This is a piece of art that is simply unmatched and unparalelled in
its purity and divine beauty. To me, this is ARR totally unleashed,
totally unrestrained, totally revealing his heart and soul. Rahman
and his music are a GIFT from God. The compositional pieces in this
album are very meditative, classical, delicate, exquisite,
mesmerizing, haunting, moving. Actually, you cannot use mere words
to describe an album like this. It's not an album to be described,
it's an album to be experienced and cherished for eons.
I am saddened by the botched up way this album has leaked out and
already received reviews. ARR has poured his heart and soul into
this one without any constraints and a review like the one from
Karthik's milliblog, just glossing over the album without a second
thought, even skipping some tracks, to me is almost disrespectful to
an album as divine as this. Now, I know Karthik didn't mean to sound
disrespectful; he's just providing his opinion based on a cursory
listen. And this is only my opinion. Yes, it's a commercial album
so reviews will be there. But beyond the commercial packaging, this
is a collection of musical expressions straight from the heart and
soul that should not be subjected to a 100 word review IMHO.
I wish this CD could have a proper release. It should release sooner
than later to minimize the effects of piracy. You just don't hear an
album as pure as this anywhere. Yes, I too have listened online, but
I plan to buy multiple copies of this CD (for family and friends)
once it releases. Piracy is bad, but esp. for an album as devotional
and divine as this one, it's really sad.
Listening to parts of Connections had my eyes watering up at times.
After listening to the tracks, I felt that my mind, heart and soul
were cleansed. I carry these melodies with me all day and listening
to a divine album like this only reaffirms my faith in the goodness
that surrounds us and the divinity that is within us. I can't
believe how simply pure this album sounds and to me this album more
than any other album from the past, reveals ARR's spirit, his divine
innocence and his strong connection to God.
When you buy this CD, cherish it. Experience the divinity within
it. What a gift from ARR. I BOW TO THEE!!!!!!!
