उड़ जाएगा हंस अकेला....

This piece of music has been haunting me for quite some time now. Very thought provoking words by saint Kabir and excellent rendition by Pt. Kumar Gandharva!! I found myself swaying over the rhythm even when I am not listening to it.

 

Now there could be a question why this is finding a place on "The Hacker's Blog". The "Hacker" mindset is not just confined to the software industry. Many people apply this "Hacking" attitude to other areas like Music. And Pt. Kumar Gandharva, IMHO, would definitely find a place near top of the hackers' list in Music. He overcame the odds against severe physical limitations as well as criticism by experts to perform some very nifty experiments with his singing style.
