Twenty Best Hindi Songs

Personally, music whether old or new, cannot be best or better or bad. As long as there is melody, lyrics and most important a good lively voice, any song is great. Consider this - Tum bin jaun kahan has been sung by both Kishore n Rafi but does anyone remember hearing Rafi sing the song? Similarily, Ek ladki ko dekha to aisa laga is sung by Lata as well as Kumar shanu but does anyone remember Lata? Both Lata & Rafi are technically much better than Shanu or Kishore, but somehow . However, its so difficult to prioritize & put 20 best. U dont know what to choose & what to leave and I have finally left it now. Giving the best 20(+1) which came to my mind. Heres my list(not in order):

1. Zindagi ka safar hai ye kaisa safar(reportedly also Kishores favourite)

   
   




2. Jane kya dhundti rehti hai ye aankhen mujhme(Rafi)

   
   




3. Zindagi kaisi hai paheli hai(Manna dey)

7. Yaad na aaye bitey dino ki(Rafi)
