Bodhisattva in Recovery
On occaision I watch the Hindi channel. Although somewhat garish by North American standard, I love watching Indian video's. They are SO colourful! I don't mind the pop music either. I had a cabbie recently who turned down a song I was enjoying, thinking I am sure, that it was driving me nuts. He was quite delighted when I asked him to turn it back up!!! He was SO surprised. You have to understand, I don't speak a word of the language, but I love the feel of the music. It is so rich! However I do prefer things like Ravi Shankar and more classical sounds.Hema said:EEEEEEEEE! Someone on RF loves Indian music!!!! Do you look at Indian movies or just listen to the songs? When you say songs, do mean devotional songs such as bhajans or songs from movies? I'll PM you one of these days for more info, if you don't mind **bats eyelids innocently and puts on a cute puppy face**
I saw Ravi once live (He was the warmup act for George Harrison back in 1974.) Sadly he doesn't come to my part of the world much. I was disappointed when he walked off stage and the "real" show began. It was a bit anti-climactic. I could have listened to him for another hour or two easily.
