Pray for me, sings Rahman By: Vickey Lalwani September 21, 2005Close on the heels of A R Rahman and Blaze's My Wish Comes True (touted as India's answer toCeline Dion's My Heart Will Go On), the duo have now rendered another English song together.
The song, titled Pray For Me Brother, is based on the theme of eradicating poverty. Rahman isalso the international ambassador of the UN anti-tuberculosis campaign, Stop TB.Wake up, worldSpeaking to hitList from Chennai, Rahman said, "The anthem isn't just music, but a wake-up call
to end poverty." Says Blaze, who wrote the lyrics, "Rahman and I got along fabulously duringthe making of the Kisna song. Some time back, Rahman asked if I was interested in penningsomething for his anti-TB campaign.
There is some rap involved too, and I got quite charged and agreed. Actually, the millenniumcampaign covers a wide perspective of issues and poverty is one such issue. Besides, poverty isdefinitely one of the reasons for tuberculosis." Like most other songs, the tune was set first
and the lyrics came later."It's an awareness anthem, which would inform people on how to make the world a better place.The main line in the song is "Are you searching for a reason?".We want to tell people that they don't need a reason to be generous," pointed out Blaze,
adding, "It's a pleasure to share the stage with Rahman. I do my role of rapping, especiallyduring the chanting which happens in the second half."Aussie waveThe duo has been taking the song on Rahman's world tour. They first kicked off in Delhi two
weeks back, followed by Melbourne and Sydney."The reception in Australia was mind-blowing and the atmosphere, electrifying.When the lights went off and we began, the crowd switched on their mobile phone lights and
started waving in rhythm. Such a response enhances the mood and importantly, instantly tellsyou that you are on the right path.""The song is growing day by day. Very soon, we should have it on the video," Blaze added.
The duo's next stop is Singapore, on September 24, where they will perform the song withRahman's repertoire, followed by Bangalore on October 8.[EMAIL PROTECTED]
