Udit, Sanu and Abhijeet are much more popular than the 2000s lot because they appealed to everyone. The 2000s batch had one major drawback, most of the country did not listen to Westernised songs. They understood more traditional music and thus stuck to the 90s.
And regarding your song reference, I doubt anyone's even heard it.
@bold: They were trained singers. And Bollywood music did not have a compulsory requirement to have classical songs in their soundtracks. These singers grew up listening to Rafi sahab, Kishore Da, Lata ji, Asha ji....you think they didn't know classical?
And if Western influence means achieving the greatest, why haven't today's songs with their Hinglish lyrics and Westernised singing clicked with the masses?
by listening to rafi sahab one can not guarantee the same classical ability....and by the rafi was the one who change his voices to different song which later sonu did in his time unlike 90s popular singers ..and i doubt if udit narayan or kumar sanu or even abhijeet actually can sing madhu ban me radeka nache re or Sonu Nigam' toughest s classical songs, they dont have that TAYAARII, they were popular for simple flat singing songs which never required too much variations , ... there is one interview of abhijeet he told that he was struck in one classical harqat told by music director so he requested the music director to keep the note flat as many 90s songs ..... and regarding westrenize songs then likes of sonu , kk or even shaan to an extent sang traditional songs and westreinzed both the style shows how much greater they were of a singer than compare to monotonous singing of 90s
