A very adorable sweetness, that is what her voice always conveys. Be it a song of joy or verses of pensive sadness, it is the amiable pleasantness of the voice that appeals the most. Just earlier in the day, Bakhshish Singh ji and I were conversing about this anniversary today. One of his comments sounded very charming. He said, no matter what is the tone of the song, as you listen to it, you can feel a smile behind the sound. May it be a cheerless song of sadness, even then the voice sounds as if there is a sweet smile behind it. That is Suraiya’s voice for you.
Remembering this sweet and sad sound and the singer behind it, on the anniversary of her passing away today (31st January).
