Hindi songs of Emotional Impact - nostalgic, favorites etc

[madhu]

some more top rated song of Mohd. Rafi sahib

Yeh duniya from Heer Ranjha ( dont look at that expressionless waxy face of the heroine :kikiki: )



Lovely Sadhana and expressive Rajendrakumar from Mere mehboob ( They say...Love starts from the eyes.)



Bonus ( Lata's version )

[madhu]

Here an ever haunting melody of Rafi and Lata from Taj Mahal

( Seems that they never gave importance to the appearance of the names in Title. Bina Roy came before Pradeep kumar and Mohd.Rafi is the last in the list - of course with a "&" symbol )

I agree. By 60s already Rafi is the top singer of all of them, still didn't feel good that his name appeared last, like an additional singer.

Looks like there was a tough competition between Madan Mohan ji and Roshan ji in who was best using Talat ji in 50s. The winner is always we listeners. Roshan ji magic again. Two beautiful compostions from the film Raagrang (1952). One a solo by Talat and another a duet with Lata. Compositions like this will never be made.

Aur Hai Dil Ki Lagi. The vibrant piano and wind instrument starts in a brisky fashion leading to a swinging violins followed by breezy sarangi. Talat ji starts the song with his bright voice, yet you can hear the pain in his voice. One of my all time favorite, not just Talat's and Roshan's. The composition takes a wavy structure and passes through us gently and takes us completely. The violins, sarangi and sitar interludes adds more honey towards the composition. Excellent lyrics by Kaif Irfani. I am completely floored by this composition, will take with me for ever. Roshan ji and Talati ji.



Dil-E-Beqraar Soja. A sober lullaby by Talat and Lata, just when you need a good night sleep after a busy big day. We become a kid hearing this beauty. We get some unknown happiness which words fail to describe. We can go into perfect dreams beyond this planet.

A dance-song and a dance by Padmini from Pardesi (1957)

The good versions seems to disappear often but now the whole film is uploaded by 'mosfilm' possibly one of the owners. The dances are about ten minutes and thirty minutes into the second part of the film. I love the first dance since it does not seem to need any specialized knowledge of Indian dances.
