What is it that makes a song enjoyable ? It is not just one aspect of the song, rather one enjoys several things about it. It is the voice of the singer, as well as the music that appeals to the ears, it is also the lyrics. In fact, the contribution of lyrics in making a soul can never be overemphasised. I am always fond of saying that lyrics are the soul of songs and it the lyrics that makes songs come alive. That is why I give so much importance to the lyrics of the song.

In this blog, I have been discussing Sajjad Hussain’s compositions these days. I have covered nearly 40 % of all the songs that he composed in Hindi movies and finding the remaining songs is becoming a tall order as they are all rare songs, not easil available. So every day I wonder where my next Sajjad Hussain song will come from.

In my bid to discuss all the Sajjad Hussain songs, I have made considerable progress. I have so far discussed as many as 40 songs, which is a big figure, considering that Sajjad Hussain composed only about 100 songs in Hindi movies.

After posting four songs for the day, I suddenly realised that today is 16th november, Roshan’s death anniversary. My original plan was to discuss only Roshan songs and a total of five Roshan songs today. I can do that even now, but that would be an overkill. So I am going to discuss two Roshan songs today.

I have discussed as many as 37 songs composed by Sajjad Hussain in Hindi movies. Finding the remaining songs composed by him (he composed about 100 such songs) is proving to be a tall order, as these songs are rare songs, which are not easy to find.

Jaate ho to jaao ham bhi yahaan

I have mentioned in the past that I intend to discuss all Sajjad Hussain songs in this blog that I could locate. Out of about 100 Hindi movie songs that Sajjad Hussain composed in his career, I have already discussed 27 songs. Searching for the remainder of the songs is turning out to be rather more difficult than expected (or perhaps I should have expected that) because many of the songs are quite obscure (as are the movies that these songs belong to). Even the information pertaining to these songs is difficult to find.
