Ha Ha, Vijay, I loved your example of Michael jackson. truly, i think he
is the only singer in english that most of westerner's need lyric books
to understand  [:)] . Also in 'They really don't care about us' song he
mispronounces lot of words. Because, he want to express anger with that
song. Similerly, I think Rahman gives more importance to
emotions & mood of the song when singer's singing. But he definitely
have to give urdu words a true justice becoz it is most respected
dialect in India

Just my opinions...

I do not agree one studies music from the child hood it sure be an 
advantage if that musician or singer should take up the language along 
with the music to complete the nuances of the music. it leaves a bad 
taste in the mouths when a singer mipronounces the word. Not only ARR 
but almost every  singer from other parts of country also commit these 
blunders. I am recently touched by a song , sung by Kunal Ganjawala for 
the film BABUL . The song is excellent other wise. he sung the song 
beautifully  but he messed-up the song in the last by saying Gh-
umnamiyan bhi Dedo ( it should have been GumNaamiyan Bhi Dedo) or Hansi 
not Haseen and here the whole couplet becomes meaningless for Haseen 
instead of Hansi. Senior artists such as Lata Mangeshkar, Kavita 
krishnamurthy ,Kishore Kumar , Mukesh, learned urdu diction or they 
check their lines thoroughly before recording of the song.

for him to pronounce Urdu words correctly

I would like to open a discussion on the diction which is very 
important in any language. we indians take advantage of our regional 
wey of pronouncing words. I wonder if the misspell or mis pronounce 
their oown language word or the stanza , how that sounds? take 
english , how we are careful in writing correct spellings of the words. 
it sure should apply to all the languages. people in recent olden days.
My parents used to correct my mispronounced words for my urdu or 
english.
ARR has mis-pronounced several times his hindi( which is in reality it 
is URDU words in his several songs.how about as music maestro , his 
orchestra or any musician did not play a correct note will he ignore 
it? then when singing a song why there should be som may diction flaws?
