I agree with Aanand. Lets understand taht we have responsibilities as a fan too.....taking both constructive criticism and appreciation for our boss in stride. There's more to discuss than only praise our boss...the very fact that we are here proves that we r all rahman fans...so that doesnt need much of discussion to claim repeatedly the same fact.
Use fair-value judgement, I am sure, our boss would rather appreciate taht.

I'm disappointed and sad that in general this yahoogroup seems to be
unable to take any criticism of Rahman in its stride.
Good fans will not accept poor quality music and still convince
themselves that it is good. Good fans will also not berate people who
make fair criticism of Rahman's music.
Its obvious that the reviews for The Rising have been mixed on
indiafm, rediff and all the other major websites. Despite that, the
moment someone sends a critique here, people jump on him and berate him.
I'm a big fan of Rahman's music and know almost all his songs by
heart. I don't even listen to any other Hindi/Tamil music composer.
However, even I can sense a relatively poor performance when I hear
one. Even Rahman will probably admit that The Rising wasn't his best
work. Ofcourse, it might well be that the movie demanded Rahman to
make such "situational" music. But on a purely musical basis, its
obvious to me that the Rising doesn't quite cut it.
My advice to some of the members here : Please remain fans, don't
become fanatics.
