It’s always a pleasure to talk to an old friend. Their voice and personality help you remember the first time you met them and everything that has happened since then. That’s what happens when you hear a familiar sound. takes you back to a different eraa different day. Singer Lucky Ali is trying to achieve the same with his new song ‘Tu Jaane Hai Kahaan’, which has been released under the label Tips Music. It is moving, simple and at the singer’s level.
Although he chooses to play random cafes and concerts these days, Ali still has influence in the industry, and that’s pretty clear when you hear the names behind the project. The super team includes Mike McCleary, a composer and composer from New Zealand, composer Suraj Gulvady and lyricist Kausar Munir. What these four individuals have achieved is not to win them any Grammys or BRIT Awards; The song is definitely quite relaxing in that linear way.
An easy-to-digest melody consisting of rhythm and lead guitar begins, while percussion joins in as soon as Lucky Ali starts singing. The strange minor chord along with Ali’s ability to make a common word sound so meaningful contributes greatly to the track. The hook is fun and the lyrics are easy to follow. So the song definitely promotes the old saying that “simple is better”; its structure and vision seem to work in its favor.
Personally, I’d like to see Ali play around with his voice and style a bit. Except for the modern elements, the song’s lyrics and treatment make it fairly indistinguishable from a million other songs found on Spotify. The super team works well together, but let’s just say they never set themselves a very difficult task. The elements that make this track accessible also deprive it of any chance to stand out.
All in all, it’s great to see Lucky Ali back, especially in a time when singers are carving out a space for themselves outside of playback singing. Ali was part of the indie music movement. of the 90s and 2000s in which independent artists and bands took over the industry. The whole thing has come a long way since then, and having someone like him, from the old guard, firing on all cylinders, could be fantastic for music, its creators and its consumers.
