It is a well deserved statement that “there is at least one Hindi film song for every season and every reason.” And the secret behind the statement is the fact that most Hindi film songs have lyrics, which people can easily relate to and identify with.

The popularity of Hindi film songs has only soared up worldwide, ever since the Hindi film industry came into being. In fact, I would like to state that the evergreen romance between individuals and Hindi song lyrics just gets better and better with time. You may find it a bit humorous, if I say that Hindi film songs are like legacies that gets passed on from one generation to another. I have at least five songs that I know my father enjoys listening to even today. Whenever we meet, we play those songs and enjoy them together. However, the songs really do not belong to the era of films that I grew up watching. These films released much before I was born but the appeal and popularity of these songs are just as good even today!

What appeals to me about these songs? The lyrics of course! Because the kind of music these songs have are of another generation. So it may not be easy to relate to the sound, technology or even the vibration of the music, but the lyrics of the songs weave a story well told. And you can easily hear and enjoy each time the songs play. Music is a strong reflection of any generation. Even if all the songs may not appeal to everyone from a particular generation but lyrics go on to become ever lasting. I think lyrics of a song remains the core emotion of a heart, musicians may disagree with it though. And Hindi film songs are soulful because of their lyrics. We do often feel while listening to or reading the lyrics, that it exactly talks about what our hearts have to say but said in a beautiful poetry. And its exciting to see how talented musicians convert even a common feeling into chart-busting songs! I have a song for every season, for every person in my life and for almost every emotion that I feel. Why? Simple, because the lyrics of the songs echo my feelings and emotions just the way I feel.

The world is becoming smaller with each passing day and with technology, it seems like a parallel world out there, yes, I mean, the virtual world where nothing is at a distance. Almost everything is a click away! In a world like this, if one wants to listen to a song it’s just a click away and the lyrics of the songs available online are like the icing of the cake! Gone are the days when one had to struggle to find the lyrics of the favorite songs.
