Sailendra Singh tuning his guitar before a GIG
Music as said is the combination of rhythms and tones, but what makes it stand out is the feeling that it leaves behind in the minds and souls of listeners. Having said that the Nepali music industry has gone through different stages, from the light folk classical music to hard rock to peppy disco to instrumental. Everything is happening here and in this chaos only few have survived to testify the limitation, fighting against all odds from English numbers to strong spicy Indian numbers. The transcending of the preferences and choices of people has been very dynamic in acceptance of the different genre of music and songs that has been playing around. What more can you choose from then what is available, when everything is here?
From the Kolavery Di to the last thunderstorm of Jo Low, it’s all about having a choice. In this reverberation of sound tantrum few artists have come up with the fusion music of retro hard style soothing music. With words that melt in your mind and music so smooth as the scotch. You are just left behind with the after effects of what’s called the musical magic. Yes, I’m talking about a single composition that makes you feel listening to a song again and again. A song or a composition that is completely different and original from anything and it creates that magic no matter what you cannot get it out of your mind. It simply understand you and relates you coz it’s not fake or it has nothing to hide.
Like such I have found a song, Badliyo (Rock Version)-http://www.reverbnation.com/play_now/song_12462198” by Sailendra Singh one of the very creative and aspiring artist who has been moving successful in his musical career. To cut short, he is also affiliated with the famous rock group of Nepal Abahaya and the Steam Injuns.

Sailendra says, “The music and composition of this song is an aspect of what he felt, the soul of any music is to make its audience feel and realized the theme, I believe we did justice to the song and it’s what can be felt.”
Trying something very new and retro in a world confused of music is not an easy task, it takes guts and you surely should know what you are doing and perhaps the artist knows what he has done. The rhythm is soothing, highly retro and is brilliant. The lyric is something that melts in and the Voice is as raw as the rusted iron. What more can you ask for than to say yes I want to listen to it one more time.
Song interpretation, “I will survive though I have changed but I will live with the memories of past. It drains me but I will survive with what I have……….. I loved you and still I do coz I loved you for sure and I may doubt myself but I never doubted your LOVE . I’m waiting and missing you………………”
