@@neobeinghuman you're tone deaf. But lemme make it simple so that you're law intellect can understand. 1. This song is sung on the western major scale of D. Both hallelujah and Ode to a sunny don't have any notes that are outside the major scale, which is surprising cause there are no 'blue notes' in the instrumental section despite it being a bleusey song, by a band named blackstrat blues. 2. The Indian scales do not follow the western major scale, they have notes that are "outside the confines of the major scale" and that dissonance is the notes she's singing. With that being said, she is on key, but some parts especially when she first starts does sound off with the chord changes because, she's not singing the notes in the major scale. But that dissonance is what gives the song it's quality. I'm not here dissing this wonderful peice, I'm just making an observation as a music lover, musician and producer.
Through my toughest days, last phase of my PhD, I rediscovered Leonard Cohen and kept on listening to his poetries and found solace. I think he saved my life. I believe Cohen is immortalised by Karsh, Shilpa's Desh and Warren's ode to a sunny day... I think i listened to this version when i was a undergrad student... I aged, the song didn't and never will.
I love many other versions of Hallelujah composed by Leonard Cohen, to me the best one is sung by Rufus Wainwright. This composition is just another interpretation of the song. Warren's beautiful guitar and Prasanna ji's soulful bansuri took it to a different level, love this rendition.
3:02 This is it! If you came here for this, check out the real deal Ode to a Sunny Day. This 2.5 minutes solo is the foreplay to that 10 minutes eargasm.
well done! Karsh Shilpa and Co. Maintains the emotion of the original. Those being "harsh on karsh" may stay listening to the original. Art is about freedom.
love how the flute just rides into the acoustic guitar sounds in the beginning. The vocals are just perfect. Guitar solo's got much soul n control... too good. And to all those who think Shilpa Rao's voice is off when she enters, you must be TONE DEAF. Haven't u heard of blue note or that brown note? GREAT FUSION work. REFRESHING !
Wow!! warren mendoza is the most amazing guitarist in india! Listened to him around 10 years back!! and still smitten by his music!! nice work shilpa too :)
souvik bhattacharya it's actually Karsh Kale's song. Warren is a part of the Karsh Kale Collective. They have given him due credits, but since it's Karsh Kale's song, no other artist can get the title credit.
incredible! why can't we have more brilliant music like this instead of all the wrongly popular ones. cheers to projects like this and bands like Parvaaz, A mutual question and PCRC and many other bands to composing sensible music despite the odds.
Epic! One of the best versions of this song around... seamless travel between two songs, never seemed two different ... and Shilpas Jhoola is abs fine, its just that we are so used to traditional 135 harmonies that it might throw you off when coming from hallelujah to Jhoolah , but its abs fine and that's why its good composition :-).. this episode is so good to hear after the utterly let down one from EL. ... .
whoah!! what fusion man..this is just epic..shilpa rao perfectly singing one of my fav songs from umrao jaan...karsh's great vocals and awesome piano sounds from his nord...terrific guitar solo by warren..awesome chorus..these guys have nailed music...hats off!!
Brilliant. Seriously. Its taken me a few times to listen to this and I can now appreciate the complexities and layers of this song. So proud of you Karsh.
I call myself a novice. All I know is when i like music, I like it. And this, I really like. :) Thank you Karsh Kale. For everyone who is criticizing their beautiful attempt and success, please dont be so negative. Music is the only thing that binds us so refrain from drawing your straight lines across such beautiful creations, please respect art in whatever form it is. :)
Everything was good and all but then comes Warren with he's guitar solo and goes to a whole different realm that's when you realize he is class apart... With all due respect this version is good but Ode to a Sunny Day is a masterpiece
The world has enough K.D, Jeff and Rufus covers and after a while one gets jaded. But tailoring a set of words to another brilliant instrumental ( Ode to...) and weaving an absolutely beautiful melody overlaid with a subtle hint of the old pentatonics, now that is music. To all who wish this was a derivative cover of the others, better an original blunder than a borrowed fix. ( Not implied in any way that this cover was a blunder)
Not all covers work. And this is one of them. Period. Its a song that has always left its listeners with goosebumps. This one didn't. Its.... just not the version I would find myself listening to with tears in my heart.
+GirlOfFire01 you will not understand the beauty of this as soon as you said guitar was loud. That Guitar solo is enough for Musicians to be in happy tears no words or vocals are important. But otherwise I found the song not so great so no complains on the song issues.
+Navneet Kash Please - I dont need someone to tell me what I find beautiful or not. I am quite aware of my preferences. And I personally dont find this rendition 'great' enough to bring me to tears.

Best Guitar Solo ever played on Indian MTV :P
She's just gone into a different raaga and comes back. She's not off. She's friggin pitch perfect.
Diffrent scales. But it sounds off because she's not singing the same notes as the western major scale. So it is off key.
Definitely sounds off and kinda ruins the beauty of hallelujah
@@samuelstephen3416 bollocks.. she is pitch perfect

This guitar solo is something which hasn't been topped by anything made in India yet
The desh raga she sang in this masterpiece is a whole different level ❤️
Hands down , one of the greatest composition of the whole Coke Studio - India and Pakistan. Karsh Kale & Warren Mandonsa!
The guitar solo just gave me goose bumps. Even after a billion times of hearing this guy play.
tears and goosebumps again every time I listen...heavenly feeling
This version actually grows on you
I didn't like it much when I first listened to it
But somehow it feels good.
Give the goddamn credit to Warren

Watched this when it came out. Thought it would hit a million + views... . Such a beautiful rendition of the song !
The actual song's name is "Ode to a Sunny Day"... by Warren Mendonsa (the guy who was playing the guitar solo)... :)
Warren.... India has some great guitarists .These guys need more recognition
I love many other versions of Hallelujah composed by Leonard Cohen, to me the best one is sung by Rufus Wainwright. This composition is just another interpretation of the song. Warren's beautiful guitar and Prasanna ji's soulful bansuri took it to a different level, love this rendition.
Damnnn 8 years already!!
I still remembering listening to this like a child on MTV at Saturday 7pm! Those Days :')
adored really.....at first I did not feel any emotion but today it IS different. It IS Good to love loving 😄
Even though our brain interprets it as off key Its musically correct. She is a musical genius.
Karsh Kale's voice is sublime. Also the brilliant ode to a sunny day...Warren is the man.
Warren the TRex of a Guitarist. .. . Love You Brother.... Keep Rocking....
3:02 This is it!
If you came here for this, check out the real deal Ode to a Sunny Day. This 2.5 minutes solo is the foreplay to that 10 minutes eargasm.
Absolutely
6.15 is what gave me the feeling of Indian..
karsh kale is a genius, this arrangement works incredibly well..
This arrangement is by Warren Mendosa- Ode to a sunny day 🙂
well done! Karsh Shilpa and Co. Maintains the emotion of the original. Those being "harsh on karsh" may stay listening to the original. Art is about freedom.
Indeed I agree with you!! They wouldnt air it , if they hadn't rehearsed it that way!! Lovely rendition!! What hidden talent!!
Amazingly beautiful. Each vocalist and each instrument. Just beautiful ❤️
3:02 the real deal starts.. WARREN MENDONSA the guitar god.. I've listened to the lead more than I can imagine.. just WOW
love how the flute just rides into the acoustic guitar sounds in the beginning. The vocals are just perfect. Guitar solo's got much soul n control... too good. And to all those who think Shilpa Rao's voice is off when she enters, you must be TONE DEAF. Haven't u heard of blue note or that brown note? GREAT FUSION work. REFRESHING !
Karsh Kale is Godliness... Absolutely Brilliant..
Wow!! warren mendoza is the most amazing guitarist in india! Listened to him around 10 years back!! and still smitten by his music!! nice work shilpa too :)
This song is a warm hug to soul 🥺🌃✨
this song helps me a lot♥️...still coming back to it
why is warren mendonsa's name not mentioned in tittle!!! such insolence!!
Yeah I think that's MAJOR insult. I don't think he cares though.
souvik bhattacharya Its mentioned in the about video section under composed and produced...:)
Ajay Ramaseshan I know. But it's HIS song. It deserves title.
souvik bhattacharya it's actually Karsh Kale's song. Warren is a part of the Karsh Kale Collective.
They have given him due credits, but since it's Karsh Kale's song, no other artist can get the title credit.
Or Leonard Cohen, for that matter.
Been listening to Blackstrat for almost five years now. Never gets old.
Mr kale and Ms Rao..hard word puttin to promote other culture but Indian...
Warren Mendosa for everrr
Bloody brilliant that! can listen to this on repeat !
The guitar solo was amazing.. the Original song is about 10 minutes long .. Warren is a guitar god !! Karsh has made an amazing song even better..
I just heard this version a few weeks ago. What do you think? I’m enthralled, love it!
master piece of Warren mendosa. ..
you r d inspiration of many musician specially guitarist ...

The solo guitar portion is magical.

Epic! One of the best versions of this song around... seamless travel between two songs, never seemed two different ... and Shilpas Jhoola is abs fine, its just that we are so used to traditional 135 harmonies that it might throw you off when coming from hallelujah to Jhoolah , but its abs fine and that's why its good composition :-).. this episode is so good to hear after the utterly let down one from EL. ...

Thanks for giving Warren his space for this fabulous solo.. frankly he was severely under-utilized in previous episodes.
Just stumbled on this and i have it on replay. This is just brilliant, simply brilliant.
Brilliant. Seriously. Its taken me a few times to listen to this and I can now appreciate the complexities and layers of this song. So proud of you Karsh.

Revived my ears for guitar.
Warren is a bloody power house!
Hallelujah - Karsh Kale and Warren Mendonsa feat Shilpa Rao,
Truly loved and flute part is totally heart touching . Awesome karsh kale. Just awesome.. while flute is on the ending is totally deep.
I call myself a novice. All I know is when i like music, I like it. And this, I really like. :) Thank you Karsh Kale.

sooper happy moment to see Jai row kavi hit the cymbal while he FEELS Warren solo..... at 4:43 mins
Warren Mendonsa aka Blackstratblues. Your music, sir, is an addiction.
Jeff Beck's influence pouring heavily into the guitar's tone
Very special song...thanks for lyrics and meaning.
I normally don't like the overblown way this song is usually performed but this version is truly beautiful
