Tum Ho Toh (Rock On)
Tum Ho Toh (Rock On) Lyrics & Chords
One helluva song from Rock On! A brilliant composition by SEL and a nice crooning by the junior Akhtar, leaves the audience asking for more.
The lyrics in this song appeal to me a lot – they mean a lot to me. Hope, this rendition of mine appeals to you, too, as it does to me.
Feedbacks, please :-)

Good job man. Echo the points above…. great voice, pretty good mix, compression definitely required, timing issue at certain points. I liked your initial falsettos, but the ooooo part after “yeh zindagi” could have been better.
I enjoyed this thoroughly!

Very good effort on a difficult song. All improvement areas are covered upstairs, you have a very nice voice ……let me add one more thing ….the feeling of despair didnt really come out consistently well, ….some places …e.g raste kahan …….the voice throw ….changes the mood of the song:-)Nevertheless this is a great effort bro….

Very good attempt, Bodhi. Good voice and good mixing. The first falsetto was really good, but the second falsetto went off-note.
Overall, good job! Keep uploading.

Thanks a Lot, everybody…. for the honest and wonderful feedback…. :-)
@Azam & George: I did apply compression to the voice track before mixing it…. but maybe something more needs to be done…. :-(
@George & Rashmi: Regarding the falsettos…. well…. I am sorry but probably the second one did go a bit on the off….
@Sree: I get wat you said about the ‘Raste Kahaan’…. in fact, I should say, the word ‘kahaan’ only made a lot of difference in the mood…. :-)

Bodhi

Deepak Nayak said
Hey,
Great effort… Here is what I think…
Singing:
- Nice and clear voice
- Keeping up with the rhythm seemed like an issue in the song… You missed it a couple of times…
Recording:
- Looks like you used stereo split on the vocal track and delay too…
- Vocals sounded panned off left towards the end, but the track quality was good…
All in all a good effort… Keep up the good work… Cheers… \m/

Thanks, Deepak…. Rhythm, well a bit of an issue. tru….
As for vocals… yes… i did split it in stereo… i dont have any other idea how to bring about a stereo effect…. :-(

Superb rendition given to a very difficult number. I’m particularly amazed at the power on your higher notes and also the sustainability in sync. I will not point out any flaws here ’coz that would be an injustice to your great effort. I did enjoy your rendition to the fullest. ROCK ON, Bro.

Neha ........ said
How in the world did I miss this before? Well I fell in love this song after I heard George’s version. (you should check it out if u haven’t)
Veery verry well rendered Bodhi, I think the lil issues that have already been mentioned in the comments above are also to do the fact that you do not use proper recording gear (same pinch) Get geared up and you’ll surely sound like a pro :-) 5/5 from me on this one !! :D Simply loved ur energy and expressions :)
Neha ........ said
(I am assuming abt the recording gear frm what you mentioned in ur intro, mixing is real good though)
Bodhisattva Dasgupta
said
he he neha… i agree…… heard George’s version… thats a grr88 one…… my gear?? well i have none…. even people who chat on the net regularly will refuse to use my mic… ;-) but still…. it has stood by my side for some time now…. but am actually planning on buying a good mic…. will redo some of my fav songs once i get it…. thanks a lot again, Neha… :)

Arvind R said
Nice singing Bodhi … the mix was kinda busy and your voice was a bit submerged in places. The falsettos were nice and loved the slides that you had there. Your voice is good; got the feeing that you are not using your chest that much … these kind of songs cannot be all sung with just the throat IMO … you need the voice to dig deeper beyond the throat and resonate from inside if you know what I mean. I think you can do it with some attention and practice. That will give a more intimate singing experience for you and for listeners. Also felt that you did not employ softness where it was needed. Just my thoughts but overall good. Cheers.

Thanks a lot Arvind…. great analysis… will surely try n employ what you advised here…. thnx a lot, again :)

Bodhi I appreciate the way u sang this number. It is not that easy to sing, you did blend your soul with the music and that got the best of YOU.
Just enjoying it. Your diction and style is unique, expressed with ease, a right throw for the lovely voice and simply SUPERB!
You have got all 10/5.

Jubin Jacob said
hi there, hope my suggestions will be useful….
at 0:20 (gaata hai dil) and 2:22 (raahe bhi hain), ur voice sounds a bit classical….
0:34 (tum ho to) was good, 2:34 (same lyrics) was excellent!!!
0:56 (sapnon….hasee) had a variation in tune…. was it deliberate?
1:00-1:33 was mind-blowing!!
1:33-1:36 high pitch transition cud have been better….
1:41 (zindagi) the line shd have ended on a lower pitch……
1:53 (ooo….) shd have been slightly louder, i think….
2:55 i’m not sure if the lyrics are this way….
but overall, a fantastic composition…. keep belting out more!! :)

this one suits u….perfect…

said
Thanks, Nikita :)
Jubin – thanks a lot, man…. what a gr8 analysis… :) it actually made me listen again with attention to those places…. for the parts where u praised, thanks a lot … for 0:56, well that wasnt actually deliberate…. but in the major part of the song, i allowed myself to do what i felt without deviating from the basic framework…. i guess thats why….
1:41 , u r bang on…. i knew this the moment i heard my recording, but was too lazy to re-record….

Nice one Bodhi… a little pitchy at times and tempo issues as well. Falsetto’s could have been better, but guess it’s not easy transitioning as one puts it :) So guess you will get it with time !
