I am extremely excited to be posting this song. This is the first time I have worked on an original composition. The song, Dheere Dheere was composed, written and mixed by Sunny . Sunny is a Sound Engineer who works with Sandeep Chowta . I got to know Sunny through Muziboo . He is amazingly gifted and I am so happy to have worked with him on this project. It took us about a month to complete this one since we were trying to fit our work schedules in between. But I feel it was well worth the wait. Hope you all enjoy this one.
I was watching Idol gives back last Wednesday. For those of you who are not familiar with this show, its a special episode on American Idol which is geared towards raising money for charities all around the world. Anyway, there were a lot of pop stars, actors, sports icons etc who participated in the show to help the cause. But one person stuck out among the crowd like a shining star with her genuine concern towards AIDS in Africa – none other than ANNIE LENNOX. Her performance left me spellbound and left me crying as it came from the bottom of her heart and her pain resonated with me. I wanted to share it with the rest of you as this is soulful music at its best. The song she sang is a cover of “Many Rivers to Cross” written by Jimmy Cliff in 1969.
Hats off to ANNIE LENNOX for a mind blowing performance!
Hindi does not come naturally to me. However that doesn’t stop me from trying Hindi songs Here is my attempt at my favorite song from Jodha Akbar. I heard this for the first time about a month back(thanks to my wife for introducing me to this one) and got totally obsessed with it. It took me a day to get the timing and diction right (to some degree). I really enjoyed performing this and hope the audience enjoys it as much.
I did this song a while back. I’ve been obsessed with it since I heard it for the first time. It is so unconventional and yet so catchy. The story behind the song is quite interesting. Mika was trying to get a record deal and all the recording companies wanted him to change his sound into a common pop mould. He wasnt pleased with this and expresses it quite clearly in this song. I feel this song has attitude both from a lyrical and musical perspective, which is probably why I like it so much.
Heres my humble attempt at covering this beauty!

Lyrics:
Do I attract you? Do I repulse you with my queasy smile? Am I too dirty? Am I too flirty? Do I like what you like?
I could be wholesome I could be loathsome I guess I’m a little bit shy Why don’t you like me? Why don’t you like me without making me try?
I try to be like Grace Kelly But all her looks were too sad So I try a little Freddie I’ve gone identity mad!
I could be brown I could be blue I could be violet sky I could be hurtful I could be purple I could be anything you like Gotta be green Gotta be mean Gotta be everything more Why don’t you like me? Why don’t you like me? Why don’t you walk out the door!
How can I help it How can I help it How can I help what you think? Hello my baby Hello my baby Putting my life on the brink Why don’t you like me Why don’t you like me Why don’t you like yourself? Should I bend over? Should I look older just to be put on your shelf?
I try to be like Grace Kelly But all her looks were too sad So I try a little Freddie I’ve gone identity mad!
I could be brown I could be blue I could be violet sky I could be hurtful I could be purple I could be anything you like Gotta be green Gotta be mean Gotta be everything more Why don’t you like me? Why don’t you like me? Walk out the door!
Say what you want to satisfy yourself But you only want what everybody else says you should want
I could be brown I could be blue I could be violet sky I could be hurtful I could be purple I could be anything you like Gotta be green Gotta be mean Gotta be everything more Why don’t you like me? Why don’t you like me? Walk out the door!
I could be brown I could be blue I could be violet sky I could be hurtful I could be purple I could be anything you like Gotta be green Gotta be mean Gotta be everything more Why don’t you like me? Why don’t you like me? Walk out the door!
