I Want The Slumdog Millionaire Soundtrack Now Last week I saw Slumdog Millionaire, and it was incredible. I do not say that very often about movies, and am not a film buff by any means. But I think if I did and I was, I would still say it about this one. Not only was the film incredible, but so was the music. The soundtrack (which does not yet exist in the consumer sense) features an original score of songs by AR Rehman. Rehman has written and/or sang pretty much all of the great Bollywood songs in recent years (including one of my favs from Dil Se ). That just reminded me; Ive never seen the end of Om Shanti Om.
Anyway, since seeing Slumdog Millionaire, I have been trying to track down the song O Saya. It was towards the beginning of the film and featured M.I.A. on vocals along with Rehman. Its effing great. I read about the song on Pitchfork the day after, and began scouring the internet for the song (and finally found at least a tracklisting on Yahoo Movies). All I could manage to find was this clip from the film on Youtube featuring O Saya, and I hope it is enough to convey the shear incredibleness. M.I.A. is not featured in this clip, but if i track down the full mp3, I will post it with the quickness! I would tell you to see this movie simply to hear this song, but I think you shold see it anyway. http://mypoproks.com/2008/11/18/i-want-the-slumdog-millionaire-soundtrack-now/
