KK was first heard when he sang these lines.
' You've got a good thing going
Hero honda
Aapka shaandar hamsafar
Hero honda.'
about a zillion years ago when he was still a student.
The high notes were stirring and unusually uplifting.
many jingles and songs later KK remains a musical humsafar for all those who recognise his unique gift.
So why hasn't he got a place in the sun yet?
He definitely deserves to be up there with SRK and others of his ilk. Well, I suppose it's upto producers, music directors and stars to decide who sings certain songs bu I've come across so many songs that I feel would have sounded better if KK had sung them.especially songs from salaam namaste and kaal.
But that does not take away from his work which is so classy.
THE VERY BEST songs are:
Tere sang ek simple si coffee from Zameen
Le chale from My Brother Nikhil
Aashaaein from Iqbal
Tu aashiqui hai from Jhankaar Beats
Door se paas from Musafir
Chale jaise havaaein from Main Hoon Na
I am Neal from Neal'n'Nikki
Dus bahaane from Dus
Tu aashiqui hai from Jhankaar Beats
Dil Samundar from Garam masala
And other than film songs:
Pal
Dil se mat khel
Aap ki dua
Yaaron
All jingles including the Dabur one that goes.jeet le yeh zameen.jeet le aasman
and of course.YEH DIL MAANGE MORE!
