Musician Adnan Sami, who was not seen on the music scene for some time, says that he was on a much needed break. “When you are constantly working, it is very important that every artist takes some time off to refresh and reboot themselves,” he said. The 39-year-old says every singer must take some time off to refuel himself. “I just took off for some time to absorb and to refuel. Now that I have done that, I have taken on few film projects as a composer,” he added. He also feels one should collaborate with other artists too as it helps in enhancing musical knowledge. He himself collaborated with singers like Asha Bhosle, Zakir Hussain and international artist Jermaine Jackson in the past. Talking about the trend of using meaningless lyrics in songs, he feels that the demand and taste of listeners cannot be ignored. “I completely value the use of meaningful lyrics and ability of telling a story, but sometimes when I am composing music and doing my music, words don`t make any sense to me either. “I am very excited about it because with the album, I am both singing and composing a Punjabi and Sufi track for the first time. “There are romantic and fun tracks. So there is a whole bunch that I have got into. I have nurtured and savoured the experience of making a whole lot of album,” he said.
