=========================================================
The "above" are collections of someone's or some people's favorite
songs. So what if it does not include a KK song? And can you really
blame anyone for not liking that atrocious number?
C
Both the sites cited are very good.
But if I were to pick 20 Gujarati songs now, they would be (in no
particular order):
1. have sakhii nahii.n boluu.n (Lata, M:Purushottam Upadhyay)
2. ek rajakaN suuraj thavaa ne shamaNe (Lata, M:Dilip Dholakia)
3. chhaanu.n re chhapanu.n kai.n thaay nahii.n (Asha, M:Avinash Vyas)
4. chhelaajii re maarii haaTu paaTaN thii paToLaa mo.nghaa laavajo
(Asha, M:Avinash Vyas)
5. raakh naa ramakaDaa (Geeta-A.R.Oza, M:Avinash Vyas)
6. tame thoDaa thoDaa thaav varaNaagii (Geeta, M:Avinash Vyas)
7. pa.nkhiiDaa ne aa pii.njaruu.n (Mukesh, M:Avinash Vyas)
8. taarii aa.nkh no afiinii (Dilip Dholakia, M:Ajit Merchant)
9. o ra.ng rasiyaa (Hemu Gadhvi + female voice, folk)
10. maniyaaro te (Praful Dave, folk)
11. khammaa maaraa na.ndajii naa laal (Hemu Gadhvi + chorus, folk)
12. jesal karii le vichaar (Suman, M:Avinash Vyas)
13. maare ToDale beTho re mor kaa.n bole (Diwaliben Bhil, folk)
14. meruu to Dage paN (Rajul Mehta, M:Avinash Vyas?)
15. vaishNav jan to tene re kahiye (Amirbai Karnataki, M:?)
16. he jaag ne jaadavaa (Manna Dey, M:?)

Ik gujarati geet ki talaash hai jo upar likhii site par bhi nahiiN mil
rahaa
Song is by Harshida Rawal
Words are as follows
"maari sheriye thi kaan-kuNvar nisryaa, re Lol!
mukhe thi morli vagaaRtaa re Lol!"
if any of you can get me the words and recording of this, I will
greatly appreciate it
I don't understand a word of Gujrati. In 1953 or around this date I
heard a song on Radio Pakistan by Geeta Roy, which sounded like
"Risayeka ... navelia". I wanted this record and a friend who had
contacts in Radio Pakistan Karachi obtained this 78 RPM Record for me.
It was left in my 78 RPM collection in Karachi. Can anybody remember
this song !
MA
Thanks for the clarification. Could not figure it out ( cannot read
Gujju except a few familiar words ).
> So what if it does not include a KK song?
So you mean it is not amongst the"most popular" songs in Gujarati
films ? If that is what you mean I rest my case and apologize.
> And can you really
> blame anyone for not liking that atrocious number?
See above and depending on your answer, I could continue with the
discussion :-)
Thanks for the recommendations. Just a doubt, are they the most
popular or the songs that you "like" ?
I can only say that at least 10 of these songs are highly popular. The
rest are just popular with me :)
C
Difficult to say. Could it be:
mujh thii kem risaayaa saajan (Kahyagro Kanth, 1950, M:Indukumar
Parekh, L:Durgesh Shukla)
I have not heard the song so I am not sure if "risaayaa" is in the
refrain. Also, I assume you are referring to a solo song.
C
I cannot say if it is "most popular". It was reasonably popular I
guess. Certainly a great hit among people of Ahmedabad since it talked
about their beloved city.
C
Thanks. I guessed so.
Would love to get your 10 popular song names from your list ( more for
the sake of the origin of this chain )
i am not a connesuir of gujarati songs. but i do love to listen to some when
opportunity presents. specially the rass songs give me goose bumps. eg,
khamma mara nand ji key laal, morli kharee vagaadi? i remember one song that
used to tickle me a lot. which talked about "rokda aje aney udhar kaley". it
was sung by the one and only manna dey. i would like to include this song if
i can get it. i notice that gujarati folks have used manna dey's talent a
whole more, kinda disproportionately than would be the case for hindi scene.
i congratulate them. the language is very sweet, and the people so loving.
C, I am a bit surprised that your list does not include any Mahendra
Kapoor song.

l.com I have your song from movie Maa Baap.

I have included this one in my list. This is an old song (might have
been penned by Narsinh Mehta) and has been sung by several artists. I
had recommended the Hemu Gadhvi version. He is one of my favorite folk
singers.

This song is "charara charara maruu.n chakaDoL chaale". IIRC, this is
available at hamaracd.com. It should also be downloadable (try a
google search with the mukhada).
C
I like one song of his quite a bit "dhuuNii re dhakaavii belii ame
taaraa naam nii". I picked the Suman song from the same film (Jesal
Toral) in favor of this one.
Can you remind me of some of his other good songs?
C
Roughly, the first 10 are popular numbers and the rest are...
C
Waa..h! You reminded me of what a wonderful bhajan, so beutifuly sung
by Mahendra Kapuur.
{although,i`ve heard the same (not complete) song by Purshottam bhai
in a live program, and it does not even come close to the MK original.
I`d love to have the recording of MK bhajan.I have the full lyric.
Thanks Guys. I am glad to have found such an enthusiastic and helpful
group. Keep it up!

=====================================================================================
C,
Here are couple of MK songs that I could think of right away.
Raja Bharathari - Pehla Pehla Jug Ma Rani Tu Hati Popati Ne Ame Re
Popat Raja Ram Na
Kunwarbai Nu Mameru – Aaj Ni Ghadi Te Raliyamani, Hey Maro Vahlo
Aayani Vadhamni
I prefer Suman's song from Khamma Mara Vira - Punam Ni Pyari Pyari
over Jesal Toral song...In my opinion it is more popular.
Same with Getta Dutt...I would include Taliyon Na Tale Gori Garbe
Ghoomi Gaye Re over Tame Thoda Thoda Thav.
Thanks for the pointers.
> Raja Bharathari - Pehla Pehla Jug Ma Rani Tu Hati Popati Ne Ame Re
> Popat Raja Ram Na
This is a traditional song and has been sung by others (e.g. Hemu
Gadhvi + Dina Gandharv). Assuming this film version is also a duet,
who is the co-singer?
> Kunwarbai Nu Mameru – Aaj Ni Ghadi Te Raliyamani, Hey Maro Vahlo
> Aayani Vadhamni
I remember hearing this. Nice one.
> I prefer Suman's song from Khamma Mara Vira - Punam Ni Pyari Pyari

The singer is Usha Mangeshkar. It is a very good song.
Another good Suman song is "naagar na.ndajii naa laal, raas rama.ntaa
maarii nathaNii khovaaNii".
C
You can listen to the song on musicindiaonline.com
C
This is a solo.
