Re: [arr] BLUE THEME is inspired
Check the inspiration from this track lisen from 1:10...if you slow this down, it is almost same as blue theme. Also listen to the trailor background score, it is very similar again from 1:10. I know people in this community will get mad at me. It is just my opinion and ARR is still the best. But I certainly feel that this is heavily inspired.

But I must say, I have heard this promo about 10 times now and can't stop myself going overboard. I so hope this is a full on commercial album. I personally feel ARR needs that recognition coming out a commercial album and a masala film to get that mileage. For a long time now its been more of class albums appeasing connoisseurs and admirers of his music, lets see him hit the chord with masses too :) Jagdeesh

Re: [arr] Re: MUSIC REVIEW: Connections | AR wrecks superbly crafted music with average vocals
Guys relax. It is just the reviewer's opinion. A lot of people will like Rahmsn's voice and some may not. It will not stop a true rahman fan from having his/her own assessment of music and Rahman's voice. So it is better to sit aside and enjoy the music rather than be bothered about the personal opinion of someone. --- On Tue, 6/30/09, nivensamy niven...@gmail.com wrote: From: nivensamy niven...@gmail.com Subject: [arr] Re: MUSIC REVIEW: Connections | AR wrecks superbly crafted music with average vocals To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com Date: Tuesday, June 30, 2009, 1:27 PM I would suggest the reviewer to try and sing any of rahman's interpretation before writing reviews on his voice...

Here's something: His vocals don't cut it. Honestly, it's upsetting to have a legendary composer push himself as a vocalist when there are great singers around. A minor clarification - 'great' does not mean Sukhwinder Singhhttp://buzz18. in.com/celebrity -profile/ sukhwinder- singh/2462. Also, it's obvious Rahman's trying very hard to put himself out there as a vocalist, since he has 'handpicked' songs he has sung on. Percussion is king on *Jiya Se Jiya*, a lovable tune dampened by AR Rahmanhttp://buzz18. in.com/celebrity -profile/ ar-rahman/ 1331's voice right from the start. *Khalballi* is a wonderful example of how some music should released without vocals. Ever wished you could choke someone by just thinking about it? *Meherbaan* from *Ada*'s soundtrack is a classy song. The music is perfect, and after a long time Rahman's voice sounds bearable. Surprisingly, it sounds alright even when he goes higher on this one. *Dil Se *has kick*ss music, there's plenty going on and it all fits right in. For those who long for the Rahman of yore, you'll find some of him in here. *Ek Mohabbat 'Vote For Taj'* is like the other songs on the compilation. .. well composed. Almost every track is Rahman attempting to show his mellow side, which is terrible for this collection because there's very little here that actually 'connects'. By the time *Pray For Me Brother* comes on, you're ready to toss the CD case at someone just to start a fight out of sheer boredom. The fabulous *Bombay Theme* overshadows everything else on this compilation. Not only has Rahman done the music a huge favour by not singing, but the composition is also excellent. *Bombay Theme* is the only song on this collection that is full of soul. The rest is stuff that will be praised to death because it has Rahman's name on it. The instrumental version of *Pray For Me Brother* sounds better than the original, but may very well be played while you're having free lunch at a wedding. It's pretty pointless to have a *Club Mix* of *Jiya Se Jiya*, and it's even more stupid to make something like that, but then everyone wants to make money, yes? My only beef with Rahman is that his singing is dull. He's bloody good at composing music, and manages to sing with sincerity. But sincerity does not always ensure quality.*'A Journey Through Anthems'*, the CD says, but how many of these tracks can actually be called 'anthems'? Sorry to break it to you, but except for *Bombay Theme*, there is nothing else on this CD that comes close to being an anthem. What use is a compilation that doesn't feature some of the artiste's best work? Is it an attempt at showcasing his lesser known songs? Or is it an effective money-squeezing exercise, considering fanboys will buy it anyway? The biggest question here is, how many musicians who sing about peace and hugs actually care? Do musicians and music labels not know everyone cannot be fooled and some people can actually tell when an artiste is cementing his popularity among the public that doesn't know better? It's really not that hard to recognise a poseur, y'know? *VERDICT* Maybe the best of Rahman's work has been kept aside for future compilations. Neat way of ensuring the cash never stops flowing, but too obvious. And way too pretentious. I bet all your Michael Jacksonhttp://buzz18. in.com/celebrity -profile/ michael-jackson/ 2832 CDs have been dusted, so just continue spinning 'em if you want to listen to songs about peace. *RATING*: 2.5/5 http://buzz18. in.com/reviews/ music/music- review-connectio ns/139782/ 0 -- Regards, Vikram http://www.vikramku mar.org
Re: [arr] Kozhikode concert track list
My second concert. Honestly was disappointed with the first half but had fun in the group atmosphere. Rahman sang a lot of songs with errors which was a lot different from his previous concert at bangalore. The main singers sang well but Rahman was a little below his best.
