Ramta Jogi

Movie: Taal

Original Singer/s: Sukhwinder Singh & Alka Yagnik

AMAZING, SUPERB, SIMPLY MAGICAL!!!

Although Raja is versatile and well versed in many different styles/genres of singing, I do love to hear him belt out Sukhwinder Singh songs because he fulfils them soooo well.  He is the only artist that I can think of who can emulate the beauty of Sukhwinder's voice, because Raja's voice is also very strong, rich and powerful.  I love the intro to this song where Raja sings in a 'tipsy' sounding voice, as if he is drunk!  It sounds brilliant.

For those of you who have followed Raja's career graph from Saregamapa 2007 onwards, you will know that Raja has sang this song before and even then, he rocked the stage and impressed the judges too!!!  He has added new variations to this performance though, so that his fans/viewers don't get bored.  Another amazing point in this song, which I think sounds beautiful to the ears, is at the end, when he improvises an amazing adlib approximately 3:04 into the song.  I love it!!!  Well done Raja - Simply Superb!!!

Yaaron Sun Lo Zara

Movie: Rangeela

Original Singer/s: Udit Narayan & Chitra

In contrast to the fantastic 'Ramta Jogi' that Raja had performed earlier, I think that this song wasn't as good.  I think that is was a wrong song choice for him.  It didn't suit his voice as great as another song could have, but, it doesn't matter because we commend his hard work and effort!!!

 I LOVE Raja's facial expressions though.  He is toooo funny!!!

>>> Everyone please keep voting for Raja and Jassi!!! <<<
