One of the most popular YouTube channels in India and also the fastest growing in the country, Sanam looks to be in no mood of slowing down. The band regularly keeps dishing out awesome music, accompanied by some superb music videos. More than anything else, Sanam excels in creating reprised versions of yesteryear songs, and here’s a look at some of the finest ones among them.
Mere Mehboob Qayamat Hogi
Sanam has given this Kishore Kumar song an amazing bass line, and added some really great drum beats as well. And the voice of Sanam Puri is brilliant as ever while rendering the poignant lyrics.
Lag Jaa Gale
This recording of Sanam’s can be looked at as the absolute zenith of their collective musical abilities. It has managed to capture the haunting pleasantness of the Lata Mangeshkar number, while also adding a lot of the band’s originality.
Hai Apna Dil To Awara
Sanam’s ability to identify the essence of the song and setting their music in accordance to that is most evident in Hai Apna Dil To Awara. The band has also used an accordion in the musical arrangement of this one.
Ae Kash Ke Hum
Kumar Sanu’s original song is an overly endearing love song which still invokes nostalgia into those who hear it. Sanam’s rendition of Ae Kash Ke Hum comes incredibly close to creating the same magic.
Pehla Nasha
Pehla Nasha can easily be declared as one of the most romantic songs from Bollywood. Sanam’s version of this song acts as an excellent ode to the original. It features a cheery musical arrangement that suits the song well.
Kuch Na Kaho
This evergreen RD Burman song was covered by Sanam a few years back, and it features the vocals of none other than Shirley Setia. Both Shirley and Sanam Puri splendidly manage to recreate the spirit of the original track.
With more than 2 million YouTube subscribers already, the band Sanam is growing in popularity at a very fast pace. And all this, based solely on their excellent music.
