OH MY GOD! Waleska & Efra react to TOP 10 Best Selling INDIAN Albums 

SP Balasubramaniam sir has held the world record for recording the highest number of songs by a singer with over 40,000 songs in 16 languages.he also created a record by recording 21 songs in Kannada from 9 am to 9 pm. In addition, he recorded 19 songs in Tamil, and 16 songs in Hindi in a day, which has also been called a record.

We don't call him Lord HR for nothing bro!! 2006-2008 was the peak Himesh era. Everyone was listening to him. All the auto rickshaws, truck drivers, buses played his songs all the time!! What a legend!! ❤‍🔥🔥

S P BALASUBRAMANIAM One of the greatest singers of india . He sung 40,000 plus songs in his career.he is no more with us 😭 om shanti U guys have to listen his iconic songs 👌

I still have the original album of Himesh Reshammiya’s Aap Kea Surroor with me which bought by my sister’s Best Friend from India. Himesh became one of my favorite Singer when he start his career as a playback singer in aashiq banaya aapne movie song. Later on I found out that he have worked as a music composer for so many movies before becoming a singer and most of the songs are very popular know even.

I remember the craze of Himesh in 2006-2008....MAN WE WERE BUYING EVERY DAMN CD OF HIS...EVERY CAR USED TO PLAY JUST HIMESH

The combination of Chithra Ma'am and SP Sir is unparallal

Himesh got so hit because he came suddenly with his Nasal tone vocal quality which was very new to people and it got liked by people.

For genuine song lovers, there were 2 movie albums in the 90s that we cherish till today: Roja and Bombay. The music director for both was A.R. Rahman and in my opinion that remains his best work till now. Do check it sometime for a podcast or even otherwise. 👍

can we bring back 2006 himesh reshamiya those songs were just amazing

In Indian movies the albums are by the Music Composers (Music Director) such as AR Rahman or Amit Trivedi etc. and they assign the songs to different Singers. So the Album essentially belongs to the Music Director and the singers are just singing based on the tune provided by the Music Director. Also the songs are lip synched by the actors on screen. That’s why a lot of the older india. Singers seem so versatile they would sing a song in the mannerisms of the actor who was going to act it out on the screen.

Himesh Reshammiya was the emperor in his time man it was just extremely good in my school days in any festival in any programs his songs were compulsory

Himesh was a RAGE back in my younger days. I used to sing his songs and try to imitate his vocal tone and quality. Such was the craze that every age group loved his songs and hummed to it from the upper echelon to the daily wagers. Got huge respect for him and would love to rejoice such musical ingenuity once again. FUN FACT: He was a Music composer much before his fame as a singer(much alike B PRAAK). A collab between these 2 geniuses would be LEGENDARY.

Yes you guys still have to discover S P Balasubramaniam sir

S.P Balasubramaniam is G.O.A.T a legend u must react to his live performance u will be mesmerised❤️

It was quite common for Indian Playback Singers to have their personal albums too. Infact many singers got there break to sing for big movies after their albums were hit. SONU NIGAM's album 'Deewana' and 'Jaan' were absolute gems. Shaan, Alisha Chinoy, KK, Daler Mehdi and Lucky Ali and many more phenomenal singers had their individual albums which were massive hits. You should check them out for sure. Start with Sonu

BOMBAY would be a really really worthwhile film to check out. It is widely regarded as one of the best movies EVER MADE in India and is part of Mani Ratnam's *Terrorism Trinity* with Roja and Dil Se. The album as you just saw is also an absolute masterpiece thanks to A R Rahman.

i remember buying himesh reshamiya album apka suroor. it was in local CD shop of 20 indian rupees that would be like 0.24 US dollors . i was in middle school that time and to be honest its not hard to have million sales in india that time actually our country has huge population and people love indian singers . the price of albums are affordable by middle calss people so its easy to grab them. these days CD's are not in trend so people listen songs online but 7 years ago we still buyed CDs of our fav movie album or singers. We don't use that CD now but i have that apka suroor album till this day with me. To be honest i didn't even knew who he was at that time , i just wanted to listen some new songs so shop owner told me his songs were famous that time , so i have some pocket money from parents and i buyed it . Songs were great and whole country used to listen it those time.

SP balasubramaniam aka SPB, was the best, plzz do check him out

Please listen to more songs of K S Chitra Mam she is a legend just like Lata Mangeshkar Mam 😊

Himesh still isnt considered 'singer' By many legends But as new generation's so called knowledge of music is ... ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️

All of these are before 2000s because after that people listened to music mainly through fm, cable tv and later smartphones. Most of the sales depicted here are in the form of casette tapes.

Been Waiting for SPB for a long time man has the world record for singing the most songs ever. Would need a stand alone podcast just for him. Because he has sung in most of the Indian Languages

8:41 Yes this was the approach the directors took in the 80-90s that the voice should be constant to the character and also the voice should resemble the actor/actress too. They rejected many talented singers back in the time just because their voice don't resemble with the actor/actress.

Most underrated singer was Hariharan singing in Bombay & Roja ...His voice is unique & sweet at the sametime

Hey! In India we do have albums as well but mostly for the pop singers (Solo/Bands), interesting part is that the playback song format from the movies is more popular.....

So yes "albums" as such are usually not common. Most are movie albums with multiple artists singing the songs. Earlier the only common individuals throughout the album would be the music director and the lyricist who wrote/composed the songs. This would make the albums sonically and thematically cohesive while still very much depicting the story of the movie through music. Modern day Bollywood has however seen the unfortunate trend of movie albums sounding more like compilations with songs by multiple music directors and lyricists rather than one body of work due to the remake fever that seems to have taken over excluding some music directors like A R Rahman & Amit Trivedi who actually agree to make music for a movie only if they are guaranteed that they will be the sole ones doing music for the film.

When Himesh Reshammiya came with his album Tera Suroor , He literally Shake the industry, Everyone want to Heard him. Every where means everywhere

Please do a feature Friday podcast by selecting songs from this list🙏😊

Unless a particular song is too sad or too joyful, the same singer usually provides the female voice for all songs. There are too many exceptions to make this any kind of rule.

2005 to 2010 is basically himesh era he was ruling that time .all the songs is superhit that time .

SPB sir's combos with AR Rahman & Ilayaraja sir are the all time greatest..

S. P. Balasunhramanyam legend

Himesh album aap ka suroor is my best memorable thing of my childhood, We grown up by listening his songs from the album aap ka suroor

6:16 Whenever I asked my grandma, how the singers earned back in the day, she always told me that their pay depends on how many copies of album ( which they are a part of ) are sold. She also said they were paid after their songs became hit. She maybe wrong. Bollywood is very secretive about how it works. Nobody knows except the singers or music directors.

Lata Mangeshkar mam is living legend 🙂💓miss you mam

14:42 noooooo it’s a small temple , it’s not a tribute dude … oh god I laughed so hard at Efra saying that😂😂

answering your questions- (edit-do a request a podcast on atleast 90s, 50-70s, and react to ScoopWhoop: 60 Years Of Bollywood In 4 Chords..they did amazing compilation, in description named all 35 songs they included) 1 yes all these are movie albums except Daler Mehndi's (ig its correct if it wasnt for a punjabi movie) where producers could either hier just one composer to make song [like Brahmastra-Pritam] OR many composers give songs for a sing movie album like [aashiqui 2- by mithoon, jeet ganguly]....and you know that not all songs of a movie album arent sung by a single singer in indian cinema...movie albums are under the label not the singers/composers 2 hritik's name is pronounced as ritik..H is silent 3 not necessary that a particular singer is voice of main leads [eg aashiqui 2, ML had kk,arijit,ankit as voice, FL had shreya,palak to sing songs]..but the voice has to be matachable like u cant have arjit,himesh sing for a single person it would sound so odd..lol🤣🤣..but we have rockstar where mohit sang all for ranbir 4 My guess why himesh sold that many is mainly because he was different from all sweet, melodious, perfect notes singers like lata,sonu which we had for decades without break..he was like later version of kishore kumar without melodious notes..which ig amazed people that time Ps-my favs from these is definitely aashiqui(this was so popular among lovers in those days), Hum apke hai kon(still all its songs are played in weedings/baraat atleast in tier 2,3 cities) and madhuri+salman/kajol+srk ruled the 90s

And Yes that was Deepika. Himesh was the one who gave her first break in the hindi movie Industry with this song, which was a massive hit.

No coz I remember there was a time Himesh Reshammiya songs were everywhere, lol. Also yes sometimes in some movies a particular singer provides vocals for a particular actor for majority of the movie bcoz the voice suits the actor. Like Udit Narayans voice suits SRK really well & he has sung many songs for him as a playback singer. And we also have those tribute things on side of roads for people who might have died, but most of the times they are actually mini shrines for Gods & Deities.

55M is just official sales there were so many non original sales went onto imagine if we calculate every sales ✨ Himesh was in peak 2004-06

Hariharan is so underrated. People are sleeping on him.

So Himesh has been directing music since the 90s he wasn't just some guy from the streets like Atif coming out with his first album, still impressive don't get me wrong but the man was an established name in Bollywood music well before Aap Kaa Suroor came out.

Himesh Reshammiya back to back 48 song chart buster World record

Shreya also has seperate album other than movie, check out le ja leja re meheki rat me song it's one of album of shreya

SP Balasubramaniam is a legendary singer in South India especially for me it's his Kannada songs..

yes please check out SP Balasubramaniam

SPB’s voice is amazing. ❤

Himesh Reshammiya....when I was a kid around 6-7 years old I went to a barbar shop, I had to sit for 30 minutes for my turn, the barber has set up speaker full blast Himesh Reshammiya aap ka suroor album and was vibing, after listening for 10 minutes, I started vibing too that was my intro to him. Later from 2012-15 Himesh Reshammiya only started composing songs and not sing then anymore... And then later he became a regular in judging singing reality shows in India like Saregamapa just like Adam Levine, Blake Shelton are a regular in Voice.

You guys really need to watch DDLJ! It's probably one of the most famous if not most famous bollywood movie of all time.

Man Himesh lost so much weight. I remember back when Suroor came out, wasn't the biggest fan, liked his direction more than his nasal singing although some of his songs do slap. But he didn't look fat but contrast that Himesh with today's? It's like a different man altogether. Kudos to him.

Do watch whole " dil to pagal hai" album

4:15 that is one of the best Shreya Song… I don’t understand Bengali Language but that song is something … Soulful ☺️☺️☺️

Bro... The Aashiqui Album.. my mom was a teenager at that time and she had a crush on Rahul Roy and that's why she bought the album from her pocket money.😭

If u want to react Sonu Nigam Album DEEWAANA 1. Ab mujze raata din tumhara intezar hai 2. Deewana Tera 3. Deewaane ho k hum milne lagay sanam Love ur reaction as alys Stay Blessed 🙌 Guys

Regarding your question: Generally, singers for a movie album are chosen based on how their voice would suit the song, not the character. However, some directors might want to repeat the same singer for the character in order to maintain consistency, like you saw with Lata ji in Hum Aapke Hai Kaun. The more recent example would be Mohit Chauhan for Ranbir Kapoor in Rockstar. And another factor is when actors prefer a singer as he/she would suit their voice. This would go beyond a single film or director. Examples include Raj Kapoor-Mukesh, Rajesh Khanna-Kishore Kumar and Emraan Hashmi-Himesh Reshamiya.

_I remember, I was in my high school (10th grade), the album "Apka Suroor" by Himesh Reshammiya released and everywhere, every lane, every village, every city the songs were blasting. You must react to all the songs of this album._

React to kaho na pyaar hai song

Please react to more songs of the legendary SPB sir. He was a very big pillar of Indian music industry, especially South film industry. He sang around 40000 songs in his career. He was the voice of Salman Khan in the 90s

The music composer is king in India's Bollywood and other regional film industries. He gets a budget from which he pays various singers, musicians, etc., for their work . Usually, the amount is a little for singers, but given that the movie songs are the biggest hits, the singers are recognized for these songs and are in demand for live shows for the same reason. That's where they make their money. Occasionally, they release singles which may become popular, and there they have royalties.

I am surprised you haven't reacted to Adnan Sami(born and raised in England) yet. His songs and his live performance are a vibe

I remember the time when Himesh was all over ...and that's because his nasal singing style was new to the mass. He is not respected as a "singer" but has contributed his compositions to many well known songs, so yeah he is a very good composer tbh.

Even I had 'aap ka suroor' album even though I didn't buy albums back then like I was 11 or 12 and I begged my mom to get me one. He was awesome but the day he decided to try out acting 🤐

SP Balasubramanyam is a legend! You guys must check him out. He recently passed away. May his soul rest in peace. He sang in many languages and was a very versatile singer.

Damn Waleska, yes she's Dipika Padukone, it was her first big break in that song as main extra.

The old Aashiqui Movie is going to be release as a Music album at that time but Mahesh Bhatt has written story of the movie around this songs Music album is the plot of the story.

himesh reshamiya is my favorite music composer

90s songs, good days 🥺

hey you haven't listen to Zubeen Garg yet ......Mayabini ratir bukut is one of his phenomenal song

Himesh's Voice is a running joke, his style of singing is very very nasal voice with great, catchy music, this makes him one of the most iconic bollywood singers, everyone respects him and when you get bored you go back to Himesh's 2000s hits, back in the day every ricksha or tuktuk blasted Himesh's songs and at that time, Emraan's movies became hits due to Himesh's playback singing. He's a legend, really unique artist❤️

Next review must:- Himesh Aap ka Suroor Album songs please......!!!👌👌

You guys should Watch "Dil to Pagal hai" all songs it's Amezing 🔥 Next Please Watch "Sita Raman" movie ❤️

S. P. Subramanyam was the legend of the legends..... Pls review his "saathiya tune kya kiya" and "ye haseen vaadiyan"

India has always had the film music albums, featuring what you can consider the film OST, songs, as well as sometimes dialogs form the film. Along with that, there have always been what we call Private albums, which are what in the west are called albums. They are usually around similar themes or similar style of music, and can features single or multiple artists. But we didn't have the 'featuring' concept.

Please react to Tera suroor, Naam hai tera, and other songs of himesh Reshammiya, ❤️❤️ plzz

Albums by Singers do exist or at least they existed till the decade of 2000. Now it's more the era of releasing song on RU-vid as a Single. Sonu Nigam has had multiple "Non-film Album Hits" from late 1990s to 2000s decade. His Albums "Deewana" and "Yaad" need to be especially checked out. In fact 90s and 2000s was the Golden Era for Non Film music quality and singers. Kumar Sanu, Abhijeet, Adnan Sami and countless others have had their own multiple hit non Film albums then.

The movie Aashiqui in 1990 was a hit mainly because of its music. There were two rank newcomers, which ordinarily would mean very low footfall in theatres, but the songs were so popular that people flocked to theatres back then. Anyone who was in love or had their heart broken would be listening to the songs. Kumar Sanu became very popular because of the songs of Aashiqui. Aashiqui 2, while good in terms of music, was nowhere, not even a fraction of the popularity of the music in Aashiqui.

First five albums were lit🔥

You guys should do videos where you review each of these albums in each video..... That means one separate video for each album mentioned in this list..... It'll be great and also give you some idea about Indian movies from the 90's...... ♥️♥️

In olden days the same singers used sing for perticular artist in whole movie later as time passes from 90s it changed

Himesh Reshammiya Sir And Emraan Hashmi Ruling Era Together From (2005) , (2006) , And (2007) . 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Yes some Singers do have Individual albums mostly on the onset of their careers but mostly yes,movie albums

2. Certain playback singer's voices suit certain actors and they get selected Sometimes the mood of the song will be the reason for the singer being selected, and sometimes it's the rapport between the music composer and singer that cements the choice. Film makers like S L Bhansali, Karan Johar have a big say in the music for their film

Pardesi song is that still pops up anytime on RU-vid trending ...you often see it there

If Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham didn't exist then Hum Aapke Hai Kaun would be my favourite Bollywood movie ever. Even if I can't stand to watch the last third of the movie most times.

i saw an interview of one of the current trend sigers who said that, back in the day singers were not paid by labels, it was something like they used your name on the album now go make your money by doing concerts, and things are changing now.

most of the bestselling albums are from 90's-00's because of physical album sales like casettes and cds. just like in the west the "streaming era" has largely affected physical sales leading to the decline of album sales as a whole bc barely anyone buys physical albums or even digital albums these days bc everything is readily available on streaming platforms.

do a request a podcast on atleast 90s, 50-70s, and react to ScoopWhoop: 60 Years Of Bollywood In 4 Chords..they did amazing compilation, in description named all 35 songs they included

It was deepika bro.. u missed this time 😜😜😜😜... & kindly react on S P BALASUBRAMANIUM sir..

The structure you saw at 14:24 is a "mini temple" you can call and people there light Deepak(candle) every evening as worshipping the god.

No doubt all the albums are my favorite but I came to see you guys. Lots of love.. !!

"Same singer stick to the character" Yes it used to be that way till 2010

I love Indian music. It's really fun.

I don't know much, but I think in 90s there used to be "album" culture and I saw few albums of Sonu Nigam. My fav would be Diwana

Amitabh bachchan (actor) performed at Wembley STADIUM in the early 90s. I believe 80-90 thousand people attended … he did a big show with other people performing songs from his movies

Yes... During 90s a singer use to stick to the character.. Cause it was a belief and a correct one I feel when u r representing a character on screen his/her voice cannot change for every song na... Because of this singers like Alka Yagnik and Lata, Kumar, Udit etc have dominated the industry cause they were the once who could fit for any song... And those days competition was was there but not that much because the recording style was not so advanced... A singer has to sing live everything.. In one go u know.... Henceforth only few singers survived like Lata Alka etc.. Hope it was helpful..

In India we do have album like album but most of the albums are from movie. Most of the best single albums are from 90's-early 2000's time now a days most famous albums are just high budget shits, but underrated are awesome ,it's like we have to find the good ones.

Waleska, at 18:27 that is, indeed, Deepika! Good recognising her, i didn't even know she was in that video until a few months ago 😂

Himesh Reshammiya is a Hit machine at that time ❤❤❤

Now, you guys need to check every movie album from 2000s.
