[Shakthiprabha]

herez another.....

"panchi banoon udthi phiroon mast gagan mein
aaj mein aazad hoon...."

Freedom thats life....atleast from a woman's point of view, is too precious, reminds of of jj's song

"chittukuruvikkena kattupaadu thendrale unakkedhu sondah veedu
ulagam muzhudhum...parandhu parandhu ... "

Dwijavanthi....I think vs added more understanding as to how much I have listened to the raaga with "akhilaandeshwari"
Raaga is capable of shifting u elsewhere...literally...mayangiye pogalam....beautiaful raaga.
Drip by drip, need to be soaked in this raaga. oh wow.

I should say most voices prior to 60s....has something very natural in them...so very easy to relate.

Very well put SP

Thanks a lot raj sir and sp for sharing Nargis and Shankar-Jaikishen classic! Seeing how the 'panchi banoon' was composed and picturized, back then hindi film industry was firmly to their roots, but now all songs are generic (hawa hawa mein ) and no reflection of our culture, very sad!

Here is a song from Yaadon Ki Baaraat(1973)



I understand that the movie was remade in Hindi,Tamil and Telugu. Here are the songs from the remakes:

Raj : Thnx for sharing these songs from YAADON KI BHARAT and also reminiscences from your childhood.

SP : Thnx for sharing "Panchi banoon udthi phiroon" and "Aaja sanam madhur chandni mein hum" - such peppy numbers.

If you liked Madhmad (madhmadhavi) sarang here is another song from Rani Rupmati(1957)

Mukesh:




Lata Mangeshkar:






".......ik pal hai hansna ik pal hai ronaa..........."

That is life!

You can relate madhyamavati more easily with this song!

Designer: You are welcome!

Have a good weekend!

Here is a song in Malkauns I like. One listener says that Rafi considered this as one of the best 25 songs he sang.

Zindhaga bhar gham......from Miss Bombay(1957):





Malkauns is Hindholam in carnatic system.

oooh! raj sir neenga neengathaan naanga naangathaan. Can't thank you enough for Zindagi Bhar Gham Judai. I have already listened to it 25 times and still going strong. What a composition by Hansraj Behl and outstanding singing by singing God, Rafi saab. Not surprised that he listed this one as one of his best 25 songs. I have heard a lot about Hansraj Behl that he composed some great songs in 50's for Saawan, Milan, Rajdhani, Changez Khan, but not yet listened to him so far. This is my first song from him, should listen to him more often after listening to this extremely beautiful composition. Thanks again!

My small contribution again from Rafi saab with inimitable combination of Madan Mohan ji (my all time favorite and top most hindi composer). Teri Aankhon Mein Siva Duniya Mein from Chirag (1969). Wonderful lyrics by Majrooh Sultanpuri. Anytime listen, great voice and what a graceful singing! I fall flat to Madan ji feet for this tremendous composition. The beauty is when Rafi sings 'Mera jeena mera marna inhi palkonke thaley', a big kiss to Rafi saab. Followed by Lata ji in her memerizing voice, feels like a mother singing this as a lullaby. A very rare song and some excellent poetry by Majrooh and out of the world composition by Madan ji. These songs are never born again. What more can I say!
