On the other hand, for the new generation of popsters, patriotic numbers are there either to bag advertisements, fulfill their commitment to sponsors, get good reviews for their albums or just because it's a norm to have at least one Pakistan song in their album to fulfill a sense of duty. Our older generation didn't care about sponsors and advertisements, had no lust for jam-packed concerts, was least worried about the success or failure of music albums and was dedicated to quality stuff. In bell-bottoms or Shehnaz Begum rendering Sohni Dharti Allah Rakhay and Jeevay, Jeevay Pakistan? The songs were made by those who worshipped Pakistan and their work spoke volumes of their patriotism and passion for music, the financial aspect of the whole deal not even making it to third place. Who can forget Mohammad Ali Shyhaki singing Main Bhi Pakistan Hoon. It was the spirit of the dedicated musicians the altruistic vocals of the singers and the philanthropic lyrics of the poets that thrilled, enticed and pleased music lovers all through the '60s, '70s and the '80s.
The song has intolerable backing vocals, excessive use of guitars, sub-standard vocals and above all, uninspiring lyrics.
