Ewwww.....sorry to say you folks choice of songs of the day (non-Concani) makes me want to........*never mind*.
No wonder, any Goichi social gatherings would be unbearable......without booze no?...and then they want to dance to the same same song. Did I stamp on your toes.... For a people to whom music, food and crookery (India's most corrupt state, no arguments) comes naturally, one would have thought we would throw up a better song than *yawn* un-peppy "Proud to be a Goan"! *before some old retiree put one his dentures and fires back, do take a minute to_______* Aye, and Irmao Fred may throws his 'formula' open-ended philosophical questions: what have you done musically..... I thought I would rub you folks the wrong way with a little compilation....sounds that are pure (in some cases), soulful and make you want to......easy yo..you don't want your blood pressure pumpin'.
