hello, dear friends,
as far as, the play back singer, kumar sanu is concerned, one who, a true lover of music, can easily find some special qualities on him. first of all, regarding his sound, is too softness..esp when singing sad songs, any one can tell name of any singer who hav smooth or sof sound?.no ! and most thickness sound is sonu (who alwaz trying to copy the singing style of KS), and most drawback of udit is inability to sing sad song with good style.
well, no doubt sanu has done good work in the past in quite a few songs. he surely has potential and talent. but i guess too much KS in the 90s (with every song biginning with the same "aaaey heyyyy") has lost him favors. here i would like to post my opinion that udit does a great job with most kind of songs. including sad and romantic songs.

and some people who strongly reject ks, and in most cases they havnt getting the points, or draw backs of ks. so they continously complainig abt his nasal voice. if ks sings in this manner, and producers, directors, MDs r have no problem at all, and even most song getting hits.. then who has the problem?? it may be his style of singing. every body will hav their own singing style.
sure.. as just like evrybody has his own singing style, they have their limitations and drawbacks. not everybody is THE most perfect singer. (i wont name any legeds who i think are.. just to keep this thread related and not relative)

now more MDs realising the fact, that is it may be needed presence of ks for the musical hit of film. his quality of singing is 100%, so we coundnt get bored or stop hearing quickly, songs will be ever remembering one.
again, there is no such things as 100% quality. sure he might be well suited to give hit songs 9which is no measure of quality). but i personally feel that KS (also) has limitations with his singing, also a great MD like AR Rahman has chosen a whole bunch of diverse singers, his compositions usually require a very competetive singer, he streches the singers.. demands performance.. and yet i feel that KS hasn't been involved in too many of his songs. frankly, when i hear songs like "chaiyan chaiyan" or "satrangi" or "ae ajnabi" or "zor laga ek nachey re" or "jiya jaley jaan jaley" or "nahi samney yeh alag baat hai", which requires tons of vocals (ans notice i mentioned all different singers here).. i dont see KS pulling them off (although he did a good job in "mil gayi mail gay woh manzilen). even the song "shab ke jagey huey" is better sung by alka, if u compare them head to head. (too classical based maybe??
for KS's taste ??)
i have read a couple of times, a fellow member refered to Anu malik, claiming KS to be a superstar (i have no doubts that he is).. but the source himself is famous for rip offs... many of his songs are non original.. and although my knowledge confines me, i am not aware of any classical or ever green compositions put forward by anu malik. and him opinioning to parallel KS with the great legends (who have worked with legendary composers) is quite a stretch...
even the best songs to KS's credit are mostly from other directors (like nadeem sharavan and pancham da)

does these qualities is enough to more songs? indeed! then why not getting mor songs, and eliminating songs he sung from film. it is because, there is a clear conspirancy against him. and it leads by Smitha Thackery! yes she is the women who wants to withdraw KS from film industry. but we can see that MDs coudlnt think abt eliminating him !.
THAT IS THE FACT
sure, if its true, its sad that he has been done injustice to.. if for any thing, he can surely bring diversity in the music scene and should be entitled to a healthy competition with different popular singers. even though they might be more classicaly trained (and capable)
apart from eevry opinion that i have put. i would like this to be the final note.. KS swept the industry with his amazing songs and his kk like voice off the feet. he may not be perfect. but he's a good singer without doubt. no one can accept to make it this big with no talent or too much technical flaws.
just my opinions. not meant to step on anybody's toes here.. hey, i don't want this to turn itno anything similar to a few other previous threads..
PS.. pay attention to my signature too. thats what i live by
