Day 22: Lies

1) Jhooti-Nachhatar Gill. Look up UNC Bhangra Elite 8 2012's video, they do a bhangra dance to this song with the UNC drumline in the back.

2) Dhurogam-Aaru. A song about betrayal and deceit. Hariharan is a good voice for these sad/angry songs.

Day 21: Absurd Sadness

Some songs don't even try to hide how sad the person is.

Hindi:
1) Hai Dard from Ada. Slow song by Udit Narayan.

2) Koi Patthar Se Na Maare - Aaja Nachle. The movie reenacts a play of Laila Majnu; an older movie had a song of the same title and purpose.

3) Kehti Hai Yeh Hawa from Kuch Naa Kaho. I like this singer's voice, it's not super high pitch like most female singers in the industry.

Tamil:
1) Kaadhal Rojave from Roja. Probably the song that brought AR Rahman to nationwide popularity.
