This is MUSIC, where you take a Blockbuster and could have easily destroyed your own creation but you go GOD mode and create an infinity loop of pure MUSIC...loved it all hearts💕
The START no one could have imagined and turned out to be epic. The Aaalaps were mesmerizing. 👌❣️To own someone else's song like it's mine: Ahmed jehanzeb was phenomenal there rocking each second. That was lit AF.
I was hosting this show and I had goosebumps when AJ started belting solos to make the already wonderful Strings songs soar even higher. Great idea to bring him on to layer and extend the magic
@@anasfarrukh Seems like some people have problem understanding English.....Get some education buddy...life will be easy...!! Do some job, I pity on your family for having you.
It was 2000 when Duur was released and I was just ten at that time and then Dhaani came. I went crazy for strings as there was absolutely nothing like them those days and then Sajni song and this stage performance last year. From Duur to Duur, I have grown up and thirty now and they are emotions for me. It's something which can't be explained but can only be felt. 20 years and still the same energy, speaks a lot about them.
They are more than Just The Band They are the feeling which will take 90s kid back to MTV days where there was only music in that channel no bullshit shows and never cared from country you were The good old days❤️ Love from India
I totally agree dear. unfortunately our leaders of both Pakistan and India just wana blame each other and make bombs and thats all. I wish atleast our generation of both countries can see peace and harmony. Just imagine the potential both countries have not only in music but in different aspects of life.
So true, bro! I am from Mauritius and this was the very first Strings song that I listened to and got totally hooked up...That was back in '97 or' 98 (i don't really remember the exact year)... I bought a compilation CD from my student pocket money back then... And I got Duur and Sarkiye Pahar on the same CD. Been a distant fan since today... Am 42 now and still get goosebumps from those songs! Thanks Strings! You guys rocked my teenage years! 😉🇲🇺
I never heard Ahmed jehanzeb..the way he started the beginning .. what a soulful voice he has.. I love strings🥰😘 ..but this guy nailed it..love from Mumbai India..bharat desh...
Not under-rated. He is massively loved across Pakistan - everything he has sung has been lapped up by audiences. Its just a pity he does so little. I am going to go watch him at his magical best in Coke Studio's Allahu Akbar which he did with the equally magical Shafqat Amanat Ali.
2012 - Kolkata to Dubai emirates flight .... standing in line to be on-boarded, Faisal Kapadia came on in front... hold on what? Faisal Kapadia in Kolkata? Really rubbed my eyes, interestingly I was sitting exactly 2 rows after Faisal bhai in the economy class... people poured Hi's Hellos... I just saw him from distance... there goes my dhaani in durrr... As a normal bengali, did try to pursue my passion but left singing back in 2006 (I was just about okay, nothing special - dad discouraged rightly) but I have decided to prepare and die with these ears which can never be disclosed to anyone... man - this song, that guitar play in the background will kill me with madness one day.... Love and respect from Toronto and Kolkata
When you know its your Song ... but you set the Other singer Free to go ahead and sing it without any restrictions ... Pure Magic ... Salute Strings and Ahmed Jahanzeb ... may you have 20 more years 🙏 thank you
How Ahmed Jahanzeb changed the iconic song Duur to another level. Salute to that person who ask Ahmed jahanzeb to Feat in this song. Wow Amazing another level.
This is the best improvisation to any original song ever in the whole history of music. Loads of love (specially to Ahmed Jehanzeb to bring in a whole new soul to it) ❣️🎧
@@vickykj7698 no, that was delay effect. you can listen to other performances from this concert as well. Same sound quality, and audience involvement proves that this wasn't lip sync
I am from Bhutan and I used to listen to this when I was in my high school and getting to hear it again with the same feeling after becoming a father of 2 is such a wonderful feeling.. love from BHUTAN..
Just when you think Duur could not get any better...20 seconds into the song and Goosebumps..!! TEARS IN MY EYES and still singing along...What a band!! What music!! Eternal!! ❤️
Duur is back after 20 years with some 'classical tadka' by Ahmed Jehanzeb Wow!! 20 years since this epic composition was released and it still sounds so fresh every-time one listens to it. Thanks Strings for giving this to the world. For the 90s kids tracks like these and those from Silk Route, Lucky Ali, Euphoria have become anthems which have remained timeless and stood the test of time even now. These are the songs we jam on guitar when we get together with friends and guess what they come so organically - proof that we have internalized these tracks so much into our souls :) Coming to Duur - Guess what they could do to make it better - blend some Ahmed Jehanzeb into it. This jugal-bandi rocked!! I always attributed this song to Faisal's characteristic vocals especially in the lower registers and Ahmed Jehanzeb adds a completely new classical dimension to it so beautifully! And all this over a live jam setting with their raw vocals - which in the era of lip-synch, auto-tune is so nice to see :) Somehow I see Strings has really incarnated as a band, while Coke Studio was great as a platform they contributed to, it's great to see them back in their pop album scene with their album - 30, and each of the tracks were enjoyable. I hope their live stage shows resumes post the COVID thing. They still have so much music in them even after 30 years of entertaining us. Wish them the best. Coming to this rendition - what energy, stage presence by the whole band and vocals by Faisal and Ahmed. I just discovered this yesterday and have been hooked onto this ever since. I discovered Ahmed through Coke Studio, still recall the amazing track he did - Khaki Banda and have been a fan and hence it was incredible to see him and Strings come together on this. While the overall arrangement is the typical Strings stage rock-ish arrangement with a couple of electic guitars, keys and drums, the novel element definitely was Ahmed's vocals. Its amazing how beautifully he fuses his classical parts into an existing classic without it appearing forced or out of place. Special mention to the classical sargam that he seamlessly fuses into the composition following the raag based composition (based on the sargam, it looks like Raag Tilak Kamod. Can someone validate that? ). Truly speaks of his mastery. The other thing you notice in any typically stage show is the enthu of the band - especially Aahad Nayani - the drummer who is a regular in Strings band now. You would have also seen him in Coke Studio. I am intrigued by the way he single handedly infuses the energy in the band, that too remaining in the background, quite literally! :) Can't help him noticing jumping around while sticking to his beats immaculately at 05:44 :D Overall, a version that I would come back to occasionally for sure, while also listening to the original which is a classic. Look forward to more live jams from #Strings! :) Love, Prabhu
My 'Aha' Moments: 1) The initial semi-classical part by Ahmed at 00:15 2) The classic Strings guitar sound at 01:03 played by #BilalMaqsood. 3) When Faisal starts 'Duur se koi aae' at 01:06. I don't know why, but it always gives me goosebumps. Like Strings, Faisal's peculiar voice is also so timeless. And Ahmed joining him is amazing to listen 4) Ahmed rendering 'Saajana' with so many harkats and taking to a much higher pitch at 01:56 5) Ahmed singing the 'Duur se koi aae' part in a classical way at 03:29 6) Faisal singing 'Samaa' with a beautiful harkat at 03:36 :) 7) When Ahmed sings the alaap in the background and Faisal sings the Duur part at 03:43 8) The classic guitar solo of Duur!! at 04:00 9) The way Ahmed sings 'Jaise koi suna gaon' and takes the melody to a crescendo 04:53 10) The amazing sargam that beautifully fuses with the raag of the song by Ahmed at 05:13 (the sargam he sings "pa ni sa re ga sa re pa ma ga.... sa re ma pa ni... sa re ma pa ni sa" - is characteristic of Raag Tilak Kamod if I am not mistaken. Can someone confirm? :) ) 11) Aahad the drummer jumping animatedly! It's always such a pleasure to watch him! :) Also the amazing guitar solo there at 05:44 12) The friendly banter by the vocalists at 07:00 :) 13) The final alaap by Ahmed at 07:24 14) Random observation - but did someone notice the similary of the 'oho o oho' part at 07:52 with 'Dekha Hai Aise Bhi' by Lucky Ali? (Or is it just me? :P ) Feel free to add. your 'aha' moments :)
@@naveeeeed Yes, do checkout the song Phool Banro from Coke Studio. Abbas Ali Khan sings the same raag in the alaap towards the end :)... #ConnectingTheDots :)
Love your take on the performance Prabhu Bhai. I agree with you 100%. This performance takes me back 20 years. Can't believe we're that generation now that gets to say "back when I was growing up, music ki baat hi kuch aur thi!" Haha :)
this band is not a band its a band of life and emotions... 20 years same feeling same emotions.... love you from pathankot(punjab) india.... gaurav malhotra
The drummer is insane ! Sheer Goosebumps.. You have recreated your own magic by such a beautiful rendition to this beautiful number.. @Faisal Kapadia , have been a fan of yours since the 90s.. I believe your tonal quality is one and the most unique on this planet.. ❣️❣️
AJ killed it...nailed it...wish he had more.songs in his career.....Junaid Jamshed once said that AJs voice is amazing...n so it is...strings u r.n will be legend always!
I thought coke studio version of Durr was best... But this took the best to the next level..... I am listening this on a repeat mode n still feels like listening it 1000 more times.... I wish I wish I could be there to enjoy the live performance..... This Collab is awesomeeeeee😍😍
@@DailystuffAB m not.... Music is different from border, and this music only connect us...... Even I want to see live strings in India before I die.......
Being a 90s kid, now 31, I would say what a time to be alive.. I love being here and I cherish my time in this world.. this song brings back a lot of memories. One particular is the time I spent with my younger brother. we used to listen to these together, and sometimes turn by turn when we had only 1 mp3 player at our disposal. We are still together but life is very busy and distractions are too many.
Ahmad saheb's voice adds another dimension to an already great composition. I think I liked this rendition more than the original man. Can't imagine how the live experience would have been.
Mahaul hi ban gaya hai Raat ke 2:30 baj rahe hain... headphones pe sun raha hoon lekin aisa lag raha hai ki mai audience me hoon live sun raha hoon... Beautiful_ composition, musical arrangement and singing... WOW

@@BilalGaming332 i have already seen his work but he can't match the level of aahad nayani.he is talented as well he knows very well how to connect with audience.gumpy is dippressed drummer most people who watches him will feel bore afterwards
Live at concert?....yeah definitely...even internationally their are only few bands like Coldplay, that can pullout such a flawless performance live at a concert
bohat afsos hota hy jab aj kal faltu kisam k songs viral hotay hain ic ko aye huy 4 din hgye. Aur kisi o pata hi nhi. Just 20k views. Ahmed Jehanzeb The most under-rated singer. One of my fav one in my childhood. Then he disappears. Aur STRINGS ka to koi muqabla hi nahi. Mazaa hi agya sun k.
Aahad Nayani ... Man! The way he plays and enjoys his drumming. What a delight ❣️ Strings is eternal. Everything about this song is so pure and heart touching. Listening on repeat. 🌺💓
ahmed jahanzeb his high notes touch your soul every time and make you cry what a heavenly voice he has and hats off to stings for this collaboration you guys are the ultimate legends..🙏🙏 Nothing but Respect 🙏🙏
When a band can survive over 20 years and kinda sustain the same magic over three decades... thats called SUCCESS!!!!

He's a heart throb who himself stepped aside from the limelight.
He's still the best!

@@uditdaima6620 just few seasons and post their exit, the production wasn't the same!
Coke studio and Pepsi have produced such performances already. U r underestimating their productions.
Damn! Brilliant version of one of the fav bands. Cheers from India
@3:40 when faisal changes and goes with Sajnaa while Ahmed comes with the actual SAAAJNAAAA. Aaye haaye❤
Yes bro..... Its heart breaking
Can we all agree on the fact that Ahmed jahanzed is the most underrated singer of Pakistan
apologies , No he is not , he is not atif aslam , he is ahmed jehangzaib , he comes once is decade n boooommmm. . . .!!!
Ahmad Jahanzeb has taken this Song bohot hi Duuuuuuurrrrrr...beyond the limits...❤❤❤
Lucky ali, strings and the local train still alive the great music.... Love from 🇮🇳....
dont u indians support bans on pakistani artists/singers?
@@DailystuffAB m not.... Music is different from border, and this music only connect us...... Even I want to see live strings in India before I die.......
A baig...brother please don't bring this border bullshit where we are praising this beautiful piece of art...music has no boundaries
Nope, we don't support any ban on any Pak artists. Do you? I am genuinely interested to know. Grew up listening to Strings!
Love from Türkiye 🇹🇷
Pure talent and decent lyrics that you dont find these days. One of my favourite band. Love ❤️ from India 🇮🇳.
I can safely say that i am not the only one mesmerized by this newer version. Ahmad Jahanzeb you beauty
It is very rare to find a voice like Faisal's.
Being a 90s kid, now 31, I would say what a time to be alive.. I love being here and I cherish my time in this world.. this song brings back a lot of memories. One particular is the time I spent with my younger brother. we used to listen to these together, and sometimes turn by turn when we had only 1 mp3 player at our disposal. We are still together but life is very busy and distractions are too many.
What an amazing singer Ahmed Jahanzeb is. I can literally declare him miles ahead of Arijit Singh.
Drummer is enjoying to the fullest! Bands like "Strings" rarely come into existence. Mind-blowing performance.
He's always like that ;)
That's Aahad Nayani. He also drums in Coke Studio. He's always full of energy.
It means that you also enjoy it with full heartly like me so we saw us in drummer.
Going to tell my kids what taste we had. Absolutely
Amazing
Ahmad saheb's voice adds another dimension to an already great composition. I think I liked this rendition more than the original man. Can't imagine how the live experience would have been.
Mahaul hi ban gaya hai Raat ke 2:30 baj rahe hain... headphones pe sun raha hoon lekin aisa lag raha hai ki mai audience me hoon live sun raha hoon... Beautiful_ composition, musical arrangement and singing... WOW
bHAIYA, music jab aatma mei uttarta hai tab aisa hi hota hai. Iss gaane ko aatma mei aur andar uttarne ke liye hamare headphones ka upyog ki jiye.

From lowest place of Mumbai.. wish to see you live in my life once atleast..
I am big pink Floyd fan .if Indian Ocean is Indian pink Floyd than you guys a led zep and queen and pearl jam and scorpion Aerosmith and other together..
I think Faisal himself got stuuned and Ahmed himself just couldn't believe how beautiful this turned out in the end.. 😃😃
Bhai who is ahmed? I guess the guy in jacket. Is he a known singer in pakistan? I have never seen anyone singing actively in strings apart from Bilal and faisal?
@@madhurchari6851 he is not a part of string. He is a solo artist Ahmed jahaanzeb. Here he is as a guest singer with string.
No its not right... Obviously they jam together before any event... But faisal would be stunned by seeing him in perfection live 🙂
@@fahadjavaid7336 got it. Amazing singer. I'll listen to his songs
Exactly bro..... Awesome performance 🙏🙏🙏
this drummer is killing it !
That’s Aahad Nayani. Top Pakistani drummer
@@asadali2311 make me remember Gambi
@@BilalGaming332 i have already seen his work but he can't match the level of aahad nayani.he is talented as well he knows very well how to connect with audience.gumpy is dippressed drummer most people who watches him will feel bore afterwards
@@asadali2311 he came to India along with strings way back in 2013 or so.
You guys are amazing and our inspiration… kudoos… ❤❤❤❤ from India
no body tells me how long I have been listening strings and still it goes on love from ❤️ nepal 🇳🇵
This reminds me my engineering college days. Drummer actually killed it, there is no words for him.
Ahad Nayani he is... Legendary one ✌🏻🙌🏼
Exactly... what an attitude towards music...
Hardworking version
Drummer is on another level 🔥
Listen his magic from 4 20
Who is the drummer?
@@nabeelkhan7209 He is Aahad Nayani, probably the best in Pakistan.
WE DESERVE A BRAND NEW ALBUM FROM "AHMED JAHANZEB" .. IT"S BEEN AGES ALREADY !! HE"S PURE UNBEATABLE TALENT !
#AhmedJehanzeb
Wishing from a long time
Is this probably the BEST live performance of a Pakistani band? You bet it is. Everything is a 10/10, incredible
Live at concert?....yeah definitely...even internationally their are only few bands like Coldplay, that can pullout such a flawless performance live at a concert
@@noumanahmad86 iron maiden too :D
With Ahmed Jahanzeb, this song has gone to another level.. the rocking more than ever..
Ahad Nayani best !💐
Strings is not just a band, so many memories are attached with you guys.
If I could sing like Ahmed Jahanzeb, I would never stop singing.
bohat afsos hota hy jab aj kal faltu kisam k songs viral hotay hain
ic ko aye huy 4 din hgye. Aur kisi o pata hi nhi. Just 20k views.
Ahmed Jehanzeb The most under-rated singer. One of my fav one in my childhood. Then he disappears. Aur STRINGS ka to koi muqabla hi nahi.
Mazaa hi agya sun k.
bro ye log marketing nahi kartey warna viral hojaien
They were and are the true legends who will always be remembered for this contribution to music...Love them
My Goodness, after
Long long time that magic is same..
Ahmed nay CHAR Chand Laga diyaay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dost 4 nhi chaalisssss chand kahen....
Aaaalla kerdia Aaalllaaaa
Aahad Nayani ... Man! The way he plays and enjoys his drumming. What a delight ❣️ Strings is eternal. Everything about this song is so pure and heart touching. Listening on repeat. 🌺💓
Amit Shah will kick your ass
☺
@@ekthabhaiyaji2640 why? Indians have let border affect their love for good music and never will.
U r absolutely right... Ha just plays as he wishes... He is not a drummer... He is a magician...
Deadliest drummer 🥁🥁🎧 i have ever seen 🥰🎈
Love from INDIA.🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Ahmad Jahanzeb is most underrated singer of this century.
If my son didn't appreciate strings, i'd doubt if he's really my kid.
😂 😂 😂
Really😁😁
🤣🤣
What if he adore Honey Singh 😂🤣😜
@@anjananaam9347 🤣🤣🤣🥴🥴
This could possibly be the antidote for Covid-19.
Love from India ❤
Ahad nihani bhai🔥🔥🔥🔥 ek no drummer ho bhaijann

Brilliant brilliant Ahmed Jahanzeb - love this and have it on ITunes for my car
The drummer is lit!!
One of the best drummers of South Asia ..
Can be seen in a lot of videos
Aahad Nayani yes.
Check gumby.
Pakistan’s number 1 drummer is Gumby but no doubt Ahad nayani is also good
I would rate Aahad Nayani A++. Plz see his skills in coke studio song of the singer "Mai Dhai "
@@farhan_afridi_1977 I would rate Gumby A++++++ due to his so many performance
1:08, when they knew they were making history ❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏
Ahmed Jehanzaib U R ❤️
I cried. And the whole time I was like it's not real it's not real it's not real... And I don't know why haven't I listened to them before. ❤️
Same here
