It is foolish to expect an industry that feeds on stereotype for breakfast, that chokes when it runs out of cliche cylinders, to treat playback singing, its critical entity, any different.
So when you want
zesty, feisty quality in your life, you have Sunidhi Chauhan.
faux sexy wailing, haazir hai Kunal Ganjawalla
the male, higher-higher-pitched version of Sunidhi Chauhan with added diamond-like quality that just cuts through... Krishna Kumar Menon (KK)
a star like quality that will put galaxies to shame, take Sonu Nigam
sincerity, energy, honesty, so what if RAW, please meet A R Rahman
to communicate pathos, sincerity, again so what if RAW, make way for Ilayaraja
saccharine sweet to the point of inducing diabetes, there is always Chitra
someone to traverse the spectrum from an infant to a girl all the way to a woman, welcome S. Janaki
someone to traverse the spectrum from an infant to a girl all the way to a woman, north of Vindhyas, welcome Asha Bhonsle
invoke Gods, mountains, call only Anuradha Paudwal
devotional, call Anuradha Paudwal and Gulshan Kumar
divine, Lata Mangeshkar
saucy, sassy, cheeky, chicken-tikka masala, croaky & froggy, irreverent, arrogant (so what if it makes you want donate truck loads of lozenges), don't do anything; just close your eyes, and pronto! Anu Malik
to revisit the all the good things of your childhood, say "Sadhna Sargam"
fun, frolic added to romantic numbers, go to Mahalaxmi Iyer
somebody, when you find none, think of Alka Yagnik
to touch a chord of the masses faster than the speed of light, send an SMS to Himesh Reshammiya
to insult your enemies, love guilt pleasures, R. P. Patnaik door nahin
to "hear" a smile, please call Udit Narayan
to test the speaker quality of your avante-garde music set up, particularly Bass, head straight to Amitabh Bachchan
to drink without getting drunk, pesh hai Hariharan
to be literally jolted of blues, slumber, so what if transient, go to Sukhwinder Singh
seriousness, sincerity, character go to Kavita Krishnamurthy nee Subramaniam
to learn Malayalam through Hindi, go down south to Yesudas.
to feel good about yourself, about everything around, C/O Rekha Bhardwaj & Vishal Bhardwaj
most of the qualities mentioned above, dial 9823156147/ 9842351706 to reach Shankar Mahadevan
because for all the above and everything else there is an
S P Balasubrahmanyam
(May he live longer than is destined to)
