But if original translator has put the gredit field
  Translator: Joe User
then it should not be removed.
Translator could put name and e-mail address to gredit.
If somebody corrects the lyrics, then she/he could send
the correction to original poster and original translator
reposts the lyrics when it is finished -- if there's a lot of
corrections then there should be some extra gredit to person
who corrected.

Other gredits fields could be Composer, Singer, Playback Actor,
Movie, Director, etc.

How about 'standardizing' the lyrics by making standard lyrics
format? That way we could archive the lyrics to a FTP site,
and easily verify has somebody else translated a song before.


By the way, I have put r.m.i.c and r.m.i.m archives
what I have done to nic.funet.fi [128.214.6.100]
to pub/culture/music/indian directory.
I will load all archives I have to nic.funet.fi, but
now there's only articles of a couple of months.

Somebody might want compile a lyrics file from them,
so that it is easy to look for certain lyrics.


By the way again, I have not got articles to r.m.i.c
after last August 13 -- if you have got, then
we have a problem.
Also, please use always 'world' or 'rec' distribution;
don't use local distributions.

In the song "My name is Anthony Gonzalves" in AAA, Amitabh speaks
out a lot of gibberish in English. It had some words like
"haemoglobin","atmospheric pressure in the country", etc. Does

With reference to the plethora of copied tunes in hindi film music
, especially in the last 10 years:
Film Maine pyar kiya:
aate jate haste gaate: copy of I just called by Stevie Wonder
pari ho tum ya....     had music of Final countdown by Europe in it
mera dil ...zubi zubietc. ( from dance dance)
was a copy of brother louie by Modern Talking
Oye Oye was a copy of rythm is gonna get you by Gloria Estefan
ye kya hota hai kaise hota hai koi bhi jane na......from I think 
a sunny deol movie is a copy of Walk like an egyptian by the Bangles

recently someone told me that the raj kapoor movie song : itna na tu
mujhse pyar badha.. used the music of Mozart.
Songs from Love Love Love had music of its a sin( by the Pet shop boys)
in it.
I have even heard a hindi song in the tune of I wanna hold your hand,
by the beatles.
So the list of copying is quite formidable.
However, they usually do a good job at copying!
Also , the non-copied songs are usually much better than copied songs.
given this, I don't understand why music directors in India resort
to copying western tunes.

( Of course I haven't touched on copying of tunes from regional songs)
One which comes to mind  is 
mera dil tota ban jae... which is a copy of an older marathi song

 I have the first two songs with me but not the third one.
The song 'laal laal gaal' is from the film Mr X (starring Johnny Walker ???)
and the singer is  Mohammed Rafi.If no one has the patience to type the song
I will do it.                                
     By the way is 'Shikari' the first Hindi film as music director for S.D.

Hi,
 
I was wondering if there are any copyright restrictions on film songs.
I have heard numerous songs that are blatant plagiaries of some of the
older ones. I will cite two examples ..
 
1. O priya priya (Movie ??) is a copy of the original telugu song
   "O priya priya" (Film: Gitanjali)
2. Dhak Dhak karne laga (Film: Beta) is a copy of original telugu song
   from the film "Bobbili Raja"
 
Both the originals cited above had music scored by Ilayaraaja and I know
that he was not the MD for the hindi films. There is another song I can
think of which was scored in Tamil by Ilayaraaja and later remade in
Hindi "Neele Neele ambar par" (Kalaakaar). But in this case the MD for the
hindi film is also Ilayaraaja.
 
I am sure there are hundreds of such songs that have been copied from
regional film tunes into hindi and Vice-Versa. I know a lot of Telugu
songs that have been copied from Hindi.
 
It is possible that the copyright is held by the recording company and
not the music directors .. in which case copyrights can be transferred
(for money of course !!). I wonder if any of you guys know facts about
this.

 First, I can recall at least one more movie, in which RK has
borrowed the voice of some other singer than KK.
That is Bawarchi. Singer Manna Dey. Songs: Bhor aayi gaya andhiyara
and one more when RK is driving a bullock cart (it's in Jaya's
imagination). Also there is a possibility that RK has once used
voice of Mukesh. Who is the singer of the song Ram kare babooa
ko hamari umar lag jaye from the movie Anuraag (Mausumi Chatterjee
Vinod Mehra etc.)? And in Kati Patang isn't there a song by
Mukesh? Is it Jis gali mein tera ghar na ho baalma? Who sings
that in the movie?
   Also in Aaan Milo Sajana, is Mohd. Rafi singing the title
song for RK?

  Now about the other RK (Raj Kapoor). Yes he has used voices
of other singers. As someone replied in Chori Chori, Manna Dey
has come to his rescue. Imagine those songs in Mukesh's voice.
(Nothing personally against Mukesh. I like many of his songs.)
Also Laga chunari mein daag (Help me here, I can't think of
the film, but I think there is RK and Nutan, no not Anadi.
In this film RK is a great shayar, I think the song 'Tum
agar muzko na chaho to koi baat nahi' by Mukesh is in the
same movie, I think it's coming to me now, is it Dil hi to hai?)
     I think in all these examples, it's probably obvious that
Manna Dey was supposed to be better in very classical based
songs with lots of 'sargam' etc. only to be mathced by Mohd Rafi.
At the same time Manna Dey could sing happy songs by pouring
real happy feeling in them (Ek chatur naar is an excellent example).
    One more example of RK using Manna's voice, Aye bhai jara
dekhke chalo, from Mera naam jokar.

   I do keep on humming the first song but am not very sure
about the wordings, since my marathi is not of a very high

There's a Punjabi song "Kali teri gut te paranda tera lal ni..."
that becomes "Kali teri choti hai paranda tera lal ni..." which
is neither Punjabi nor Hindi- but a curious mixture of the two. I
liked this modified version though, and it was from a film starring
Chunkey Pandey/Neelam (name of the film ????).

How about "Brother Lui-Lui" (Modern Talking) that becomes "Zooby-
Zooby" in Dance-Dance! Bappi Lehri's "creative" talent at the
very best !! ;-) ;-) ;-)

Also, two hit songs from "Maine Pyar Kiya":
--> Mere rang me rangane valee ...(Final Countdown....)
--> Ata Jate Hanste Gaate....(I just called to say I love you..)

And do you remember of a song "Hawa Hawa Aye Hava Khushboo Luta De.."
by Hasan Jahangir that lead to at least 3-4 different songs in films?
One was "Jawan Jawan...". I think there were at least one or two more.
Does anyone recollect those ?

Copyrights can be tranferred by the recording company, I think. But I am
sure that Bappi Lehri does not come to the US for them... The songs copied
from English songs are probably (surely?) copied without permission.
Even within India, not everyone bothers about copyrights. I think
there was a law-suit bertween two versions of "Hawa Hawa..."
