Shilpa: I started with longer notes to show the longing and the distance between them...so ingenious and true. She had depth and textures in her voice and the emotions as well.

Ali Hamza:"Khuda ka Wastaa hai. Bas Karde, concert nahi ho raha" hahahaha

BTS(s) are too short. Please come up with longer BTS to let us have a deep insight of the song. They should be at least 5 minutes BTS, covering all the people involved in the song.

Shilpa is living my dream!
I have always wished to perform in Coke Studio Pakistan, although I am from India.

Noori have been very consistent and creative with their tracks this season and it's no different with this composition. This one is apparently a family treasure passed on from their forefathers and Noori chose just the right platform to showcase this in a beautiful way.
The track has 'mitti-di-khushboo' written all over it with the rustic music & Punjabi lyrics. Hamza naturally has a beautiful vocal texture and has a great expertise playing with the lower octaves which he displays here yet again and it goes very well with the earthy mood and arrangement. It sets the stage beautifully for Shilpa to follow. Shilpa turned out to be the ideal choice for this composition. Her voice is very soulful and soothing. While being extremely sound technically, she doesn't sound loud or extravagant, which this composition demanded and she seemed to have gelled with the music amazingly! The antara where she goes solo is brilliantly sung. She begins with the alaap on the lower scale hitting all notes perfectly. And suddenly with literally no pause, she shifts onto the next octave with ease and command. Overall a very crisp and flawless performance from her, marking her entry into Coke Studio in bold letters. She also seemed to enjoy the performance getting along with Noori and the band, given that this was her first appearance on this platform. And finally with Ali Noor singing, it feels like Noori of the older days! And thanks to them for that! Ali Noor has a great ability to sound rockish with his sky high notes and yet vary his notes like any classical vocalist. Loved the part (at 9.00) when the music goes mute with just the acoustic guitar and Ali Noor's vocals. In the end, the Rao-Noor duo do an interesting jugal bandi of sorts with Noor continuing his rock part, while Shilpa enters displaying her classical prowess singing some beautiful harkats.
The arrangement of this track has everything one can ask for! It begins with a proper folk arrangement with instruments like the banjo, dholak and the matka (pot). The intial melody on the banjo goes with the mood of the song very well as one feels teleported to a typical rural household. Hamza's vocals takes this feel forward. Then comes the beautiful introduction of 'Sagar Veena' by Noor Zehra (mother of the Noori brothers) and one can't help but just close eyes and appreciate the masterly artwork which adds a beautiful dimension to this already rich arrangement. Ali Noor also gets a guitar solo which is executed very well and precedes Shilpa's verse. Strings section kick in with Shilpa's vocals playing a parallel melody which complements her vocals. The Strings become quite prominent from here till the end giving an awesome structure to the composition especially when the track enters its crescendo. The melody is primarily on the C-major scale, but at places especially in the chorus does slip over to the sharper 'Ma' note giving it a beautiful twist!
Overall a track that deserves multiple hearings for one shot at this won't be enough to understand all the layers and nuances!
