@Rekha,

I know exactly the commercial you are talking about. I remember it quite vividly also.

@Kiddo,
Damn, you mean to say that I've been singing the wrong song all these years? Shame on me!

Heterika--breaking down in New Road. And then he corrects himself--New Road hoina...New York, New York! Dude, that was classic. Hah ha. I remember laughing my *ss off.

@Sajhababa,
That's right the Hajir Jawaf competitions. I always wondered what guys who participated had to go through? Did you guys have to memorize a whole book?
Did they actually tell you that only one person could say the answer? I remember all this whispering and the endless conspiratorial writing, scratching. And then the person in the middle would crane their necks out and blurt the answer. And then the shrill bell if the time was finished.
Oh and these elaborate packaged gifts if you won. Sajhababa, did you actually win? What was in those packages...tell us..tell us...

*Songs I remember are Tara Devi.
And this super talented kid from Chhabahel (Bhrikuti school, I believe) who wanted to become Narayan Gopal when he grew up. Man, that kid could sing his heart out. Very talented.
