I wonder how they intend to use the song for politics? Would they get a parody lyrics written to it? something like
Vote De, Vote De, Vote De Aaja, Aaja, Sonia Mayya ko vote de, Aaja, Panje Waale Rahul Bhayya ko vote de Vote De, Vote De, Vote De Petrol diesel ki hamne keemat ghataai hai pahle badhaai par ab dugani ghataai hai LPG ki tanki pachhees rupaye sasti hui hai ham jeete to do-do rupaye aur kam karenge Vote De, Vote De, Vote De My conclusion is: if you listen to the above lyrics - IGNORING YOUR OWN POLITICAL AFFILIATIONS, you would like this parody also - because such lyrics would add a comedy angle to the song. :-) :-) :-) Don't wonder if they start saying "Congress ke Uttam Shashan ke Karan Bharat ko Ye Oscar Mile" (India got these Oscars owing to the great governance of Congress party" -- Rawat On 3/6/2009 12:12 AM India Time, _Shah Navas_ wrote: > This is very wrong precedent. .
