OTD in Music History: Austro-Hungarian composer Franz Lehar (1870 - 1948), best known for penning a series of highly successful operettas during the first few decades of the 20th Century (including his most enduring hit "The Merry Widow"), wishes you a Merry Christmas from way back in 1937.

OKAY, so I recently discovered that there is an operetta by Lehár (whom most of you might recognize as the guy who composed The Merry Widow) called Wo die Lerche singt ("Where the lark sings"), and from what I've seen (I haven't actually seen it, bc the only production I could find online has no subs, I can't find a libretto translated into either of the languages I know better, and my German isn't good enough as of yet; please do link me some sources if you can find them), it looks like a cousin of La rondine ("The swallow"). I first read about this operetta and its parallels to its Italian counterpart in this New York Times article (sorry for those stuck behind the paywall, Tumblr wouldn't let me properly link the VERY long paywall-free URL, so PM me if you want the full article), and I have decided to analyze the similarities between the two:
Both works are based on a libretto written by Alfred Maria Willner and Heinz Reichert. The aforementioned New York Times article seems to go as far as to call Wo die Lerche singt a "remixed La rondine"; altho it was technically based on some play Dorf und Stadt ("village and city") by one Charlotte Birch-Pfeiffer (but no one knows about it, so let's just skip it for now), one might say it's a sort of revised version of writers' libretto Die Schwalbe (ALSO "the swallow") that La rondine was explicitly based on.
The plots mirror each other in a sort of opposite way: La rondine concerns a Parisian courtesan who falls in love with an innocent country boy but is then driven by her dubious past to leave him and return to the city to her rich benefactor, whereas Wo die Lerche singt is apparently about a Hungarian peasant girl who travels to the city and falls in love with a painter who breaks her heart(?), which prompts her to return to the countryside to her peasant fiancé.
Birdies.
In conclusion, La rondine and Wo die Lerche singt are cousins. Fight me.

I've now fallen to the loop of playing the entire album of Jawan and yes every song in it🥲.
Yes I did think they were not that good but my brain has malfunctioned and everything about this stupid movie seems brilliant to me. The magic will wear off only when I get to rewatch it when it comes on ott.
Maybe I should watch all the movies it has taken inspiration from. There seems to be plenty of that🤭.
Till then please share your thoughts about Vikram Rathore and his badass family.

Kalki's story was so heart wrenching! And it resonated so hard with me since I'm also a daddy's girl! And was watching it with my dad, I was like "Papa...." and sobbing next to him, dad was quietly misty eyed. That tragedy of doing everything you can for kids, which my dad did and does too, and obviously, we only saw a little bit of Kalki and her dad, but he didn't have any of that "if I had a son he could carry on this line" blah, blah, blah, he was doing everything he could for his daughter to succeed and so evidently loved her with his whole heart. And I was like rep for girls who don't have daddy issues, and then when he died after wiping away her tears and telling her everything would be fine, just to focus on her studies. It was just so sad and heartbreaking, like they are just trying to live, why do humans have to be corrupt jerks everywhere? Is being just decent so damn hard? I fucking clapped when she started beating that bitch ass bank man (I was the only one 'cause we are in Canada), but a fully justified murder! Bash his head in baby girl!

The Land Of Smiles - You Are My Hearts Delight
Outing my odd taste again, but this is possibly my favorite love song ever. It moves me to tears every single time.
You are my heart's delight, And where you are, I long to be You make my darkness bright, When like a star you shine on me
Shine, then, my whole life through Your life divine bids me hope anew That dreams of mine may at last come true And I shall hear you whisper, “I love you”.
In dreams when night is falling I seem to hear you calling For you have cast a net around me And ‘neath a magic spell hath bound me Yours, yours alone A wondrous air is your beautiful hair Bright as a summer sky is the night in your eyes Soft as a sparkling star is the warmth of my love
You are my heart's delight, And where you are, I long to be You make my darkness bright, When like a star you shine on me
Shine, then, my whole life through Your life divine bids me hope anew That dreams of mine may at last come true And I shall hear you whisper, “I love you”
