"Yehi Zindagi Hai To" - Sameer at his best!

Sameer, the son of well know poet Anjaan, is famous for writing melodious words for movies such as Dil, Aashiqui, Haseena Maan Jaye Gee, Soldier, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, and many more.

"Yehi Zindagee Hai To" is one of Sameer's creations that touches your heart immediately. When I heard this song the first time, words became moving images in my mind. I felt seriously affected by the powerful poetry. The soulful voice of Hariharan only added to the graveness of those effects.

I loved recording this song with background overlaps and chorus and all. I hope you all will lend an ear at your leisure.

Movie : Traffic Signal
Singer : Hariharan, Sangeet Haldipur
Music : Shamir Tandon
Lyrics : Sameer

  4. Hi Azamji,
    Different kind of a song. Shows your versatility. So many overlap vocals ...I can imagine quite a planning went into creating these vocals. Keep going dear!!!

  5. Excellent singing once again Azam...There were some off key notes here and there but that did not affect the overall feel of the song.I think you are already out of the Rafi...style and are finding your own style and rendering which is highly commendable..

  6. Azam,
    Such a difficult song and you really made it with such an ease singing all parts - chorus,
    alaaps.....overlapping and mixing. Excellent piece of work and a perfect delight to listen in your beautiful voice. Mindblowing!

  9. Yehi Zindagi Hai:

    Abhi tak to zindagi key lapait mein sab hain. Gir ke Uthna aur phir zindagi ki barsaat mein bhig kar agey nikalna to sabko kisi na kisi jagah pe mauka mila hoga. Is ganey ko suney ke baad, apan ko apan ki puri zindagi flash back mein yaaad aa gayaa. Kuch lamhein hasi ke yaad aye, kuch lamhein pyaar bharey woh do labzon ke yaad aye jo kisi dost ne kaha tha. Kuch lamhein aur yaad aye jo kabhi der raat ke saye mein baithey doston ke beech mein katey the.

    Kahin tutey khabon mein chubti rahi, kahin bhook bankey yeh dukhti rahi, kahin behasara bhatakti rahi, kahin rishta bankey khatakti rahi hai...yeh to zindagi hai...

    Awaz ki kashish aur ganey ke labzon neh apan ko bahut move kiya. Agar ek dost ka woh haat na hota to apan to kabka nikal chuka hota...

    Chota Khaan Salaam karta hai apko.

    bahut pyar...

  17. RK, Harshan,Awatts,
    Thank you friends for lending an ear to my rendition.

    Somas, welcome to my blog. Thank you so much for your comments. You are right about complicated recording. This song was done on a very tight schedule for a competetion. If I had taken my time on it, it could have come out even better!

  19. Azam Bhai,
    I have been listening to your songs since last year but this is the first time that I am writing my comments.
    Although I have not listened to the orignal version but your performance on this does sound superb. Now I'll have to listen to the orignal song!
    One thing I must say is that you choose the very difficult songs and perform them so well that one can easily mistake your version with orignal song.
    Pls include some of Rahat Fateh Ali's songs here also (if possible)..
    Thanks
    Imran
