Did I come across as being clueless? Perhaps so...but
I happen to like Swades and Bose. In fact, although
they may have earned him bad reviews, they happen to
be favourites of mine, especially Swades.
I had merely meant to bring out the fact, that I felt
that there was an experiment of a new sounds and
styles, which I reckon was more in MP and Ah Ahh,
rather than the previous soundtracks. It is not my
intention to condemn the people who have given their
views to MP.
I think the expectations are different. It is a
different sounding ARR that we are hearing and I for
one am trying to get used to the sound. And as I have
mentioned, I refused to see it as bad. Although that
was my first initial reaction to it on hearing both
the two releases.
I think at the end of the day, both of us have one
thing in common and that would be our undying support
for ARR. Thank you so much for your reply. : )
