Laili Jaan – Zeb and Haniya (Coke Studio Season 6, Episode 1)
This Season In Coke Studio – Zeb & Haniya take on the song as an ode to Ahmad Zahir as well as re-imagining the song through the female perspective of a song sung by a man.
The song is reminiscent of a time where the rich tunes of Afghan music prevailed in various parts of the world and had become a huge part of growing up in cities like Peshawar – something Zeb and Haniya remember fondly from their childhood days. Flash forward to 2013 and the duo bring to the song a gypsy feel that is complemented by the instrumentation performed by L’Orchestra di Piazza Vittorio – a modern sound that meets the tone of rhythm and blues with an added layer of jazz.
