Gaana Bajaana
Saathiya (OST - Darling)
You want a song which you can listen to, on constant repeat, for a long countryside drive. A song that will make you recall every intense, romantic moment of your life. Pritam has really cracked a great feel with this loungey number, and Adnan Sami's vocals are phenomenal (especially the way he comes back into the song at the end of the first verse, with his inimitable vocal twinge). However, a bone to pick in terms of composition - the "Beqaraari se mar hi naa jaoon" line in the chorus is a straight port from Punjabi MC's Mirza.
Also, check out Hasaaye Bhi Rulaaye Bhi from the same soundtrack. Nice!
Main Agar Kahoon (OST - Om Shanti Om)
Sonu Nigam spins a magical web of sensuality with his voice, once again. Its been ages since good melody and a simple waltz came together (the last two in recent times which were noteworthy were Ek Din Aap Yun from PBDHH and the legendary, Kuchh Naa Kaho from 1942). This song is brilliant and addictive.
Special Mention: "Daras Bina Nahin Chain" from Saawariya. That one unpredictable-format theme track in every SLB soundtrack (Theme of Devdas, Love theme from Hum Dil....). This one is really haunting.

Main Agar Kahoon makes me want to fly with happiness and weep with sadness.
Vishal-Shekhar have such a brilliant way of creating love songs with deep sadness and desperation.
Like Tu Jahan Main Wahan (Salaam Namaste) and the 'Ta Ra Rum Pum' piano and guitar refrain that comes in the middle of Sainyaan Ve (TRRP).
And of course singers like Sonu and Kailash Kher bring the music to life so beautifully.
Brilliant stuff.
