Indian and Pakistani singer's has complex voice texture. Because they rehearse in that way from their childhood. But as a foreigner she did a tremendous job.
Complex voice texture......I have never , ever come across such a term in all my life. I didn't know voice has texture. We are all always learning. This is far too complex for me. If you guys travel out of India.... you will be amazed at the number of non Indians who can sing Indian songs.
@@malgudidays3311 I am not denying that non Indians aren't trying Indian songs! But you need to have that listening ability to differentiate . May be you can hear in this video, her voice is coming flat when the "harqats" are taken. This is not for her accent! It is about how her voice had been trained from her childhood. Indian singer or Pakistani singers when they start learning classical, they break their voice and restructure it. That's why I said that Indian and Pakistani singers has different voice texture.
Foreign ? She is not a foreigner, she is a musician, trained in Indian music. That word foreign....pffff.......i am sorry, my reaction is a bit too much i know, but i am a Hindu and i hate Modi, and i cannot tell anybody, so i will tell it here. You see, art is life, vedic is life, but in a huge huge countrie with so many flavours and languages, who the fuck is foreign ? Thes people who call them selves hindu but are caught up in rituals and superstition, i might give blood or a kidney to someone from Pakistan or Israel, and that kidney will work, so wtf is foreign ?
It's a very complicated classical song.... But how she sang the song is amazing.... Her voice is also so heart touching.... The guitarist is also fantastic.
@@SevenEyes I think, the female singer, does not practice, few ragas playing harmonium by herself with tabla "Teen Taal" after waking up from sleep, brushing teeth and without having any food/breakfast.
To see a non native speaker sing one of the hardest songs like this is absolutely mind blowing you just made magic right here. This is why music has no barriers at all its the one language that everybody speaks and understands better than any other language.
i usually don't comment on UA-cam, but your pronunciation of the Urdu language compelled me to do so. Your performance was amazing, and the guitarist did justice to the song.

Western singers can never grasp the intricacies of Indian notes and it’s music as it’s in a class of its own. But her rendition is deserved of kudos of trying to grasp the tunes and pronunciations. Indian music is truly soul food.
Tanya Wells is classically trained and is the Bengali/ Hindi/ Urdu etc. 'voice' in all of Nitin Sawhney's hits. Thank you for your timelessly ascendant work Tanya. Stay beautiful, blessed and singing.
You're singing raags in my mother tongue. You're reaching straight for the 4000 watts power line that is Rahat Fateh Ali. Highly impressive. Keep walking....
She sings as if she knows the meaning of each and every word. Very deep , soulful and she has given a new voice to the song which extensively touches your heart.
This is not an easy song to sing, on the top of it if you are not a native speaker , what this beautiful girl just did is a wonder. hats off and very weldone beautiful girl
Her voice took me by the throat and buried me.. It's so freaking beautiful, as an Indian I swear it's so soulfully sung. Felt this version stir my heart
I don't know what to say but I must. To sing such a difficult song by a great singer like Rahat Fateh Ali Khan in a language other than your native language and execute it so beautifully alongside just a guitar absolutely deserves huge applause. It takes huge courage and confidence to do that. Beautiful !! Thanks !!
And you sang in non native language so beautifully with absolute accuracy in pronunciation......just wow!!! You didn't dishearten Ustad Rahat Fateh Ali Khan; and a justice to this beautiful song. Guitarist no exception 👍👍👍
You are awesome. I never imagined a foreigner to be this precise in notes, pitch and pronounciation of Indian songs. What u are doing is absolutely tremendous and difficult. May god belss and fulfill all your legit desires.
All these years i lived thinking no one, no westerner could sing Indian. that it was too much for them. Madam, you just proved me wrong. Wow. that was extraordinarily good. love from India

A lot of pakistani can not even speak urdu properly. The fact that she is not a native speaker and delivers the song with a slight minute western tone deserve a lot of credit. Well Done
@@randomoutdoors8872 this song was written by Jaideep Sahni in Hindi. Not letting the Muslims steal it by claiming Sufi or Urdu shit. Go google it. A Muslim just performs it and that is it.
Further deepens my conviction that there is a transfer of energy when we die and we are reborn again. She must have been born in India in her previous life to sing so soulfully and connect with it deeply. It's like second nature to her.
I had not heard the original song for some time now, after I watched the movie. Today, I played both the original and this one, trust me on this…with all due respects to Janab Rahat Fateh Saab, this rendition has placed the feelings at another level. As I am typing this, I am playing for the third time. Awesome. Thank you.
Where was it since 1 year …. Randomly found it and I must say she sung fantastic ….. yes non native always had a problem in feelings and emotions but she is just awesome in every word of this song …. Take a big salute MAM
This is something amazing and beyond imagination...Literally got stunned to watch the song. I am a foreign language teacher and know very well how difficult it is to do such kind of superb performance in any another language. Thank you Seven Eyes"" for this amazing effort..
This is a very superior performance..... even while I am watching this I can’t believe it sounded so real .i am sure she’s worked very hard to reach this level . Kudos
It's not easy to pronounce Hindi and it's not easy to sing Hindi song with a touch of Indian classical style. You did very well. Really impressive. I loved it. Wishing you great success. ❤❤❤
Tanya is just fantastic. I listen to songs sung in Urdu only by her and everything I go and listen to the original singer, I come back to listening to Tanya
When she sang, my mouth dropped.. omg... wow... its not easy singing like that... a lot of indians learn this type of singing as a young child before they get that rhythm right. I wont say she nailed it but it is almost perfection. Beautiful voice and such respect and love towards indian music. Indian music is a very spiritual journey and so we indians do not take that lightly. It is God like.
Ma'am your singing just not only singing a song but also fells like tales of love , beauti and expression Not everyone can justify with song but your sense and love in it Feels like it happening ❤️
I haven't heard Indian songs or reaction to Indian songs in like 3 weeks and UA-cam recommended me this video, sometimes UA-cam recommendations give gems.
my mind is blown omg this is amazing her pronounciation and the way she is singing, if i heard just the audio i would be able to tell if indian/pakistani singer she did a tremendous job, even the alaps she took were truly amazing
She got 95% of the pronunciations absolutely correct wowzers. Impressive
99% of accent
@@sh69khar Of course she did! She grew up in India! She probably can speak Hindi and Urdu better than most of today's Indian youngsters! 😁
I give her 100%
Iltija (التجا) * not Iltiza
Better than screeching sub continent female singers
I give her 10/10
For the first time youtube algorithm did justice. What a performance.
same here. what a gem

Do you mean Rahat Fateh Ali Khan belongs to India rather than Pakistan?
@@faheemzafar2550 Nope. BUT Its an indian song from India movie, sung in india music. Its not pakistani music you know.

But her high pitch should be corrected
As an Indian, I see this as an absolutely wonderful performance. You did a wonderful job on the vocals. And the guitarist has my admiration.
I can only say wow. 🎉
@@radupopescu9977 Very true. But it's very beautiful to listen to
So soothing, as opposed to the more shrill, pitchy vocals of native singers.
You picked one of the toughest song and sang it to its perfection ..... !
My respect to the Guitarist .... !
I’ve heard music is a “global language” and this performance proves it.
The color of the skin or nationality doesn't matter. Most impressive ❤
I was not expecting this. Shocked. It is so peaceful.

I cried.
She has a deep voice , minor errors are over shadowed by her beautiful effort.
She sings as if she knows the meaning of each and every word. Very deep , soulful and she has given a new voice to the song which extensively touches your heart.
She should know as she was born and grew up in India
I was not ready for this level of performance. That too by two non-desis. Respect
Beautifully sung, no one can believe this is not her language. A natural, she has a special gift...

Accent, delivery, sur and taal all are absolutely fantastic.
Unbelievable
Rahat Fateh Ali was a great Pakistani singer. This song by Ms. Wells truly matches his high level.
Wow...if I listened to just the audio I would never believe she was not a native Hindi/Urdu speaker...amazing
The vocal, the guitar.. Sounds so dreamy!! 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
Random suggestion by youtube. Just blown away. Great performance.
Thanks ♥️
