very well said Taimur......exactly nowadays the "sweetness" is missing..just one or two song succeeds and tops the charts...but the recent albums of ARR's lacks something(IMHO)....as you said ,i too want ARR to explore,but the recent albums espescially ghajini,blue are totally a disaster...and Jaane tu ,yuvraaj & JA were good...delhi-6 was the best and different.....excellent....Raavan is good..but i wont think after the next release of ARR,i think i wont be listening to Raavan anymore......am listening and able to grasp his genious...but still.....i agree with Taimur in most of the points....

O DINESH so overwhelmed by your replies its so nice of you , you are defending me like a wall i am completely humbled by you. i have no words for your generous attitude i have reading all the threads well pratap was completely with me , kishore parayath said it a disaster , and there were many who contradicted, which i equally accept . but there are some points to be cleared . i never said A R RAHMAN should keep repeating the same sound , he must explore new sounds i love A R RAHMAN because of his creativity , the second name of art is creativity. but i am unable to grasp any creativity in RAAVAN or earlier films . i dont know why his tunes has become simpler almost its ABCD stuff . no swirls no high and lows no complexity. and the most important SWEETNESS is completely missing nowadays. i want A R RAHMAN to supercede his previous works , but no masterpiece is coming for years now.For me music is beautiful sounds , and A R RAHMAN is bestowed WITH THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SOUNDS IN THE UNIVERSE , but for years i havent heard a beautiful sound comng out OF A R RAHMAN music. And remember guys whenever A R RAHMAN will be introduced to anyone his works in DIL SE , THIRUDA THIRUDA , TAAL, ALAIPAYUTHE, SAPNAY will be called not ghajini yuvraaj dilli 6 or ada what to say about blue, the above mentioned albums are 10to 15 years old but they are superior in every sense in music , in arrangements in sound quality and in tunes they all were MASTERPIECES. i know the midas touch will be back in A R RAHMAN one day, he will be glorified yet again and i will proudly say to my fellows listen this sound DOESNT IT MESMERIZES YOU ISNT IT EXTRAORDINARY ISNT IT just out of the world ITS my A R RAHMAN the greatest ever... right now listening to nathaswaram interlude in AMMI MITHCHCHACHI ah what a scintillating feeling just great the drum work in background my goodness its midas touch .. regards, taimur --- On Sun, 4/25/10, Dinesh Scaran <dinesh.scaran@ hotmail.com> wrote: >From: Dinesh Scaran <dinesh.scaran@ hotmail.com> >Subject: [arr] Re: 5 years have passed... its drought - I've had it!!!!!! >To: arrahmanfans@ yahoogroups. com >Date: Sunday, April 25, 2010, 3:38 AM > > > >The Tamil version will sound better, no doubt.
