Versatile Geniuses – Our Legends
Dear Doston,
I am (inspired by Humtum and Jhumroo Bhai) starting this topic to explore the greatness of legends who have given us so many songs to sing, listen, enjoy, relax and what not. I strongly believe that they all were great not only because they could sing well but also the mutual respect they had in their mind for each other. Not only that , they all were always appreciative of other’s good work, that is what made them great.
In this topic, we will be listing the song sung by these legends (Kishore da and other legends ( Rafi sahib, Mukeshji, Hemant da, Manna da etc.) based on similar themes and /or emotions.
The idea behind is to explore the songs sung by all legends vis-a-vis Kishore's rendition of the song's version or something similar. How the Music Directors used different voice to suit the different sequences and probably different actors too. For example Tum Bin Jaaon Kahan was portrayed on Bharat Bhushan (Kishore) and for Shashi it was Rafi. (Thanks HT Bhai)
This topic is not the place to compare these legends but to explore their versatility, range of singing and ability to generate emotions through singing (what made them great) and gain knowledge.
Members can also post write-ups, interesting stories and other materials about these legends, but please ensure that they are not politically motivated or generate bad taste.
For this topic we all should follow some ground rules,
(i) No uploads
(ii) No comparisons, who was better, who could sung better etc.
(iii) No bad feelings it is only to respect legends
(iv) Can quote some interesting stories about legends but no politics, no malice please
