This forum has people from all age groups, right from teens to full grown uncles in their late 40s and may be even 50s. Many of us have been fortunate enough to see the transition of this country from what it was before liberalization to the advent of getting cable tv, then internet and exposing us to what was there outside.
This was the golden era (as we like to believe and feel it is true as well) of Indian music. Be it Bollywood or the parallel music industry of the Indi Pop scene which was growing in India.
Be it the "Chadti Jawani remix" which was considered Borderline p0rn (and didn't have guts to watch in front of dad or mom) or awesome remixes of DJ Suketu or the first time when we fell in love with someone on screen when we saw the "chui mui si preeti jhangiani". Songs like "The Ketchup Song" which you did not understand at all but loved it somehow or Raghav's angel eyes where the only thing you cared for when he sang the hindi part.
What is your fondest memory of the indipop scene in India from the 90s and early 2000s? May be tag you favorite one from youtube.
The best part for me was that each song was a story in itself. It was not the mindless jumping or half naked women in bad raps like today. It was genuinely good music, story and simple and relatable people in the tastefully done videos.
