’’Music makes the people come together.’’

These are the lines of a famous song by ’Madonna’. Very fascinating! Isn’t it? They indeed are. Coming together by way of music is manifested since ages. Music is panacea of all the miseries of life. We could also refer to it as an ’Elixir of Life’.

Music breaks all the barriers - specially the barriers of language & region. Today, in India, we love listening to English music along with our own desi dose of songs. Indians - better, people of Indian origin - have made their impact in the world. ’Norah Jones’ is one such example.

’’Radio is a media which proliferates music.’’

Radio is one such media which is within the reach of the poorest. This explains the popularity of radio. With the entry of private players, radio experience has become even more interesting. Now there is variety. Now, just like TV channels, u can surf radio stations. This is a good news for the ones who love surfing TV channels & never get sticked to just one channel.

I am an avid listener of radio. When it comes to choose one particular FM station as the best one, it becomes quite cumbersome. Coz every station has its own flaws & its own goody-goody things. So, I’ll better say, ’’I Love Radio.’’ But why do I love radio? Because of the obvious reasons yaar. I am a music-lover & radio provides me good music. But this is not all. Radio is much more than just this. Radio has added a dash of humour to our everyday lives. Radio is a companion while driving alone.

Commercial Breaks

I do agree that nothing is more irritating than a commercial shooting out in a screechy & pompous way exhorting us to go there & buy that. But who said moon is spotless?
