconvenience caused.

N

Here you go Mr. Srikant :

Song #11 (requested by Priya)

Asha - SHAHENSHAH (1953 - thanks Mahesh -) - Aai Baharen Leke
music: Sachin Dev Burman, lyrics: Sahir Ludhiyanvi

Click to view attachment

Priya...the song is not complete - I think it is missing some parts in the begining. The ending of the song has begining of some other song too, not sure which one. Which means...if someone here has a better and complete version, please do upload. Above song is 3:18 min long, and only at 126 Kbps.

Earthmusic.Net says this song was sung by Lata - I do not think so. The voice is very Asha. It does not say the release year of the film either.

Which reminds me...where did this Priya go anyways ??? Kahan gayi aap, Priya-jiiiiii??? Maybe she exhausted all her bandwidth (thanks to my rather high quality uploads )...but I thought U had a nice internet cafe nearby?!?!

Enjoy the song nonetheless,
Sani.

Aayi baharen leke raaten pyar ki...Asha
Shahenshah (1953)

Tumhare jaise bahut saare batchon ko sata rahi hoon.

Song #12: (as requested by some bachcha's friend)

Asha - Ae Tum Kahan Chale Pyare

Click to view attachment

I am not sure of the movie-name - is it Pyara Dushman (as per HCD) or Pyar Ka Rog (as per Earthmusic.net) ???

I uploaded another song from the same album before (i think) - Saiyan Aaye Na - is also from the movie Pyar Ka Rog (music: Bappi Lahiri), I think, and it says it is a duet (Asha and Kishore) - so in that case what U uploaded before (1:11 min) must be severely incomplete! Anyone here has the entire number ??? - please do upload if U do.

Sani.

P.S: Pyare Priya - appke list mein bahut mistakes hain - fix them

U know Priya - I think the movie is Pyar Ka Rog for that song (Saiyan Aaye Na). Needs to be confirmed.

Sani bete!!!!!! Thanks for all the songs. Mere list mein kya--woh mera list thode hi na hai
VN book lists no Pyar Ka Rog. Only Pyara Dushman-1980.
