"I think it also puts on a question mark on the credibility of this group"
I diagree with this 100%. Differing opinions don't discredit a group, but merely enhance it. "then we can't hide from the fact that other people might be looking at this group to get authentic feedback on the "goodness" of his songs, and all those got misguided by this group's endless advertising Chiggy Wiggy and entire bullu." There is nothing wrong in expressing praise and enthusiasm for a song that one likes, even if many others don't like it. People have different opinions and that is that. Nobody is forcing anyone to like or dislike the song. "The reason might be: We fans might like anything given by our man because we love our man. It is normal human psychology. We might have convinced ourselves that we are liking Chiggy Wiggy or blue on some strengths it has while ignoring some down points it is having." Yes, good point. We must try not to be blind fans and critical analysis is always good up to a point. However, if someone expresses like a for a song that many dislike, let it be. Why challenge someone's opinion? I have learned this lesson too. If you like Chiggy Wiggy, then you like it. Whether a song has up points or down points is up to you. THat's the nature of music. One man's noise may be another man's symphony. "I hope members will learn from this and will try to be more objective in giving their future reviews/ feedbacks on future releases of ARR. Remember, wrong feebacks in this group must be presenting a wrong picture about a song/ album to ARR himself if he is accessing the group. ARR needs truth. Underved praising will harm ARR. Let's not only utter Satyamev Jayate, but also practice it." We are hear to express our thoughts and feelings about ARR's music. What is true to some may not be true to others. If one likes a song that you don't like, it doesn't make him or her bad, wrong, or giving ARR bad feedback. When it comes down to the quality of a song, there is no "truth", but only taste, preference, and opinion. Yes, there can be a large consensus about how a song is liked or disliked, but ultimately, we all have different perceptions and we should leave it at that. Now, when it comes to things like sound quality and technical matters, then yes, there is such a thing as objectivity here and ARR should receive feedback on those points. --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, V S Rawat <vsra...@...> wrote: > > On 10/18/2009 4:51 AM India Time, _Jahanzeb_ wrote: > > > exactly. this is what i have been saying all the time, that Chiggy Wiggy is > > a huge failure of ARR. > > and yes though people didn't agree that it is a "failure" but i don't > > remember anyone calling it a worldclass masterpiece either. > > > > - > > Jahanzeb > > Yup. > > I think it also puts on a question mark on the credibility of this group > itself that several members acted like mouthpieces and kept on praising the > song endlessly and even criticized those who were criticizing the song since > day one.
