*Hey Guys,*
*
*
*This whole CWG theme songs fiasco has been really getting my blood boil.
This is my 2cents worth.*
*
*
*
*
*Here is a group of politicians who are known to be corrupt to the bone. I
am generalizing here. I am an Indian living in Australia. I am proud of
being Indian. BUT, I cannot stand the corruption that goes on in India. One
of the main reasons for me to leave India was the corruption there. Not
saying that there is no corruption anywhere else but there is so much of it
in India and we all know it but no one does anything about it. It is great
to see a hero in a movie killing all sorts of weeds in our government but in
reality there is no one stopping the weeds entering the government *
*
*
*The CWG anthem in absolutely brilliant. I loved it and can't get enough of
it. The only reason for finding faults with A.R.Rahman is to divert the
focus from the politicians corruption scandals. For the people who have a
problem with the money paid to Rahman.... I am sorry he deserves every **
paise. There is no other musician who could have come up with a better
compositions. That is the plain truth. This is really making my blood boil
to a point where I feel like calling a press conference and putting thing
forward to the bloody media and asking them the questions about where are
their compositions and which one of them have had even 2 days of music
lessons for them to make such claims and bring it out as headlines. *
*
*
*If there was someone from this group who could help me voice our support
and bring the corrupt politicians to the limelight I will be happy to
support and will come back to my motherland India. India is a great country
and would be even better if we had been governed by clean politicians. There
are a few great, highly educated politicians who would make great leaders
but they are all sidelined so that the greedy, uneducated scum could rule a
great country only to drag it to their standards. *
*
*
*I guess our politicians enjoyed the Shakira song only because of all the
skin shown. Guess they were looking only at the video (I personally think
they wouldn't have understood the lyrics.. hahaha....) Sorry couldn't help
putting that in! I really liked Wakka Wakka for the brilliant composition,
the beats, rhythm and also the dance in the video was great! As I read in
one of the topics Wakka wakka was made for the biggest sporting event in the
world. It had to be publicized they it was. *
*
*
*Another thing I wanted to point out was that, a 99% of these self
proclaimed music critics said that the words of the CWG theme wasn't what
they had expected, now what does the lyrics have to do with A.R.Rahman. If
the words are not in sync with the event you criticize the lyricist and not
the composer. I hope **these self proclaimed music critics do know what the
difference is between the lyrics and the music of a song. *
*
*
*I am sorry for a lengthy email but I had to put all my feelings into words!
Will India ever become a corrupt free country? Will there be a day when all
the politicians will say that they don't accept bribes and actually be
saying the truth? I hope we as a group can bring about this change and make
A.R.Rahman sir be proud of fans like all of us. We are a group of 16231
members even if we just try and get a few people to change and create a
domino effect we could change our great country and make it better than any
other place in the world and be known for something great other than a land
of call centers. Hope we can do this and make A.R.Rahman's and our dreams of
a great India come true. *
*
*
*God Bless you our A.R.Rahman sir and all of us his fans. *
*
*
*TAKE CARE! *
*
*
*Regards,*
*
