Kailash Kher commences 'Barf Khushi Hai' in his high pitched and by now familiar 'Sufi sound' vocals and then continues in a soft subdued voice, questioning the the right and wrong - " Uunchi meenare lambi qatarein, Choti baharein, Kya yeh sahi hai?" At first, the song strikes one as a trademark Vishal-Shekhar 'disturbing' number after 'Karam' ('Tera Hi Karam') but then the realization that it is Amar Mohile dawns. Hats off for this absolutely outstanding piece of work. In fact, we will go a step further to say that 'Barf Khushi Hai' outdoes Vishal-Shekhar's 'Tera Hi Karam', maybe because of Kailash Kher's brilliant rendition and some great, thought provoking lyrics by Jaideep Sahani (after his mushy 'Salaam Namaste'). One is left spellbound when the song comes to an end.
'Soniye', mainly dominated by Punjabi pop, is a duet by Sunidhi Chauhan and KK but has a touch of traditional 'qawwali' with rock style singing. Basically a potpourri of various styles but the result is quite good. However, some portions of the song are quite similar to the Anil-Madhuri starrer 'Zindagi Ek Jua' ('Dil To Dil Hai'). KK shows his skills as a singer (no high pitched vocals) in this fast paced number.
'Soniye Mix N Match' is a nice upped tempo remix, with the basic rhythm intact. A few nuances are added here and there but do not violate the sanctity of the original composition! Over all a nice dance floor number. |
