Mai keha sadi asha jhinah sadian sukh sabelian
Nu din raat nu aoondian hain, kimarh karke

There's dancing
Behind movie scenes, behind the movie scenes
Sadi Rani
She's the one that keeps the dream alive
From the morning, past the evening
To the end of the light

Brimful of asha on the 45
Well, it's a brimful of asha on the 45
Brimful of asha on the 45
Well, it's a brimful of asha on the 45

And dancing
Behind movie scenes, behind those movie screens
Asha Bhosle
She's the one that keeps the dream alive
From the morning, past the evening
To the end of the light

Brimful of asha on the 45
Well it's a brimful of asha on the 45
Brimful of asha on the 45
Well it's a brimful of asha on the 45

And singing
Illuminate the main streets
And the cinema aisles
We don't care bout no government warning
About their promotion of the simple life
And the dams they're building

Brimful of asha on the 45
Well it's a brimful of asha on the 45
Brimful of asha on the 45
Well it's a brimful of asha on the 45

Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow
Everybody needs a bosom
Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow
Everybody needs a bosom
Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow
Everybody needs a bosom, mine's on the 45

Mohamed Rufhi 45
Lata Mangeshkar 45
Solid state radio 45
Ferguson mono 45

Bon public 45
Jacques Dutronc and the Bolan Boogies
The Heavy Hitters and the chi chi music

All India radio 45
Two in ones 45
Argo records 45
Trojan records 45

Brimful of asha on the 45
Well it's a brimful of asha on the 45
Brimful of asha on the 45
Well it's a brimful of asha on the 45

Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow
Everybody needs a bosom
Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow
Everybody needs a bosom
Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow
Everybody needs a bosom, mine's on the 45

Seventy-seven thousand piece orchestra set
Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow
Mine's on the RPM

Brimful of asha on the 45
Well it's a brimful of asha on the 45
Brimful of asha on the 45
Well it's a brimful of asha on the 45

Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow
Everybody needs a bosom
Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow
Everybody needs a bosom
Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow
Everybody needs a bosom, mine's on the 45

    Thanks for posting that, cabanastyles! And just to follow up on "I confess the other references are strange to me.", I can shed light on one at least:

    Trojan Records was (is?) a famous reggae label based out of the UK--I assume they had a big influence in India as well....

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
