Yes, it was time that I return to my love for mountains and this time it is a compilation of songs that I never leave behind when I travel to those magical snowy peaks. *_*
- Maahi Ve from Highway – For obvious reasons and also Rahman’s magic.
- Preet from Khubsurat – The echo in the music and the voice make it perfect for the mountains. Another reason could be that I heard it for the first time while travelling in a bus in McLeodganj.
- Ye Haseen Vadiyaan from Roja – Like every other song from Roja, this one was way ahead of its time and the lyrics are so so beautiful.
- Naam Ada Likhna from Yahaan – Shot in Kashmir (sorry for the video quality), again the echoing factor makes it a song for the mountains.
- Khul Kabhi from Haider – Kashmir at its best and Vishal Bhardwaj too.
- Shikayatein from Lootera – When the part in the mountains begins, my love for the movie makes it all the more special.
- Deewana Hua Badal – I heard it for the first time on some music/antakshri show sung by someone else, and what imagery man! A cloud going crazy. This has to be on every nature lover’s list!
- Sham from Aisha – A very trip-py one.
- Tu Bin Bataye from Rang De Basanti – Rahman and that voice!
- Big Rock Candy Mountain from O Brother, Where Art Thou? – Please please I beg of you to watch this video, it’s like one of the cute-est things ever.
