The utterly sickening #KDrama scandal that's blowing up put me in mind of a long-time favourite song from #Pyaasa. This song was banned from radio play for decades in India for its scathing indictment of exactly the sort of moral hypocrisy the tragic and ugly current #KEnt scandal highlights. Unfortunately, uploaders of #HindiCinema songs seem to think "English" means "Roman script", so I couldn't find actual English subs

#DesiOSTs I love
There is only one song that I could possibly end with.
My favourite song from my favourite film,, from anywhere and anywhen.
The only film I own a copy of the dialogues of – a beautiful physical book with the dialogue in two(3?) languages and four scripts.
A line from this song is in my profile, & the last verse sums up my view of the world perfectly, which is why its opening lines are on a t-shirt I had printed.

8.
For something COMPLETELY different, back to the 1957 #Hindi #Film #Pyaasa - the ANGRIEST song I've heard #MohammadRafi sing - doing full justice to the sublime Sahir Ludhianvi's polemic against hypocritical misogynist moralising in a song that was banned from radio play for decades in India.
2. From the same film, a VERY different song, one I fell in love with before I ever saw the film.
Ten #MohammadRafi songs incoming

1. My favourite song from my favourite film, EVER. The only song I have had lyrics from printed on t-shirts. Twice.
