Songs you MUST listen to before you die!!

(Apologies if they are completely unfamiliar to you. But cant help)

Ruk Ja Raat ke Theher ja re Chanda, beete na milan ki reina.. - Lata Mangeshkar.
"Everything comes to a standstill, once the song is over. One of my favorites."


Dheere Dheere chal, chand gagan me - Rafi (Love Marriage).
"Slow down and enjoy the journey of life."



Aa ja sanam madhur chandni mein hum - Raj Kapoor.
"A great melody."


Bhuli hui yaadon mein, mujhe itna na satao.. Mukesh.
"A substitute for cigarettes and alcohol."



Chingaari koi bhadke... Kishore Kumar (Amar Prem).

"Takes you away from everything, literally. Another good substitute."



Suhana safar aur yeh mausam hasin... Mukesh (Madhumati).
"You smile atleast thrice during the song if you listen to it carefully."



Yeh dil tum bin kahin lagta nahin hum kya kare.. Rafi-Lata.
"One can be sure to hit the previous track button of the media player as soon as the next track starts."


Kisi ki muskurahaton pe ho nissar... Mukesh (Anari).
"You begin to prepare a balance sheet of your life."


Yeh hai bambai, yeh hai bambai.. meri jaan - Rafi- Geeta Dutt.
"Nicely portrayed picture of Mumbai thats applicable even today, but more importantly a wonderful waltz song from that era."
