I guess so ... the airwaves in US ( let me not generalize .. atleast in the west coast ) - almost all of the FM Channels have been talking and playing SDM songs ....
my whole class ( batch of 50 ) have bought the album in iTunes... quite a few have started looking for more from ARR. another pleasant thing about the radio attention for SDM is / was one of the RJ today had a lovely comment which goes something like " when a composer releases an album , based on the genre of the song , a particular channel that specialises in it ( rock / slow rock , r&b , soul etc..) pick it up and promote it and give it all the air time and love as per their liking .. with AR Rahman , everybody wants a piece of the action because every one of these songs are so different and so good that it is going to AR Rahman domination till the oscar fever settles ... " from the 6 -8 stations me and frds frequent ..."o Saya" , " Jai Ho " ( of course) , "Mausam " and "Liquid dance" are getting their share of air time ... Jai ho tops the list ... followed by o saya ..... of course my observation is not substantiated by any stats , but just a passing note of a fan :) On Thu, Jan 22, 2009 at 7:58 PM, Chord <purev...@yahoo.com> wrote: > Does anyone anticipate sales of other ARR CDs going way up with all > the attention he has been getting with Slumdog?
