It's just an open communication to my beloved brothers and sisters in this wonderful group. This whole fiasco surrounding the CWG theme is killing me. Where ever I go online there's something written about it, and the negativity is suffocating me slowly. For the last couple of days I have stopped visiting movies and news online portals. It's like this fan club is the only place where I can visit. Recently a tweet from a gentleman in Vishal's page pushed me to the brink. I even cried, man.He said something, which was beyond my imagination. Quote, pls ask him abt CWG anthem. Can he do any worse? Shameful. This made me think how ungrateful people can get. Keeping aside the fact that, ARR won 14 filmfare awards, four national awards, sold over 100 million records, won a goldenglobe, a bafta and two Oscars; this is the man who redefined Indian film music. He did good and much for the Indian film industry is the understatement of the century. He made bollywood cool. Not only shaped the music of India, but all new musicians or should I say, this new era of music in the whole south asia is solely influenced by Ar rahamn. I'm a Bangladeshi. Every new musician rises in our country openly acknowledge ARR as their inspiration. I know so many sri-lankans and Pakistani musicians living in USA, and every single one of them said ARR is considered a musical god in their music industry. He's the most recognized Indian world over. Sorry to say, even more than Sachin and shahrukh. I lived in USA most of my life, honestly even before Oscars, everyone knew him and respected him so much. And they still do. He has worked with western symphony and orchestra way before anyone could think about it. Then how could a man, a legend of his stature be dragged down so easily. The media fucked up we all know that. Not only in India, but world-over , media creates controversy for their own profit. So this is understandable, but how could general people write such things about rehman sir. How could they? There are still tears in my eyes, while I'm writing this letter. I thought I should share it with someone, and what this is the only place I felt comfortable doing it. Man we strive, to be like ARR. Young, talented musicians work hard day and night to achieve the musical excellence or reach even one fourth close to it. This kind of reaction from the general mass and media is very discouraging. Then what's the worth of working hard if people don't acknowledge your talent or effort. I know even ARR has his critiques, and always had. It's very normal to dislike someone's work. It's a relative thing, but writing remarks like he brought to this country is disgraceful and inexcusable. I will never forget the people and the things they have said about sir. He's my god, I can't take it. I don't see Lataji or Sachin ji getting ridiculed like this. ARR's contribution is not an inch less than them, it's actually more. It is very unfair. I don't get it. Of he was born in Bnagladesh, he would have been considered as a national hero, the biggest asset of the country, not a pop or musical icon that can be loved or hated anytime. I'm extremely sorry for the way I'm reacting. But he's beyond these things. I have no intention to hurt a yone, nwither I'm tryin to prove any point. I'm just expressing my feelings to lighten myself up. I got very emotional. I couldn't control myself and wrote this letter in the spontaneity of the moment. I consider all the members here my brothers and sisters. If you can't go to your friends, when our down, then who can you go to, right? Anyways I apologize once again, for writing this long, boring letter to you all. I hope you all get the inner meaning that I wanted to convey, going beyond the writings.

Re: [arr] Time for the Fans to do the job
Oh Man!! But why do we need this false propaganda? I cant believe people didnt like this song. I hear this song all the day and night it has a lot of vibe and for the past few days i am starting my day with this song. But ofcourse opinion differs, May be they genuinely didnt like this song or didnt have the so called feel. I accept it but for godsake never ever say that Shakira's Waka Waka song is better than CWG theme. I am trying to stay calm but sorry to say Its absoutely ridiculous. Its such an amateurish song when compared to his composition. Few reasons i could figure why Waka Wka was so popular among the masses were because 1: It has Shakira in it 2: It was about Football and the reason why CWG theme is generating such speculations COULD BE because 1: A.R.Rahman was paid 5+ crores for this song 2: It was about common wealth games (who cares atleast 50%(or even more) of our population wouldnt know what are all the games played in the event and where it is scheduled to be held this year) If the reasons were not found convincing then better have your friend who had neither heard waka waka nor CWG theme and play both the songs one after the other. Then ask him which one is best. My friend unanimously said it was CWG theme. --- On Thu, 9/2/10, diya ganguly_d...@yahoo.co.in wrote: From: diya ganguly_d...@yahoo.co.in Subject: Re: [arr] Time for the Fans to do the job To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com Date: Thursday, September 2, 2010, 2:37 PM Sorry!!

I know he's being subjected to a lot of unjust criticism, but he'll only emerge stronger and better. He really is way above such things!

My friends used to get fed up of me talking/raving about the new release of ARR. Our BOSS music used to give me a chance to visualise beautiful imageries based solely on his music. It used to play continuously in my mind , even when the player is turned off. But ENDHIRAN has crashed me. I had to stop playing those songs and that hurt me a lot. Never before in my life, I have been so disappointed about our ARR music. I am really SAD. The songs did not have that soul connecting quality, in other words, the music did not connect with me. The songs did not have the stand alone quality. May be the movie demanded such songs. May be, my expectation were much higher for a Shankar- ARR movie. I am really praying that my perspective changes after watching the movie. But for the time being, I can't stand ARR song, for the first time ever. And I am HURT SAD. But believe me friends, I am trying really hard. However , forcing oneself does not give genuine pleasure . Your fellow rahmaniac, Fameeb.
Re: [arr] Vinnai Thandi Varuvaya may be Rahman's greatest work to date
On a contrary i think he has delivered his best in Raavan its way ahead of all the other albums that has been released so far (this year). Its got all the ingredients which we have never heard so far it was totally a magical album which i was expecting from him for years . Moreover it has got variety in it unlike VTV which was so inclined towards western audience and some of the songs like omana penne, kannukkul kannai, anbil avan just made me switch over though i have it in my playlist.

I could not continue my journey as my eyes were filled with tears Rahman's music has healing touch it's a pity that these terrorists have not heard Rahman's music May God give strength to the families of those who died in these attacks, to overcome this huge tragedy.

Re: [arr] Re: Rahman has nullified one major criticism
well said jahanzeb i too agree with you am really disappointed with arr's recent works. Except a few most of his works doesn seem to be of arr kind of music its just like wat other musicians do :-( 1/16/08, Jahanzeb Farooq [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From: Jahanzeb Farooq [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [arr] Re: Rahman has nullified one major criticism To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com Date: Sunday, November 16, 2008, 5:47 AM I too have noticed that Rahman has been emphasizing melody much more of late and creating tunes that are much easier to follow and digest, yet not compromising his signture or brilliance. well i would disagree. his recent music clearly shows he has compromised his signature style and brilliance of his 90s music. e.g. the result is Tu meri dost hai and Guzarsih, while both songs are very mass appealing and instant hits, they clearly lack the distinct ARR feeling/sound his music used to have in old days. i remember someone commenting on Guzarish that it looks like some anu malik song and not an ARR song. though i will completely disagree with the anu malik thing but i agree that day by day ARR's music is becoming more and more similar to other ordinary bollywood music. this is a HUGE compromise at least for me. --- In arrahmanfans@ yahoogroups. com, Chord [EMAIL PROTECTED] . wrote: My parents, who are music lovers and very knowledgeable about classical music, have always admired Rahman's music. However, there was always a BUT whenever they would talk about Rahman, or if I was praising Rahman's music in front of them. That BUT was followed by, Rahman is a genius, has different music, but he's more into rhythm and his songs are very difficult to sing. Even on music reality shows like SaReGaMaPa, previously, when someone would sing a Rahman song, at least one of the judges would say, Yeh Gaana Bohut Mushkil hai, or This song is very difficult. Granted, my parents and others from that generation have not heard Rahman's music in total or to the extent that we have, so they are not as aware of many of the timeless melodies in both Hindi and Tamil by him. Since, Guru, however, and esp this year, however, I have noticed a big change in not only my parents' attitudes towards Rahman, but from others' from that generation, who revere the timeless mmelodies from their time. Whenever I bring up Rahman now, they are all praise and have no more BUT or HOWEVER in their descriptions. They are listening to his CDs more and even revisiting old classics from Rahman, which they previously would label as too rhythmic or too difficult to sing. Maybe they are getting used to his style, but I have a feeling they are recognizing a shift in emphasis as described below. I too have noticed that Rahman has been emphasizing melody much more of late and creating tunes that are much easier to follow and digest, yet not compromising his signture or brilliance. There may be changes in his arrangements, sound, etc., but I really do think that Rahman's sense of melodic composition has been more emphasized with better contours and form. Since Roja, Rahman has always been a melody king, but I feel that he is letting the melody and the singer take on a more important role in his compositions than sound, some arrangements, and rhythm. For the elders, it's a welcome change. For some of us youngsters, and Rahman fans, it's not as welcomed. As far as I'm concerned, Rahman is THE only torch bearer from the evergreen era of bollywood music which had timeless melodies that are enjoyed even today. Just goes to show how Rahman's music is appreciated by all regions and all ages.
