"One of my old time favorite love songs
would be 'I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For' by U2.
There are many songs I like but this goes twenty years back
and reminds me of my college days and those innocent years.
Out of the Pakistani love tunes, I like Vital Signs' 'Tum
Duur Thay' and 'Aitebar'. I also like a lot of songs by Mehdi
Hasan."
The rhythmic gospel, 'I Still Haven't
Found What I'm Looking For' brought U2 to the cover of Time
magazine and was a huge chart topper. Vital Signs need no
introduction - and the classic songs that Faisal likes are
definitely among their most popular!
Mehdi Hasan's unique ghazals and powerful voice have given
him the title of 'the king of ghazals'. Renowned throughout
the subcontinent, this legendary singer's contribution to
Pakistani music cannot be forgotten or matched easily!

"I
like the old love song 'Wicked Games' by Chris Isaak because
it has a beautiful video. 'Wicked Games' is a very sexy song-
it's, well, inviting... I don't know how to describe it. I've
had a crush on Chris Isaak since I was young. I also like 'Kiss
From a Rose' by Seal. I've always been a huge Batman fan and
so I love the song. Then there is 'November Rain' by Guns and
Roses- one video I'll never forget. I'm bad at remembering lyrics
and these are the three songs I can actually sing along to!"
'Wicked
Games' was released as a single but didn't become a hit until
it was featured in the film Wild At Heart. 'Kiss From a Rose'
is off the soundtrack of Batman Forever and topped the US Billboard
Hot 100 in the first week. The video has Seal performing the
song besides the Bat-Signal, with video clips from the movie.
'November Rain', an eight-minute rock ballad, was the most requested
video on MTV and won an MTV Video Music Award for Best Cinematography.

"I've been listening to this one love
song since it was released. It's called 'Breathing' by Lifehouse.
I think it's the perfect love song for Valentine's Day."
'Breathing'
is yet another hit song by Lifehouse - a band that has produced
mellow love songs like 'You and Me' and 'Everything' to more
rock-infused music like 'Hanging By A Moment'and 'Sick Cycle
Carousel'. Lifehouse is one band known for their meaningful
lyrics and 'Breathing' definitely doesn't disappoint- and
is perfectly apt for this Valentine's Day weekend! |
