words of wisdom

Praise the GURU! and BOW DOWN thats all I can say! I am not syaing Mani ratnam or Abhishek Bachan or the Ambani… ITS A R RAHMAN! I think hes the GURU in thsi movie! WHAT A MASTERPIECE ! what a vareity of songs each with its indivduality at its BEST! SPLENDID WORK
Now indiavidual report lolz! Ithu thevaya? well jst my opinions which i would say NOTHIGN IS NEGATIVE!

Tere Bina- rahman, Chinmayi
MY FAV! man rahmans voice is getting richer by every note he sings…He sounds fresh young! the classical touch to the song makes it such a wonderful musical journey! The vocals humming Dum Tara is simply mind blowing..simple but sweet! Then the string intruments playing after the first part of the song while Rahman sings the svaras is such sophisticated compositions..the instruments suit well with the song and just makes it even better. Then comes my new found love Chinmayi’s voice! She sounds very different and unique eventhough she comes for a small part of the song she makes a very lasting impact and sounds so inetersting! great job in singing! Shes one of the few gifted singers these days whos gonan be down music history! The other interesting fact is that eventhoguh the words might sound repetetive they take various variations and experimentations which makes the listener asking for more and you dont get bored of it! ******** out of 5 one word: SPLENDID!

heres a small clip:

Jaage Hain- Chitra, Rahman
I would say this is going to be the next Bombay Theme which is going to make the world stand up and just give its honors to rahman! Starting with the soft nightingale voice of Chitra so quietly yet pasisonately its a sweet charm of mantras chanting! Then slowly the orchestra comes in with its heavy violins man isnt this just enough! And adding on to the texture a chorale group humming at the background. But if u listen closely a cello keeps on playing all through the orchestra and slowly while the orchestra settles down the cellow keeps playing with all its glory man what a sound it makes…just a true maestro composition. The comes the maestro himself lending his voice so deep and low…Never heard he can sing well so low! and there you go He reaches the climax as wellwhich is so pasisonate and makes u want more! Its simply feels liek a National Anthem! Then slowly it build up to the second climax with the orchestra and the choir.. I dont knwo what the song means but It just feels so patriotic and love and honor just listening to this song! This is one of the best compositions of all time I would say… No other than Rahman can do somehtign liek this….i dont kwno what else to say.. One Word: Speechless!

Ay Hairathe- Hariharan, Alka Yagnik
It starts off where Tere Bina leaves you and flows into a totally new song. After a long time we get to hear Hariharan singing a Rahmanic. Again Crisp voice blended with the beats of the tabla is wonderful to hear with its hindustani touch! But wait not only does it have a hindustani touch it also has a 1950’s western touch with its accordians and mouth organs playing( Not sure) . Alka Yagnik does her voice ever get bored of? Noo.still sounds fresh as we first heard her and this song suits her well! A very inetersting compositions. One word: Sing Along!

Baazi Laga- Bhargavee, Madhushree, Swetha, Udit Narayan
Oo such a great dance number! With its own touch of humor within is. I am dancing just writing this review what do you expect me to do when I listen to it? But sounds typical Hindi song style mixed with some inetersting twists inbetween. Such a fun song that makes u go wild! I really like the beats of the song. I think thsi is where Mallika Sherawat dances cant wait to see her body move for a rahmanic! She doesnt need to do anythgin the song will do everything! One word: DANCEEEEEEEEE!

The other songs Mayya with its arabic flavour, Barso with Madhushrees sweet voice and Ek Muft are still awaiting to grow on me! I am sure ocne they get into me even rehabs wont be able to get me over it! Cant wait to get addicted! SO guys get your butts off the couch and eyes off the computer screen and go get the CD NOW!
