all these guys...i mean ALL OF THEM.. miss an important point..Rahman did'nt sing Vande Mataram of Bankim Chandra chaterjee . Rahman used 'vande mataram' a generic sanskrit word and sang an ALL TOGETHER DIFFERENT song!!
and as a tribute he included not 1 but 2 versions of the original tune...i mean how else can a guy be clean. Even in Dil Se, since chaiya chaiya was inspired by baba bulleh shah's poetry, rahman included a separate track of the original poetry ( although the lyics were slightly changed The old composers have done some great work, but they didnt come in outright praise of rahman in public..which is sad! regards wb Remixes I Originals I Opinions at http://www.wiredbeats.com ________________________________ From: balajirajagopal <balajirajago...@yahoo.com> To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com Sent: Mon, 12 April, 2010 8:34:29 AM Subject: [arr] Re: 'That's not the way to sing Vande Mataram' *Sigh*...wont this subject ever go away.
