Sick Day Songs

I’m still sick.  Way too sick to deal with anything emotional or challenging like a post about a movie, or even gossip news or box office.  Instead, I am sitting around listening to super soothing songs.  Just in case you are ever this sick (and I hope you aren’t!  This is terrible!), I’ll share my play list with you.

Kishore Kumar’s Death Anniversary

Unfortunately for poor Ashok Kumar, his brother Kishore died on his birthday.  After which Ashok stopped celebrating his birthday.  I didn’t stop celebrating it, but I will acknowledge Ashok’s wishes by also putting up a post in honor of Kishore’s death.  And also, I am still really sick and a Kishore themed post seems like something I can do without thinking too much.

Happy Ashok Kumar’s Birthday!!!

I am super sick, so my brain head typing fingers aren’t really working.  I can’t handle anything complicated, like my usual “reasons I love you style birthday posts”.

Happy Birthday J.P Dutta! Famous Director of War Films, Born One Day After Gandhi!

Almost missed this one! Which isn’t that big of a deal, JP Dutta is important but not THAT important.  Only, I really really love LOC Kargil (check out my two part post of favorite quotes!), and I am pretty fond of Refugee too.  So I might as well scrape up a half dozen or so reasons to celebrate and love him on his birthday.

Happy National Coffee Day!!!

I am celebrating by NOT having coffee!  Because it’s Thursday, and I never have coffee on Thursdays.  Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, yes.  And then I detox for two days, sleep all weekend, and get back on the horse again on Monday.  Anyway, I thought it would be a good topic for a theme songs post.
