Allright folks...here's my hairbrained attempt at "mere mehboob tujhe". Excuse the low voice...it's a very unprofessional recording...

If anyone did care to listen, any comments/brickbats are welcome...

I was looking out for something to point out by way of "constructive criticism". Frankly, I could find nothing to find fault with. Rather, I am truly impressed and wish you would be singing instead of the besura nuts who plague the dinners I have the misfortune to attend!

Wow..Kind words from the B'shah himself. At the risk of over doing this, let me attach one more. This is a KK number I dare say.

Thanks folks

DEAR HITS,
hey i really liked your recordings dude!, you have a very nice voice, and are very pakaa of sur and taal.....although you need to practice the higher pitches....why don't you send in a ghazal, i am sure it will really suit your voice

DEAR SHAHNAVAZ,
i enjoyed your recordings too, 'mujhe ishk hai ' more though. you have inspired me to send in my attempt too(i have this karaoke also),

looking forward to your views of this recording

As good as it gets . your try was better .

I knew there were some errors in mine ( i said it was a practice )
I also have recorded the following -- here the pREVIEW.

Mujhe ishq hai -- ( i have already uploaded ) and i know I struggled in antras

Akela hoon main is duniyaa mein - ( whenever i go to studio i never forget to practice this - since that was first song i did in studio ) Studio = its not that profesional -kaam chal jaata hai yaar-

Apni aankon mein basaakar koi ikraar ( here i sound like ataulla khan trying rafi )

Khoya Khoya Song ( chand ) - haha ( I find it comfortable to sing - wanna listen ) i liked my recording - i doono how but i find it easy .

Akele hain chale aao -My seniors liked it - but the antras made me cry . Man its tough ( we call such compositions - TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK ) hahaha .

Jhalkaaye jaam - all liked it . except me haha . well i was in rhtym this time .

Lakhoon hai hain nigah mein - i should have given some more effort - but you see when i sing with music - i get carried away and miss the notes . but in some lines you can see the UPS and DOWNS .

Zindagi bhar nahi bhulegi -- MD Roshan would have disliked his own composition for what i did with this-- hahaha -- but i tried to demo my high notes - and no need to remind me that this is RAGA ( yaman) based song .

Aaj mausam bada -- this is purely flop show . I will never upload this.

Suhaani raat dhal chuke - just did to pay tribute to -- YOU KNO W WHO . i have uploaded - did you like that ?

In my opinion, you both have really good voices. Meanwhile, here's "huzoor is qadar" that I tried a moment ago.

[kurtcobain]

As good as it gets . your try was better .

come on yaar,
you have a very fresh and peppy voice,and a great pitch. i must add though that your voice is more similar to vipin shachdeva than rafi shahab

here's "huzoor is qadar" that I tried a moment ago.

great recording, well done
your voice is very ghazal-numa, and i had predicted that a song like this would sound great in your voice

i am sending you a rafi-lata duet in the voices of me and my wife(i pleaded her to sing along with me 11 0 clock at night!!!),looking forward to your reviews

[/ShaaNAwaaz\]

As good as it gets . your try was better .

Your wife is the star of that song - thats all i can say(she completely overshadows) - but you are more lucky to have a jeevansathi - who CAN sing , warna aaj kal ki ladkiyan sining door ki baat - they dont even appreciate the old songs , but there are a few exceptions -- and on some personell ground -- i will be not surprised to find out that you are Maharashtraian ---- You have accent and singing style of them -- i hope my guess was right -- " mag kasse kay pahuna - ahe ki nahi dhammal " - { i have all marathi songs of rafi and have uploaded them 12 of them - excellent songs in MAS section )
lastly to add i have a good advantage of being understanding 6 to 7 languages - it helps in singing .


Take care - good luck .

thank you so much yaar, my wife sings so well because she is trained in classical music, and holds a BA degree in classical music in addition to her MBBS

i am sorry to dissapoint you, but we are not maharashtriyan, i am from delhi while my wife is from bhopal (we are both working as doctors in UK)

i am sending you one more recording....i have just sung this after a busy days work, so my voice may sound a bit tired, but this is one of my all time favorite rafi ghazals, 'hum bekhudi mein tumko pukare chale gaaye'

[SAJJAD]

Good effort....just work on the pronunciation! U will be ready 2 take the stage

[kurtcobain]

DEAR SAJJAD,
thank you for your encouragement,

i have heeded your advice and tried to sing the song with more clarity this time, do listen to it and tell me your views.

i can't express to you how encouraging it is to hear your compliments, i have been working so hard, and so long on this , thank you guys, i will soon send you a rafi-lata duet with my wife

Yaar , i didnt knew you posted that in MAS ( you know they dont allow even Great ANwar songs - hum log to bahut door ki baat .

any way i listened to your version of ghazal - and find it sooting - the difference i found in this song and your other posting is that you have filled this song with emotions - and it was also great setting since you were tired - It adds to effect - ALSO WHY NOT GET BACK TO OUR MAIN TOPIC jhalak INSTEAD OF CREATING A NEW - topic .

and iam also attaching my version of hum bekhudi - i recorded on P.C. after listening to your . this song is also having a small introduction start of a similar marathi song by rafi sahab - which i like very much .


lastly , have you read my Tracking thread topic - and list the tracks you possess .
bye
take care .

Hello to all music patrons. Here's my humble attempt at two gems of Rafi, and another creative attempt at a Pancham song. Pardon the unprofessional nature of these recordings.

Thanks for all and any comments
