Hotel Kerala-phonia

This is an excellent parody-cover of the legendary Eagles song. Too bad only Indians would be able to understand the humour in this.

Here a link to download this song (773kb)

On the road to Trivandrum
Coconut oil in my hair
Warm smell of avial
Rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw a bright pink tube-light

My tummy rumbled, I felt weak and thin
I had to stop for a bite
There he stood in the doorway
Flicked his mundu in style
And I was thinking to myself
I don’t like the look of his sinister smile
Then he lit up a petromax
Muttering “No power today”
More Mallus down the corridor
I thought I heard them say
Welcome to the Hotel Kerala-fonia

Such a lousy place,
Such a lousy place (background)
Such a sad disgrace,
Plenty of bugs at the Hotel Kerala-fonia
Any time of year
Any time of year (background)
It’s infested here
It’s infested here
His finger’s stuck up his nostril
He’s got a big, thick mustache
He makes an ugly, ugly noise
But that’s just his laugh

Buxom girls clad in pavada
Eating banana chips
Some roll their eyes, and
Some roll their hips
I said to the manager
My room’s full of mice
He said,
Don’t worry, saar,I sending you
meen karri, brandy and ice
And still those voices were crying from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them pray

Save us from the Hotel Kerala-fonia
Such a lousy place,
Such a lousy place (background)
Such a sad disgrace
Trying to live at the Hotel Kerala-fonia
It is no surprise
It is no surprise (background)
That it swarms with flies

The blind man was pouring
Stale sambar on rice
And he said
We are all just actors here
In Silk Smitha-disguise
And in the dining chamber
We gathered for the feast
We stab it with our steely knives
But we just can’t cut that beef
Last thing I remember
I was writhing on the floor
That cockroach in my appam-stew was the culprit,
I am sure
Relax, said the watchman
This enema will make you well
And his friends laughed as they held me down
God’s Own Country? Oh, Hell!

Concerts I would give my arm and a leg to be in(Ok.. maybe only an arm)

These are the concerts I would like to go back in time and see. Of course, I would also want to be in the first row..

  1. Eagles-Hell Freezes Over:- One of the best concerts. Each and every band member played perfectly. All the songs were great and the Intro to Hotel California is one of the greatest. Also great are the songs by Timothy Schmidt(Love will keep us alive, I can’t tell you why)
  2. Pink Floyd-Pulse:- Read my earlier post
  3. Pink Floyd-Wall
  4. Metallica-SnM
  5. Woodstock 69
  6. Woodstock 94
  7. Nirvana-MTV Unplugged
  8. Beegees-One night only

Why is it that when I am writing my blog, I forget everything?? If I remember more, I will edit the post to add more..
