But thats not what this post is going to be talking about... heck I didnt know that "The Buggles" even existed until I googled the song... which I have heard a number of times in a number of places... argh! I digress again...
I wanted to talk about the death of Indipop and the role of Bollywood... but theres other more qualified people to do that... and frankly... I am not in the mood to start a rant which will probably include several death threats and wild accusations of "ALLEGED" plagiarism... Then there will be my usual lamentation about remixes and how the music videos that they make these days take the concept of 'Sex Sells' a little too seriously... I mean... have some god damned pride in your own music for f***s sake... (Please excuse the profanity)...
But... to celebrate the short lived golden era of Indipop (read: The 90's)... heres a few numbers you might enjoy....
K.K. - Aap Ki Dua
Bombay Vikings - Kya Soorat Hai
Agosh - Paisa
Silk Route - Dooba Dooba
Lucky Ali - Oh Sanam
Euphoria - Mantra
Despite my defeatist outlook in this matter... artists like Kailash Kher and Atif are giving me hope... even their music videos dont have too many (or any) half naked woman cavorting in a vulgar manner...
