Tum Kaho (literal English translation: If You Say So) is a Pop Rock song by the band SYMT. It is completely different from other Coke Studio songs as it is a new and original work.[1]
Overview
Tum Kaho is one of the band’s original songs, and has not been released yet. The music was composed and arranged by SYMT guitarist Hasan Omer who worked out the structure and gave it to lead singer Haroon Shahid to compose the melody and lyrics.
Shahid says Tum Kaho represents the initial feelings of attraction and interest for someone. The lyrics were inspired by the idea of starting a romantic relationship with a person by confessing their interest for her.[2]
Lux Style Awards was the first place where SYMT had performed this song.
Coke Studio
It is one of the two songs SYMT has made for Coke Studio Season 5,the other is Koi Labda.[3]
Reception
Audience reception was really good,it was liked especially by teenagers,however critical reception was mixed. Rafay Mehmood of Express Tribune said : Tum Kaho, despite being a sweet, mellow number wasn’t worthy of being featured in Coke Studio.[4]
