His wanderlust has taken him to far off places, and his songs are an honest account of his travels, experiences and the inner self.
Nomad, vagabond, call him whatever you may, but Lucky Ali is proud to be the way he is and is on the verge of presenting another soul stealer 'Aks' (Reflections).
To be released under Sony Music, 'Aks', true to Lucky's distinct musical style, packs in plenty of exploring themes of freedom, love, hope, and wanderings. Once more Lucky has summed up his experiences in his lyrics, and rendered them in his gentle and mellifluous voice that acts like a balm to the ears jaded by trite lyrics and forgettable presentations of Indipop.
What sets Lucky Ali apart from his contemporaries is the striking simplicity of his soulful music and lucid lyrics that has an instant rejuvenating effect on a listener. His songs are poignant ballads of love, travels, hope, friendship and his own humble self.
Of late, Lucky Ali has been gradually moving towards playback singing. The two songs he sang in Kaho Na Pyar Hai-- 'Ek pal ka jeena' and 'Kyon chalti hai pawan'-- are still hummed for their enthralling charm and magic.
Just like his songs his music videos too focus on the traveler within him. While in one video from his first album 'Sunoh' he is on his quest to self-discovery amidst Egyptian Pyramids, in another video he is seen traversing the American west. This time the gypsy heart took to the carnival streets of Havana in Cuba to shoot the video of 'Tera mera saath', a song from 'Aks'.
Like a true artist, Lucky Ali open-heartedly embraces self-discovery and lets it joyously reflect in his music. "My songs are an extension of my personality", says Ali.
His wanderlust has taken him to far off places, and his songs are an honest account of his travels, experiences and the inner self.
