Beautiful. After a so-techno and confusing Robot, A R Rahman does something so simple and almost magical with the ever-so-sweet and innocent tune of cry cry itna cry in Jhootha hi Sahi. The song and the music are no big bang, and all he has done is make something that sounds ‘cute’, arranged some pretty [...]
First vibration of sound hits my ear, and I know it’s Lucky Ali. And I’m Lucky to hear him sing. That’s how Xsuie starts. And Dil Gaaye Jaa. A very typical, very relaxing song from Lucky Ali that touches your heart, and sticks there. The best part is that you know that even though the [...]
The very first on Anjaana Anjaani. After IHLS I was somehow expecting pretty high from the album, but Vishal-Shekhar go beyond my expectations. It’s certainly worth a listen. The album starts with Anjaana Anjaani ki Kahani which is already there on televisions for quite sometime. While the short promo of the song rocks, the song, [...]
I didn’t know any such movie existed, but when I started listening to the album, I was stuck on the first song I heard for some 5-6 times. And then, the whole album was a surprise for me. Here is a review. Dedh inch Oopar is a song written, composed and sung by Charu Moohan [...]
Today I was planning to write a review of this new album called Soch Lo, composed by Charu Moohan, a guy I had not really heard much about, and Nitesh Pires, a guy who had launched an album one or two years back and I had liked one song. But I was somehow interested in [...]
Robot, the Hindi version of Rajnikant-Aishwarya’s Enthiran was a much waited album, composed by A R Rahman. Here is a review of the album. The album starts with O Naye Insaan and you get to know that this Robot is going to be actually robotic. The song anyhow sounds good as Srinivas croons in two [...]
Chak Jawana is a Gurdaas Maan album, featuring Akriti Kakkar, Mika, Feroz Khan and Alka Yagnik. Here is a review of the album. The album opens with a romantically beautiful Pind di Saver where Gurdaas Maan simply falls in love with his village and gives you a wonderful musical description of his village. I think [...]

‘Pop’ is a genre of music, but for me, it’s been private albums and bands, which made all the ‘pop’ for me in childhood, and I still use the word like that many times. Hence, today I present a list of my favorite ‘pop’ songs, in no particular order, hoping that some of the songs [...]
The album starts with a wonderful Tere mast mast do nain sung by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan and Shreya Ghoshal. As Rahat sings the yet another beuatiful tune composed by Sajid-Wajid, it’s clear the composer duo can do better than their usual, and that Veer was not a fluke. Munni Badnaam hui Darling tere liye [...]
Jailhouse Rock was born on September 24, 1945. This hit of Elvis was written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, and was on Rolling Stone’s list of 500 Greatest Songs of all times. And now, Karan Johar buys this song for his remake of Stepmom and gets it almost killed by one of the country’s [...]

One of the best songs I have heard in past some time. Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy and Vishal, rock together in Karan’s We are Family. So here are the lyrics of the song. aaj phir din hua phir armaan jagne lage chahaten uthi, nayi, lo seene mein benaam si, khwahishen dabi hui kai dilon mein kayi kya hua [...]
Another much awaited album from the stable of Karan Johar. Another wonderful listen from Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy. Oh, did I forget Jailhouse rock? We are Family starts with SEL at their romantic best, as they come up with a typical romantic Aankhon mein neendein sung by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan and Shreya Ghoshal along with Shankar Mahadevan. [...]
Madholal Keep Walking was something I wasn’t very keen on listening to. But I still listened to the album, and the result was surprising for sure. Because whatever be the album, Nayab-Raja’s album wasn’t bad for me if not very good, from the very first time you hear it. The album starts with Bhupinder Singh’s [...]

I got five songs of Kartick and Gotam from EarthSync a few days back. Here is a review of those songs. The first song happens to be Bonjour, which is a theme piece with percussion beats in the background and flutes and vocals taking most of the fore, generally at different times. The end comes [...]
