Dear Rahamaniacs!!! i have been a silent member for a verrry long time and have enjoyed ur analysis and discussions and fights and all that...the reason i didnt really participate is that i felt a little out of place - i am much older than most of u, i think - i am two years older than Rahman - and also becos i think Rahman's music lives by itself - i have been hooked on the Boss's music now since the Roja days and i think he is only getting better and better and his singing is truly to die for!
what prompted me to write is simply that u guys are ignoring a gem of a composition by the Boss - Marhaba from Al Risalah (am not too sure of the title) Rahman's rendition of this number is truly awe inspiring - his passion drenched voice catches in ur throat and we feel what the boss is feeling - fantastic singing and what a melody... plz do listen to this comment...
