People comment that this is the soft side of Brett Lee and they say he is not so aggressive a musician as a fast bowler. He's got what it takes for success. You have seen and read about Brett Lee in action, now see him in action again in a different limelight. Nice transition. Cheers !!!
See the video of Brett Lee on YouTube-Brett Lee (singer,composer,musician,cricketer) Brett Lee to launch music album in India Mon Apr 9, 2007 8:33am EDT NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Australian cricket star Brett Lee will release a music album in India by the end of this year, the fast bowler said on Monday. I have written three or four new tracks and my aim is to release an album over here by this year, Lee said during a news conference in the Indian capital. Lee had earlier written and sung a romantic duet You're The One For Me in which he performed with the widely popular Bollywood singer Asha Bhosle. The song, which was partly in Hindi, was about a Westerner trying to woo an Indian beauty and climbed to number three at one time on the music charts of a popular radio station. I have been into music for the last eight to ten years. Music for me is a pretty important part of my life, he said. Lee, who plays in the band Six & Out has also been offered roles in Bollywood films. He said he was looking forward to his dream Bollywood debut provided he receives the right script. Definitely my aim is to star in a Bollywood movie but it has to be in a right time but it definitely will happen, he said. Brett Lee's Hindi album zooms up Indian charts Thu Jan 11, 2007 10:43pm EST MUMBAI (Reuters) - A lilting romantic duet written and sung by blond Australian cricket star Brett Lee has climbed to number three on the Indian charts, the album's composer said. Lee wrote the lyrics of You're The One For Me -- which he performs with legendary Bollywood singer Asha Bhosle -- in 30 minutes after a cricket practice session with his team during the Champions Trophy tournament in India in November. The song, partly in Hindi, is about a Westerner trying to woo an Indian beauty. The song's video, shot in under three hours, has Lee playing guitar and singing to an Indian girl working in an office. We had a great time recording the music, composer Samir Tandon told Reuters. As a musician he is nothing like the aggressive fast bowler that he is on the field. He is extremely polite. The song climbed to number three this week on the music charts of popular FM station Radio City, which broadcasts in several Indian cities. The song, in which Lee speaks a smattering of Hindi as well, figured in the top four of many newspaper and magazine rankings as well, Tandon said. Lee has reportedly said recording the song with Bhosle was an amazing experience, calling the Indian singer, who has sung some 13,000 numbers, the Aretha Franklin of India. For Bhosle, it was not only a chance to meet a famous cricketer but one with a knowledge of music. My family has always followed cricket avidly, so recording with Brett Lee was exciting, Bhosle told Reuters. He is a charming person. For decades Bhosle, and her more illustrious sister Lata Mangeshkar, have captivated the imagination of music lovers in India, rendering thousands of hit songs for Bollywood and other Indian language films. Lee, who plays in the band Six & Out with former New South Wales state teammates, has also been offered roles in Bollywood films, but he has turned them down because of cricket commitments, the Times newspaper reported in London this week. © Thomson Reuters 2008 All rights reserved |
