This song will capture you. It won't let you go. It has me in its grip. One of the most powerful and haunting tracks I have ever heard. Rahman's genius shines in a different way. This album does not boast of complex wizzardry, stark arrangements, fast beats, modern sounds, slick styles. It's as pure of a modern Hindi soundtrack as you will ever find. Not very diverse. Songs are quite similar in nature, style, singing. Classical, folk, spiritual, melodious, sheer brilliance. His best? I don't think so. One of his best? Most certainly. I can see why he rated it 10/10. Rahman poured his soul into these songs.
Buy this album for "Piya Ho" if not for anything else. 6 something minutes of absolute bliss. Based on Raaga Todi, this song is for the ages. A modern classic. If you ever want to get a glimpse into Rahman's soul, listen to this song with full attention. I don't even understand the lyrics, but the melody, the haunting chords, the mesmerizing and soft rhythms are out of this world. Rahman...........I don't konw what to say............ One word to describe this album...........PURE. ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Life without art & music?
