 I do not think that is the reason as Shri420 which was a RK production came
out in 1955 whereas Chori Chori which was a South Indian production of
AVM was released in 1956.

Hi, netgurus! Someone had recently asked for the English lyrics in the song
"My name is Anthony Gonzalves..." from the movie Amar Akbar Anthony, so
here goes....

Chorus  : Babble Babble Babble

Amitabh : Wait Wait Wait
	  You see the whole country of the system is juxtapositioned by the
	  hemoglobin in the atmosphere because you are sophisticated with
	  intolerance, intoxicated by the exuberance of your own property!!
 
Chorus  : Whaaaattt!!!

Kishore : My name is Anthony Gonzalves....
	  etc etc

          ----Lyrics omitted-----

Amitabh : You see, such extenuating circumstances coerce me to pertrude (?) you
	  from such extravagance!

Chorus  : Whaaattt!!{

Kishore : ----Lyrics omitted-----


Additions/corrections invited.

Your observation is really keen. To my mind there is no other movie of
Rajesh Khanna without songs by KK, just as there are no Raj Kapoor movies
with songs by Mukesh. However, it will be interesting to see if someone
can recall movies that feature one of these actors without the songs of
KK/Mukesh.

Recently there was some discussion on the net about the copying of tunes
from south.  I have noticed that Anand Milind copies the tune of
southern supremo illayaraja pretty often.  My limited knowledge of tamil songs
allow me to quote only few of them.

1) 	O Priya Priya ( Dil )

		copied from O Priya ( Githanjali )

2)	Jhume Galiyon Mein Ghume ( Baaghi )

		copied from Raja ( Agni Nakshatram )

3) 	Chandni Raat Hai

		dont remember the songs lyrics

	About illayaraja he is one of the most talented music directors in India.
Most of the tamil and telugu movies have music from illayaraja.  Though he has 
given music for some of the hindi movies but none of them were a musical hits
as most of his movies are in south india.  A few of the movies with illayaraja 
as music director.

1)	Sadma
2)	Dada
3)	Shiva
4)	Anjali
5)	Appu Raja

There might be more movies but I dont remember any more .  I will appreciate 
if some one can post some more info about the tunes copied from Illayaraja.

The idea is right (3 consecutive notes; a semi-tonal increment every
time on chun chun choo). The details are:

Sorry, that should be Kalyanji-Anandji. The Sapan-Jagmohan song I had

I am curious to know if there are any new releases in which the music has been

but for the last one year haven't seen any movie with his music.

Organization: University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Canada
Date: Wed, 19 Aug 1992 05:16:33 GMT



While the music directors are generally well known, their assistants 
rarely come to the limelight. I thought it would be interesting to
see the similarities/differences in the styles of assistant-turned
music directors and the directors for whom they worked. Following is
a list of assistants to prominent music-directors. Please add the names
of assistants that you can recall:



     Music Director                    Assistant(A)/ Arranger(Ar)


1.   S.D. Burman                       R.D. Burman(A, Aradhana)(plays mouth
                                        organ in "Mere Sapno ki rani..."

                                       Jaidev(A)


2.   O.P. Nayyar                       G.S. Kohli(A)

3.   R.D. Burman                       Basu-Manohari(A, "Sabse bada Rupaiyya")

                                       Sapan -Chakravorti (A)
                                             
4.   Ram Ganguly                       Shankar (of Shankar-Jaikishen)
     (song by Mukesh
    "Zinda hue .../Aag)

5.   Shankar-Jaikishen                 Dattaram(A, directed music for 
                                       Parvarish(old): "Masti bhara hai sama..'
                                       (notice the emphasis on Accordion and
                                       the typical country beat using Tabla)
                                 
                                        Sebastian(Ar)

6.   Ravi                              Gyan(A)


7.   Salil Choudhary                    ? ? ?


8.   Hemant Kumar                      Kalyanji (A, of Kalyanji-Anandji) (plays
                                       the legendry "been" of Nagin)


9.   Kalyanji-Anandji                  Laxmikant-Pyarelal (A)
                                       Babla(A, real brother of Kalyanji-Anandji)
                                       Anil Mohile(Ar)
                                       Viju Shah(Ar, now A) (he has also composed
                                       music for Vishwatma)

10.  Babla (composed music for
     "Meetha Zehar")                   ? ? ?


11.  Madan -Mohan                       ? ? ?  


12. Jaidev                             ? ? ?

13. Shiv-Hari                          ? ? ?

14. Rajesh Roshan                      Gautam(???- please confirm)

15. Roshan (Tajmahal fame)             ? ? ?

16. Naushad                            ? ? ?


                        .
                        .

                        .


(please omit the - in Madan Mohan and Sapan Chakravorti, they are one person
not two as the "-" may suggest).


From this list, I can't help noticing the similarity in the styles of

(Dattaram,G.S. Kohli, Basu-Manohari,Babla) and (SJ,OP Nayyar, RD Burman and KA)
respectively.

Howdy, folks! The KK "zindagi" chain seems to be going pretty strong. Let
me come up with my pennyworth of knowledge regarding such songs. Most of them
must have already appeared in the previous postings, but since I don't
remember which were mentioned, I'm going ahead and keying in all those I
can recollect :

1.  Zindagi pyar ka geet hai, isse har dil ko gaana padega.
2.  Zindagi ek safar hai suhana
3.  Zindagi ka safar, hai ye kaisa safar
4.  Zindagi ke safar mein guzarjate hain jo makaam

Subject: Kishore songs on "Meaning of Life"...
Organization: Development Tools Operation, Intel Corp., Hillsboro, OR

Of the various kinds of songs that Kishore has sung, my favorite are the
ones about "life". He has dealt with various points of views about life-
life as a mystery, life as a joyful experience, life as a cruel joke,
life as a journey,... Here are some such songs. Can anyone add more to this
list?

1] Zindagi kaisi hai paheli hai.... (anand)
   Kabhi Ye hasaye, Kabhi ye rulaye

2] Zindagi ka safar  hai ye kaisa safar .......(Safar)
   Koi samjha nahi koi jana nahi

3] Zindagi ek safar hai suhana....
   Yahan kal kya ho kisne jana

4] Ye jeevan hai, is jeevan ka (yehi hai)-3 rang roop....
   Thore gam hain, thori khushiyan (yehi hai)-3 chaon dhoop

5] Ik rasta hai zindagi jo tham gaye to kuch nahi...(Kala Pathar)
   Ye kadam kisi mukam pe jo jam gaye to kuch nahi

6] Jeena kya aji pyar bina, jeevan ke yahi chaar dina...
   Rupey paisey bina chal jaye magar, zindagi na chaley yaar bina

   (Is [6] sung by Kishore? Which film?)

7] Mera jeevan kora kagaz kora hi reh gaya... (kora kagaz)
   Jo likha tha ansuon ke sang beh gaya...

All of these songs carry different messages - some of hope, some of 
pain, some of indifference... Which one of these do you think (if any)
gives a good definition of life ? Do you remember any other songs 
that define life?

Does anyone know the music directors of the above songs?
