This a good song that I love singing along with. The modulation in the voice, amazing.
Shailendra's lyrics ... do I need say more?
ghaayal mann ka paagal panchii,
urhhnay ko baeqaraar, urhhnay ko baeqaraar
pankh haen komal, aankh hae dhunddlii
jaana hae saagar paar, jaana hae saagar paar
ab tu hii isse samjhaa, ab tu hii isse samjhaa,
raah bhuulay thay kahaan se hum ...

While conversing with a friend online yesterday who also happens to be a member here, I was asked to take more interest in Rafi & Lata. This was due to my informing him that my average downloads at HF constitute more of Talat's songs than any other, unless we're going by size; then obviously Raag Rang section wins hands down, thanks to an average upload from there being around 8MB.
During this conversation while I also encouraged my friend to try out Veer Zaara, even if just for the 2nd CD of the collection, we also briefly touched upon Manna Dey, thanks to this post. Both of us were of the opinion & I'm assuming others will agree that the talented Manna Dey was & is an under-appreciated singer from the HFM scene of that era. His humble nature doesn't let him answer with anything besides the humility filled replies regarding himself & his contemporaries that we get to hear. I recall his comments from an interview/excerpt that I read recently through the MAS section, in which the giant himself had said that when it came to romantic renditions of a song, Rafi held first place and Talat second. And he simply couldn't compete with them on that level.
Classical training plays an important role in making good songs, but in the end, the rendition, the style, the way the product is delivered is what matters to the listener. What sums it all up for an average listener is what one of our wise member also writes in her signature, 'I don't understand music, I just enjoy it'.
Maybe technically Manna Dey's singing was far better than Talat or Kishore or any other contemporary, yet what we see is that they clicked and that is what mattered to the listening crowd.
