Alisha Chinai – Made In India

Being in India for the first time this week was amazing and this Friday’s post is a tribute to a childhood song that I listened to as it received airplay on Channel [V] Asia. I can’t believe I would have listened to this song in primary school without understanding the lyrics other than the English […]

Daler Mehndi – Ho Jayegi Balle Balle

Next week I will be in India on a work trip. It will be my first time in Delhi and hopefully we will make our way to visit the Taj Mahal. So, in preparation of my trip, I was trying to revisit my memory bank of India songs that I listened to when I was […]

Stooshe – Black Heart

Thanks to getting ready for this post, this is the first time I have seen the video. I heard this song on radio occassionally but it really stuck in my head from a compilation CD my daughter bought from a Car Boot Sale. Stooshe are a British girl group from London, consisting of three members […]

Donna Lewis – I Love Your Always Forever

As Valentine’s Day rolls around each year, many of us find ourselves caught in a whirlwind of emotions. For some, it’s a day filled with romantic gestures, heartfelt declarations, and cherished memories. For others, like myself, it’s a day that feels overly commercialized, perhaps even a bit contrived. However, amidst differing perspectives, there’s always room […]

Britney Spears – Toxic

I just finished streaming The Woman In Me by Britney Spears. Michelle Williams did a good job narrating the book as it made it very engaging. Looking back at the stories in the book, I can remember how mean the media was when Britney was at her lowest point. Without wanting to spoil the story […]

Neon Jungle – Trouble

Who doesn’t like girl bands? Well, I re-stumbled on this tune that was in my spotify playlist and thought it was good to resurface it especially since the Spice Girls got their own Royal Mail tribute stamps 30 years after their debut. Neon Jungle was a British girl group that burst onto the music scene […]

Man and Woman Dancing

Sophie Ellis-Bextor – Murder On The Dancefloor

I watched Saltburn on Prime and the lead actor danced to this song in one of the iconic scenes of the film. I remember listening to this track when I was in high school and I was convinced that the singer was an English Doll. Sophie Ellis-Bextor, a captivating British singer, songwriter, and model, graces […]

Jimmy Ray – Goin To Vegas

Well, I hope to be able to be in Vegas the end of this year but let me take you back to the time when I was in the early stages of high school in Malaysia. I managed with a long lost friend, a weekly music chart of top hits similar to Rick Dees US […]

Howie Day – Collide

It’s finally Friday and I can’t believe this song is 20 years old now! Howie Day, an American singer-songwriter, gained widespread recognition with his heartfelt ballad “Collide.” Released in 2004 as part of his album “Stop All the World Now,” the song resonated with listeners through its emotive lyrics and Day’s soulful vocals. “Collide” beautifully […]
