👏Congratulations Anita (rock&roll), that was a hatrick !!!! Very well done!!👏

And her request for the Retro to be played is a seasonal special....


This Retro theme is something that evokes strong emotions in all of us, it affects in many ways and brings out mixed reactions from us. Some get excited seeing it, some get adventurous, some get moody, some go deliriously happy, some get depressed, some get angry, some get romantic, some get creative, some get poetic ,some turn lazy while some turn just crazy.

Bollywood has gifted us some very memorable and nostalgic songs befitting each and every mood mentioned above to pamper us with.

The theme for this week's Retro Caf is …..Winter Season Special !!!!!

Winter – as soon as we feel the touch of the cold blast across the face that leaves a shiver, we know that winter has arrived. Its then time to pull out your most comfy comforters, put on your warmest boots, deck yourself with gloves and woolens and enjoy the short days and longer nights.Those living in the high altitude, it's the time to enjoy the snow, build up the snowmen, or the snow angels or shoot snowballs at your loved ones or simply go skiing or snowboarding and wait for the holiday season to land up on you.

It's the time to cuddle up in front of the fireplace with your warmest quilt with the hot chocolate in hand and enjoy the moment. It's the time to go out and hug the warmth of the mid day sun you as you sit and think. It's the time to just marvel at the beauty of the snow covering each and every object in its white pristine glory. It is also the time to face the foggiest of mornings, or shovel up the snow off your driveway or dig your car out of a mountain of snow. Its time for devour the fabulous winter foods and enjoy the holiday season. It's time to just jump into your cozy beds with the warmest of comforters. Its ,time to let the poet in you come out and express yourself.

The winter is here and let us welcome it by listening to some fabulous winter related songs of all times.
