Anyhow, autumn will show up when it will have to. Can't do anything but we can kill this boredom with some good music. It is possible, you people and i am gonna show you how.
Who is following coke studio season 10 this summer? We are and to be honest we are not liking it very much. Some compositions are amazing though but this year's season has overall failed to please us. But thank the Lord, coke studio has never been this bad and their music has always been wonderful except for this season. We refused to get disheartened by this year's music hence, we decided to revisit all the previous seasons and list down out top 10. It has been hard to be honest because there were many songs that we loved and finding the best among the best was pretty difficult. but we did it. For you guys only! So ladies and Gentlemen , here is our list:
Coke 10: Ishq Aap bhe Awalla - Chakwal Group and Meesha Shafi Season 5
The more you listen to it, the more you love it. Such an amazing fusion created by Rohail Hayatt, sung beautifully by the Chakwal Group and Meesha Shafi, this is one song that makes you fall with music. It's like you are listening to a tale with great music. The rawness that comes in with the voices adds to the magic already created by the song's lyrics .
Ishq Aap Bhe Awalla, Unde Kaam Bhe Awalla, Do hear it if you haven't already!
Coke 9 : Jal Pari- Atif Aslam Season 2
We all loved Jal Pari when it came out. Good music plus Atif's voice was one to die for. Remember how he became our instant crush? This composition takes you back to this hit song with a twist. The journey starts with Jal Pari and then mixes with Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's number one hit. Hear it for yourself to find out!
Coke 8 : Tum Naraz Hou- Sajjad Ali Season 7
Tum Naraaz Hou
Haan Meray Kitney Paas hou
Nazuk Nazuk Si
Payari Payari Si
Meray Jeenay Ki Aas Hou
Wah! Loved it instantly it was out on the first season. Such soft lyrics with such a mesmerizing voice. There is no way any girl can stay angry with a guy, if he sings this song to her provided he sounds good too. Best song of that season it was. Must hear!
Coke 7: Yar Daddi - Ali Zafar Season 2
Originally sung by Ustaad Juman , this song has been my favorite since i heard it for the first time. Its the lyrics that take you in another world plus Ali Zafar's voice is so pleasing and magical that you can't stop hearing it once you have started to. Beautiful Composition!
Coke 6 : Tajdar E Haram- Atif Aslam Season 8
Came out in Episode 1 of this season and blew us away. I like how beautifully coke studio recreated this qawali and Atif Aslam's voice suited so well. I remember i heard this song on a loop for a month or two. Such soulful lyrics and music.
Coke 5 : Nindiya Re- Kaavish Season 2
This was the first time that i heard Kaavish and loved them immediately. Beautifully written song, this had to be a super hit composition.
Coke 4 : Sammi Meri Waar- Umair Jaswal & Quratulain Baloch Season 8
So when this song came out, it became hot favourite for my morning walks. What energy this song has, man. Love the amazing twists and turns in the composition and QB is so brilliant as always. Wasn't an Umair Jaswal fan before but this song made me like him very much. If you are low or down, this song can totally change your mood. Tried and tested!
Coke 3 : Ni Oothaan Waale- Attaullah Khan Esakhelvi Season 4
Attaullah is such a huge legend, no words to describe the mark he has left on Pakistani music. His voice hits you. He has mastered the art so well. This song takes you back to his classic folk. Beautifully recomposed, this folk song is our number 3. Heart it like a story and you will love it more.
Coke 2 : Sab Maya Hai : Attaulah Esakhelvi & Sanwal Esakhelvi Season 10
Probably, the only song that touched my heart from this season, was this one. Loved this son/ father duet. Beautiful lyrics! Heard Sanwal sing for the first time and i have to say he is very well trained by his father. His voice is so soul touching, fresh and young and blends in so well with his father's magnificant voice. Love such a talent and coke studio did justice to this young guy by taking him on their season.
Coke 1 : Daastan-e- Ishq- Ali Zafar Season 2
Written partly by Ali Zafar and some verses taken from Shah Hussan and Bulleh Shah, this song takes you into a magical world. Quick Fact: The song we heard on the season wasn't live as other coke studio songs are. The reason was Ali Zafar couldn't control his emotions while recording it live hence the song we heard was a practiced version. Such strong are the lyrics. Love it. My all time favorite.
Disclaimer: There are many other songs that are my favorite that are not in the list. As i said before, picking up best from the best is the hardest thing to do. Please share your favorites too. We would love to hear from you guys. Love :)
