ha ha ha. I don't know how to convey that I am NOT attacking you back for you telling me that I have no music knowledge and that I should keep my mouth shut, and that it is my shame. I concede that I have no formal education in the field of music, and that is, if not shame, is the biggest disappoint for me. Though I have been listening to music for about half a century, but of course, eating omelette for half a century does not make us capable of laying eggs. I have praised our man endlessly for the songs I have liked - and those are dozens. I didn't have music knowledge even then when I praise. He has been my only fav living personality (not just in the field of music, but among all living beings in all areas) for 18 years. I have met him. And yeah, I have attacked his songs that I didn't like - there are just very few like that. So saying that some individual song lacks in one individual aspect should not distort "your" sense of proportion. We are the biggest authentic group of fans of our man. I think we should permit people to express their view even if someone just says bad things occasionally. By telling that "Rahman is musicians' composer... �not an average listener's composer....." we are alienating our man from billions of humans who are "average listeners". I think that is more of a disservice done to our man than criticizing him citing real examples. By telling people not to "open their mouth", you have thrown the constitution of your country to a gutter, whether you are an Indian or not, I think the constitution of almost every country must be empowering individuals with freedom of speech, and your statement snatches that freedom from people. I did not violate any law or caused any riots by saying thusly. It boils down to the difference between a fan and a fanatic. -- Rawat
