On #WorldMusicDay, some of India’s most beloved singers enthralled their fans on Twitter using voice Tweets. Armaan Malik (@ArmaanMalik22), Shilpa Rao (@shilparao11), Jonita Gandhi (@jonitamusic), Guru Randhawa (@GuruOfficial), Shirley Setia (@ShirleySetia), and Jassie Gill (@jassiegill) Tweeted out a song each using #MoodSongs to share what they are feeling. They also encouraged their fans to Tweet their #MoodSongs.
Twitter recently introduced voice Tweets experiment to test a new way to start a conversation. On iOS, people can now Tweet with their voice by following a few simple steps: hit compose Tweet, record audio, and attach it to the Tweet, that’s it. This new test allows people to create a more human experience. Singer John Legend (@johnlegend) was one of the early adopters of the feature and soon after its launch shared a sneak preview of his new song, U Move, I Move.

Today, Armaan Malik (@ArmaanMalik22), who recently released his debut English single Control, crooned a few lines from his latest song Next 2 Me.
We may have all the devices in the world to keep us connected, but having that person next to you is a different feeling altogether, something that no digital connection can ever compare to and this song perfectly sums it up! #MoodSongs #WorldMusicDay #Next2Me pic.twitter.com/2Vz233HYrO

Commenting on the activity, Armaan Malik said, “Music has always been such a great emotional outlet for me and I’ve always been in awe of its power to connect the world, especially when the going is tough. On World Music Day, I’m looking forward to connecting with my fans on Twitter, sharing my feelings and singing my #MoodSongs - and hearing theirs. Twitter has been an important source of connectivity and solidarity in recent times and I’m happy for the opportunity to contribute to that feeling of togetherness and hope.”
Shilpa Rao (@shilparao11), who’s lent her voice to Ghungroo, Bulleya and many other hits, sang Dashte Tanhai in her melodious voice for Twitter music enthusiasts.

These last few months have been full of ups and downs. ‘dusk stories’ was born from the emotions @sanjoyd and I have been feeling. I’ve been feeling a mix of uncertainty, calmness and a lot in between. ‘dusk stories’ sums it all up. #moodsongs #WorldMusicDay @TwitterIndia pic.twitter.com/SMzm4M878C
