Ignorance is bliss, a lot of times

Ignorance is bliss. This is not the first time I have come to realize this . I have a confession to make. Ever since I was a kid, I always wanted to be an awesome singer. It is in the recent past, that I have realized I am god awful. From that point, I have either restricted my singing to within the four walls of my bathroom or to large singing gatherings. I seek solitude at the extremes of the spectrum. The other evening, I was at a birthday of my friend (amani) and there were talks about this “new kid on the block” with a good voice. Listening to tushar, brought back some long lost memories. I guess it all stemmed from this one session in my school. Every morning at school, we used to assemble to figure out things in life. Once in a while, some kid would hop onto the dias and perform something. This guy (Prem) sings “Ae mere watan ke logo”. That’s all! The song evoked such strong emotions, I felt like Nehru when he first heard this song!
