Coffee Houser Shey Addata Aaj Aar Nei - Manna Dey

Posted by Nerdyy

After Wanderers post on GM, I thought this to be the perfect song to post - this song talks about the loss of the adda at the coffee house. The Coffee House being referred to here is a Calcutta tradition near the University area, populated by students hanging out and having coffee. Adda refers to hanging out with a bunch of friends and yapping .. i.e. dem Omega dayz :P. The song wistfully looks back at all the fun that was shared by a group of friends and how everyone scattered away - some dead, some far away, others "lapata". For me, it refers to not only the omega days but also the masala days of old when I used to actually have fun on masala and not be bored to death by spammers and idiotic abusers :P, moreover from a more real life perspective it brings back many many memories of hanging out with friends in my various College and University careers :D
