Sonu Nigam proves himself again... gosh this one was awesome... considering the fact he is singing alone compared to the original where in 3-4 different singers are singing in parts... Look at the rhythm he maintains throughout the song... simply comendable
Well said, Sir!! A very true observation. Most of the so called "singers" from the west couldn't carry more than one meter in the same song. Forget about the vocal range. They couldn't hold a candle to any one of the Indian singers. And Sonu is still young. I am not even considering the more mature singers from the past & present. Le Viva, Sonu!!
The best thing about this guy is that he can imitate any singer around, almost !. See his video with johnny lever, you will go MAD! . Talent=Sonu nigam.
I think it was a nice effort from Sonu. Truth is that Sting is legend, Cheb Mami is legend and Sonu is legend as well. So please don't compare them. He just tried to do something new. Obviously he can't get 100% of Sting and Cheb Mami but still appreciated. Keep up Sonu. You are the king. Love Sting, Cheb Mami and you all.
Both SOnu & Matthew Gordan Sumner are different singers and both have done justice to this song. I cant put one over another. Cheb Mami was super too with his Arabic.
Don't know where to call on this one. Sonu is so well established as an icon within the Hindi Playback genre that perhaps he feels the need to experiment and seek challenges elsewhere. This performance somehow does not add up. I have heard Manna Dey sing Bing Crosby's version of ' Oh Danny Boy' and reveled at the sheer versatility of his voice.. This one isn't one of those performances. Sonu himself keeps a very high standard.. an hence as fans we expect better things off him... fingers crossed!
I love sonu, and never missed any of his concerts. I will say, it was definitely a good attempt by Sonu. But there is something that can never be copied from Cheb Mami, and that is his accent. I have had shawarma in every region of the world made by arabs, but none of them got even close to the original taste of shawarma as in Lebanon. Thats all I am saying. But it was an excellent attempt by Sonu, but the biggest thing missing is the Arabic accent!!!
he is a grea singer and probably the most talented indian singer at present time... but he sucks at this song.... he dint rather i should say couldnt give the intro properly... even in some part of the song... he was making sargam of his own... the man should stay in his own genre .... he is best in that field
He's making a fool of himself. He is such a good singer and should stick to his own songs. Why does he have to sing someone else's song. Please see the live performance of the original and then listen to what Sonu Nigham did. go to ruclips.net/video/Ez5M1e6mD9A/видео.html
Sting is Sting, and Sonu is Sonu. Sting is legend, and Sonu Nigam cannot even sing the Arabic singer's line very well. Sonu Nigam is a good singer, but he is the best in India. Like Kumar Sanu can never be Kishore Kumar; Sonu Nigam cannot be better than Sting. Sorry!!!
yuck - i think the guy is great at his hindi songs and he's totally hot, but he killed this song - desert rose with an indian accent is terrible!! at some points it's tolerable but mostly terrible - lemme go see another song so he can redeem himself

Every time I see him singing, I like him more :) !! Just the BEST SINGER, a true Rockstar he is
@djhimmu man Sonu Nigam is just unbeatable, indomitable singer.........He himself is a history
This song is too easy for him. Sonu Nigam is just way too good.
Both SOnu & Matthew Gordan Sumner are different singers and both have done justice to this song. I cant put one over another. Cheb Mami was super too with his Arabic.

he is a grea singer and probably the most talented indian singer at present time... but he sucks at this song.... he dint rather i should say couldnt give the intro properly...
even in some part of the song... he was making sargam of his own...
the man should stay in his own genre .... he is best in that field
un fucking believable
ya he does
sonu v/s sting ,,i donno but he wasnt not evn close to cheb mami .....
Like trying to eat a hamburger with roghan josh.
not bad, but cheb mami is the best one
@salimudassir
You had to learn the language of those people who are nothing.
Why the hell is Sonu singing songs of people that are 1000 levels lower than himself. He could've rather sing Kal ho na ho, or Saathiya.
...ha ha ha ha ha.....
He's making a fool of himself. He is such a good singer and should stick to his own songs. Why does he have to sing someone else's song.
Please see the live performance of the original and then listen to what Sonu Nigham did. go to ruclips.net/video/Ez5M1e6mD9A/видео.html
can u sing better than him or do u know anything about singing and music?
Sting is Sting, and Sonu is Sonu. Sting is legend, and Sonu Nigam cannot even sing the Arabic singer's line very well. Sonu Nigam is a good singer, but he is the best in India. Like Kumar Sanu can never be Kishore Kumar; Sonu Nigam cannot be better than Sting. Sorry!!!
ok so sting can be sonu? lol
yuck - i think the guy is great at his hindi songs and he's totally hot, but he killed this song - desert rose with an indian accent is terrible!! at some points it's tolerable but mostly terrible - lemme go see another song so he can redeem himself
