]]> Comment on The versatile singer – Mohammed Rafi by spsyed http://melodyjuction.wordpress.com/2008/10/08/the-versatile-singer-mohammed-rafi/#comment-103 spsyed Mon, 11 May 2009 21:11:57 +0000 http://melodyjuction.wordpress.com/?p=96#comment-103 Mohammed Rafi still continues to entertain millions around the world everyday. That makes Rafi heritage, his perfect voice evergreen and his unique legacy immortal. He was above religious, race, cast, sect, political, national and even commercial differences. He politely refused to imitate other singers in case they get offended. "Kehta hai koi dil gaya, dil bar gaya. Sahil hai pukarta, samandar chala gaya. Jo baat sach hai kehta nahin koi, keh es dunya se museeqi ka payambar chala gaya," according to one tribute to Rafi sahib by the great lyricist Gulzar. That sums up the late great singer Mohammed Rafi. So, is it fair to compare him with others, alive or dead? As a Rafi-family friend, and neighbour in London, for over 50 years, I am honoured to have met the most humble, honourable and modest man that I ever knew in my whole lifetime. Some of his best songs are available subscription free at http://www.youtube.com/spsyed – a website dedicated to the entertainers and their fans.

]]> Comment on Why more hype for RD Burman and Kishore? by Neelesh Kalyanpur http://melodyjuction.wordpress.com/2008/10/09/why-more-hype-for-rd-burman-and-kishore/#comment-99 Neelesh Kalyanpur Fri, 20 Feb 2009 18:49:48 +0000 http://melodyjuction.wordpress.com/?p=110#comment-99 When people speak about RD they talk mostly about his popular songs such as Aaja aaja main hoon pyar tera, Piya tu ab to aaja, Mehbooba Mehbooba, Chura liya hai tumne, Dum maro dum, Saagar kinare, Ek ladki ko dekha etc., but the fact remains that there are hundreds of superb compositions of RD which went unnoticed, mainly because the films did not do well at the box-office. Listen to the music of these films and think again over the article you have written and you will realise that you are grossly wrong in what you are saying. Just listen to the songs of : 1) Teri Kasam (1982) 2) The Burning Train (1980) 3) Sitamgar (1985) 4) Alag Alag (1985) 5) Yeh Vaada Raha (1982) 6) Namumkin (1988) 7) Raksha (1980) 8) Oonche Log (1984) 9) Karishmaa (1983) 10) Jurmana (1978) 11) Zameen Aasmaan (1984) 12) Bade Dilwala (1984) 13) Duniya (1984) 14) Ratnadeep (1979) 15) Tum Karo Vaada (1993) 16) Shubhkaamna (1983) 17) Main Awara Hoon (1983) 18) Humshakal (1974) 19) Bulundi (1980) 20) Dhandaulat (1981) 21) Basera (1981) 22) Anand Aur Anand (1984) 23) Jaane Jaan (1983) 24) Libaas (unreleased) 25) Sanam Teri Kasam (1982) These are only a few, I can list many more films with good songs by RD. Also, please tell me is it RD & Kishore's fault that they continue to be more popular than your other legends ? Also weren't the other legends like O.P.Nayyar & Naushad around in the 1970s & 1980S when RD was in top form ? What were they doing then ? Face it. Every composer has a good and bad phase in their careers. Both RD & Kishore struck a chord with the people when music itself was getting revolutionised. RD was the master of rhythm. He composed different kinds of music...Every song sounded different...even the orchestration was different for each song...there was no monotony. The other legends refused to accept change...RD was a favourite of both Kishore & Rafisaab. He gave them his best songs which continue to be more popular even today.
