Some Evergreen Songs (in My Voice)...

Dear friends,

Here is my first song for you. Needless to say, it is of my favorite singer. 'Pukarata Chala Hu Main' with Karaoke.

Constructive feedback would be more than welcome!






If you like it, you are welcome to farmaish! I prefer Rafi Saab's songs from 50s and 60s.

Friends, there was some problem and the above file was not playing. I have fixed it now, kindly click on the play button below! Thanks.

Hiya Mate,

Enjoyed your Rafi rendition, I’ve written comments on your esnips profile, but aint gonna stop me from commenting again, Wah Wah

Nice one, enjoyed that.


Keep em coming

Anwar Mian, thanks for your kind comments.

Listened to your 'Mujhe dard-e-dil Ka Pata Na Tha' and left some comments on esnips. Where did you manage to get the karaoke of that track? Can you pls upload it on HF or give the location?

Thx!

Good job, King Rafi.

Sorry for the late reply, I've only just seen your request

Here's your track for MUJHE DARD E DIL KA PATHA NA THA

Well done King Rafi sahab. Keep it up.
Sanjay

KR,

It is not playing again, I think. Could you check?

Venkat

@King Kishore and @sanjkash, thx for the compliments!

@anwar mian, thx for the karaoke track. I'll d/l it after improving my ratio, in a day or two!

@venkat, ust checked, and it is working. The golden one is NOT working, but the blue one (in the second post) is working. Pls do give it another try!

Since I am newbie here, my posts appear 24 hrs after posting, so pls bear with me.

KR.....you are absolutely marvelous. you have such a nice feel in your voice..i am just amazed. PLEASE keep singing...farmaish? ...what about Ehsan tera hoga mujh par dil chahta hai....junglee? i know that you will really really sing that beautifully....

nice one - King Rafi ! You have a pleasant voice - keep it up.

could you share the karaoke track used ?

Sri

Sure! I'll share my entire collection of 'Rafi Solo Karaoke' in the Rafi section over a period of time. I have some 14 CDs.

King Rafiji, you have a wonderful voice. Why dont u add little echo to ur voice. It would surely sound much better than now.. Just my opinion... And please do share the song 'Pukarta chala hoon main'... And please rip it in at least 160 kbps so that one can use it to record his voice ... Expecting lot more songs in ur lovely voice..

Sanjay, dekh ek aur Sitara Chamaka HF ke aasman par..

Well Done!!

p.s. King Rafiji, could u please guide on how to use this enips player the way u have used it here? And how can I download ur song 'Pukarta chala hoon main'?

Hi King Rafi,

I just got to play and hear your "Pukarta Chala Hun Main" song. Here are my candid comments.

1. On the whole, a very good job.

2. I specially congratulate your Guitarist who did good justice to the lovely (but not so easy) guitar bits of the Original.

3. You guys got the Laya (ie. the beat and pace) of the song quite correct. Mind you, this is always important.

4.You have a nice voice and your rendition was good.

5. But, you have selected a fairly difficult song. In the original, Rafi Saab does not sing even one syllable in a plain manner, but keeps on throwing in sangats/harkatein/adayen everywhere! For instance, at one place, he says, "Pookaarta Chalaa Hun Mmmain' in an intoxicated manner.You know what I mean.

Of course, even you have tried to throw in some of those harkatein, but then there is more to do.

Finally, as there cannot be another Rafi, I do appreciate your attempt and would love to hear more such from you.

Venkat

@omkar, thanks! I have indeed added echo. But adding echo is like a ceiling fan. It is either too fast or too slow! I have spoiled many a songs by putting too much echo. I do it the hardware way, need to learn using to so it with a software.

I’ll def. share the karaoke track in the next 24 hrs. Currently I am busy preparing for our colony musical programme that happens during Ganpati festival. I have to sing 4 songs (2 solo and 2 duets)

@venkat, thanks! BTW, I have no guitarist! It is a track by Nupur Audio. I also have the track by Vale Music, and background music wise, I think Vale is better. But the problem is the music played at the time of vocal is so loud, it mars the vocals. I’ll upload both versions of ‘Pukarta’ in the Rafi section.

My biggest problem is my sense of timing and rhythm. So I had absolutely no option but to choose a song that is simple on the beats. Recently, at a programme I was to sing ‘Mana Tadapata’ but simply could not fit in the taans in the time cycle, so was forced to change to ‘Dil ka Bhawar Kare Pukar’

I feel privileged that you thought I am good enough to even think of comparing with the great one!
