Here it is, almost 8 months after the release of JA audio, and I still play it almost as frequently as when it first came out! It's been a very, very long time, possibly since Taal, has a Rahman album had such a long lasting, dominating grip on my CD rotations. Even after repeated listenings close to or surpassing 1000 times, I never find myself being bored of the music, despite knowing each and every note and sound to come in the next second.
There is a certain majestic spiritual evergreen to this music which seems to refresh me with each listen. Each song carries so much weight, like a crown full of different colored jewels. It just sounds so fresh each time! Khwaja is the most played song on it for me and not a day has gone by since the release of JA have I not listened to Khwaja Mere Khwaja. I have never done this with a Rahman song or any other song for that matter.......listening to it at least once every day now for 230 days now and counting.
