Alright friends, I need to pool in too.....thanks for bringing this up. daud was very enjoyable for me.
But, the stand out song for me was Oh ! Saiyye...it is by SPB and Asha Bhosle. SPB's voice was brilliant with amazing high notes and Asha's voice was sensual and naughty at the same time. The sound of the tiger in the beginning and the female chorus was brilliant. Another memorable one was the thump of daud. I could not find a player and speaker that played that song as loud as I would like it :-) the maximum volume always left me wanting more. the wolf-like howling sound of daud by AR was mesmerizing. It almost was up there with other themes of that age like Moby's james bond or mission impossible theme by U2 for me. Oh bhawre and shabba were also nice. ________________________________ From: V S Rawat <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Mon, July 26, 2010 9:06:56 AM Subject: Re: [arr] Re:how many of you remember shabba shabba from daud Thanks to you all for sharing your memories. That brought me back to Daud, after years, maybe more than a decade. though o bhanwre had became most popular, and zahreela pyar had attracted quite attention due to its different style of singing and picturization, and shabba was also liked by many, I personally liked and still like title song of daud very much, was it by Usha Uthup?, Ajab daud hai, there is a liveliness in this song, quite earthly song, practical, lots of lyrics, sudden switches between hindi and punjabi i guess. it goes more like a story, and it does contain several "social issues" elements in its lyris that I liked very much in early ARR and miss a lot nowadays, the type given by Mehboob and PKMishra. Mature commanding heavy voice of the singer added a weightage to what she is saying, so it sounded more real. It is more a parody or caricature of Indian rather human life, the way humans have distorted it to pursue earthly pleasures, giving up what high objectives god might have had while making us. This song always touches me. I often hear it in look and get drowned in it. I always feel sad that there are not many takers of such songs, and may be that's the reason, ARR has not given any further song like that. thanks. -- Rawat On 7/26/2010 10:24 AM India Time, _Sai Theodore_ wrote: > i still remember the day when Daud was released. we were a group in > college who used to follow ARR's every release and at that time almost > all in the group were thoroughly disappointed by this album and I was > the lone one in the group who picked this song and asked the guys to > check it back after a few years and comment on it.
