''Aadat'' is a 2004 studio album by the Pakistani band Jal. The album features three bonus tracks (Dr. Zeus & Kais Mix) and has an exclusive bonus VCD with all Jal videos. Copyright dispute Atif Aslam released his debut solo album '' Jal Pari'' after he left the band, which included some songs from ''Aadat'': "Lamhey" (titled as "Bheegi Yaadein" on ''Jal Pari''), "Dil Haarey" (titled as "Ankhon Se" on ''Jal Pari'') and "Rangon Mein" (titled as "Zindagi" on ''Jal Pari''). This led to a dispute between Aslam and Jal about who owned the rights to the songs, as Mumtaz took the dispute to court.

However, Aslam was prohibited from using Jal's name and performing the disputed songs. Aslam went on to sing the same songs in India, in fact copying the exact tune of "Woh Lamhey" for the Indian movie ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Rock Music
Rock music is a broad genre of popular music that originated as " rock and roll" in the United States in the late 1940s and early 1950s, developing into a range of different styles in the mid-1960s and later, particularly in the United States and United Kingdom.W. E. Studwell and D. F. Lonergan, ''The Classic Rock and Roll Reader: Rock Music from its Beginnings to the mid-1970s'' (Abingdon: Routledge, 1999), p.xi It has its roots in 1940s and 1950s rock and roll, a style that drew directly from the blues and rhythm and blues genres of African-American music and from country music.

Pop Rock
Pop rock (also typeset as pop/rock) is a fusion genre with an emphasis on professional songwriting and recording craft, and less emphasis on attitude than rock music. Originating in the late 1950s as an alternative to normal rock and roll, early pop rock was influenced by the beat, arrangements, and original style of rock and roll (and sometimes doo-wop). It may be viewed as a distinct genre field rather than music that overlaps with pop and rock. The detractors of pop rock often deride it as a slick, commercial product and less authentic than rock music. Characteristics and etymology Much pop and rock music has been very similar in sound, instrumentation and even lyrical content. The terms "pop rock" and "power pop" have been used to describe more commercially successful music that uses elements from, or the form of, rock music. Writer Johan Fornas views pop/rock as "one single, continuous genre field", rather than distinct categories. To the authors Larry Starr and Chri ...
