This solo was worth memoR(af)ising

Kisi Na Kisi Se Kabhi Na Kabhi was a song for which I coined a mnemonic – OTW.

It stands for someOne (Kisi na kisi se), at some Time (Kabhi na kabhi) and someWhere (Kahin na kahin).

There’s no two ways about the fact that it was a song worth remembering.

And the three men who collaborated on it – S H Bihari (who penned it), O P Nayyar (who composed it) and Mohammed Rafi (who rendered it) – equally deserved the credit for that.

The track, from Kashmir Ki Kali, was four minutes and 57 seconds long.
