Since, Amey cant sing in two different scales at one time what he sings will sound different to the original. Rehman is famous for overlapping tracks---thts his trademark---thts why they say singing Rehman songs is no joke.
And Amey also had to deepen his voice for the song---maybe it's the change in voice that your ears couldnt adapt to.
He certainly wasnt off-key----no offence, but do you even know what off-key is? It's when you sing OUT OF TUNE and your singing ntoes become flatter....Amey's too well trained to ever go flat.As for Amey 'shouting' in the high notes then do you even know how high rang de basanti goes---even females find it hard to sing--one of the biggest rules when singing 'high notes' is to keep your volume up so that the lyrics are clear.
My dear, off key means plain and simple off key.. you are right.. out of tune.. and the best trained singer can go off key..and I don't think it was due to overlapping tracks or anything like that.. sorry, no offence ..
