Few years back, i was in a gathering where people were sayin AR Rahman is spoiling the present music scene with 'computer music' and all his songs sound same with 'western beats' and no proper pronunciation.
I ignored it and later played this track called Poo Kodiyin Punnagai from Iruvar. They all said...." look at those days music..what melody and each word is so clear and soft to ears...these days rahman and other can't even imaging to compose music like this....!" to this i replied ..." This track is by AR Rahman ..from Iruvar.. .." they were just dump struck and chewed their own words.. ( for those of you unaware, this track sounds very retro like those in Black and White days..killer track!!) So the point is, if we approach things with pre-conceived notion, nothing can change the mindset. Commonwealth games has a not lot negative air now. What with scams, incomplete works and New Delhi dug up...people are not happy. One theme song can't improve things and it will succumb to pressures. Even if Rahman would have composed a fast track like Waka Waka, Maro Maro ( Boys)...people would have said the same. We are dealing with politicians here...remember! So chill. regards Please donate to my foundation : http://www.cradleindia.org Remixes I Originals I Opinions at http://www.wiredbeats.com
