Sabse Peeche Hum Khade by Silk Route

I had gotten this song from a friend. Was listening to it on my flight last week. This just didn’t seem to go out my head! Amazing song and melody. Wanted to share with all of you… Have fun!

Surprisingly, had never heard about this Indian band – Silk Route. Some detail on them

Silk Route was a popular Indian music band named after the Silk Road. It was popular in the 90′s in the Indian music scene but slowly faded away. The band comprises Mohit Chauhan on the lead vocals and Guitar, Kem Trivedi on the keyboards, and Kenny Puri on percussion and drums. The original line-up however had Mohit Chauhan on the lead vocals and Guitar, Kem Trivedi on the keyboards, and Atul Mittal on acoustic guitar, clarinet and backing vocals.It also included a few guest percussionists.

    Anand Math is based on Bankim Chandra Chatterjee’s novel. It is famous for the song Vande Matram. But I have always been haunted by how Prithviraj Kapoor (Satyananda) keeps chanting “Hare Murare”. This song – Jai Jagdish Hare – is just amazing and haunting… specially Geeta Dutt’s voice. Only she could sing this way and give this effect. There was another such song in Pyaasa (Aaj sajan mohe ang laga lo). But this one with music from Hemant Kumar (in my view, one of the most underestimated Music Composer) is just brilliant!

    Lyrics – probably by Bankim Chandra Chatterjee
