[arr] Yuuvraaj Music Reviews!
Hi Rahmaniacs, I was going through all the emails on Yuuvraaj music. Looks like most of us feel it is below expectations. But for me it is deja-vu. I remember hearing and seeing same reactions after music of Taal was released. Taal among many ARR albums probably took the longest to sink in. As some of the guys have pointed out, just try to give yuuvraaj few more listenings and then you never know, it could turn out to be another Taal or even better. Not to forget in Taal people loved the music even more after seeing the visuals. I guess, Subhash Ghai ensures music is in sync with what he wants to picturize although most of the time it is the other way around - Picturize after getting music. So we usually hope that directors can make justice to ARR's legendary tunes but in Subhash Ghai's case it is ARR who creates music for a visual and i am sure as usual it would have been a cakewalk for him. Sorry if any one felt offended. Happy listening! Take care!. An Avid ARR Fan, Kiran Krishna

What, you guys want Rahman give just like all other composers? Songs thats sounds nice to the ears at the first listening and fades away later? Think again dudes. Give Rahman some time...

Why are you assuming that the Original poster has not heard the original full songs and has rather heard only samples? ANS:- Go read the Original poster's mail. He clearly stated he listened to the samples. AFTER LISTING TO YUVRAAJ SAMPLE MUSIC I AM NOT IMPRESS So before shooting ur reply, READ carefully. No. ARR's music has to reach worldwide. Limiting to the liking of ARR's fans would be a disservice to ARR and to music. ANS: ARR's music has reached worldwide as you can hear them being used in movies and shows of different languages and he has fans across the world, not only Indians but others as well. But its the so called Die hard fans of ARR that starts to criticize his music immed after its release claiming how disappointed they are. Im not syaing he should be limiting his music to the liking of his fans, but rather the fans should stop this kind of emails and take time for the songs to sink in before posting such emails.

Yuvvraaj - Tu Meri Dost Hain 03. Yuvvraaj - Shano Shano 04. Yuvvraaj - Tu Muskura 05. Yuvvraaj - Mastam Mastam 06. Yuvvraaj - Zindagi 07. Yuvvraaj - Dil Ka Rishta 08. Yuvvraaj - Manmohini Morey 09. Yuvvraaj - Shano Remix The soundtrack starts with Salman Khan with the fifth of Beethoven trying to introduce his character in the film. As usual heâs more confusing than ever. Skip it and move to the next track Tu Meri Dost Hain (it is actually Hain and not Hai) which starts off really well. Sung by Banny Dayal and Shreya Goshal, the song is a soothing melody. The next track Shano Shano is a surprise from A.R Rahman. It sucks right from the moment it begins. Tu Muskura by Alka Yagnik and Javed Ali is another soft number. Gulzarâs lyrics are not as extraordinary as they usually are. Mastam Mastam is a typical A.R Rahman melody. It will remind you of Saathiya. Zindagi, the next track, reminds me of Hariharan. Rang De Basanti has a track which could easily be blamed for this song. Skip the next track. Manmohini Mere is my favourite track in the entire soundtrack. It has been sung by Vijay Prakash, a dude I have never heard of before, but he managed to make up for the bad music in the album. A slow yet excellent track. The soundtrack ends with a remix of Shano Shano. The remix is actually better than the original version. On the whole, I really hope the double âVâ and âAâ work for Yuvvraaj. The soundtrack isnât worth the money at all. Except for two tracks, the soundtrack is dull. Subhash Ghai and A.R Rahman have managed to disappoint. Finally! http://harryjerry.com/music/review-yuvvraaj-soundtrack/

Re: [arr] Reverberating Raihanah
You spoke very well Madhavan... In fact Raihannaji was giving you more time to talk, when compared to other celebrities even. Your speech was lengthier than Mr. Tanvir Ahmed 's speech. That goes to say that she liked the way you spoke, and wanted to hear more from you. Good. Congrats ... May more such Rahmaniacs from the groups go to the Radio Show and participate and share their experiences about the Maestro. On Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 2:42 PM, Madhavan Rajan [EMAIL PROTECTED]wrote: I'm not sure if this was posted earlier. In this interview, AR's sister Raihanah talks about AR and the Rahmannia show she is hosting in the name of AR. I participated in her Rahmannia show yesterday and I couldn't see any difference between AR and her, be it the simplicity, or be it the spirituality. It was a wonderful experience that I had yesterday. http://rockandraga.in/blog/2008/06/05/reverberating-raihanah/ Reverberating Raihanah By Sandhyahttp://rockandraga.in/blog/author/sandhya321/ ⋅ June 5, 2008 ⋅ Post a commenthttp://rockandraga.in/blog/2008/06/05/reverberating-raihanah/#comments *The enthusiasm in her voice sure does justice to the `Rahmia` bit she croons over air-waves! Spirited, immensely talented, down-to-earth and extremely friendly- Raihanah will win hands down in the Most Approachable Celebrity category. Unwinding over a cup of tea, here`s what the musician-RJ-singer has to say about life and everything to Sandhya Ramachandran.* http://rockandraga.in/files/2008/06/223200834559am_1.jpg*Sandhya Ramachandran* : Raihanah- an ideal musical name, indeed! Could we be enlightened on its meaning? *Raihanah* : It is not everyone who gets the privilege of naming themselves. When we got converted to Islam, I got this opportunity. I was always fascinated with the name Raihanah-which was the name of a friend`s sister. Its meaning was beautiful-denoting the small scented basil flower. Later I came to know the name had one more meaning. Raihanah was the name given to the first step to heaven! *Sandhya Ramachandran* : How did music become the main vein of your life? *Raihanah* : My interest in music starts from school days. I belonged to the school choir for around 7 years. Rahman and I were enrolled in guitar classes. Rahman used to be great at reading the notes while I was good at picking the music and tune. Our father was a great inspiration to both of us and we grew up in a musical environment.Our tryst with music-learning was put on hold on our father`s demise and there was a point of time when we had to let his instruments for hire! Soon Rahman entered the music field and then as they say, the rest is history!I still continue to learn music as I believe, as a composer and singer, one has to constantly keep a tab on technological improvements and get friendly with the various styles, instruments and flavours of music. *Sandhya Ramachandran* : From music director of `Machchi` and `Aadaadha Aatamellaam`, to a singer of `Malai Malai` to `Ballelakka`- how was the tryst with music till now? *Raihanah* : My involvement with film music began with harmony singing. It was not my ambition to become a composer or singer! It was all providence`s work, I must say! From Funskool crayons ads to devotional songs to film music-I`ve sung harmony for everything and love doing that! When it comes to film singing, Shankar`s assistant Madhesh was present while I was practicing the harmony of `Malai Malai Madhurai Malai`. My base voice impressed him so much that he made me sing the lead with Anuradha Sriram! `Ballelakka` was a result of Shankar`s quest for using a totally different style of singing for the song. He made me try out different styles and in the end chose what one can now hear in the song. Composing was totally a sudden yet inevitable foray! I was the manager of Rahman`s state-of-the-art cassette factory that duplicated cassettes for the market. A colleague there Mr.Boban and I used to have bets as to how many cassettes of a particular album will sell. I`d win every single time with my prediction striking the bull`s eye! Apart from this, I used to find faults with the tune and pick out the best of them also. Seeing this Mr.Boban urged me to start composing. With advertisement jingles for Aala veshtigal, Sri Kumaran Silks(Madurai), Shanthi coconut oil, Suguna motors and the unreleased-Nilgiri`s, I stepped foot into composing. Film music direction happened with `Ninaive`-a yet-to-be-released movie. Machchi and `Aadatha aatamellam` followed. *Sandhya Ramachandran* : Being the sister of a world-famous composer means 2 things- expectations and a shadowed career. How have you been able to cope with both these pressures? *Raihanah* : Expectations are always on a high and my work always tends to get compared with Rahman`s. But I only tend to take this positively and constantly attempt to lift my standards. I am yet to reach my full

[arr] A.R.Rahman isn't a good judge of scripts
A.R.Rahman isn't a good judge of scripts October 16, 2008 I was in the midst of a discussion between two friends talking about Rahman and Yuvan, and this made me to think of one contrasting difference between these composers. When you look at A R Rahman’s career graph, you can’t help noticing that most of his flop movies (not flop songs) are with new directors that he makes music for -recent example, Kala Prabhu’s Sakkarakatti. A sample list of other moderate to flop movies would be: Pudiya Mugam, May Madham, Enakku 20 Unakku 18, Sillunu Oru Kadhal, Udhaya, Parasuram, ATM, and Ratchagan. You will notice that 90 percent of his hit movies are with well established directors or are backed up by strong personalities, such as Aamir Khan for his nephew in Jaane Tu. This is a sharp contrast to someone like Yuvan who is more successful with new comers. And his father, Ilayaraja, has an unprecedented record of hit movies with new comers. The irony is that Rahman's judgment in scripts is not that great; he can connect with his music but I don’t think he has the ability to judge what scripts will work and what will not. If Mani Ratnam, Aamir Khan, and Shankar move on at this point to new music directors, it will at least give Rahman a new bandwidth of newcomers to experiment with. I am not disputing that Rahman has set a benchmark in the industry. However, I would prefer that Rahman try and experiment with more new comers and hone his instinct to connect with new scripts instead of circling back to those five top directors all the time.

[arr] Expect a lot of varied and extreme reactions to Yuvvraaj
Why? Let down expectations and very different musical genre. People have Taal in their mind and when they hear Yuvvraaj, they are somewhat blindsided as the music is totally different from Taal. Yuvvraaj is more subdued, mellow, nuanced, varied, experimental. This genre of music is not for everyone and this album is mostly for the classes. Whenever Rahman experiemnts and brings in a new genre or sound, it's initially met with apprehension and suspicion. This album is definitely a grower unlike Taal, which for many was an instant liker. I hate comparing this album to Taal and I won't beyond this. Again, I applaud Rahman for his boldness and experimental mode here, but wish there were an additional song or two minus Sano that would have launched this album into the super elite category, instead of just the elite category. Interesting how Rahman kept the rhythm tracks fairly simple and straight, while adding a lot of nuanced, complex layers at the same time. Just there were more tabla, dholak, and more ethnic percussion.

Yo guys are so wrong. So so so so wrong. A silent user here. I heared the songs. And i can give this album easily a 5 / 5! This is a total fresh breath! Its new wavew / mello / pure classic mixd in to western beats. The tunes are well formed but still a bit nonchalant..you never know where the lead singer will take you. A. R. Rahman really has done it this time! I love the music...playing with sargams in a western way like he is almost humming it. A. R. Rahman proves that music doesnt have to be perfect. If they all blend together and the ear can bring it through the mindthen why change? I love Dil Ka Rishta cause of the total new taste of modern music. WHile the beat leads the rythm the background strings take you away to another level. The tunes/ chorus are so perfect in harmony. Then u suddenly hear A. R. Rahman's voice doing a nonchalant sargam...AMAZING! And right after that...a classic mind blowing chasing tune! All with all I love the whole album! One of the best of A. R.

Gulzarâs lyrics are not as extraordinary as they usually are. Mastam Mastam is a typical A.R Rahman melody. It will remind you of Saathiya. Zindagi, the next track, reminds me of Hariharan. Rang De Basanti has a track which could easily be blamed for this song. Skip the next track. Manmohini Mere is my favourite track in the entire soundtrack. It has been sung by Vijay Prakash, a dude I have never heard of before, but he managed to make up for the bad music in the album. A slow yet excellent track. The soundtrack ends with a remix of Shano Shano. The remix is actually better than the original version. On the whole, I really hope the double âVâ and âAâ work for Yuvvraaj. The soundtrack isnât worth the money at all. Except for two tracks, the soundtrack is dull. Subhash Ghai and A.R Rahman have managed to disappoint. Finally! http://harryjerry.com/music/review-yuvvraaj-soundtrack/
[arr] Yuvvraaj Roksssss!!!!1
I read evryones opinions about Yuvvraaj's Music. As u all know Boss's music takes time to grow. In my opinion Sir's hard work has paid of great harmony amazing use of strings and technical sounds. Talking bout the songs they are a mixture of western classical and indian classical music. Rahman sir has done an amazing job...thats all i can say.Those who does not have the cd grab it and listen to it peacefully and enjoy some great music. Take care evryone Rahman Sir u Rock
[arr] Reverberating Raihanah
I'm not sure if this was posted earlier. In this interview, AR's sister Raihanah talks about AR and the Rahmannia show she is hosting in the name of AR. I participated in her Rahmannia show yesterday and I couldn't see any difference between AR and her, be it the simplicity, or be it the spirituality. It was a wonderful experience that I had yesterday. http://rockandraga.in/blog/2008/06/05/reverberating-raihanah/ Reverberating Raihanah By Sandhyahttp://rockandraga.in/blog/author/sandhya321/ ⋅ June 5, 2008 ⋅ Post a commenthttp://rockandraga.in/blog/2008/06/05/reverberating-raihanah/#comments *The enthusiasm in her voice sure does justice to the `Rahmia` bit she croons over air-waves! Spirited, immensely talented, down-to-earth and extremely friendly- Raihanah will win hands down in the Most Approachable Celebrity category. Unwinding over a cup of tea, here`s what the musician-RJ-singer has to say about life and everything to Sandhya Ramachandran.* http://rockandraga.in/files/2008/06/223200834559am_1.jpg*Sandhya Ramachandran* : Raihanah- an ideal musical name, indeed! Could we be enlightened on its meaning? *Raihanah* : It is not everyone who gets the privilege of naming themselves. When we got converted to Islam, I got this opportunity. I was always fascinated with the name Raihanah-which was the name of a friend`s sister. Its meaning was beautiful-denoting the small scented basil flower. Later I came to know the name had one more meaning. Raihanah was the name given to the first step to heaven! *Sandhya Ramachandran* : How did music become the main vein of your life? *Raihanah* : My interest in music starts from school days. I belonged to the school choir for around 7 years. Rahman and I were enrolled in guitar classes. Rahman used to be great at reading the notes while I was good at picking the music and tune. Our father was a great inspiration to both of us and we grew up in a musical environment.Our tryst with music-learning was put on hold on our father`s demise and there was a point of time when we had to let his instruments for hire! Soon Rahman entered the music field and then as they say, the rest is history!I still continue to learn music as I believe, as a composer and singer, one has to constantly keep a tab on technological improvements and get friendly with the various styles, instruments and flavours of music. *Sandhya Ramachandran* : From music director of `Machchi` and `Aadaadha Aatamellaam`, to a singer of `Malai Malai` to `Ballelakka`- how was the tryst with music till now? *Raihanah* : My involvement with film music began with harmony singing. It was not my ambition to become a composer or singer! It was all providence`s work, I must say! From Funskool crayons ads to devotional songs to film music-I`ve sung harmony for everything and love doing that! When it comes to film singing, Shankar`s assistant Madhesh was present while I was practicing the harmony of `Malai Malai Madhurai Malai`. My base voice impressed him so much that he made me sing the lead with Anuradha Sriram! `Ballelakka` was a result of Shankar`s quest for using a totally different style of singing for the song. He made me try out different styles and in the end chose what one can now hear in the song. Composing was totally a sudden yet inevitable foray! I was the manager of Rahman`s state-of-the-art cassette factory that duplicated cassettes for the market. A colleague there Mr.Boban and I used to have bets as to how many cassettes of a particular album will sell. I`d win every single time with my prediction striking the bull`s eye! Apart from this, I used to find faults with the tune and pick out the best of them also. Seeing this Mr.Boban urged me to start composing. With advertisement jingles for Aala veshtigal, Sri Kumaran Silks(Madurai), Shanthi coconut oil, Suguna motors and the unreleased-Nilgiri`s, I stepped foot into composing. Film music direction happened with `Ninaive`-a yet-to-be-released movie. Machchi and `Aadatha aatamellam` followed. *Sandhya Ramachandran* : Being the sister of a world-famous composer means 2 things- expectations and a shadowed career. How have you been able to cope with both these pressures? *Raihanah* : Expectations are always on a high and my work always tends to get compared with Rahman`s. But I only tend to take this positively and constantly attempt to lift my standards. I am yet to reach my full potential when it comes to composing and I`m constantly in the quest for higher levels and greater adventures in producing good music! *Sandhya Ramachandran *: You`ve been traveling with Rahman to all his shows till date. How has the experience been? *Raihanah* : It is fun traveling with a crowd that shares the same wavelength. It is like one big family that travel together! Travelling with Rahman is a great experience in itself! The respect and love he commands also embraces us all! *Sandhya Ramachandran :* Your influence on his music. His influences on your
[arr] Re: About Sano Sano
exactly. this song is no less than a noise. and it is first song by ARR perhaps in over 10 years which i actually SKIPPED in first hearing. and that itself says all. there are too many things going in the song, too many singers, too much sano sano and a complete waste of Sonu Nigam. however i gave it more tries and now at least i do not skip it. the only good moment in the song is the 20 seconds between 3:30 to 3:50 where a female singer sings a line, it is magical. there is no comparison with Pappu, Bazi laga etc, this is the weakest song by ARR in many years. period. --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, Chord [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Why Rahman saab, why? I am really liking Yuvvraaj for many reasons, but why did you have to put in a clunker of a song in Sano Sano and that too its remix? This is all Subhash Ghai's doing! I know that many of you will come to this song's defense, saying it's hip, it's hop, it's fast, it's rhythmic. Whatever. To me, it lacks a lot. The only reason that Sano Sano is in this album is to appeal to a certain segment of the masses that like this kind of music. It's a song just to please. It stands out like such a sore thumb compared to the rest of this very classy and non conventional bollywood soundtrack. Who knows, this song may become popular, but will be forgotten just as quick down the road. I'm serious when I say that I can't listen to these two tracks completely without skipping to another song! I like Pappu MUCH MUCH better than this one and even Baazi Laga from Guru is better than this! I was so afraid there would be a song like this in this album and my worst fear came true! That being said, the rest of the songs are REALLY GROWING on me fast and if Sano and its hideous remix sister were removed, this album would be a classic. Oh well, 7/9 is not bad. I really admire Rahman's work in this album given some of the weaknesses I had mentioned earlier. His genius does shine in this album, but it doesn't grab me emotionally like JA did. One I think I did like is that the sound is pretty clean and not muddied outside of the Sano tracks. Even with the hip hop techno beats, they are fairly clean minus the noise factor. Arrangements are just mindblowing.
[arr] Re: My initial Yuvvraaj impressions expanded
well Chord no post could have expressed my feeling better than this post. i will add more.. Main Hoon Yuvvraaj: what a let down and disappointing start of the album. A complete waste with childish and stupid lyrics by Gulzar (what's up with you man), cheap and stupid singing by a cheap and stupid actor. a complete hell waste of Beethoven's piece. if you simply omit his singing, it will be a quite acceptable to start the album with. Main Hoon Yuvvraaj has the credit that it is the WORST ever non-song in an ARR album, a black spot. and i know credit must go to Ghai for forcing this *** on ARR. Tu Meri Dost Hain: some people said rightly here. unfortunately this was the best song of the album. a pretty good song overall, though nothing special or Rahmanish. interludes are nice. did not like ARR's singing though, don't understand what is going with him. Shano Shano: i have already expressed my anger and disappointment with this song in another post. to repeat it here this is first song by ARR perhaps in past 10 years which i SKIPPED in first hearing. this is one of the weakest songs of ARR. again dont understand what went wrong with him. does this type of a song deserved to be in a grand musical like Yuvvraaj?, actually it does not deserve to be in any of ARR's albums. Tu Muskura: Some relief. a good song. more Rahmanish than Tu Meri Dost Hain. its in the league of Milo Wahan Wahan (Ada) and Tu Bin Bataye (RDB) though the the two were better. good singing by Javed and Alka. starts superbly with violen or whatever. Mastam Mastam: An okay song. nothing special. though started to grow on me more. Sonu is superb. Zindagi: A pretty good song. Srinivas sounds like Hariharan. he rocked the song with his perfect singing. vocals are strong but music/melody is minimum (almost absent). Dil Ka Rishta: My favorite of album so far. very nice heavy arrangements. though very long and too much going on in the song. what a waste of Roopkumar, did not notice him after the beginning of song. hard to remember the tune of song, completely agree with Chord. alap by ARR does not impress much. don't know why but boss is not in very good form in this album. Manmohini Meri: Great song. great fusion. best song of the album. the only song which deserved to be in a grand album of ARR-Ghai combo. though unfortunately very short. overall this would be my ranking: Dil ka rishta Manmohini meri Tu muskra Zindagi Tu meri dost hai sorry for any harsh words i used. this only shows my anger and disappointment. i m feeling like deceived. does this album really deserves to be soundtrack of a musical? i don't think so. Taal was absolutely the one. if i give Taal 10/10, Yuvvraaj would be 3/10. some guys here are saying Taal was also not an instant hit and required time to grow. i completely disagree. i fell in love with Taal se Taal, Ishq bina, Ramta jogi, Ishq bina (Western) in the very first hearing. a huge disappointment. my dream of another album of Taal's standard (not Taal 2 btw) is broken for ever. --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, Chord [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I realize it's early and that Rahman's music grows: Pluses: - Great use of symphonic elements like choir, strings with elaborate arrangements and sounds. - Fresh sounding overall. - A bold effort by Rahman - Strong mukhada (asthai, chorus) melodies - Good singing and expressions - Good lyrics - Out of the box creativity shows strongly - Good range and variety - Zindagi is just amazing - Great experimentation with novel fusion (Western musical with Indian classical) - Effort by Rahman shows a lot of courage and hard work in most songs. Minuses: - Some songs with very weak melodies and with overall weak melodies in Antaras (hard to remember the tune of Dil Ka Rishta and Mastam, low hummability) - Shano Shano and its remix to me are a complete waste. One of the worst songs ever by Rahman IMO (many will strongly disagree witih me, I I know). - Some gimmicky elements with too much of Subhash Ghai influence at times - Weak rhythm sections with too much use of light keyboard hip hop rhtyhsms and less of ethnic percussion. The punch is missing. - Lack of any instrumentals - Different genre of music that is thus far foreign to North Indian tastes and may be met with resistance in the beginning. - Large carnatic influence in the music, which is not a bad thing, but again, which Northies may not be used to. That's it for now!

The irony is that Rahman's judgment in scripts is not that great; he can connect with his music but I don’t think he has the ability to judge what scripts will work and what will not. If Mani Ratnam, Aamir Khan, and Shankar move on at this point to new music directors, it will at least give Rahman a new bandwidth of newcomers to experiment with.

Rajeev Menon to direct Abhishek Rajeev Menon, who was basically an ad film maker, is one of the senior ace cinematographers in Indian Cinema. He has also directed the films 'Minsara Kanavu' and 'Kandukondaen Kandukondaen'. Recent buzzes say that he would soon start a Hindi film with Abhishek Bachchan in the lead role. Sources reveal that the movie is a remake of 'Abhimaan', a yesteryear superhit of Amitabh Bachchan. It is said that Rajeev Menon has also asked Amitabh to do a guest role in the film, besides Jaya Bachchan. Rajeev Menon has also cranked the camera for many films, the latest being Mani Ratnam's 'Guru. http://www.indiaglitz.com/channels/hindi/article/42354.html http://www.indiaglitz.com/channels/hindi/article/42354.html Rajiv Menon to dabble in Bollywood again Malayalam director Rajiv Menon, who has made the beautiful Tamil movies Minsaara Kanavu and Kandukondain Kandukondain, is eyeing Bollywood now. It is said that he is all set to make a film with Amitabh Bachchan, a remake of Bachchan's Abhimaan. The proposed film will be made with the name Dhun and guess what? The lead role will be done by Big B's darling son Abhishek Bachchan. Amitabh will also appear in a pivotal role. This is not the first time that Rajiv Menon is entering Bollywood. Earlier, he had remade his Minsaara Kanavu as Sapnay in Hindi, which became an average grosser. Rajiv Menon is a multi-faceted personality who has even tried his hand in acting through the Malayalam film Harikrishnans which had Mammootty and Mohanlal in the lead roles. The film had him in a small but pivotal role by which the handsome director proved that he can also act. He has also wielded the camera for films like Mani Ratnam's Guru which had Abhishek Bachchan in the lead and the very famous Bombay. http://entertainment.oneindia.in/malayalam/top-stories/2008/rajiv-menon-\ dun-abhimaan-161008.html http://entertainment.oneindia.in/malayalam/top-stories/2008/rajiv-menon\ -dun-abhimaan-161008.html -- regards..

[arr] Akon to sing for Rahman
http://www.screenindia.com/news/Yuvraaj--s-music-is-classical--thinks-A-R-Rahman/374101/ A R Rahman is a man of few words and says he gets bored easily, occasionally, even of his own compositions. And he's clearly in the mood for reinvention. Rahman and Phat Phish, an entertainment company have plunged into the reality show brigade with The Big Band and will soon tour 15 cities searching for that one magical group of musicians. Bands in our country are highly underestimated. And if there is one thing that reality shows have succeeded at it's discovering great talent, says Rahman. Formatted as a travelogue, the show will move to neighbouring countries including Sri Lanka, Pakistan and Nepal and is expected to go on air by December on Doordarshan. It's about the content not the channel, insists Rahman. On the personal music front, Rahman has two feature releases— Subhash Ghai's 'Yuvvraaj' and Danny Boyle's 'Slumdog Millionnaire'. Yuvvraaj's music is classical and if you enjoy Beethoven, you'll love this, he says about the Salman Khan-Katrina Kaif starrer. And Slum Dog..? It's about multi-culturalism which is bridging gaps across the globe, says Rahman. But if there's one project that Rahman gets animated about, it is the rap version of the English translation of 'Thirukkural', the classic Tamil work , which he is creating. Rapper Blaaze will be singing it. Akon has expressed interest in singing a Punjabi song and talks are on with his manager. But one has to understand that bhangra is not the only flavour of India, he signs off. Since it's Rahman, point well taken. Cheers, Madhavan.R Be a Music Fan; not a Music Pirate!

Rangeela did grow. Those were initial days of ARR (remember, ARR's first hindi release) and I have not developed full faith on him, and I remember how much disappointed I was on first day's hearing of Rangeela. Whatever effects ARR had used, those didn't reach my mind and ears that were just not trained to look for them. Tanha Tanha sounded so flat, Haay Rama sounded south Indian-ish, kya karein sounded sadak chhap, in ho ja rangeela, the kid's voice pinched in the ears at many higher notes than the rest of soft Asha voice. I had then recently converted to ARR after hearing Urvashi, and I was damn disappointed. But, I didn't give up, and kept on hearing and the beauty of the songs slowly revealed to me and I started liking it a lot. Surprisingly, Mangta Hai Kya is my one of all time fav of ARR.

When you look at A R Rahman’s career graph, you can’t help noticing that most of his flop movies (not flop songs) are with new directors that he makes music for -recent example, Kala Prabhu’s Sakkarakatti. A sample list of other moderate to flop movies would be: Pudiya Mugam, May Madham, Enakku 20 Unakku 18, Sillunu Oru Kadhal, Udhaya, Parasuram, ATM, and Ratchagan. You will notice that 90 percent of his hit movies are with well established directors or are backed up by strong personalities, such as Aamir Khan for his nephew in Jaane Tu. This is a sharp contrast to someone like Yuvan who is more successful with new comers. And his father, Ilayaraja, has an unprecedented record of hit movies with new comers. The irony is that Rahman's judgment in scripts is not that great; he can connect with his music but I don’t think he has the ability to judge what scripts will work and what will not. If Mani Ratnam, Aamir Khan, and Shankar move on at this point to new music directors, it will at least give Rahman a new bandwidth of newcomers to experiment with. I am not disputing that Rahman has set a benchmark in the industry. However, I would prefer that Rahman try and experiment with more new comers and hone his instinct to connect with new scripts instead of circling back to those five top directors all the time.

I am really liking Yuvvraaj for many reasons, but why did you have to put in a clunker of a song in Sano Sano and that too its remix? This is all Subhash Ghai's doing! I know that many of you will come to this song's defense, saying it's hip, it's hop, it's fast, it's rhythmic. Whatever. To me, it lacks a lot. The only reason that Sano Sano is in this album is to appeal to a certain segment of the masses that like this kind of music. It's a song just to please. It stands out like such a sore thumb compared to the rest of this very classy and non conventional bollywood soundtrack. Who knows, this song may become popular, but will be forgotten just as quick down the road. I'm serious when I say that I can't listen to these two tracks completely without skipping to another song! I like Pappu MUCH MUCH better than this one and even Baazi Laga from Guru is better than this! I was so afraid there would be a song like this in this album and my worst fear came true! That being said, the rest of the songs are REALLY GROWING on me fast and if Sano and its hideous remix sister were removed, this album would be a classic. Oh well, 7/9 is not bad. I really admire Rahman's work in this album given some of the weaknesses I had mentioned earlier. His genius does shine in this album, but it doesn't grab me emotionally like JA did. One I think I did like is that the sound is pretty clean and not muddied outside of the Sano tracks. Even with the hip hop techno beats, they are fairly clean minus the noise factor.

[arr] Re: Expect a lot of varied and extreme reactions to Yuvvraaj
I completely agree with the perspective you have shared.. If YUVVRAAJ were to be similar to TAAL, then ARR (and unfortunately fans too) would brand it 'repetitive'..So, ARR has a very narrow margin of comfort. I am totally amazed at how ARR works within this very little margin to work wonders. Truly hats off. --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, Chord [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Why? Let down expectations and very different musical genre. People have Taal in their mind and when they hear Yuvvraaj, they are somewhat blindsided as the music is totally different from Taal. Yuvvraaj is more subdued, mellow, nuanced, varied, experimental. This genre of music is not for everyone and this album is mostly for the classes. Whenever Rahman experiemnts and brings in a new genre or sound, it's initially met with apprehension and suspicion. This album is definitely a grower unlike Taal, which for many was an instant liker. I hate comparing this album to Taal and I won't beyond this. Again, I applaud Rahman for his boldness and experimental mode here, but wish there were an additional song or two minus Sano that would have launched this album into the super elite category, instead of just the elite category. Interesting how Rahman kept the rhythm tracks fairly simple and straight, while adding a lot of nuanced, complex layers at the same time. Just there were more tabla, dholak, and more ethnic percussion.

Hi all This is strictly for the recent quot;criticsquot; in this group. Even atleast one time did u think about the other MDs who was here with ARR? What is the present situation of theirs? Some examples: ANAND-MILIND, NADEEM-SHRAVAN, DILEEPSEN-SAMEERSEN, ANU MALIK, JATIN-LALIT, SANJEEV-DARSHAN, ISMAIL-DARBAR etc.. Why is ARR here like a mountain? Because of his geniusness. Can you show any other MD like ARR who still on the top in the last 16 years? Remember JODHA AKBAR released 2008, not in the 90#39;s. If ARR did albums only for his fans without any variety, will ARR in this industry now? Could we get LAGAAN, JA, JTYJN, RDB, ZUBEIDA, GURU etc.? ARR is changing his style of music from one album to another. We must appreciate it. Iam sure YUVRAAJ will be another turning point in ARR#39;s career. Lets wait and see...

[arr] GOT Yuvvraaj ACD
rocks
[arr] Blogger Review - yuvraj
http://uselessdiary.wordpress.com/2008/10/16/music-of-yuvraaj/ Dear Diary, After a long wait the audio of Yuvraj is out. And i've been listening to the songs like a maniac. 8 hours of listening in the last 16 hours. Thats a personal record. Before i start writing to you about each song, lemme assure you that this is one of Rahmans best and the man never ceases to amaze me. Since this ones a movie based on western classical music, Boss has raised his standards yet again and given us an awesome soundtrack. Okay now, lemme tell you about the songs. ** Tu meri dosth hai:* I have already told you that Benny Dayal is a star, Haven't i? And the man proves that again. He along with Sheraya Ghosal handles this melodious number with elan. This one is a slow, gentle melody which sweeps you off your feet right from the word go. The gentle beats and the Violins take you to a different world. And it only gets better when Boss joins Benny and Shreya for a brief while. The thought that this song is pictured on Salman Khan makes me shudder. *SIGH* What a waste!!! But then, forget the visuals and listen to this masterpiece of a song. ** Mastam mastam:* * * Sonu Nigam Joins Alka and Naresh Iyer in this song which has traces of the Aditya Narayan song from Taal and Smiyay from KK. I guess the backing vocals and the heavy beats in the interludes gives one that feeling. This is a song for all seasons as its fun and frolic and all that stuff or atleast thats what the music suggests :P. Naresh Iyer compliments Sonu perfectly and Sonu sounds like a lotta fun. Nice song, This. *Dil Ka Rishta:* Boy!!! This song is the mother of all experimentations. And it works like a charm :). Western Classical meets Hindusthani meets qawwali meets pop. The song has a complicated structure starting with one genre and flowing into different genres of music as it progresses. And its the orchestration of this song that stands out. A song that only A R R can conceive and compose. Sonu, Roop Kumar, Clinton, Suzanne, Vivianne, Naresh, Benny, Blaaze and Boss are the singers. Sonu Nigam as usual is awesome and he sings with so much ease. Boss does another fateh ali khanish qawwali-sargam in the middle which doesnt fail to bring those goosebumps everytime i listen to the song. An orchestrational wonder. *Manmohini :* Vijay Prakash (yet another find by boss?) sings this semi classical number which is classic in everysense of the word. I dont know why Vijay Prakash reminds me of Hariharan. The Violin bits in the end while he goes Manmohini is nice. I am hooked on to this one currently. Great song. *Tu Muskura :* This ones another melody and a good one at that. The song flows like a river when Alka sings it and then Javed Ali picks it in the middle taking it to another level. A number that will go down as one of the best experimental melodies in the history of Indian Music :). *Zindagi:* Srinivas at the helm of affairs after a long time in Hindi, and what a way to comeback? This one is a slow number that will make you feel weak on your knees while listening. The guitar riffs in the back ground, the haunting interludes and the violins that run through out the song are marks of a genius. Trust Rahman to come up with something as good as this one when he joins hands with Subhash Ghai. *Shano Shano:* A song for the dance floor. Rahman is someone who always experiments with any kind of genre. Remember his classic dappanguthu songs in ATM, if i can call them that? Something that only he can do and here he comes with a classic dance number. Sonu Nigam with a bunch of others sing this classic pappu cant dance saala. And Ember rap joins them in the remix version. To sum the entire album in words, its a Innovative, path breaking, classic masterpiece. And Diary, in the coming days you will hear a lot about these songs as i am sure they are gonna grow on the listeners. The sad part is that this year the competition for the best music director is between Rahman and Rahman :|. Jodha Akbar and Yuvraaj. Lets wait and see which one takes the crown. -- -A http://viewsnmuse.blogspot.com

[arr] Yuvvraaj - Rahmaniacs stay away :-x
Music Review - YUVVRAAJ http://www.loknews.com/2008/10/16/0647/music-review-yuvvraaj/ By Parampreet Singh Sandhu http://www.loknews.com/author/parampreet/ • Oct 16th, 2008 • Category: Entertainmenthttp://www.loknews.com/category/entertainment/ *Music: A. R. Rahman* *Lyrics: Gulzar* YUVVRAAJ started creating buzz as soon as the first teasers started hitting the airways. This is arguably the most anticipated soundtrack and movie of 2008. The Subhash Ghai http://www.loknews.com/tag/subhash-ghai/ – A. R. Rahman duo only came together once before this venture and were responsible for creating an epic masterpiecehttp://www.loknews.com/tag/epic-masterpiece/that stretched beyond anyone's imagination. The album was TAAL, and where the late Anand Bakshi blessed the listeners with his soulful lyrics, Gulzar will grace us this time with his insightful poetry in YUVVRAAJ. Like its predecessor, the story of YUVVRAAJ is based on music, forcing the songs to be play even a more important role than usual. Salman Khan starts off the introduction to the album with a small monologue while Beethoven's 5th is played in the background, titled 'Main Hoon Yuvvraaj'. From the get go its fair to assume the music in the movie will be based from the west, rather than traditional Indian themeshttp://www.loknews.com/tag/indian-themes/ . Rahman begins with a very promising start in 'Tu Meri Dost Hain' (Benny Dayal, Shreya Ghosal http://www.loknews.com/tag/shreya-ghosal/, A. R. Rahman). As soon as the violins make their entry, the heavily western classical based song takes a Rahman turn for the good. Benny Dayal (another prodigy of the maestro) is bearable, but is too reminiscent of Sonu Nigam. Had the Sonu effect been in place instead of Benny, little Rafi would have added an entirely new dynamic, taking the song to greater heights. Shreya Ghosal maintains her voice well without reaching the higher pitches that sometimes deter listeners from her. Rahman's vocals come towards the end with very little effect. The composition suits Gulzar's lyrics perfectly. The beauty and impact behind one of the most prolific writershttp://www.loknews.com/tag/prolific-writers/of the modern era is showcased very well. If the first song left you completely vulnerable, hoping for a historic caliber album; then get ready to be crushed! 'Shano Shano' (Sonu Nigam, Srinivas, Karthik, Timmy, Sunaina, Vivienne Pocha, Tina) strays away from the romantic feel, offering those young whiper snappers a song to 'get on the floor' and dance to. Rahman has been successful in the past when utilizing synthesizers for dance tracks ('O Humdum Suniyo Re' from SAATHIYA), but at times 'Shano Shano' comes off as a cheap 80s pop number. There was no point of having Sonu Nigam contribute to this song, he had a minimal part and got drained by all the other singers. Another negative was Rahman blatantly using snippets of a previously recorded song, 'Chori Pe Chori', from SAATHIYA. Retracting back to the original theme set by 'Tu Meri Dost Hain', Alka Yagnik comes together with Javed Ali in 'Tu Muskura' for another romantic duo. The last thing you want to do after listening to this track is smile. For those who don't want to see their heroic composer fall deeper into the mediocrity pool and eventually drown, then either throw the CD out or skip back to 'Tu Meri Dost Hain'. 'Mastam Mastam' brings Sonu Nigam with Alka Yagnik and again makes this album tougher to swallow. Alka was once the most sought after female singer, but in the last few years her stock has declined drastically, paving the way for the Shreya Ghosals and Sunidhi Chauhans. Srinivas has not been able to establish himself in Bollywood, but is a power house for the Southern film industries. He adds his S. P. Balasubramanium-esque voice for a slow paced tune, 'Zindagi'. There's nothing original in terms of the composition, Gulzar's lyrics are the only positive. Along with 'Tu Meri Dost Hain', 'Dil Ka Rishta' (Sonu Nigam, Roop Kumar Rathod, A. R. Rahman) is the only other track that's worth paying attention to. It seems more of a situational song that comes at a pivotal moment in the movie. Chances are this will be used as a background piece for a climatic event. The singers don't make or break this song, it purely survives on the composition. This is whats expected of A. R. Rahman, not the previous tracks! A song with the most amount of potential is 'Manmohini Morey', where Vijay Prakesh goes about his classical singing style with new age beats from Rahman. This would have been a highly touted piece had Rahman put some effort into incorporating classical instruments instead of relying on the synthesizer. Krishna Chetan concludes the album with 'Shano Remix ft Ember'. This is a true remix, not just a faster track laid over the original song (which most opt out for because its easier). This hip hop number is a lot slower than the original from Rahman, but establishes a very unique sound of its own. The last
[arr] Yuvraaj CD available in Chennai
Dear All, Atlast, Chennai... the hub of ARR received Yuvraj CDs.. Its available in all Planet M Outlets. Myself, Madhavan Rajan, Kalyan, Rakesh, Karthik went together and bought the CD couple of minutes back. We also got a CD for Benny Dayal, and met him near Panchathan Studio. Congratulated him for his wonderful singing in Yuvraaj, and I also congratulated him for singing with Shreya Ghosal. His part was recorded differently, and her part was recorded differently, but still he feels great for having sung with Shreya Ghosal. He has been getting a lot of reviews congratulating him for his song Tu Mera Dost Hai . I love Yuvraj Music like anything Its a master piece from the BOSS, as usual... It would be available in Music World outlets from tomorrow... -- regards, Vithur ARR in my Heart; His Music in my Blood;

[arr] Yuvvraaj soundtrack...my initial reactions..
Heard the songs on bollywoodhungama.com a few times...the Yuvvraaj album is really good!...but...it neither sounds like a Subhash Ghai movie soundtrack nor does it sound like an A.R.Rahman album when he works with big directors...it also sounds a little outdated... With the exception of Kisna and Yaadein, all of Subhash Ghai's musical extravaganzas had atleast one screaming hit track - the soundtracks had lively and immensely entertaining music with lavish and elaborate instrumental arrangements...in comparison, Yuvvraaj is too simple, and relying a lot on electronic sound...less instruments work only when the melody is powerful, which is not the case here... As for the outdated remark...the Manmohini track might sound very 21st century-ish to some, but in actuality a techno band called Snap tried this experiment with great success in their song Rame released in 1996/97 -- I remember that song being hugely popular in my school (check out the song on Youtube)...Shano Shano sounds like a dance number from the UK Top 40 charts back in the early 90's... I'm not sure what Subhash Ghai's trying to do here, the music is too low-key for his standards...don't get me wrong, I love all the songs from Yuvvraaj, but this just doesn't sound like a Subhash Ghai album, its more like an Abbas-Mustan or a Farhan Akhtar movie soundtrack (which is a compliment actually)... And, where's Gulzar?...I don't see his touch anywhere save for a couple of lines...for goodness sakes he's teaming up with Ghai ARR, I expected hardcore unconventional yet superb poetry here...moving on, ARR saab please stop using Alka Yagnik because clearly her voice is not what it used to be...lastly, Benny has a very good voice, but a song like Tu Meri Dost needs a more experienced and a stronger singer... Well, those were my initial reactions, they might change later on...lets see...

Subhas Ghai had been one of most consistant good music giver in his films. Most of his films' music had been immensely popular, even when he had changed MDs almost with every film. The guy had guts to remove RDBurman from his film. and with ARR, he did give Taal, the most popular album of ARR. So, I am still ready to trust the wisdom of Ghai about choice of music. did Taal take time to grow? never. it was a classic from the first bit of the the first song. btw, for me, Ishq Bina is still TOO SWEET, Saccharine sweet.

Re: [arr] A.R.Rahman isn't a good judge of scripts
The author mentions that movies by new directors that were hit were backed by strong personalities. Lagaan was produced by Aamir Khan. Rakeysh Mehra himself admits that without Aamir the movie was not possible, hence again the movie had strong backing. As I don't watch Tamil movies I can't comment on them. However, i'd say that a good script rendered badly on screen can also spoil a movie. But with the kind of movies being churned out of Bollywood, ARR's choice seems spot on, with a few exceptions obviously like Lakeer, Kisna. But I'm glad he did compose music for them! So an interesting observation indeed!
Re: [arr] Best headphones required !!! HELP
Hi everyone, I tried posting a mail before, but was in a hurry and I'm not sure if i even managed to post it successfully. The thing is i think i can help some people. Without being condescending i believe that BOSE as a headphone is great compared to your creatives,i pod free-bees,and the likes. However,the general perception in audiophile circles is that BOSE is a overpriced toy.By the way, any noise cancellation is deemed highly distortive(because the artificial noise cancellation interferes with the original frequencies).In any case, the point is that for the price you pay for BOSE you are likely to find much better sounding headphones than the Goliath.Also BOSE is not the pinnacle of sound reproduction as the myth surrounding it around here suggests.Ask a good DJ and you will know. To the more important point, This dossier is a good starting point for people looking at headphones. Less than 2000: buy Koss KSC75(better than QC3). For 5k to 12-15k try Grados SR series,medium priced Shures , Audio Technica wooden series etc. For more expensive ones under 25 k try HD595 600 650.Denons,bayer dynamics,ultimate ears or shure(for in ear). under 30K-50k you can get grados GS/HP series or ultrasone.Ofcourse you will enter STAX/Sony RS1 here and go on till 3 lakhs in STAX. But for the best headphones like the HDs or grados amplifiers are a must.All headphones worth more than 15 k are just as good as the Music you listen to.The best headphones needs the best amps and the best source to create the best music. For senheissers i would suggest you little dot or dark voice amplifiers.If money is not a constraint look at stuff like zana deux. In any case if you are looking at spending 15 k you would do better than to look at a mail like this. Try headfi.org. The singular site for audiophiles. For people looking to shred me to pieces i accept that i have very little knowledge in this area.But i've studied enough to know that regardless of the knowledge, one has one likely to get the same advice even from a pro.

[arr] Rehman’s music just gives the song perfect pitch of emotions and melody.
http://tdas.wordpress.com/2008/10/16/yuvvraaj-music-review/ *YUVVRAAJ* http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Yuvraj music review - Subhash Ghai , A.R. Rehman , Gulzaar…… Three mega performers in their respective field of arts together … A promise in itself to deliver beautiful music. It is no secret that Ghai himself gets involved in the music of his movie so much and delivers amazing product each and every time. The three names assures me of good poetry , melodious tune and beautiful picturization. Sung by Benny Dayal and the wonderful Shreya Ghoshal. With every song she is singing , you cannot help but fall in love with her.Benny's husky voice is perfect for the soulful ambience of this song.Sounds like Rehman clone but has really good voice and does amazing job. Shreya Ghoshal … the voice cant get any sweeter or melodious. Very fitting complement to Benny's vocal. The way she releases the lyrics , (note the way she ends every word of hers…i think its becoming her signature style. just fades out the pitch before going on to next word).Many sources say song is sung by Rehman himself. One para does sound like Rehman has sung it.Sweet and Simple lyrics by Gulzar. I wonder why he transformed his style from absolute poetry like Saathiya tittle to very simple poem as in Jaane-man and this song itself. In all very hummable and lovely song. One more thing , i think it acts pretty much as background score for the entire movie. The tune is also used in other songs of the album …. Tu Muskura and Manmohini *Main hoon Yuvvraj * this is the album opener. Rather than a number , its a recital by Salman Khan with Beethoven's symphony in the background. One minute of blabber , i think describing his character. Gives you the feeling this movie is again based on musical background like Ghai's previous TAAL. *Shanno Shanno* Mix between Flo-rida style and Pappu can't Dance. Doesnt really makes sense to me the importance this number in the album. I hope it is needed in the script *Tu Muskura * Glimpses of Gulzar stlye in lyrics. Very well sung by Javed Ali and Alka yagnik. She is melodious and justifies the mood of the song. Javed Ali does well on Rehman's standard of singing fast sargams in the song. *Mastam Mastam * Fun-frolic party kinda peppy number. I think lyrics would make sense according to the scene in the script. Sonu nigam does well using his signature style in the entire song. Nothing much to do for him or show his talent (he doesnt need to do so anymore) as far as the song is considered. But if you are a Sonu Nigam fan , note the variations he used and can appreciate how he has sung this one differently from what others would have done. I think thats the only reason Rehman went with Sonu for this song. *Zindagi* Listening to a couple of lines, i thought it was Hariharan but later on realised it was kinda different though. Srinivas gets the emotions right on. Sung very well with beautiful Gulzar lyrics and apt music. Rehman's music just gives the song perfect pitch of emotions and melody. * Dil Ka Rishta* Sounds much more as a musical theme . Really loved the way the music is arranged. Again , song would be more appreciated once the story is known. But for now listen to this one as a theme music, you will enjoy Rehman's work *Manmohini Morey* Nicely done by Vijay Prakash. This falls in classical music genre with Rehman's use of different instruments in mono form (sound flowing from one speaker to another) making it semi-classical. *Shano Shano Remix * Not a big fan of remixes. Opted not to listen to this one as the first one was kinda disappointing. *In all Tu hi to meri dost is the star of the album with good melodies like Zindagi followed by Tu Muskura** enjoy!!! * -- regards, Vithur ARR in my Heart; His Music in my Blood;

R. Rahman* *Lyrics: Gulzar* YUVVRAAJ started creating buzz as soon as the first teasers started hitting the airways. This is arguably the most anticipated soundtrack and movie of 2008. The Subhash Ghai http://www.loknews.com/tag/subhash-ghai/ – A. R. Rahman duo only came together once before this venture and were responsible for creating an epic masterpiecehttp://www.loknews.com/tag/epic-masterpiece/that stretched beyond anyone's imagination. The album was TAAL, and where the late Anand Bakshi blessed the listeners with his soulful lyrics, Gulzar will grace us this time with his insightful poetry in YUVVRAAJ. Like its predecessor, the story of YUVVRAAJ is based on music, forcing the songs to be play even a more important role than usual. Salman Khan starts off the introduction to the album with a small monologue while Beethoven's 5th is played in the background, titled 'Main Hoon Yuvvraaj'. From the get go its fair to assume the music in the movie will be based from the west, rather than traditional Indian themeshttp://www.loknews.com/tag/indian-themes/ . Rahman begins with a very promising start in 'Tu Meri Dost Hain' (Benny Dayal, Shreya Ghosal http://www.loknews.com/tag/shreya-ghosal/, A. R. Rahman). As soon as the violins make their entry, the heavily western classical based song takes a Rahman turn for the good. Benny Dayal (another prodigy of the maestro) is bearable, but is too reminiscent of Sonu Nigam. Had the Sonu effect been in place instead of Benny, little Rafi would have added an entirely new dynamic, taking the song to greater heights. Shreya Ghosal maintains her voice well without reaching the higher pitches that sometimes deter listeners from her. Rahman's vocals come towards the end with very little effect. The composition suits Gulzar's lyrics perfectly. The beauty and impact behind one of the most prolific writershttp://www.loknews.com/tag/prolific-writers/of the modern era is showcased very well. If the first song left you completely vulnerable, hoping for a historic caliber album; then get ready to be crushed! 'Shano Shano' (Sonu Nigam, Srinivas, Karthik, Timmy, Sunaina, Vivienne Pocha, Tina) strays away from the romantic feel, offering those young whiper snappers a song to 'get on the floor' and dance to. Rahman has been successful in the past when utilizing synthesizers for dance tracks ('O Humdum Suniyo Re' from SAATHIYA), but at times 'Shano Shano' comes off as a cheap 80s pop number. There was no point of having Sonu Nigam contribute to this song, he had a minimal part and got drained by all the other singers. Another negative was Rahman blatantly using snippets of a previously recorded song, 'Chori Pe Chori', from SAATHIYA. Retracting back to the original theme set by 'Tu Meri Dost Hain', Alka Yagnik comes together with Javed Ali in 'Tu Muskura' for another romantic duo. The last thing you want to do after listening to this track is smile. For those who don't want to see their heroic composer fall deeper into the mediocrity pool and eventually drown, then either throw the CD out or skip back to 'Tu Meri Dost Hain'. 'Mastam Mastam' brings Sonu Nigam with Alka Yagnik and again makes this album tougher to swallow. Alka was once the most sought after female singer, but in the last few years her stock has declined drastically, paving the way for the Shreya Ghosals and Sunidhi Chauhans. Srinivas has not been able to establish himself in Bollywood, but is a power house for the Southern film industries. He adds his S. P. Balasubramanium-esque voice for a slow paced tune, 'Zindagi'. There's nothing original in terms of the composition, Gulzar's lyrics are the only positive. Along with 'Tu Meri Dost Hain', 'Dil Ka Rishta' (Sonu Nigam, Roop Kumar Rathod, A. R. Rahman) is the only other track that's worth paying attention to. It seems more of a situational song that comes at a pivotal moment in the movie. Chances are this will be used as a background piece for a climatic event. The singers don't make or break this song, it purely survives on the composition. This is whats expected of A. R. Rahman, not the previous tracks! A song with the most amount of potential is 'Manmohini Morey', where Vijay Prakesh goes about his classical singing style with new age beats from Rahman. This would have been a highly touted piece had Rahman put some effort into incorporating classical instruments instead of relying on the synthesizer. Krishna Chetan concludes the album with 'Shano Remix ft Ember'. This is a true remix, not just a faster track laid over
[arr] Re: Before critizising ARR read it guys....
Very well said! It's one thing to have a few hits to one's name and quite another to consistently remain at the top. Just like Sachin Tendulkar I'd say! thatt's why both are aptly called Genius.
[arr] Awesome songs of Yuvvraaj
I just listened to songs of Yuvvraaj. What awesome are those. These songs are definitely ahead of time. I read some negative reviews. But those people will definitely start loving these songs after 3-4 months or more than that. After all, all these are by A. R. Rahman. Not by anyone else. There is magic behind ARR songs. Not a single song of ARR feels ultimate on first listening. We normal human have such low grasp of music, that we cannot get until we listen those until 10 times. History shows every song has hidden magic. It starts doing magic after some time and then forever. Boss' voice is magic. His voice always shows his genuineness and his devotion to music. I am damn sure after watching the film, everyone would definitely appreciate why A.R.R has done such great music. Well done again Boss. -- Anil
