Rakesh and Sreeram

Just watched today's episode. Rakesh sang very well.

Audience can't relate to a o re piya just because its difficult? :S

i sreeram is more versatile than rakesh. if you listen to rakesh's previous performances, they are mostly all the same type of songs (slow love songs). I think, in order to become the indian idol, you need to be more versatile and sing and experiment with different types of songs. both shivam and sreeram are doing that.

This is so interesting that people can't connect to Sreeram's singing...Lord have mercy!!!!! THis is the biggest joke of the century I have heard today...But again they are entitled to their opinion...

I am learning so much today about music and singing from some who are supporters of jerry mouse, curly hair, nasal (non) singer who finds "No Feel" in sreeram's singing.....

First let me make it very clear that I am just a listener and do not have ane knowledge of music whatsoever. I would like to highlight something just as a listener. To me Sreeram was missing the plaotnic feel the song O re Piya has. His singing was good but he missed the feel of the song. As far as Rakesh is concerned he was singing the song sung by Vinod Rathod who has very strong voice and a very strong base. As Rakesh does not have that strong voice, hence to me he could not justify the beauty of the song, specially in portion "Meri manzil hai tu" that is the most beautiful portion of the song. One thing I still dont understand why is that Rakesh never given a song which is not of his genre? Everybody tried something different some failed like Bhoomi, Tia and Swaroop some succeeded as Sreeram and Shivam was a mixed bag why is Rakesh an exception and no one has pointed that out, I mean among the judges. If in fact last time Sunidhi commented that about Swaroop why this exception for Rakesh?
