I hold this song dearly for one reason. When we bought a CD player at home, Pardes was the first music CD that we (I and my brother) played. We played the CD all day and night long. The experience of listening to music from a CD player was totally new and exciting. Even at night, I would play the music in a low volume and spent almost the entire night without sleeping. I still remember that time clearly.

Nadeem-Sharavan was a hit music duo of Hindi film industry. Their songs are beautiful and melodious. This song from Pardes is no different. The karaoke track had lots of problems. It slowed up after sometime and then fastened up in between. On and off. So it was really difficult to sing along, however I couldn't resist singing this beautiful song. :-) Here is my humble try in singing Do Dil Mil Rahe Hain from Pardes. Do let me know what you think.

Movie: Pardes
Music: Nadeem-Shravan
Originally sung by: Kumar Sanu

    Jo, good singing as usual (could work a bit on the pronunciations though)..but, the karoke track wasn't too impressive...I would've preferred your vocal track alone! By the way, this song is close to my heart too :)

    I've been there and done that myself. True...to transition from Analog to digital music is a fantastic feeling indeed !

    This song is a wonderful melody by NS no doubt. Sad that they split..( didn't they). NS have given some great melodies !!!

    Now to you - Great singing indeed! Soft...and melodious..! Way to go Jo.

    I can fully empathize with what you have said Jo. I have been there too.

    A beautiful song very nicely sung Jo.

    >> RK: Thank you RK. :-)

    >> G U R U: Thanks Guru. :-) Yeah, I agree that the karaoke isn't good. I had a tough time singing too!

    >> NV: Oh yeah, the crystal clear sound and to listen to the music in the night was an unforgettable experience. Later, iPod has done the same magic. :-) Thanks for your comments bro.

    >> Rama: Thank you very much! :-)

    I still remember this song making waves when it hit the music scene then!!

    Very soothing, although agree with many on the quality of the k-track

    Every song in this movie was a gem... And I LOVED this song too and keep wishing it was sung by someone other than Kumar Sanu.
    You've done a very good job Jo :)
    May be u should try Cool Edit or Audacity to alter the tempo at the required places in the track to make it sound uniform.

    Hey Jo,
    Good work buddy..Keep it coming..
    I guess you must try and increase the treble for you voice a little and add some more reverb :-)
    I would like you to sing for one of my songs sometime..will let ya know when a song of mine shapes up..
    Cheers..
