Indian Ghazal Mastero Jagjit Singh, who passed away in early hours on 5/Oct/11 has left a tremendous impression on me with his soulful voice. I could feel the sentiments in his voice. Be there are songs of separation, expressing emotions, happiness, naughtiness and you name a emotion, he has expressed almost all of them through his various songs. His voice resonates with the heart and takes you through it; through the journey of emotions. I am gonna miss him.
Here are the few songs of Jagjit Singh, my all time favorite.
To audience outside India: These songs are in hindi, but still you should listen to them to understand how a soulful voice can communicate the meaning even if you don’t understand the language.
Tum Itna Jo Muskura Rahe Ho – Arth
HOTON SE CHULO TUM
Tum Ko Dekha To Ye Khayal Aaya
