Hey guys, Finally thought to post something after the intoxicating album - THE RISING. As said earlier, the album can be described as "ARR's slow poison"
I am a little uncomfortable about the fact that no one is talking about the song "Al Maddath Maula" .... This is probably my fav song of the album. The song has a feeling of 19th Century. The Harmonium/Accordion sounds very "OLD" and the haunting beats are awesome ! I love the lines "E Mere Daata .... E Mere Maula" along with high pitch voice of ARR ... Mai Vari Vari is great !!!!! Takes a few listenings to get used to :-) Takey Takey is a little weird but lets see how it appears on the screen. I love the little chirps and loops in the song... unique ! Sukhwinder sings with passion. Holi Re , awesome use of shehnai and beats. Udit sounds as usual. I love the chorus :) Guys listen to the song between { 0.41 - 0.48 } seconds (just after udit). Simply beautiful !!!!!! Rasiya.... I am addicted to this one from the first hearing. The song somehow reminds me of some sort of garba-type stuff... I cannot describe. Nice use of strings.... The song is pretty confusing and I dont know what I feel while listening, neither happy nor depressed. And, thats the beauty of it !!!! Last but not the least, Mangal Mangal is a masterpiece. Genius. No words left...
