Yodeling

The form of singing with some yoo hoo type stretch on some words, requires a special ability.

Kishore Kumar had it in him, and therefore came up with unusual sounds that added magic to some of these songs-

Nakhrewali, dekhne mein dekh lo yeh kaisi bholi bhali..from New Delhi that has a line or two of yodeling after each stanza.

Tum Bin Jaoon Kahan..the Kishore Kumar version...Pyar Ka Mausam was the film.

Paanch rupiah, barah anaaha, marega bhaiyya, nanananaha.. from Chalti ka naam gaadi

Chala jaata hoon, kisiki dhun mein...fiilmed on Rajesh Khanna. fantastic road song.


Zindagi ek safar hai suhana..odlari odlari ohu..another fun song, from Andaz with the Khanna and Hema Malini on a bike. The Asha Bhosle version is not that good.

Q I have is - Does Adele Yodel?

Rajendra said...

Good question. I have no answer, since I don't listen to Adele.

Are you being an Adel Tattoo? Not to be confused with tattoos on Adele.

Rajendra said...

ha, ha, ha, don't know which would be more painful.
