Songs of Life

As a kid I used to listen to lot of kannada and english songs in the radio. During those days, TV had still not set its foot in Bangalore and RADIO was the only ruler in the drawing rooms of many people. Regarding English songs, my problem has always been remembering the names of the song(s) and the singer(s). I could only remember few lines or the tunes of the famous 80s and 90s english hit songs.If someone asked me for the song or the singer name, I used to simply blink!

There are some songs which stay close to your heart through out your life or at least for a significant time.Following are such songs which have been my favourite since my childhood / recent past.
