TWO HUNDRED songs so far that I learned, sang, recorded and posted on my YouTube channel.
When I started this back in January 2021, I was not sure how it was going to go.
In the pandemic lockdown, I was watching this movie Julie & Julia, which inspired me to decide to sing and post 300 distinct Bollywood classic songs. Songs that I used to listen to on the radio or TV as a kid. Some songs I knew mostly, many I only knew parts. Most of the songs I never ever sang in my life.
I started by using the Apple iPad headset for singing. You will see that in my older videos. After couple months of doing that, following an advice I was given, I decided to get a microphone and sing through that instead. It then started sounding better, and not to forget, it looks better too.
All songs are recorded in ONE take, and no pitch correction used. One mistake I make during recording be it audio or visual mistake, I have to stop and start all over again.
It is a very emotional moment for me today that I have reached 200 songs. 100 more to go.
Even though I am passionate about playing music and singing, unfortunately, my bad luck perhaps, but music always eluded me from becoming a profession or being successful. I know so many times I have failed wanting to do something with music, from attempting to form bands to attempting to produce good records.
In 2019 and 2020, I wrote, recorded and released 11 English songs. They are available ton youTube, Spotify etc.
Today's song, the 200th song is Jo Raah Chuni Tune sung by Kishore Kumar from the 1976 movie Tapasya directed by Anil Ganguly and produced by Tarachand Barjatya. Music composed by Ravindra Jain, and lyrics written by M.G. Hashmat.
The movie is one of the best in the industry, and Rakhee won the best actress Filmfare award that year.
I must watch the movie again, it has been forever.
