Bol Re Papeehara...

I have not been overly fond of this song since the original song in the movie Guddi was at a very high pitch with too little bass for my liking. But I unexpectedly had to learn this song and sing it for a show a few weeks back and I started appreciating the raga, Miyaan Ki Malhaar. So here's my attempt of a romantic melody in which a girl wishes for the monsoon clouds to carry her message to her lover.

PS: I know the widget doesn't suit the mood of the raag, but.... oh well... (I liked it too much) :-p!

Great singing!! As I said earlier, reverb could have been a wee bit lesser IMO.
Eagerly waiting for the video!! :D

Very beautiful!! As Sindhuja pointed out the reverb is a bit distracting and could have been toned down to showcase your voice better.

SUMI said...

Yeah, I really need to look into getting the settings on my recording software and hardware right...!

I like how you sang is slower than the song in the movie. It gives the listener time to hear the notes completely....I think. Good job!

SUMI said...

thanks Megha!
