Here's another English translation of the Hindi lyrics in a track from A Fistful of Soundtracks' Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday "Chai Noon" block that's become a favorite "Chai Noon" track of mine (even though this particular tune rips off the synth line from Usher's "Yeah"). It's the partially-in-English "Paisa Paisa" ("Money Money"), a musical number composed by the British Sikh trio of RDB (Rhythm Dhol Bass) for this past winter's De Dana Dan (pronounced "day duh-nah don"). The hottie during the number is Katrina Kaif. Her movie is a Bollywood clone of the unfunny 2000 Norm MacDonald/Dave Chappelle farce Screwed that's twice the length of the MacDonald/Chappelle version--it's 162 minutes long! WTF? Only in Bollywood.
Someone ought to do a "Paisa Paisa"/"Yeah" mash-up. It'd be as sweet as that brilliant mash-up of "Yeah" and Harold Faltermeyer's Beverly Hills Cop theme.
"Chai Noon" airs Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at noon-1pm and early Wednesdays, early Thursdays and early Fridays at 4-5am on AFOS. To log on to AFOS, hit the "Play" button on the widget on the right side of this blog.
