Playlist Hanukkah 2009 edition


This is a first for me. Ever the avowedly tone deaf person that I am I
don’t venture going anywhere near a Playlist much less dig up my own.
However, just this once I told myself is going to be different – apparently,
my tone deafness is starting to improve and with it so is my appreciation of
world music.

So chill out on your bean bag as I give you :

Jai Ho to Pussycat dolls (meow!) for their fine rendition of A. R. Rahman’s Jai Ho !
Making music out of sound, if you ask me.

“Give me some sunshine give me some rain
Give me another chance I wanna grow up again” –from the upcoming film : 3 Idiots

( as if … fat chance of that happening). Wish I had grown up listening to this


“You Gotta Be Strong” by Desiree
http://www.lyricsdownload.com/melissa-desiree-you-gotta-be-lyrics.html
I know it’s become somewhat passé now that all three universal clowns –
Dumbsfeld, Dickhead and Bush are out of Bayt Abyat. The song is 9 years
too late but with the
White House there’s no telling about a change of guard and rhetoric; it’s a funny
place I tell you.


“ Haida Haki “ by the Girl Next Door – Najwa Karam
http://www.6lyrics.com/music/najwa_karam/lyrics/haida_haki.aspx
Building bridges of love between Lebanon and Syria
Between Israel and Palestine
Between Iraq and Kuwait
Between India and Pakistan
And between US and the rest of the World


“ Aria – the Symphony “ by Yanni.

Yani, gold is old they say.
And trust me I am not even on a BA plane but still I find
it gives me goose bumps every time this symphony comes up wafting across
the room.

"Do they know it's Christmas time" by Band Aid
Adopting this song for my playlist was no great leap of faith for me, shouldn't be for you too. Of course, it helped that it I am about as Hindoo as vindaloo.

Happy Holidays, people!

Have I Got News for You

Monsieur, le Président - "I mean you no disrespect at all, Sir, but can't help it I have this terrible terrible Crush on You."
Finding out, Brewney isn't going to feel too pleased with herself, I know. I am, as you rightly supposed, not well.....so s-experienced (if you will pardon the pun) in the afterhours department, as your excellency is. Moreover, my French simply isn't nearly half as good as my Gallic is. But I am prepared to make concessions ici. After all, part of the fun is doing it; romping that is (whatever else did you imagine) with a man who speaks a language foreign to my own, and doesn't always get what I am used to saying. It jazzes things up a notch in the erogenous zones, if you know what I mean.

Just so you know I am the least bit bothered about our age difference : you are 54 going on 24 and I am - never mind, we'll save it for another season :) As Bertrand Delanoe would have said: "Monsieurs et madames, vive la difference". Et non, that doesn't apply to gender make no mistake. Voila, we have at last found that common denominator between us in our gender. So come, let's celebrate over a bottle of Perrier with a slice of lemon and ice, please - my faith doesn't easily allow me to drink, you see. Besides who needs gin vodka and rum when one can easily get drunk on you and perhaps more importantly, your raw physicality. XOXOXO

So I ask you in full earnest; will you be my fun buddy? R.S.V.P
You will take French leave of course, and sleep over it. Promise me that.

I remain sincerely yours,
Such a sucker for bronze tanned Gallic men
