- Outstanding performance from SB John. Very rare. Lyrics by Fayyaz Hashmi, composed by Master Manzoor Hussain for the 1959 film Savera.
Credit to Anis Shakur for this information, and thanks to Asif bhai for bringing it to my attention.
----------------
S.B. John. Sunny Benjamin John, who is popularly known as S.B. John, was born in 1934. He spend most of his life in Karachi, Pakistan.
Accompanied with his wife and two sons namely Robin and Glenn John, S.B. John used to sing gospel on Christmas Eve, on Pakistani television.
Prominent singers like S.B. John who perform it best could still be heard joyously stretching and bending notes, breaking syllables and bouncing phrases back and forth.
S.B. John started singing on Radio Pakistan Karachi as an A category artist. Side by side he also made his presence felt in various functions and stage shows held in Karachi.
S.B. John also sang Janab Rana Akbar Aabadi Sahabs ghazal, Uray hoash us dar pay janay say pehlay. Sohail Rana composed this ghazal at EMI Pakistan.
Around 1973, S.B. John introduced his son, Robin John, to Sohail Rana and said that he wishes to get his son a keyboard. Since young Robin remembered all his fathers songs. Robin was seven or eight years of age at the time.
Fifteen years later, S.B. John again brought Robin to Sohail Rana. By that time Robin had grown up as a talented singer. Hence, Sohail Rana utilized Robins singing talents in Pakistani television shows, and also in private songs and the film recordings.
Additionally, Robin also toured UAE, Turkey and USA with Sohail Rana and participated in the musical programs.
Nowadays, Robin lives in USA. Hopefully, his parents will join him soon.
Presumably, it never occurred to S.B. John that his name will become synonymous with the song
Tu jo naheen hai to kuchh bhee naheen hai, ye mana keh mehfil jawan hai haseen, the 1959 film Sawera, Music composer, Master Manzoor Hussain, lyrics, Fayyaz Hashmi, pictured on Kamal, Shamim Ara- Kamal played the lead.
Forty-seven-years down the line, this song is as much in demand as if it were recorded yesterday. Alas! To this day, no one could come up with the explanation as to what is so special about this song.
But we dont need a logical explanation. Some things should remain mysterious. The wistful magic of S.B. John is, indeed, one of them.
ایس بی جونز کا آصلی فلمی گانا ,,وہ بہت ھی زبردست,ھے,,اگر,ھو سکے ,,تو وہ سنوا دیں ,,تا کہ ساری دنیا جان سکے کہ پاکستان کے فنکار کتنے عظیم تھے,,فلمی صنعت کتنی عظیم تھی,,
وہ کونسا ہے؟
I wish music was a compulsory subject at schools. Had it been so , Pakistan would have been a happy and tolerant nation
indeed
This song was recorded at the BBC studio in UK when Sb John sir toured with mehdi hassan sahab and Moin akhtar Sahab in the 70s

کیا شاعری ہے کیا آواز ہے ایس بی جان صاحب کی بہت سی محبتیں ان کیلئے دہائیاں گذر گئ ان جیسا کوئ نہیں گا سکا ❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹💚💚💚
وہ آئیں نہ آئیں، جمی ہیں نگاہیں - ستاروں نے دیکھی ہیں جھک جھک کے راہیں - یہ دل بدگماں ہے، نظر کو یقیں ہے - یہ مانا کہ محفل جواں ہے حسیں ہے -

Wha wha bohat aala

This is a song which will appeal to Human Hearts until the end of the World. Its more than a masterpiece.
God must have been present during this Live version in bbc studio Birmingham England.
I am speechless hearing gazal of SB John. My blessings to him.
This voice is one of the greatest from Pakistan. SB John a legend.
I was amazed by sweetness of the song of SB John.
I have no word to express myself.
پرسوز آواز، اعلی موسیقی، اور پرانی یادیں۔ واہ بھئی واہ۔
Sometimes the voice of the angels comes from the heavens in the form of human beings. S. B John is definitely one.
😢😢😢😢missing childhood days jis saal mein ye realese hua tha uss tym world cup chal raha tha
Voice from heaven.
Felling that he is singing in front of me. Great time.
Love from Africa.
What feeling of this ghazal.wah wah
I listened this ghazal by radio Pakistan when in1960s farmaishi programmes broadcasting by pakistan I was under graduate. So many times that time.
There after almost 55 yrs. I listened to on net. Thanks for utube.
Me and my wife love this eternal song. Luckily today is her birthday and playing this lovely song for her , October 18'2018,
Beautifully sung
Lovely song
Wah wah just Great John saab***
Very natural and heart touching voice great sb John sir.
Heard this as a kid with my dad , brings all the memories back ❤️❤️look how people wore suits just to sing on stage😀😀 , how respectful? Now a days the more clothes you take off the better they like you !!
Best melodious song very beautifully sung by Mr. S.B. John.
no subsequent singer could touch the soul of this song like SB John did. take a bow John sahab!
Wahhh John Sahab. Khoobsurat... Sampson David, India
Great Singer. May Allah Bless him. I am from Karachi now live in London. England.
S B John was my music teacher in school :D
Lillopanja
Very interesting
Which school? APS Saddar?
@@abdullahsohail4644 yes
He was mine too
in 57 years I heard this gazal very first time and after that again and again I played this heart touching gazal. I heard because Mr S.B.John you have jadoo in your voice.
And u r now 60. 👍May you complete ur 100 and beyond Century.
I m. 57. 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
simplicity yet elegance. it is such a shame and travesty that Pakistan does not give respect to its golden singers and arts;
My favourite song. My late brother was too liking this gazal, sometime he use to sing also. We were having disc of this. My childhood memories lies with it. Thanks for uploading on tube.
Pakistan zindabaad
Really hammering track
All time best .song for ever
This song never be forgotten
Great classic of pakistani cinema
Pakistaaaaaaaaaaaaan zindabaaaaaad
کراچی کے عظیم اردو گلوکار
Beautiful voice with incredible music composition and lyrics. I don't know where that time & era lost
Isi ek geet gakar S B.Jhon sahab amar ho gaye hain.
wah John saab , brilliant
واہ واہ بہت خوب
words fall short to express how superb this song is sung by s. b john. a joy for all times to listen. God bless you Mr. s b john.
❤️❤️❤️ Immortal Classic! ❤️❤️ I was a kid when this song was released. I am surprised why this great singer didn't get the chance for more songs? His voice quality and singing is so great!!!
I used to wonder that myself, till I read somewhere that great Christian singers like SB John, Irene Parveen ,Saleem Raza and others were intentionally not given an opportunity to professionally thrive in Pakistan.
@@malika8309 I beg to differ with you Malik Saheb, Irene Parween and Salim Raza served the film industry for a long time, we are proud of them. I think the voice quality of Irene Parween was special and not suitable for every song. But I feel that S. B. John Saheb must be given chance on Television as well. He is a great singer including Salim Raza who possesses a magical voice.
Everyone was converted to Islam, life made very difficult, like yousaf Yohana.
What A befitting reply!@@SSHK237
Effortless singing and soothing voice. Hearing this song for the first time.
Well, artistry written all over.!.
S B John Sahaib is a wonderful human being I had the honor of spending some great times with him and his harmonium not only he is a singer he is also a composer of many ghazals , I find myself very fortunate to have spent time with Fayyaz Hashmi Sahaib at the residence of Sohail Rana Sahaib. These guys are the rare Diamonds of Pakistan. IMTIAZ FARUQUI . USA
Beyond border we loves music.
From south india with love.
Wah... zabardas....
His voice touches my heart. I heard him in the 70s as a child living in Tanzania over shortwave on Radio Pakistan. I looked for this song ever since and I even asked people going to Pakistan to see if they could get his cassette. Alas, the 80s came few remembered him and said I was 'old' fashioned. 90s, noone even knew who he was. Those of us who heard him, he remains in our hearts and minds.
I am grateful that this has bought so many beautiful memories of tuning to Radio Pakistan on 19m band.
Thats interesting because I also heard this song played on short wave prog called Dail a Disk in Tanzania
Saj San yes great song
habari gani rafiki abdullah. ndio dial disk program kwa AM radio. i remembered very well. golden memories of pledges.@@konpalabdullah1896
The song is having everlasting effect..i heard it in early 80s...people used to like it like a block buster in pakistan...
What you guys were doing in Tanzania anyway? 🙄and that too in 70s.
kmaal poetry aur kmaal he gaya ha wah wah wah maza aa gya 😍😍😍
تو جو نہیں ہے تو کچھ بھی نہیں ہے
یہ مانا کہ محفل جواں ہے ، حسیں ہے

A REAL DIAMOND..

No match to this effortless and sweet rendition of this most difficult melody. One of Pakistan's best film songs.
Didn't knew that Glenn John's version is actually a cover of this great composition by S B John.
Such a great composition and great lyrics.
I today listened to this song's rendition by Glenn. I was shocked that he even copied the melody, beat and depth but SP John is the original who cannot be beat. Old is always Gold. Irrespective, the song lives on.
I wish to write SP John a personal letter but i have never found his address, if anyone has his address, please forward it to me sajsanr@gmail.com; At least there is a soul so far away that has not been to his country yet is connected via this beautiful ghazal.
actually turned out Glen is SP John's son.
@@sajsan4763 haan na sb john k sahab zaday hen glen john
-/ this is a film song ., where John saab was play back singer .. film savera!
@@sajsan4763 5 saal pehle aap ne ek msg kiya 4saal tak koi reply na mila 5ven saal aap ne khud hi apne sawal ka jawab de diya, herat hai agar is gane ki ek do lines aaj tiktok pe aa jayen to sab jaan jayen is gaane ko, herat ki baat hai aese aese haseen khazane hain hamare paas koi jsnta hi nahi or tiktok jesi behooda app pe aa jayen to raaton raat logon ki zaban pe charh jate hain andaza karein zara
great Urdu singer from native Karachi
