Indipop is Dead? Not on Youtube!

Indipop – this word brings back a lot of childhood memories. At a time, when Metallica seemed like a T-shirt brand and Guns N' Roses sounded like an action movie, Indipop was an introduction to good Indian music. Simple melodies served with funny and mediocre lyrics made for some good listening. From Hindi rap (Baba Sehgal) to Bhangra (Daler Mehndi, Sukhbir ),from soulful melodies(Colonial cousins , Silk Route) to sweet sugar-coated female voices( Anaida , Mehnaz), Indipop displayed a lot of variety which made it special.

Indipop era was over long time back. It made way for mainstream Bollywood music which we are so accustomed to. But is Indipop really dead? No! Not at least on Youtube. Here are some of the video links I came across during hours of mindless net surfing. If you ever come across such videos, please post the links in the comment section. Take Care!
