LIVEing Sonu

There are few moments of your life you never thought would be the most exciting one. I have heard most of Sonu Nigaam's songs on my music phone. They always struck a chord in my heart, every song triggers different emotions in your mind. For normal listners like me, we always visualises the video in which Shah Rukh or Salman romances with heroine. Later the imagination replaces Shah Rukh by yourself. (For some people, heroine may also get replaced!!) But we never think of the real voice who created the melody. Ok, we are quite deviating from the topic. I am not here to represent singer fraternity and injustice about their creditabilities kind of stuff. When I got to know that I would attend sonu's live concert, I was excited. But one can not experience that enthusiasm without previously attending something like that. Being novice, I didn't get the goose bumps, which I surely would get if now I get the chance to attend one.
One thing that is common among great people or rather performers is that they keep the audience awaiting. Being late due to traffic shoukd not happen with every performer. May be they have certain planning to psychologically manipulate the audience by hanging them desperately to wait for the performance. But after a long wait when he entered on stage, waiting period felt like seconds. Being a music lover, i tell you when you listen to your favourite singer live, it is litterally uncomparable with the recorded songs. I wrote so much of generalised statements. Let us be Sonu specific. even though it was my first concert, I am sure no one could inetract with audience so easily as he did. He entered on thestage with such a confidence that he knew he will rule the stage. He involved the audience in every song. I will keep taking about his non singing things, because commenting on his singing will surely insult him and I am big sinner already.
His versatility whether it be the song selection or genre is fantaastic. He modulates voice so easily that even high configured sound systems will sweat. At one point, he sang an english song immediately followed by opera song. At the moment I thought all we could do is to clap helplessly. the divinity of his voice gives us the traquility of mind even in the crowdy mob. Before sonu came, we heard the songs from another singer, we danced and enjoyed the songs. But when sonu started singing, we were busy flooding our ears with the melody.
Long LIVE Sonu Nigaam!!!
