[arr] [non-arr] plz don't compare with arr
check out these two songs.. I know all you arr mavericks will dissect them in no time and pull out of it, even the remote arr-ish influences but take my word, they are 100% original. conceptualised, written, composed, and arranged by Shyam Chand. http://www.jamendo.com/en/album/21356 more abt him may be some other time but some in the arr circles and the film fraternity know him already. tc n enjoy the songs Subramani.
[arr] Re: JTYJN aditi- An observation
i was gonna post the same too.. it does sound like the same tune for those lines
[arr] one more find...
the background beats which loop throughout the song in "oh vennila" of kaadal desam... and the guitar strumming loop of "vellai pookkal" from kannathil muthamittal.. are they both same???
[arr] MLTR copy
few lines of "kahin to hogi" song sound similar to "im not an actor" of mltr.. these lines i mean... jaane na kahan woh duniya hai... I'm not an actor im not a star... the similarity is stark especially at the end - 4:17 - when they sing chorus at higher scale ..and over all, the song has got a strong mltr- ish feel to it. btw.. looks like 2008 is arr's all the way. already we have three beautiful albums in hindi and one in tamil. he will sweep all the awards no doubt... but i think even all the nominations will be his songs this time... effectively competing against his own songs.
[arr] Jodha Akbar is another Mangal Pandey
enjoy ATM till the next album releases..
[arr] ATM rocks........
just cant get enough of it... my pick.. "kelaamal" . this one has one background loop picked from "chittu kuruvi" song of Parasuram. if I am not wrong, even the male voice is the same.. thnks to arr for this one..

[arr] Did arr go to london in 80's ??
Hi .. aishyam, mbthuglak, jelly_nest,madagaskar_indian, if you guys are still around and reading this... I have a question for you. did arr go to london in 80s ?? http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/arrahmanfans/message/35630 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/arrahmanfans/message/35643 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/arrahmanfans/message/35645 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/arrahmanfans/message/35657 and, take a look at this recent interview he gave where he says, he "later returned to India blah blah". http://www.hindu.com/mag/2005/10/02/stories/2005100200460500.htm How did you begin? I was selected for the scholarship in Trinity Music College of London. Later I returned to India with a dream of bringing an international and contemporary world perspective to Indian music. so, it looks like he spent some time in london even before he became the Music God AR Rahman we all know today. if at all he did not return to india, we would probably be still hearing those bappilaharis and anumaliks country music Subramani Explore, Experience, Enjoy A.R.Rahman - The Man, The Music, The Magic.

[arr] Re: FWD: A music lovers personal comments about ARR's music
you guessed it. I BEG TO DIFFER > opinions are respectable, but are more of a summary > judgment. I appreciate your interest to analyze the facts rather than just hear opinions but I would like to point out that Sunil's message is nothing more than a "detailed summary judgement" too . and he aptly does his confession (rather acknowledgement) by saying... > > whole thing. I don't know whether I am fitting > > observation to theories or theories to observation. and coming to the topic, every song has few lines which just goes on and on and on in a brain. I said "A brain" to stress the fact that all the brains are different and unique. So, converting 'an' observation to theory is not logical. I would just give couple of examples and leave it at that... 1. Do patthae... pathjhad ke paedon se uthre thhey... paedon kiii shaaakhon se.. uthre thheyyy now tell to yourself if the right song strikes in your mind??( i am asking this because it is ones own opinion/observation/perception that matters in understanding ) if you are able to identify the song, it means you have a strong neuro links which associate these lines to that song. now, try this. 2. laanat hai jii us par duniya me.n hii rahkar duniya me.n jo jiine ke a.ndaaz ko na jaane maathe ya haatho.n pe chaa.nd ya taaro.n me.n kismat ko DHuu.nDHe par khud me.n kya hai yeh na jaane can you identify this one? Well, these conclusions cannot be arrived at with mathematical formulations(as yet)... so its all about surveying unbiased opinions. and I think this kind of a survey would be more effective with small clips of audio rather than the lyrics as I gave above. thats all I got for now and please do not take it otherwise if i do not follow up on this discussion...
