Great topic. My personal favorites in terms of music quality would be GURU and Life in a Metro.
GURU - is an album with an excellent variety of songs. Must say that compared to ARR standards, probably not one of his best but still mindblowing. Aye Hairathe and Mayya have in a way redefined a genre of music each, and that's really awesome. Sorry to say, but Baazi laga still remains a skip-track for me. LIFE IN A METRO - is an album that just surprised me, and continues to surprise me. Pritam has indeed come up with a soundtrack to last a lifetime. The rock feel to the songs is something that many MDs used to shy away from, while Pritam has created a full blown sountrack with that feel. On close listens, one can be inspired by the classical touches in the songs (music before the 2nd para in Alvida, In Dino paragraphs), the singing (esp KK in Alvida), the melodious use of guitars (in all the songs!). Additionally the soundtrack really flows with the movie, and the tunes compliment the lyrics very well. Picks of the album (hard to do) would be Alvida, In Dino and O meri jaan; but Baatein Kuch Ankahin, Rishtey are just as equally good. On a special mention, SEL have done a decent job in Salaam-e-ishq (a fun album), and excellent experimentation in Johnny Gaddar (the title and Move you body are compositions that could put the International rock and R&B songs to shame). -Ricky --- In [email protected], Abdul Manaf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi pavan > i agree with u. Infact i had these albums in my mind when iam posting it. I expected tight competition in 2007. But nothing happening. Look at jhoom barabar jhoom,oso,saawariya,ta ra rum pum,metro etc. These albums didn't reach the standard what i expect. > > $*$ PaVaN $*$ wrote: > > This year there were some good albums..and feel top 10 albums of the year would be (not in any ranking) 1.Guru - A.R Rahman 2.Life..in Metro - Pritam 3.Om Shanthi Om - Vishal Shekhar 4.Jhoom Barabar Jhoom - S-E-L 5.Partner - Sajid-wajid 6.Namashtey London - Himesh 7.Chak De India - Salim Sulaiman 8.Hey Baby - S-E-L 9.Saalam E Ishq - S-E-L 10.Saawariya - Monty (did i miss any?????) i think movies which would come in top 5 would be : Guru,Om Shanthi Om,Namasthey London,Chak De India,Jhoom Baraabar Jhoom There wud be a intresting competition between Guru and Om Shanthi Om,and if OSO as a movie turns out to be a hit..then i feel it would be Om Shanthi Om all the way this year.. Guru is an amazin album,but when > > comparing with RDB,it didnt have tht Knock out Punch i think :) It was my opinion..and only in respect to the awards...
