does that make it fresh? We have been hearing bhangra mixed with virtually everything since eternity. > Yaar Mila Tha was 90s Bollywood mixed with hip hop, is hip hop some music type or what? To me the song sounded so much simple (almost barren) that i couldn't feel it could be in any genre, and if anything by ARR had "freshness", that was in Yaar Mila tha. Even D6 and Ravan don't have this freshness that was in this song. Yaar Mila tha was like listening to Shailendra Singh in Bobby after listening to Mukesh and Manna Dey and Mahendra Kapoor in Mera Naam Joker, two back to back RK films. > Rehnuma was like a James Bond theme song.. when it is "like" something, then by definition it can't be fresh. :-D) > "Blue theme" was its own thing.... hmm, when a musically learned person couldn't find any previously existing term to describe it, i give in, that, by definition, it has to be something new and fresh. > Rahman hasnt delivered an outright dud > of an album in years (Baba in 2002)....no matter what some critics > say.... of course, blue was not dud by any logic. It has such a new type of sounds never heard before from ARR also. It was all glitter and no content. without soul, without underlying unity in the diversity of songs. oh, blue set me rolling again. sorry folks. -- Rawat
