sufi rock, bulley shah, and sardaarjis

[thumb=H]rabbi-120407_4917539.JPG[/thumb]

A sardar in full regalia, strumming a six-string all over India. The artist: Rabbi Shergill, and the song “Bulla ki Jaanaa”, his rendition of the famous Kafi by 18th-century Sufi saint Bulla-Shah which for me, happens to be easy listening than azmat’s version. check it out urself:

rabbi shergill - Bulla Ki Jana

Its singers like these because of which our Pakistani artists/bands find it so easy to dominate the non-bollywood movie scene. No offense, but even Shahzada Faisal and Basit Subhani can do a better job than most of these Indians.

u wouldnt have said that if Sami rahman hadnt said what he said bout Junoon :D give credit where its due... its a good song !

Re: sufi rock, bulley shah, and sardaarjis

lovely rendition of the song..just a six-string and good vocals...
Spock -> did you actually listen to the song? I have heard the junoon version of the song as well..i have to admit that Junoon's version is a noise pollution

Re: sufi rock, bulley shah, and sardaarjis

Yeah, bitter I did, and I didnt like it. Without shredding guitars, bass, and all the instruments that add pace (a kickass video to top it all), its ordinary stuff. It depends on your taste, if you cant stand rock/distortions/feedback, then maybe yeah you'd like this sardarjee version better.

Re: sufi rock, bulley shah, and sardaarjis

It is a pleasent change that some sardar is not doing bhangra music and singing some quality poetry for a change.

I liked the song. Very good :k:

Re: sufi rock, bulley shah, and sardaarjis

Love the song

Re: sufi rock, bulley shah, and sardaarjis

Yea me too..loved the song & the poetry! It’s my new signature :hula:
Sardar ji’s voice quality is far better than Ali-hiding-behind-music-instuments-Azmat.

Re: sufi rock, bulley shah, and sardaarjis

Voice Quality :hehe: Its called vocals, and this sardarjee is hardly a good vocalist.

Its simple, any pop song in Pakistan is adored by Pakistanis, especially if its coming from India. Even the new noori song is better than this IMO.

^ :)

Re: sufi rock, bulley shah, and sardaarjis

haha! vocals are not a quality characteristic. Even you have vocals believe it or not. :slight_smile:
Give the credit where it is due…you can blindly kiss junoon’s arse on the side..I don’t mind :slight_smile:

Re: sufi rock, bulley shah, and sardaarjis

lol…aur yoon ik hi thread mein junoon aur spock ki wah wah hogai :hehe:

Its a nice song, very good rendition, soothing effects :k: make lyrics and music walk into listerner’s mind.

A good change from Robitussin prank takla :stuck_out_tongue:

Re: sufi rock, bulley shah, and sardaarjis

Like I said, this is nothing compared to what our Pakistani music industry comes out with (without getting their due credit), so you can continue kissing the sardarjee’s ass and his ‘quality of the voice’ :wink:

Sami, your link isnt working
