Here are my favourite songs of the year....the list is long...could have added more songs
Ajnabi Shehar - Jaan-e-mann
This song simply rocks......it transforms you to a fairy land....one of the best songs of all time...Gulzar, Anu and Sonu complement each other well.....
Aaj ki raat - Don
Most haunting track of the year....this song has a typical 80s disco feel to it....Sonu, Mahalaxmi and Alisha sang this song well..though entire credit should go to SEL for making me nostalgic with 80s soundtracks....also check out the intricacies in the video of this song....the spoiler of the film is cleverly woven in the songs lyrics as well as Isha/Shahrukh's body language....this is my most heard track of the year
Roobaroo - RDB
Simply love this track for the guitar interludes and Rahman's music....
Jaaneman - Aryan
This song did not get the attention it should have deserved...had this been in a Yashraj film it would have been aggressively promoted and would have been a chartbuster.....Sonu and Shreya are utterly sweet in this song....
Yeh hai meri kahani - Zinda
Best composed number of the year..check out the musical arrangements in the song...it is simply mindblowing....has a typical western soundtrack....
Ek pal ke liye - Ankahee
Another song which did not get the necessary credit....KK was at his best in this song....
Ya Ali- Gangster
Though lifted the song was very well sung by Zubin and ably supported by Pritam (composer)...Zubin is one of the top contenders for winning this year's major awards....
Chand Sifarish - Fanaa
What a way to end their duo career.....Jatin Lalit gave a lilting number (check the santoor interlude)...Shaan's vocal should atleast earn him a place in all award ceremonies this year....
Mitwa- KANK
No one expected SEL to come up with this number which had a typical Pakistani feel to it...moreover the range displayed by Shafaqat was awesome...he like Zubin is another top contender for male singer award.....
Title - KANK
Whoever thought that Alka is past her peak should listen to this track....still has the same ol' Alka golden touch to it.....Sonu too sung this song well...this was a stereotypical SEL number
Beedi - Omkara
one of the best item numbers of all times...can you imagine a lyricist like Gulzar giving 2 back to back excellent item numbers in a span of 1 year (Beedi and Kajra re)......Sunidhi should win the top female singer award hands down for this song.....
Tere Bin - Bas Ek pal
Atif continues from where he left last year (Wo Lamhe and Aadat)...he is one of the most talented singers in Bollywood today and if properly used can be the Sonu Nigam of the coming generation.....
Masti ki pathshala - RDB
what an energetic college number with some really cool lyrics.....song that heard the most in college festival last year.....
Pal pal - LRM
Shreya might end up giving stiff competition to Sunidhi (Beedi) for this sweet number....This song just seems to be an extension of Chann Chann (Munnabhai MBBS)...this song consolidates Shreya position as the Lata Mangeshkar of our generation (I can say that Sunidhi is the Asha Bhosale of today's generation)
Baawri Piya-Baabul
One of the best songs sung by Sonu...its a classic...since it was not well promoted the song might not feature in any awards.....Sonu has rarely sung a classical song but this song alongwith Behka Diye (Umrao Jaan) confirms that no genre is difficult for this singer...Sonu is simply the God when it comes to singing/versatility
Aa paas aa- Ankahee
Another superb track from Shreya....again since the film didn't do well this song went unnoticed..
Neele neele aasmaan - Holiday
Shreya rules again in this number...
Sau Dard - Jaan-e-mann
Another mindblowing slow emotional number from Sonu..
Tu hi meri shab hai- Gangster
great lounge number and one of the songs to feature in almost every remix album...KK as usual sang this song well...
Teri yaadon - Killer
This too went unnoticed but was an amazing number....
