from orkut ARR fans grp ------------------ HEAR HEAR PRAY FOR ME BROTEHR AR RAHMAN * * * * 1/2 ------------------
Right off, you want to knw if this song, recorded for Public Service, is in the league of the Ever-Reverberatin *MAA TUJHE SALAAM*. The Upbeat news in PRAY FOR ME BROTHER, the single in vocal and instrumental version is a WINNER. It Doesnt flaunt any crecendos or high-pitched vocal flourishes. Instead it is emotionally mellow, untouched by gimmicks, and yet very affecting in advancing its message of fraternal love in the time of all-round stress. The Lyrix are simple, to the point, and evidently aimed at reaching all age groups. The Music CD is Accompanied by a Video, which Includes "MAKING OF", Behind the scenes. The Encounters with Rahman and his frequent collaborator *BLAZE*are eminently worth looking. But why *Mr.Bharat Bala* Please. Arent Producers best kept behind the scene? Never Mind that. *The high quality of the composition and the intricate and yet clear-cut sound (the mixing has the patented Rahman touch) are of international calibre. The proceeds from the CD single and Bonus DVD are in aid of the Unlimited Nations' Millenium Development Goal for Eradicating Development Goal for Eradicating Poverty by 2015. Now which composer in MUMBAI is upto such Music-for-a-cause-projects in MUMBAI??????? So Hey, AR Rahman out there in Chennai, BHAI TUZE SALAAM ------------------ BOTTOM LINE ------------------ TO BUY OR NOT TO BUY: SURE.....THE DVD IS OKAY BUT THE CD IS MUST-MUST-MUST-PRESERVE ------------------ *
