Vital Signs

The pop scene in Pakistan got going much before it hit the shores of India and goes back even before Junoon was formed, in fact, Salman Ahmed who formed Junoon came from a band that was among on the best bands of its time. That these guys knew their music is still evident today with Salman Ahmed having formed one of the most popular south Asian band till date and Ruhail Hyatt producing the ever mesmerising Coke Studio currently.
Here are a few songs which Vital Signs came out with then and which are still pleasing to listen to now also.

Ajnabi


Woh Kaun Thi


Gore Rang Ka Zamana


Sanwali Saloni Si Mehboba


Mera Dil Nahi Available


Naraz


Yaarian


Na Tu Aayegi

Jagjit Singh...May you Rest in Peace.

Today we lost another legend, a man whose voice brought life to words. A voice which could be identified amongst the rest. The world of Ghazal has lost one of its pillars and we have lost one of the best singers in India with the passing away of Jagjit Singh. In remembrance of the legendary talent, here are just a few of the songs which he entertained us with.


Har Taraf Har Jagah


Tujhse Milne Ki


Hazaaron khwaishen Aisi


Main Na Hindu Na Musalman


Allah Janta Hai


Dhoop Mein Niklo


Ghum Ka Khazana


Tumko Dekha Toh Yeh Khayal Aaya


Tum Itna Jo


Honton Se


Hoshwalon Ko


Koi Faryad


Kabir ke DOHE


Woh Kaghaz Ki Kashti
