Guys I think its time to relax...Over 95% of ARR's albums are disappointing at first hearing! Remember Taal, Yuvraaj, Blue etc. Atleast I was disappointed at initial hearings! You have to give it time...Our Master thinks long term & he knows beforehand what his audience is going to like & that his music shall grow eventually...he focuses on giving something different every time & please remember he also stays true to the script of the movie! This is not a pop album but a film soundtrack! So the music is bound to be related to the movie! What I have seen of the Movie stills till now, the score seems to be bang on! Thok De Killi!!!
I guess many ppl liked Ranjha Ranjha most is bcoz thats the most catchy song on first hearing & Javed Ali's smooth vocals are easy to absorb. However, for me its Thok De Killi I loved the most at first hearing! The beats, the surprise instrumental interlude in the midst of the song & the pace at which it goes in the end is awesome! After Jai Ho! its gonna be Thok De Killi! that ll take the nation by rage! --- In [email protected], Indmov Buff <indmovb...@...> wrote: > > Being disappointed is fine- we live in a subjective world.
