Just some thoughts that struck me today listening to some ARR music
today.
I am sure many in this group would share the same as to how tough it is not
just to meet expectations but to beat them hollow - in today's informed
age and this man has been doing so for well over 16 years now.
In the good ol days - there weren't too many ways you would hear about the
making of the music, the movie or inside scoops until the movie actually
released or the songs started playing on Radio and TV. Cut to today's
world where by the time a music album releases -and specially an ARR album
- there are just so many expectations, just so many speculations, just so many
rumors, just so many inside scoops and so many crew members speaking about it.
Add to that we have song snippets getting leaked and sometimes even MD's
releasing snippets (for remixes et al) - there is very little left for
imagination (a bit of an exaggeration ..but I guess u get the point). And ARR
continues to beat them all ..surprise them all and leaves everyone amazed each
and every time.
ARR's competition is only himself ...with each album ..with each song ..he has
to outgrow himself ..he has to beat himself and he has to gift us listeners
with gems that we will cherish throught our life.
I don't where I am going with this but there is so much to this man's music
...the charisma ...and the spirit that he embodies that my thoughts do wander
like this many a time. Instead of boring the ones near me ...this time I guess
I chose this forum :-)
Sorry about that :-)
