My Favorite Eurovision Song Contest 2012 Songs

First of all I would like to mention that this post is based on the post written by Ms Jelena. This is the link of that post. I thank her for the post & I have fallen in love with few of the songs that she has mentioned on her blog. Thanks to her once again. Below are my most favorite songs from Eurovision Song Contest 2012. Please drop your comments & let me know which one(s) is/are your favorite(s).

1. This Is The Night : - By Kurt Calleja.
This Maltese entry is undoubtedly my most favorite. Falls in the Pop genre but has hint of  Rock as well. Kurt sings it quite softly. Melody is quite catchy & orchestration is superb. Will grow on you. Give it a few tries & you will end up humming its tunes.


2. Waterline : - By Jedward.
Irish singers Jedward's Waterline is a typical Europop number that will make you wanna tap your feet straightaway. Tune is quite Catchy & singing is energetic. Fast-pacy music that you'll like for sure. Arrangement is quite interesting.


3. Euphoria : - By Loreen.

Swedish singer Loreen's Euphoria belongs to a different genre. Something that I can't define. Its a haunting, progressive song that capitalises on Loreen's high pitched vocals & very interesting Electronic organ sounds. This one again is a high-octane song. Great music arrangements.  Of course, it won Eurovision Song Contest 2012.





4. We Are The Heroes : - By Litesound.

Litesound represented Belarus with this Pop-Rock number. Its tune is quite catchy & will grow on you. Hint of grunge can also be felt. Give this a  try & you won't be disappointed. Great orchestration & very good singing.




5. Echo (You & I) : - By Anggun.

French singer Anggun represented France with yet another Pop song Echo (You & I). Again, its amazingly catchy & she sings well in high pitch. Arrangements are really interesting & tune doesn't bore for a second. Lots of energy in this.

Songs To Tell Your Love She Is Beautiful - My Favorites

Your girl is beautiful. You like her everything. Her eyes, face, smile, the way she speaks, the way she walks & what not? Today, I present a list of a few songs (both Hindi & English) that just beautifully describe HER beauty. It of course, is in my opinion & may not necessarily excite you. Like I always say, give songs their time to grow on you. Don't write it off straight away.  I am not including James Blunt's You're Beautiful as I have not heard that song properly. Also, Chaudahvin Ka Chaand doesn't feature here since am not very much into old songs. So, below is the list of my favourite songs that I hear to praise her beauty, in no particular order. 1. Main Agar Kahoon (Om Shanti Om) - Sonu Nigam & Shreya Ghoshal. Main agar kahoon tumsa haseen, kaaynaat mein nahin hai kahin, taareef ye bhi to sach mein kuchh bhi nahin. No need to explain anything. She indeed is beautiful & this song seconds that. 2. Ek Ladki To Dekh

Hindi Songs With Key-change!

Probably the first post of its kind (once again)! This very post talks about key-change in Hindi songs. What is a key-change all about? Well, click the link in the line above & listen to the songs there. You will notice a sudden change in sound towards the end. That's key-change for you. While most of the western-style music relies on it (not necessarily), its a rare phenomena in Hindi songs just like this . If you're keen listener, you'll be able to feel the difference in sound aka the key! Below are such very few Hindi songs. 1. Chup Chup Ke - Movie:- Rush | Music: - Pritam 2. Hum Sey - Movie:- Humse Hai Jahan | Music:- Siddharth - Suhas Siddharth - Suhas are known for their Rock influenced music & vocalist Suraj Jaggan, too, is known for his Rock influenced vocals. Powerful voice, though melody doesn't impress much. Lyrics are cliched as well. But I like it for that KEY-CHANGE! 3. Tum Ho Mera Pyaar - Movie:- Haunted 3D | Music:- Chirantan B

Axwell Λ Ingrosso - Dreamer

Swedish duo  Axwell Λ Ingrosso ( who were 2/3rd of legendary Progressive House trio Swedish House Mafia ) made their comeback in 2014 with a new single called Something New . I am not counting the debut EP X4 here. Something New quickly became my top favourite & I still consider it the best track they have ever produced. I can even say Something New is one of my all-time favourites across all the genres. But this post is not about Something New . It is about something new ;) So, I am talking about their another single Dreamer from their debut album More Than You Know . I first heard the song when I was on my first Europe trip & it is one of the reasons why I love this song so much. It is hard for me not to associate music with time! There is an interesting story about it.  Axwell Λ Ingrosso released a teaser of Dreamer during Amsterdam Dance Event 2016 ( ADE ) at Heineken Music Hall. And since the song is dramatically catchy & it also reminded people of good
