During IRs time there was only radio, no tv except for doordarshan we know what kind of programs they telecast. People will listen to a song (a good number) once a week(max) . If u have to listen to a good song again you will have to watch the movie again. Its not possible. But what is happening today. Rahmans album is bought approx by a lakh in 3 days of release. This gets on to the internet. On the day of release die hard fans listen to it for some 20 times easily no Exauguration. I personally listen to a new album atleast 10 times in the first 3 days. Plus videos on net and tv channels if possible. Die hard rahman fans watch movies twice just for the music and video if its good. I bet best of IR songs might have been replayed some 100 times till this date may be 500 times or mai b 1000. I can sure say I have watched and listened to lagaan, roja , RDB , vande mataram , Km , Uyrie , Bombay, new york nagaram more than that. Rahman revolutionized Indian music, TV channels, way we listen to songs and so on... If you call Only you from vande mataram and new york nagaram as just techinacally good songs then i am sorry, u r not ready to appreciate good music. Dont call apne desh ki mitti from subhash chandra bose as a mere technicaly sound one and ofcourse a lullaby number from the same album. I dont know how many times i have listened to sivaji numbers. I wake up almost everyday with endrendrum punnagai - best way to begin. To add am a die hard fan of IR too, i rembr every movie of his atleast 400 and songs in it. So IR fans dont get irritated but this the truth. Rahman has managed to cross boundaries. Never say IR did not have the help of technology and media, he is still scoring music but without any success. Rahman came in 92 IR was at his peak during this time. I dont know why or how rahman could catch up with both hindi and tamil audience when the rest were dying in their den. So its not just technology or media - there is something more to it - ITS GREAT MUSIC. When something is repeated too many times - its natural it stays in mind . It lingers up in there. I am sure i will listen to koon chala, munbe va, theendai mei theendai and narumugaiye , sarfarosh ki tamana , pachail killigal tholodu, gopalanuhare , chale chalo, ishwar allah, pukar in my death bed and sure atleast lakh in this earth will. Stop comparing rahman or music. See what your seeing. Art is best enjoyed that way. Picaso and mischelangelo are not the same , bach and mozart arent same, rahman and illayaraja arnt same, sachin , ponting , lara arent same, viv richards and gavaskar arent saem, kumble warne and murali arent same, shankar and mani ratnam arent same, king kahan big b and aamir arent similar but they all have something in common - they are LEGENDS. WARNING - NEVER AGAIN TALK ABOUT CRAPS LIKE HJ here. THIS IS A DIVINE PLACE FOR FANS LIKE ME. WHEN I AM IN MOSQUE I PRAY ALLAH, WHEN I AM IN CHURCH I PRAY JESUS , THIS IS FOR RAHMAN _ TALK ABOUT RAHMAN and nothing else. --- Anish <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dear Friends, > > I am a die hard fan of ARR, since he began his > career.
