5. 'Dosti' � Atif Aslam
With
this horrendous cover of Junoon's hit 'Dosti', Atif Aslam not only made
ears bleed, but put one off the idea of ever wanting to hear the
original song again. What Mr Aslam was thinking when he decided to
force this song on an unsuspecting public is beyond comprehension, but
one does hope that he never repeats this mistake again. Atif's screechy
vocals couldn't even match up to the song, and perhaps that's why such
beloved songs should never be covered: they can never match upto the
original. Though Atif proved that far from matching Ali Azmat's vocals
on 'Dosti', he could only prove the old adage true: 'old is gold!' |
