Crooner

"I won't be able to talk much, I cannot talk. I know only one thing and that is to sing"

I laughed as you said that Arijit, because talk is superfluous when you sing! You made thousands of people scream and go ballistic with excitement as you crooned one song after another, non stop, seamlessly blending your own songs with others', across genres. You had my complete attention from the moment you made an entrance on that stage till the time you said goodbye over two hours later. And I felt like a pendulum going between goosebumps and warmth, surprised by your innate skill and overwhelmed with the natural romance in your voice that makes silly, mundane lyrics sound like beautiful poetry. No wonder "Tum hi ho, ab tum hi ho..".
Ladies and gentlemen- the one and only Arijit Singh, Live in concert!
