Jimmy Page

I believe every guitar player inherently has something unique about their playing. They just have to identify what makes them different and develop it.

Bruce Springsteen

When I was growing up, there were two things that were unpopular in my house. One was me, and the other was my guitar.

Richard Thompson

To stand up on a stage alone with an acoustic guitar requires bravery bordering on heroism. Bordering on insanity.

Paul Weller

Everyone gets frustrated and aggressive, and I'd sooner take my aggression out on a guitar than on a person.

Kurt Cobain

I own a '66 Jaguar. That's the guitar I polish, and baby - I refuse to let anyone touch it when I jump into the crowd.

Guitar Chords: Zara Si Dil Me De Jagah Tu - (Jannat - 2008)


Film: JANNAT
Release:
2008
Cast:
Emraan Haashmi, Sonal Chouhan
Lyric:
Sydeed Quadri
Music:
Kamran Ahmed, Pritam Chakraborty
Singer: Krishnakumar Kunnath
Synopsis: Think Emraan Haashmi and think fabulous music in his films. Hits after hits, his movies always gave us many melodious songs. Here comes another from the movie “JANNAT”. Together Pritam, Sayeed Quadri and KK do everything right to make a song which is a sure shot chart buster in the making. One would have expected the next version of the song to be a full on Club mix. However, that’s not the case as it is set as an unplugged edition, KK with just a guitar in background. In fact, this version sounds even better and is worth the price that one may go for it.
