70s era is back...just few days after LCMD comes another album which takes you back to those days.....This album has Laxmi-Pyare stamp all over it...
Ajab Si: On listening this song you would know that this song has been penned by Javed Akhtar since most of the songs of this album are written by Javed Akhtar. However you are in for a surprise as you notice that this is written by composer Vishal....the lyrics is simply superb...check out
Dil ko banade jo patang saansein ye teri wo hawayein hai KK has done complete justice to this song...had it been 3-4 yrs back this would have been sung by Abhijeet since such songs suited him well..
Dard-e-disco: Should I say this is a qawali or is it a disco track....too tough to decide since it is very difficult to typecast this song into any genre...Sukhvinder is good in this song...this song has become a rage because of 6 pack SRK body.....
Deewangi Deewangi: Most awaited song/video of the year since it has 35 stars in it ranging from Dev Anand to Jeetendra to Hrithik Roshan..it has been sung brilliantly by Shaan, Udit, Shreya, Sunidhi and Rahul Saxena....It has few Persian interludes which sound peppy...overall the song is a winner from the word go....
Dhoom Tana: Sargam/Tohfa days are back...this song has been composed by Pyarelal and is a number with all the arrangements, lyrics of the early 80s....when u hear this song u visualize Jaya Prada or Sridevi dancing with Jeetendra (in his white shoes) with colorful matkas placed in the garden...i have heard that this song has been digitally shot with Sunil Dutt and Deepika Padukone...cant wait to see this on screen....
Agar Main Kahoon: A slow number by Sonu and Shreya that has been beautifully penned by Javed Akhtar....its a brilliant track which has a Rafi touch to it....
Jag Soona Soona: Another brilliant track by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan (i am starting to like this singer) and Richa Sharma...
Dastaan E Om Shanti Om: Bears close resemblance to Ek Hasina thi from Karz...seems this is the climax song and summarizes the entire story alongwith the reincarnation theme in it....Shaan is once again perfect in this song.
all in all each of the song is a masterpiece not because the music is great but because it brings out memories of the past.....
PS: I would still say that Life in a Metro music is by far the best of this year (maybe the best in past 2-3 yrs)...am waiting with bated breath for Saawariya music...
