Koraa Kaagaz Tha- with Satheesh Kumar Nair

Koraa Kaagaz Tha- with Sath... Lyrics & Chords

Thanks to Satheeshettan for coaxing me to sing this song which I so wanted to save from being butchered by yours truly! :P So blame it on him! :D

Only when we sing such old numbers do we realise how difficult and challenging they are when compared to today’s so-called melodies.

BTW I hope you will grant me amnesty for the diction errors (which I myself could spot in a couple of places this time- some improvement huh! :P)

Please do let us have your valuable feedback and comments! Thanks for listening! :)

Movie :Aaraadhana
Music: S.D.Burman
Originally sung by : Kishore Kumar and Lata Mangeshkar

Satheesh and Adithi, Good song pick.

Satheesh – The starting portions could be a bit better. Pitching there seemed to be a tad uncertain:) Antaras were done very well:) You have some innate bass in your voice which suits KishoreDa’s songs:) Diction at places could be better like “BAS gaya Roop” and a couple other places. I am sure Adithi would have made you aware of them:)

Adithi – Your voice is rocking. This is a very difficult song and you did well. You pronounced Neha as Niha:) Neha means eyes, if i am right:) Got ya there:) But you are one of the best singers when it comes to Hindi diction as compared to other non-hindi speakers on this forum:)

Mix was good too. Apart from the couple things I mentioned, it was a pleasant listen:)

One of my most favourite duet of all times:-) Rendering this is itself a challenge….because of the songs popularity. Every little pause, nuances of the original are embedded in our hearts.

Satheesh…loved how you changed your throw to suit kishoreda esp the throw of mera, paheley….were awesome. The initial hey hey….could be a little better…hehe:). But the anthras and thereafter you were rock solid.

Adithi – Beautiful voice and lovely expressive singing as usual. Singing this song at this pitch of lataji is itself a big thing.
Goes to my favourites……very well done overall.

Adithi & Satheesh – what a fab pick!

Satheesh – wonderful throw in your voice, sounded v apt for this Kishoreda piece. The opening could have been a notch better – also i think you could tone down the effects a bit maybe? Not sure if its my headphones though

Adithi – Chain gavaya line and the aaaaa espec were superb, mam. Very sweetly modulated. I think your vocals need to be brought up a bit – Or was the demure feel intended :-P ?

Thanks for bringing this song here,

Totally enjoyed this! One of my favourite melodies of those times. Satheesh, really couldn’t tell that this was a cover. Brilliant singing! Adithi, please sing more hindi! This was simply awesome. Diction issues are negligible, given that your singing style was hindi enough :) Your understanding of nuances is commendable!

Lovely rendition of this evergreen classic, Satheesh and Adithi. Loved it!
@Satheesh – Your voice was flamboyant and shone for this song. However I felt the mix is a bit loud, as it takes away some of the soft romantic feel and effort you must have put in.
@Adithi – Beautiful singing, and no diction issues yaar! :-)
Harkats were really nicely done by both of you.
@Satheesh – could you re-work your mix and soften the vocal settings, your voice took over a bit for this mix.

Great voices on a great song. Loved it.
Actually loved the start very much although highly processed.
Adithi your vocals are very aptly nimble and sweet for the role in this song.
Satheesh your throw and depth of voice is excellent. Great voice. On the constructive side, I was looking for a bit more lilting and enjoyment in the words though.
