Mohammad Rafi or Kishore Kumar? - Page 2

Its an insult to Rafi saab to be compared to the overrated Kishore Kumar.

Why berate/belittle one legend to glorify another?

No idea,

Don't know.

Can't compare.

Unko compare karne ki Himmat hi nahi. Both were pioneers for Bollywood music. If you talk about range and grasp on classical - Rafi Saab was better. If you talk about getting different texture into songs, Kishore ji was better. What Rafi could sing , Kishore couldn't. What Kishore could sing Rafi couldn't. Yodelling was brought to Bollywood by Kishore ji. Man tarpat and o dyniya ke rakhwale was sung by Rafi ji. Pal pal dil ke pas is my favourite song till date. Whenever it plays I close my eyes. It was sung by Kishore ji. Ek Chatur naar is the most playful song I know till date even after 50 yrs. it was sung by Kishore Kumar. So really for me - just just just can't.

Voted for Kishore ji thought. Can't see him losing

no comparisons for me...both r legends...let's celebrate music...

It's been 50 odd years. We still don't have singers like them. 👏

This was a fantastic read... putting in perspective the tough competition between 50s, 60s and 70s filmi singers.

I am a huge... huge fan of the music from this era.. I wish I was there.. among these great singers, musicians and composers.

this article states why and how most of these composers prefer, liked and considered Rafi above and better than the others. They all had a soft spot for him regardless of their personal differences.

Great read..

Rafi😛

I like them both. But if you are going to compare who has better range Rafi for sure.

Very hard to pick.. both are legendary. 😃
