Woh Sham Kuchh Ajeeb Thi - Cover: Madhukar Mehta

Woh Sham Kuchh Ajeeb Thi - ... Lyrics & Chords

This is one more of Kishore da’s Gems which is quite difficult for me to sing but had to give it a try.

I am slowly getting the hang of recording and mixing, hopefully you see the difference from my earlier two songs. Of course, Wazif bhai has been on my side helping me immensely ……. I can’t thank Wazif bhai enough for his dedication to help a new comer like me.

I would appreciate if you could listen to this rendition and provide me with your valuable feedback.

Song: Who Sham Kuchh Ajeeb Thi
Movie: Khamoshi (1969)
Lyrics: Gulzar
Music Director: Hemant Kumar
Original Singer: Immortal Kishore Kumar
Covered By: Madhukar Mehta

It is a pleasure to listen to this song in your voice. Nice feel. You do have a nice, steady voice. I will leave the discussion of recording to all the “Quincy Jones” of this forum. A couple of places tested your breath and that gave it a live-one stretch singing feel.
Enjoyed it.

Madhukarji ….great song pick of Kishoreda. Very good singing, its not an easy song to cover. Here you have displayed good breath control to a great extent…improvement areas would be to enhance the feel of the song by voice modulations….liked your attempt.

Sarmi ji, Thanks for your words of encouragement. Actually, I take full responsibility for any “screw ups” there are in recording and mixing…… Dear Wazif bhai has been a true friend in providing the advise, education, time, efforts, and I went on to make final sets of changes on my own for the rendition that has been uploaded.

Dear Harshan ji, Yes…. this as I have said has been a difficult song to sing for me…… but I believe in reaching for stars!! Working hard is what I mean.

I know my place compared to Kishore da… no way I am trying to sound like him but using his classics, I am doing my best to improve my vocals as I have been away for too long…. Thank you very much for being there for me as I started my journey here at Muziboo.

Madhukar ji thanks so much for mentioning my name again for this mixing…. Just listened to it again after you tweaked the mixing effects a bit…. I loved your singing like I told while checking the mixing and it somehow forced me to sing this song as well :) soon I’ll sing this one…. you sang it beautifully and like you asked for I’ll share points for improvement with your permission; When singing please keep mouth bit far from the mic like 6-12 inch away as required …. a little more reverb was missing that can be added…. finally a better breath control and modulation on sustaining notes can make your rendition more good. I look forward to listen to more of such songs in your voice…. keep sharing like that :) Thanks

Best of Luck!!!

Madhukar Sir, a real treat today for me. Beautiful song, great singing, very good voice. Am not the one to comment on mixing as my “walking disaster” status in the matter, has not changed as yet. :)

@ Madhukar Ji… a very nice effort… definitely some visible improvement in your recording… you have a very intense voice suited for pathos numbers…. like mukesh ji’s voice had pathos inbuilt into it… with a little more of feel you can enhance your rendition to a greater plane… good going… :)

Sorry for being late here….

Glad to see you coming with a very favourite song of mine… I too had covered this….

Good job done Madhukar ji…Very expressive and nice feel… Just felt the pitch a bit high for you… the high notes were not touched with perfection and could feel slight strain….

Overall a nice one…
