How many of you like to listen to radio? I am an ardent fan of FMs. I listen to Chennai FMs using app whenever possible though it will not be consistent. The server will be down sometimes so there is no guarantee that you will be able to listen to it when you want to.
My favorite show is “Nee Naan Raja” from Radio Mirchi. It worked best to listen to it on days I used to work from home in previous job unless there are some meetings. It starts at 1130am my time and goes till 130pm.
And then I also listen to “Rettai vaal” again from Radio Mirchi when I go for my early morning walk.
Recent find is 8K app. It is a Tamil radio operated from US. Their motto is “Inga miles kammi smiles jasthi”. It is good.
Apart from this I have a collection of Tamil songs in my phone which I listen to while in transit every day. I try to update my collection with new songs periodically based on recos from great people like Maya.. Her musical series are my go to place to find good music.
I prefer to play music in the background while alone at home. Work gets done faster and you don’t feel the tiredness too.
At gym, one song accounts to 5 mins for me. I push myself to continue with the routine until current song completes. I even used to race with the song.
I give almost equal weight age to tune and lyrics to like a song. A song with touching lyrics always enters the heart fast.
To me listening to a song with all your heart and humming it along is equivalent to meditation as no other thought comes to your mind at that time.
Happy listening and happy singing to you all!!!
Between my littles and me 
Music is plays in the background constantly in our homes too !! It does take away the stress 🙂
can’t agree more.. total stress buster..
Love 8k Ani.. I listen to all the morning shows and my hubby listen to the evening ones. Saavn is also good but lot of songs are unavailable these days especially Raaja’s.. 😦

I’m not a music person at all 😦 I do listen to the radio but that’s only to BBC Radio to get my news fix on my way and back from work. Husband on the other hand needs music playing the whole day!
you are a proud book person 🙂
the only time i listen to music is when i am driving .. work is such cant have music on 🙂 .. and at home too tired after a hard days work …
I understand.. I have to count my blessings with my work nature..
I used to listen to FM during college days and the long commute times associated with it 😀 These days, S just downloads the songs and I hear them when I am cleaning or working out.. Music is such a magic potion!
listening to music while cleaning or cooking or for that matter while doing anything is bliss 🙂
I used to have my radio on all the time I am in my PG. Your post reminded me to download radio app in my phone. Just did 🙂 thanks Ani for the post 🙂
kewl.. the Saavn app is really good.. I have to thank Sri for suggesting it!
Oh.. Will try it.. Thank u 🙂
