Crazy high at work. A jingle/ theme song mastered from Abbey road shook me and woke me up! It was almost as if my life had a new goal. I have to record at Abbey road at least once. Before I die. Must do that. I couldn’t sit down. Restless. HAVE to do this if I have to do anything in life, it’s this. I need to walk that zebra crossing dressed in a suit, barefoot, McCartney’s way, just with strappy stilettos dangling in my fingers. Ogled at Abbey Road crossing all day in an extra window through the live webcam streaming. sigh. I had a severe SEVERE craving to just burst out into a rapturous song
Almost in a trance I reach NAPA and figure out the Komal conversion through the different thaaths to be Ma Ni Ga Dha Re in this order, one by one, ranging from Bilaaval thaath right up to Bhairavi. Sounds like Mani Gadhaa Re. Mani is a gadhaa so this one isn’t too tough to remember. Cool mnemonic.
They taught us the second paltaa and the sur went insane. To top it alloff the teacher left the class for a moment and hell broke loose. Everyone was applying their own personal opinionated sargam and it was almost anarchical. Full Sargam is mindblowing by the way. I was about to burst a vein there.
I think I’m getting to know my class fellows a bit better. There’s the boy with a missing ‘Pa’, tone deaf laughing machine and Al Pacino who always wears this one shirt. With Al Pacino on it. I think this is beginning to amuse me. Lets see. For now, back to daydreaming about Abbey Road. *double sigh*
