Oh yeah! Chord :) How can we forget such an energetic album? And that Jazz bit was really genius thinking yet situational. ManiRatnam really well picturized it in slow motion Kareena Kapoor playing with waves. Let's call it Jazzy waves :)
Generally, In most of the songs Rahman creates such up/downs and also fusing two geners to remove monotonous of the song. In the same album he used classical bit Pa Sa Ni Sa in Fana song. That's what we call creativity and so his songs are always special. :) --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, "Chord" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > How did this album eventually go down?
