**nice song indeed…‘rimjhim’ se mujeh ek aur zabardast gaanaa yaad aa gayaa…i would like to share it with you…very lyrical!!!

concentrate on the first 4 lines called ‘ibtidaaiyah’ [foreword]…good and then hear the rain and accompanying music…great song!**

As soon as I read rimjhin, I knew exactly what song you were referring to. It is both depressing and rejuvenating - former because of days gone by, latter because of days gone by.

Could not play the embedded video - here it is

Always felt Bharat Bhushan and Rajendra Kumar were so lucky - they got some fabulous songs!

**wow!!! you have the full grasp of Bollywood of the 70's. :)

sorry for the video...and...thank you for the link...you missed the first four lines which is quite poetic with no music. you could play on you tube...just click the link that's shown underneath the message about embedding.

yes! in those days, there are a few actors who became so famous for two reasons...firstly, nice songs and secondly, Rafi's golden voice...and, they are:

*Biswajeet and Shammi Kapoor. Shammi Kapoor, once while paying tribute to Rafi, after his death, admitted that his success is primarily because of Rafi Saab!*

**OMG…this movie was such a mediocre but was a big success due to it’s songs…amazing songs…almost all of them were super duper hits…here is one in Mukesh Ji’s golden voice…no amount of praise is enough for Mukesh Ji’s voice…he was great at manchale songs as much as sad songs for which he was known fore…the king of sad songs!..enjoy this song:

**3 songs in tribute to Mukesh Ji:
