 100 songs coming together in the space of 6 CDs? And that too in the price of 2 CDs? Now this one indeed needs to be checked out. With an initial glimpse at the album cover giving an indication of some superhit dance numbers from last two decades being complied to make for an energetic outing, it is hard to resist giving each of the 6 CDs a well deserved listening. Also notable is the quote that accompanies each of them. So there we listen to the next 3 CDs!
CD4 - LET YOUR LIFE LIGHTLY DANCE ON THE EDGES OF TIME LIKE DEW ON THE TIP OF A LEAF
It's nostalgia time as one gets on to listening to the fourth installment of this compilation! Reasons are aplenty? That's because when was the last time that a compilation arrived on the stands with songs like 'Hawa Hawai' [Mr. India], 'I Am A Street Dancer' [Ilzaam] and 'Na Jane Kahan Se Aayi Hai' [Chaalbaaz].
Well, if you though that this is it then picture this! Songs like 'Sun Rubiya' [Mard] and 'Gori Ka Saajan' [Aakhri Raasta] may have been forgotten by many but for those who believe in vintage power, they only manage to bring on a smile. Ditto in case of twin treat from 'Tridev' - 'Tirchi Topiwale' and Raat Bhar Jaam Se' - that can make you go cheers yet again.
And yes, not to forget superhits like 'Kya Ada Kya Jalwe Tere Paro] and 'Na Na Na Na Na Re' [Mrityudaata] that still come with enough potential to make you hit the dance floor.
CD5 - DANCING WITH THE FEET IS ONE THING, BUT DANCING WITH THE HEART IS ANOTHER
Highlight of this CD has to be songs from various films that starred Madhuri Dixit in the lead. And there are many of them. Wanna listen to them? Then go play superhit 'Tamma Tamma' [Thanedar], 'Gazar Ne Kiya Hai Ishara' [Tridev], 'Khambe Jaisi Khadi Hai' [Dil] and 'Dhak Dhak' [Beta]. This is not all as Madhuri's biggest hit till date, yes you guessed it right, 'Ek Do Teen' [Tezab] features here as well. Well, the day is indeed made, but not before you have heard the sensuous 'Kaate Nahi Katte' [Mr. India] and the rip roaring 'Chahe Meri Jaan' [Dayavan].
For those wanting to check out a baby face Aamir Khan, there is 'Papa Kehte Hain' [Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak] while for those who still swear by initial days of Govinda, there is always a 'Main Aaya Tere Liye' [Ilzaam] and 'Main Pyaar Ka Pujari' [Hatya]. Odd, but true!
CD6 - LIFE MAY NOT BE THE PARTY WE HAD HOPED FOR BUT WHILE WE'RE HERE WE SHOULD DANCE
After a trip way down to the 80s, the compilation returns back to contemporary times with super-duper hits like 'Dus Bahane' [Dus], 'Jhalak Dikhlaja' [Aksar], 'Dil Chahta Hai' [Dil Chahta Hai], 'Aap Ki Kashish' and 'Aashiq Banaya Aapne' [Aashiq Banaya Aapne] gracing the album. Recent Reshammiya hits like 'Ae Meri Zohrajabeen' and 'Mujhko Yaad Sataye' [Phir Hera Pheri] are good hear once again while inclusion of songs like 'Sholon Si' [Shabd] and 'Raama Re' [Kaante] throw in a pleasant surprise.
In the middle of all this fun, a sensual outing like 'Door Se Paas' [Musafir] and 'Theme Of Aksar' [Aksar] is complimented by innocent romance in the form of 'Dil Dooba' [Khakee], 'Gustakh Dil' [Dil Maange More] and 'Gori Gori Gori' [Main Hoon Naa] that more than manage a balancing act for the compilation.
