Dil Ne tumko
Chun Liya hai.
Tum bhi Isko
Chuno na
Khawb koi
Dekhta hai
Tum bhi Sapne
Buno Naa.
Dil ye mera
Tumse kuch keh raha hai.
Suno naa.
Suno naa.
Mera Priya Shantanu.:)
Talking of Shaan brings a smile on your face. Such a Lovely smile! He Poses.
Shaan, Smile and Songs have a very old and close relationship. A Self-made man who is Choo-Cheewt that only looking at him you go smiling.
Suno Naa. I think is the best song shaan ever sung. And If I’m Not mistaken, he got his 1st award for this song too.
The melody, and feelings AND SMILE(which is present in all his songs); I just cant skip his face when I hear this song. Apparently, its one of my most loved songs too. "Suno Naa."
Ok! There’s one more thing apparent abt this young lad, I think you all will agree to.
When I hear Tanhayee From Dil Chahata Hai I Imagine Aamir Khan.
When I hear Aur Kya From Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani I Imagine Shahrukh Khan.
When I hear Tu Hi Meri Shab Hai From Gangster I Imagine Emran Hashmi.
But, when I hear Suno Naa. the only person on my mind is Shaan.:)
Another of his songs, which requires a mention in my Good books is "Gum-sum ho kyo?" from album Tanha Dil.
The Lines:
Tum Jo Hasti ho To ye mausam Muskurata hai,
Kaliya khilti hai saara aalam Gungunata hai.
Dekho Kabhi, Rona Nahi,
Mujhko rula-o-na
Gum-Sum Ho Kyu!
Paas aa-o-na
Ruthe ho Kyu
Maan Jaa-o-na
They work real hard on me to get me out of any tensions I’m in, and I must say they work.
More than Shaan’s Melody and Lyrics, its him that I like. His Honesty, dedication and humbleness, which is clearly visible in all of his songs.
One of my all time favorite is the song "Ye Hawaae" from Bas Itna sa Khawb hai.
Chume nigaahonse chehera tera
hoto se chule phir
daaman tera
apni panahomein tujhko bhare
teri aarzu ko paresha kare.
And again, more than the lyrics and the melody, its shaans sweetness in the song that I like. The way he has sung it makes it special.
Speaking abt specialty, Aksar one of his recent albums which almost went unnoticed had one very special song in it.
Aksar Kyu yu lage ke tum koi aur ho
hum tum jaha the mile woh guzra hua daur ho
aksar phir yu lage ke tum meri jaan ho
tum hi meri zindagi tum hi meri pehchaan ho
Aksar! Dil hi dil aksar,
tumhe soch kar,
Dil hi dil aksar.
He has worked on this song for a very long time and has come up with a brilliant composition with lyrics of his own too. the preceeding para has a very sweet messg.
Aksar! Dil ko hai gila
ke tumse mujhe kya mila
meri zindagi, mere pyaar ka,
tumne diya kya sila.
phir kabhi jab kareeb se
mein tumko dekhlu agar
dil ke Aaiene mein bas
tumhi tum aaogi nazar
Aksar! Dil hi dil Aksar.
A very true feeling, very truly perceived.
Lastly, a very impressive song by him which was never on the chart busters ever, but surely deserves an applause is "Is Pyaar Mein" From Tanha Dil.
Ek pal meri jaan ho
Ek pal anjaan ho
Ek pal uljhan si ho
Ek pal aaraam ho
Ek duje ko ham suljhate rahe
Par kabhi bhi samajh naa sake.
Lamha Lamha jalte rahe
Haaaaaaa.
Is Pyaar Mein.
Hats -off to Shaan.
