Shaan needs no introduction. The singer has stolen millions of hearts in India and worldwide with his melodious voice. From lending his voice to Bollywood hits like Jabse Tere Naina to Tanha Dil, Shaan has given his voice to almost every B’wood star. In the light on him launching his app, the singer talks to us about his musical favourites:
What’s the one song you have on repeat on your iPod these days?
Feels by Calvin Harris
If you had to put together a soundtrack for your life, three songs that best describe your life would be:
Lucky, Happy both by Pharrel Williams, Mujhe Na Kehna Nahi Aata (Aksar), and Tum Ho Toh (Rock On)
You would describe your taste in music as:
Pretty much mainstream. I love songs with great lyrics and fresh, original tunes.
Is there any music you used to love as a kid or a teenager that you’re now embarrassed by when you think back?
No. I’ve had a pretty decent taste in music right since childhood. However, I have to accept that I did overdo the ‘I love only heavy metal’ phase due to peer pressure, but I used to secretly listen to a lot of pop music! (Laughs)
Your favourite time or way to listen to music:
In the car while stuck in Mumbai’s traffic.
One band or musician that you would like to perform a private concert for you:
I’d hate to watch a private concert all by myself. Defeats the purpose of a live concert.
One live act you would love to see at least once in your life:
Stevie Wonder
