The melody king Manna proved that even classical songs can be made popular in films.
A line in his song says: " Sur Ke Bina Jeevan Suna."

I believe " Music world is Suna
Manna Ke Bina"

Om shanti ,shanti,shanti.

Manna dey has always been my favorite singer and I have had the opportunity of visiting him several times and chatting with him since he lived very close to my sister's house in Bangalore.The last time I met him was in June this year and he gave me a CD with his songs signed by him, a great treasure for me ! I know he was old and suffering a lot especially after he lost his wife ! I am in a way glad hat he is at last together with her ! His memories and songs are there for us to cherish ,,,,,May his soul rest in peace !

You are lucky to have talked with Manna many times. Anyhow, he lived a full life. His versatility in rendering songs ranging from Mehmood to Raj kapoor is unique.

He did, and he was a gem of a person, childlike in real life ! He praised all the singers and was a great fan of Kishore kumar and Rafi...

So lucky of you, Yes you mentioned it once before in another topic. I really feel that Indian music has lost one of its most talented of contributors. I pray for his soul to rest in peace.

He is a good singer especially classical one, and he has sang Madhushala which is brilliant, but from classic songs I do prefer, Rafi and Hemant Kumar.

Its the trait of music. Its aim is to spread waves of ecstasy in the listener's heart. Good music sends you in to a trance. That helps in fortifying your concentration.

No I dont think he is unlucky to live in the era of Rafi, Mukesh etc. Rather all these singers together added a unique quality to Indian film music.

Manna dey's speciality lies in the fact that he makes tough classical songs also look easy. " ek Chatura Naar " from padosan is one of such songs.
