Rafisaab Lives on......
by rafikabhakt on Aug 02, 2006 10:04 PM

MOHD RAFISAAB to me is the 'SUN OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM OF MUSIC.. he is like a most prolific teacher to those who pursue music as their career..people from all categories relate themselves to rafisaab's songs...rafisaab could sing like a soldier- 'kar chale ham fida jaan-o-tan sathiyo'..he could quickly turn into a sai baba bhakt & recite 'sainath tere hazaron naam' or 'shirdiwale sai baba'..he could metamorphose himself into a pandit & sing 'man tarpat hari darshan ko' & 'sukh ke sab sathi'..he could turn into an ardent lover & sing 'jo baat tujhme hain ,teri tasveer mein nahi' & 'jo wada kiya woh nibhana padega'...he could anytime become ur best friend & sing 'meri dosti mera pyar'...rafisaab
could change his singing style within few minutes & camouflage it into any style be it romance,ghazal, quawali,bhajans,thumri,classical,folk,comedy,sad,patriotic,etc..i was disappointed when i saw on a news channel that rafisaab's cementry was in terrible condition..does a person like rafisaab who has given life to indian music deserves such a behavior!!i hope the people concerned wake up and give rafisaab his due...in the end i think god took away the best 4 himself & left the rest for us...
