Waqt Gaya Thum Sad - Fredrick by KK

Waqt Gaya Thum Sad - Fredrick arrived from the Fredrick album and quickly became one of the most replayed tracks of 2016. Credit goes to Sunjoy Bose for a score that understands exactly what the song needs and nothing more.

In 3:54 minutes, Waqt Gaya Thum Sad - Fredrick builds, opens up, and resolves in a way that feels complete rather than truncated. It is, at the end of it, a very good song — and sometimes that is the only explanation that matters.
