Naseeba
Li'l every inch of us on the line
... on the string on everything could have been
Such unrest future
Just factors of our lives
Mud ja mud ja naseeba

Kahaan le aaye Naseeba
Kahaan le aaye Naseeba

If you want lighten up
Through the angry sky

Kahaan le aaye Naseeba
So story continues

Baadal lehraaye maat ka jo
Ban jaa Bijli baadal ko cheer tu
Rooh ko kar de yun roshan
Bas mushqil hai naamumkin tto nahi
Ban jaa Bijli
Naseeba

Kahaan le aaye Naseeba

Jhi jhi re jhi jhi re

Kahaan le aaye Naseeba
If you want lighten up
Through the angry sky

Minds without Fear

It was said "RP will always be my first and main internet station" and we say same.

The Shpongle track was moved, but Yes to Imogen was nice and trippy. And yes, sometimes the music here at RP is just too darn good and distracting for me to work to, so I too head over to SomaFM's Groove Salad downtempo station. But RP will always be my first and main internet station. 


I started with RP back near the beginning of streaming audio. It suited my taste in music perfectly at the time but then I started to get into electronica (~Y2K) so I too drifted over to SomaFM's Groove Salad where I got introduced to all manner of cool stuff.  But I would frequently revisit RP for my hit of Rock and then as RP picked up on more of the downtempo electronica stuff I found less impetus to go anywhere else. And the variety here is hard to beat, as is  the presence of the long experienced DJ, namely, Bill G.

Excellent!! I never heard this before. Thanx RP!
Imogen Heap, at least a 6 regardless of whether I like the song or not. Her voice deserves at least that!

From YES to Shpongle to Imogen Heap... making for a rather delightfully trippy studio soundtrack today. I used to fuel my artistic pursuits (I'm an assemblage sculptor and jeweller*) with a pretty steady diet of SOMAfm's Secret Agent station but since being introduced to RP 3 years ago by the jeweller I work for I rarely go anywhere else. Love the constantly changing mix and especially enjoy these occasional forays deeper into electronica and other musical exotica. Thank you Bill. * @memoryboxer on IG

Wasn't "loving" the Shpongle track but I do enjoy the little twisted musical journeys RP leads me down.  Think the mix into Imogen Heap & Vishal-Shekhar was excellent.  It's always good with Radio Paradise for me.
 
Oddly enough, I'm a huge imogen fan..... but liked the Sphongle song before it better than this one..... the discordance and tone of the indian mashup just isnt working for me on this tune.

Not much Imogen does that I don't LOVE!  Played this for my grandkids (16, 15, 13 & 9)

Agree, absolutely love her work, it’s so interesting, listenable, danceable, & always inspiring .

Couldn’t agree more. This is another excellent collaboration from this brilliant & underrated artist.

Just when you thought nothing could be worse than "Shpongle", this comes along to prove me wrong.

very nice!
Definitely made me sit up and listen.
This is interesting...
Love the mix of Indian influence....
An 8 from the non-Nottingham jury, also.
Nice spin off of the song by that dude that used to be the lead singer of Genesis

Personally, I really like this. It grabbed my attention completely with the mix of sounds and vocal styles.

 

 
One of the reasons I listen to RP is because of the voices from throughout the world I hear here!

Yes, she's fantastic!
I think in this track she sounds like a big fan of Conjure One.  {#Daisy}

I'm beginning to think there is a consorted attack from right-wing bots to hijack radioparadise and turn it in to a country station.

Let's hope they don't succeed.

I find that listening to music that's somewhat outside of my comfort zone can open my mind to new and powerful ideas.  Doing so helps me to shove my preconceptions and prejudices aside, to be less judgmental and a better listener -- not just to music, but to my family, friends, coworkers... and perhaps most importantly, to the voice inside me that keeps bugging me to work harder to become a better person.  Imagine what you could do if you opened more doors than you slammed shut.

 
Yep, I'll second that {#Clap}. I listen to RP to be exposed to new and different music, to be stimulated, to have my horizons widened, and of course to keep me sane during staggeringly tedious wage-slavery. Kudos to Imogen Heap for pushing her boundaries. As with all experiments, some fail, some work, and IMO this one works well. 8 from the Nottingham jury.

That sounds like a mind WITH fear... and closed to new ideas.  Nothing personal, that's just how that comment comes across to me. (Perhaps I just don't grok the Groucho reference...)

Anyway, just for fun, here's the poem from which the inspiration for this song arose:

Where The Mind Is Without Fear

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high
Where knowledge is free
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments
By narrow domestic walls
Where words come out from the depth of truth
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit
Where the mind is led forward by thee
Into ever-widening thought and action
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.

by Rabindranath Tagore

Peace.

I like this song, but I like your comment, too. Groucho rules.
Doesn't know what it's tying to be. Imogen is fantastic in a bonkers kind of way but this is boring and cliched.

Mimes without fear?
...wow - this is quite the concoction!..
no thank you

Not liking it...sounds like two radio stations coming in on the same channel

This makes me want to stand up at my desk and dance. {#Bananasplit} Luckily I have a riser desk and can...here I go!!!
