All the songs have been created based on the 7notes only.... So, its not surprising for you to find out some similarities...
ps: similarities and copying hv diff meanings.... 2008/5/23 Gomzy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Who knows, he might be doing it unintentionally too.

I wonder when was the last time Sonu got so >> many songs in one album of ARR. TLOBS? This one is a lilting >> melodious duet which is Sonu's forte and he just breezes through >> this one like he has done for ARR in the past. The tune in some >> places reminds you of the duets in TLOBS and Zubeidaa. The flute in >> the interludes give the song more haunting feel to it. Super, again! >> >> Ishq Ada - (Male Version) - Singer: Rashid Ali >> Now comes the masterstroke from the genius. The way the song starts >> gets you into its feel right away. The '70s Beatles' beats that >> plays throughout the song gets you into the groove of the song. The >> tune is a very complex one with many layers to it. ARR started with >> a simple basic tune of the song and tries out various permutations >> and combinations of pitch to it. Pure genius. Rashid Ali's singing >> is a mixed bag for me. His voice is very fresh in some places but >> at many places he gets too nasal to my liking. And thats where he >> sounds like a Adnan Sami clone. The accordion and guitar you get to >> hear is so refreshing which is something thats not well used in many >> songs these days. >> >> Ishq Ada - (Female Version) - Singer: Parul Mishra >> The female version of the previous song with minor variations. Parul >> sounds almost like Shreya in this song except when she sings in high >> pitches. She has done a creditable job for a song with a complex >> tune and has more classical touches to it than the one sung by >> Rashid. The tune has a complex mix of low pitch and high pitch >> singing that keeps switching pretty quickly and I wonder how many >> takes it took for the singers to get it right. >> >> Meherbaan - Singer: ARR >> The song starts off with a piano that you could easily mistake for a >> Richard Marx from 80s. And just when ARR starts singing and you hear >> the acoustic arrangement, you realise the obvious. ARR wanted to do >> a 80s soft rock romantic number ala Richard Marx, Elton John. I >> guess he wanted to do it for a long time and this is his way of >> doing it. A fitting tribute! This is one genre that is still >> evergreen especially for those who were in their teens during mid >> 80s and early 90s and were influenced by that hugely popular soft- >> rock genre. I guess ARR is one such. Having said all that, I noticed >> a similarity with 'Ni Sa Ri Sa...' song from Jeans. Anybody else? >> >> Meherbaan (Instrumental) Guitar: Sanjeev Thomas >> A nice song to pick for an instrumental. This would make for a great >> BGM if used well. It can easily pass off as music track from Richard >> Marx / Bryan Adams with such great guitar and piano. >> >> Milo Wahan Wahan Singers: Alka Yagnik & Jayachandran >> Everybody said it and I'll say it again. The song starts off with >> the BGM piece that Rahman used it in the climax of Kannathil >> Muthamitaal (2002 was the time he was scoring for both the movies, >> perhaps). This one is a sad melodious duet between Alka and >> Jayachandran. It is so good to hear jayachandran again after a long >> time and you wonder how he could have been used all this time. The >> humming that Alka does reminds you of 'Evano Oruvan' from >> Alaipaayudhey. ARR right from 'Bombay' has weaved magic with violin >> orchestra when he had to convey a tinge of sadness in the song and >> you can hear that here as well. >> >> Tu Mera Hai - Singers: Chitra, Sukhwinder Singh & Naresh Iyer >> Chitra still sounds the same as she did in Thiruda Thiruda. The song >> has quite a lot of traces of Rangeela and Pukar and those late 90s >> of ARR. Sukhwinder and Chitra is quite a combo for this song for >> their contrasting voices (like Chitra with Daler for RDB). I am not >> sure where Naresh Iyer figures in the song. A throwback to ARR of >> 90s. >> >> Overall it is a very good album though there are numbers like Tu >> Mera Hai, Gulfisha, Gum Sum that gives away the fact that the album >> was done more than 5 years back. Ishq Ada is the experimental track >> and is way ahead of times. It takes the credit of my 'Song of the >> Album' and that along with 'Meherbaan' is my 2 picks of the album. >> >> >> ------------------------------ >> Bring your gang together. Do your thing.
