Just came across Ebay India's front page and saw that Tips is promoting Race Audio CDs on Ebay. It says Bidding starts @ Rs 1 for Race Audio CDs autographed by Saif Ali Khan and Katrina Kaif. If you look at the seller, its "Tips Industries". What made me write this article was the price difference between the 10 listed items.

Tips Industries has listed 10 items tittled "Saif Ali Khan Autographed RACE audio CDs" and "Katrina Kaif Autographed RACE audio CDs" with price ranging from Rs. 150 to 676. Same audio CDs with this many different prices?? Why?? Why?

I was watching these video on YouTube while one video caught my attention. The title was "Gujarati Shakira". Out of curiousity I clicked on it and saw Shakira's famous video "My Hips Don't lie" but the wordings were Gujarati. It goes something like this

khambho ho ho ho....Bhale tu bhari layo re

Khambho means a can of liquor.

I was shocked and was laughing. Then I did some google search and found out that there is a group in Rajkot who created this "Gujarati Remix" version for Shakira's Hips Don't Lie. (The picture above shows the team who crated this song. Picture source: Desh Gujarat)

If you are a person who likes to promote new talent and want something new in Music, here is the site for you.

There is a website which allows independent musicians across the country to promote themselves. RadioVeRVe started back in 2006 by a group of friends. The site initially was only for Rock music but later started to play classical, Gospel and Konkani music.

The name VeRVe - Ve(We) R(are) Ve(We) means we are ourselves. The site only plays original music by Indian Artists. If you are an independent musician and want to submit your music (no matter what language it is), you can write to them with your bio and pictures and they will publish your music.
