It is strange how the same music has different
effect on different people. I got hooked on to Rising the very first time I
heard though Swades and Bose had to grow on me. My travel time to and from work
is about one and a half hours and normally I carry a set of atleast 2 albums of
ARR to listen. 98% of the time I am listening to ARR's music only and the
balance 2% I switch to other types of music, like anniyan, which increases my
craving for ARR's music so I am back to his. This is the effect that ARR has on
fans like us. From the time I bought the Rising CD I have not been listening to
any other ARR though I know I will go back. If people don't appreciate the
music it is quite understandable as these people would be casual listeners
probably liking any type of music as long as there is some sound. I have a
friend who could not appreciate Swades music and said ARR is not like the old
days which kind of shocked me but people like them can never understand
because they don't want to. This is a cult group and people like them can never
understand our zeal either. To me ARR has reached an altogether different plane
where he can do no wrong in his music. It is almost not human. While I
make these long drives to my work, his music almost sends me into a trance that
I am driving like a zombie. I know I am not alone because even my sons aged 7
and 5 who are normally uncontrollable are all ears when I switch on his music. I
personally think that any criticism of his music is unwarranted at this stage
especially when he is giving music like Swades, Bose and now Rising.
Agreed that some foot tapping dance numbers are now overdue but probably he
feels that as well. So meanwhile, let us all sitback and enjoy the continuous
flow of great music. As for me, I don't know when I will stop listening to
Rising but I am sure the moment I do another album of the boss will take over.
Sorry if I have bored you all.
Cheers
