Guzaarish

Guzaarish Lyrics & Chords

Its been a long time since i have uploaded any song. Well over a year i think ! Last year went by just listening to your wonderful renditions :) This year i thought i better upload something just to justify my muziboo yearly costs of staying a pro member !!

This song from the movie Guzaarish is such a gem. Superbly composed i think its one of the better songs to have come out in the last year or so. Beautiful lyrics and beautiful tune. What more can you want !! I have made an honest attempt at the cover. Hope you like it. I have put in a few variations to the original too which i hope will still sound ok to the ones who know the original really well :)

Although the rust in my singing is evident from my being away for over a year i would insist you dont overlook it and let me know where i can improve. Bas yehi “guzaarish” hain :) Thanks for your time.

Hi Soumitra

Nice to see an upload from you after long.

I really like this song, so I heard your version twice before putting down my feedback:

Musically
I think your voice has a very pleasant texture and feel. Would suggest you to try using vibratos once in a while for sustained landing notes, it might sound even better. This song especially has a lot of such sustained notes, and some vibrato and some more dynamic range (soft vs loud) would add to the overall feel.

The second half of the antara kind of distracted me because there are some timing issues in there, especially with the ‘nanana’ parts and the ‘kal radio pe’ part. It’s kind of behind the beat, I feel.

Technically
Although it’s been mixed well, I think the voice could do with some more reverb and, at the same time, some more presence. There are lot of empty spaces in this song because of the slow tempo and sustained notes, and as soon as the landing note ends, the decay of the reverb (and also the delay) helps fill in the space. The original song is a good reference for this. The wet/dry mix of your reverb is perfect for faster songs, but this song I thought needed some more reverb.

Overall, and notwithstanding my suggestions, I really liked your version. Your voice suited the song really well. Hope you’ll take my comments positively since I prefer giving detailed comments. Also, the critism/ suggestions are just my opinion, just one person’s opinion, so please take it only at face value :)

Cheers
Nitin
