The 80 most popular/ significant Hindi-Urdu songs of 1979

Two notes about the credits

i) Putting everyone in a difficult situation: Towards the end of CD 47 of GCM, Mr. Amin Sayani announced that the song Kuchh tum karo kuchh hum kareiñ from the film Hamaare Tumhare had been composed by ‘the great Shankar-Jaikishan’ and that the lyrics were by Vishweshwar Sharma. However, the jacket of CD/ Volume 47 credits the music and lyrics to Rahul Dev Burman and Yogesh respectively.

Such a major contradiction between what is said on the disc (and by the undisputed no.1 radio jockey in the history of Hindi-Urdu music at that) and what is printed on the jacket (by SaReGaMa, no less) threw Indpaedia’s volunteers in a tizzy. Mr. Harmandir Singh ‘Hamraaz,’ despite his faithfulness to original record labels, is, all said and done, a secondary source. Amin Sayani and the SaReGaMa employees who wrote the jacket notes were the Indian popular music establishment itself. Only the SaReGaMa website could overrule them.

SaReGaMa’s website agreed with the jacket notes. One arm of SaReGaMa reiterated what the other had written. Therefore, the dispute remained unresolved.

There was only one higher argument-settler left: the film’s credit titles. They ruled in favour of Rahul Dev Burman and Yogesh.

This unusual clash between the CD and its jacket, between the gigantic Amin Sayani and that repository of most of Indian popular music, SaReGaMa, compelled Indpaedia to draw up the Hierarchy listed on the page Hindi-Urdu songs: methodology.

ii) Who were the singers of the song Golmaal hai bhai from the film Golmaal? Binaca Geetmala ka Sureela Safar wrote: Rahul Dev Burman/ Sapan Chakraborty. However, a usually reliable website said: Kishore Kumar, Amit Kumar. Consulting SaReGaMa was useless. They listed two versions of the song, both credited to Sapan Chakraborty. Therefore, the arbitration of Hindi Film Geet Kosh was sought, and it agreed with Sureela Safar.

A note about the number of songs

Since 1957, when there were 34 songs in its annual list, BGM has always played at least 32 songs in its end-of-year broadcasts. There have been freak years like 1977, when there were 42 finalists, but the general trend was 32 guaranteed songs, plus a few bonus songs squeezed in. In 1979, true to this pattern, BGM officially played the Top 35 songs of the year. In addition there were nine jhalak songs (‘flashes’ is BGM’s official English translation of jhalak, which literally means ‘glimpse’). Typically, these ‘flashes’ were brief excerpts from songs that had figured in the previous year’s annual hit parade as well. The 1979 list included a flash from the song Jaan ki qasam from the film Azaad (see Hindi Geet Mala 1979, as well as Binaca Geetmala ka Sureela Safar, page 153). However, neither Indpaedia’s own records, nor any of the three annual lists consulted (GCM, Hindi Geet Mala, Sureela Safar) indicate that this song had played in the previous year’s main list, or even ‘Chhaon.’

24 songs in the ‘next rung’

The Geetmala ki Chhaon Mein CDs list 15  songs that were ‘in the shade’ (chhaoñ songs) this year. Prof Bhargava has compiled a list of  10  runners-up. The two lists have one song in common. Thus, between the two, there are 24 unique songs in the ‘next rung.’

 

GC: Geetmala ki Chhaon Mein is a set of 50 CDs issued by Saregama in instalments that continued into 2014. The set concentrated on songs that had ‘remained in the shadow’ (chhaoñ) of the main annual list of Binaca and its successor Geet Malas. These, thus, were the ‘next rung’ of songs, which were popular but did not make it to the main annual list.

Raags in songs

Few film songs that have a root in Indian classical music remain faithful to a raag throughout their length. Indpaedia volunteers have sometimes mentioned raags even when there is merely a hint of that raag in a song. (‘Raag’ is frequently spelt ‘raga,’ while ‘taal’ is also spelt ‘tal.’)

Wherever a taal has been mentioned, it is the one verified by ChandraKantha.com, and sometimes the raags, too.
