V FOR VIDEO KILLED THE RADIO STAR – A TO Z CHALLENGE

V FOR VIDEO KILLED THE RADIO STAR

It was the time when the significant change in the media and electronics and technology made this thought possible and the song got composed with the belief that the stars will not have their due recognition. This song is from The Buggles, an English band and it got them huge commercial success.

Albeit now the radio and TV stars are getting more recognition through Radio FM channels, sitcoms, live shows, live events, TV challenges and talent hunt’s. More people are opting for TV and even commercially successful artist are turning to it to rebuild their fame. It is so prevalent; just see the popularity of series like GoT, Friends, Sherlock etc. although I have seen only the Sherlock seasons.

My Connect

My connect is attributed to the daily travelling which gets a breather with the old classics played by a FM on the same time I leave for work and vice versa.

My Pick

As I write about the song in particular, so there are no choices to be made, here it is:

U FOR UPTOWN GIRL

Uptown Girl by Billy Joel is my in fact it is every man’s perfect song. The words penned down for the song are the reason that it caught up with people quickly. It is lovely to hear this song again and again and for some reason I prefer it when I am driving all alone down the country side.

Another great song from Billy Joel is “We didn’t start the fire” it was always burning since the world was turning. It was also a major hit for Billy Joel and I also wrote a post here in which I had co-related it.

Thanks Billy Joel for these and many more delights.

My Connect

IT was the New Year show way back in the 80’s. A dance troupe performed on the song “We didn’t start the fire”, given that time it was electric to watch it. I still remember it very precisely and the song was on my tongue for many days. Thereafter I heard Uptown Girl in radio.

My Pick

Here is the song:

EARTH DAY, 22 APR, 2016 – EVERY DROP MATTERS

| Subhash

As it is the Earth day which I am sure everyone is aware of by now and Google also reminded us with the beautiful doodle, so I also wanted to share and do my bit for promoting the need to conserve natural resources.

Let us all pledge to consume what we need, rather than consume what is available to us, let’s be more sensible, more responsible and leave a better future behind us.

Saw this tap in the park and wanted to share it to highlight the need of water before it becomes scanty. Certain states in India are reeling severely under water crisis and places have not seen consumable water for 3-4 days gap. It is really scary, hard to imagine the plight of people dealing with this.

Every drop counts, lets save water and Earth

Let’s save every drop before it’s too late and the taps run dry.
