:yes: Got both of them on there too. Do you also tend to like the older songs, then? In practice most of what I have tends to be drawn from 'classics' anthologies, because I haven't really found a good system for keeping up with the newer stuff. Most of my Indian friends seem to do that primarily by joining mail-order DVD-rental places (no 'bricks-and-mortar' specialists around here) and there are quite a few of them now, even Kollywood and Tollywood specialists and so on. But in practice I don't have much time for that, and it's hard to keep up with the music if you're not keeping up with the movies. Or more correctly I guess, to find the type(s) of music I like--some students have pointed me to a couple Internet radio stations focused on filmi, and I'm sure there are plenty more, but those sites tend to be geared towards people who know the current films and for the most part I don't. So generally I wind up getting annoyed at the amount of banal, unimaginative stuff I have to listen to before I find something interesting, and give up.

Yeah, most of my stuff is from the sixties and seventies, since that's when i lived in Pakistan. I've tried to get the five-disc anthologies of most of those well-known Indian singers. We used to listen to Radio Ceylon in Pakistan (yes, before it was called Sri Lanka) and tape Indian songs on reel-to-reel tape off the radio. So, it's mostly the classics. I try not to be too indignant of the Bollywood music these days (though it's hard)...don't wanna sound too "oh, the kids don't know what real music is like anymore." But, yes it's all pretty unemotive, as you said.

Damn you, Yolland, you've got me missing my childhood...
