Comments on: A Vacuum Remains http://www.mohdrafi.com/newspapers/a-vacuum-remainsmagesmages.html It's all about Mohd Rafi Sun, 20 Jul 2008 01:30:06 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.4 by: Mahender http://www.mohdrafi.com/newspapers/a-vacuum-remainsmagesmages.html#comment-8630 Mon, 09 Jul 2007 18:58:02 +0000 http://www.mohdrafi.com/newspapers/a-vacuum-remainsmagesmages.html#comment-8630 Thanks for hosting such informative material about The GEM. I have grown listening to Mohammad Rafi all my childhood days. I still remember, in 1980, when I was about 8 years old, I saw my father in wet eyes..it was him who pulled me to Mohammad Rafi, and even today when I am in US, I have carried a luggage of CDs of Mohd Rafi Songs...ranging from Jagriti..Hum laaye hai toofan se kishti nikaal ke.....to...John Jaani Janardan.....I'm sure a big bunch of new heroes have lost their careers in Mohd Rafi's demise..his singing would have made a lot of difference. I can keep writing about Rafi without any end, but just wanted to insert that it is people like Laxmikant Pyarelal and Shankar Jaikishan who were really blessed to be associated with Rafi, as their combination with him produced immortal songs like...Tum mujhe yu bhula na paaoge. I wish for the generations to come Mohammad Rafi lives in the hearts of people across the world. Thanks for hosting such informative material about The GEM.

Everybody compares his/her favourite singer with rafi saab as because rafi saab was the final measurement of singing. I remember a time when sridevi was on top. I have seen and read there was hardly an enterview of any star that was complete without a line about this roop ki rani. so this is quite natural. Hights of lands are measured from the depth of sea-bottom. you are right Mr. unknown. Everybody compares his/her favourite singer

If we prepare an exhaustive list of Rafians in an alphabetical order, my name would be somewhere in 6002586255 (since it is “N”, to be followed by 12 alphabets). The irony is that 70 percent fans of other singers are Rafi lovers; his voice is that irresistible. We have seen many Kishore fans, who wrote in this forum, expressing their appreciation for Rafi. Those who can resist his voice – of course, one can find a few in some forums (what do you say Unknow1?) – have their “sanity malfunctioning”. May I request our administrator for adding more songs in the juke box? You are correct Kalyani.

There are innumerable fans outthere and if u look at the Hamara Forums only Rafi sabs site has the maximum visitors. Yes I fully agree we should get to listen to more songs, Kalyani Nair Sir,

The last sentence of my previous blog should be read as “thank you so much for all these”; also, line number 6 as “Numbers of articles along with the quality” and line number 11 as “Or, let me go to the extent of asking that”.

But I sense emptiness in the blog. It is a paradox. The website has become a kind of source book as well as referencer for any Rafi aficionado. Numbers of articles along the quality, content, and style have a substantial increase, whereas the comments and responses have a sizeable reduction. Should it be taken that visitors are less in number? Or that the new log-in system is scaring? Or, let me go to extent of asking that: is it that now there is any room for debating? Look at the site: the new juke box is something with which one can spend hours in bliss (although a new set of songs would be wonderful); photo album is providing spectacular shades of the life of a legend; videos are simultaneously providing treat to ears as well as eyes. Oh yes! Now, I got it, I mean the reason for the relatively less number of comments – all are enjoying the entertainment provided by our administrator that they hardly get time to write comments. Does it sound like an artificial confidence? Hope it does not. Well, I just wanted say a few words in praise of our administrator. Thank you so much all these!

But.....what does the title mean? Please! Rafi’s adaptation of voice from actor to actor is quite obvious. Here is a song video where he shows this skill on Shashi Kapoor who is playing double role. http://youtube.com/watch?v=8dG2F9bHa5M Nice article. But…..what does the title mean? Please!
