The language of music

/ Guttu / Leave a comment

It’s been days since I am thinking of posting about music. Today I got right time when one of my favorite movie score won Oscars. Yup, The Slumdog Millionaire. The passion for music made me write this post. My collection of music is growing and growing and growing. There is no restriction of language when it comes to music. I listen to music in many languages and it is a global language. Language is not a barrier for a music buff. Though Hindi, Marathi and English makes most of my music, I do listen to Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Konkani music. Not all of it I understand but still it leaves effect on me. If the song is sad song without knowing the meaning of a single word the feeling comes to me. If the song is romantic then it leaves that effect.This is the beauty of music. It is not just me, ask any true music lover. You’ll get a similar reply.

For the past few month I’ve lost my interest in music. The reason is the quality of music. Now a days it is very difficult to find a good combination of lyrics and music which together forms music. And if at all a song has good music it fails on lyrics side. It hurts when you find lyrics killing a song. I don’t want to give examples here. The current hot genre is the Rap music. It sounds good in some tracks but otherwise it is not at all good on ears. This is my opinion. You may be one of the greatest rap follower or rap fan. But not me. A good lyrics also helps a song to get popular.

My passion for music started when I entered the college. Within a year I became an avid Rock fan. I used to listen to a lot of variety from Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, Metallica, Nirvana, Sepulatara, and some other selected tracks from various composers. It all started with “Wherever I may roam” by Metallica. “In the end” remains my favorite rock track. The lines “I tried so hard and got so far, In the end it doesn’t even matter” pictured my life at that stage. (Yeah you guessed it right. The Back papers..:P).During that stage I got my favorite track “Stuck in a moment” by U2 and another one “Walking Away” by Craig David. I get goosebumps when I recall those moments and but feel proud I got out of those successfully. Music played a big role in that. Music has the soothing effect which can heal many wounds not cured by any medicine.

To make this post the longest post so far in my blog, I am adding a list of my favorites track.
Hindi:
1) Zindagi Ke Safar Mein – Kishore Kumar
2) Aanewala Pal – Kishore Kumar
3) Main Zindagi Ka Sath – Mohd. rafi
4) Chukar Mere Man Ko – Kishore Kumar
5) Tere Bin Jeena Nahi – Bali Brahmabhatt

English:
1) Stuck In A Moment – U2
2) In The End – Linkin Park
3) Walking Away – Craig david
4) Nothing’s Gonna Change My Love – George Benson
5) Be With you – Enrique Iglesias

It’s difficult to control that list and I somehow did that. Yeah I am great. :devil: It is indeed difficult to choose when you have zillions of songs. There are many more which I love to listen. I cannot list all of them here. Keep listening to music. I hope you were doing the same while reading this…

It’s Raining Man

/ Guttu / 2 Comments

It is raining heavily here. There is a flood like situation from the morning. There was a long break taken by the rain god and now he is fresh and working heavily. Rains almost disappeared till last 7-8 days. It has been raining moderately till today. I was happy to see the rains back as it cools down everything and brings life into things.

The alarm has been sounded three times since morning. This year there are some precautionary measures being taken in order to fight the floods. There are lifeboats standing in nearby police station. The alarm is also a new introduction in the system. Although to the best of my knowledge there was no information given about the use of alarms. There are many who will be unaware of it’s use.

Yesterday coming from my site there was rain. Due to the rain throughout the day there was beatiful climate. It was cool and soothing. I usually listen to music on my N72 when there is no friend to talk with in the bus. Some beautiful songs were being played and I flowed away into them. Then I thought of getting wet in the rain. Just when the bus stopped I walked out without opening my umbrella. Wowwwww!! I was feeling the rains. With the music still playing and my phone too enjoying the rain I walked towards my home.

U Me Aur Hum

/ Guttu / Leave a comment

It’s been long since I’ve been waiting for a movie to be released. In fact this may be the first movie. Still a lot time for the movie to release. Today i got my hands on the Music album. So far I watched the trailers and only one song I knew. So I was excited when I got the songs. unfortunately its a bit disappointing music. Vishal Bhardwaj is the Music director and gave some great songs in Omkara like “Beedi Jalaile“. So I was expecting a good music at least. But No.

In total there are 6 tracks in the Music Album

Jee Le – Adnan Sami\Shreya Ghosal
U Me Aur Hum I – Shreya Ghosal
Saiyaan – Sunidhi Chauhan
Phatte – Adnan Sami\Sunidhi Chauhan
Dil Dhakda Hai – Adnan Sami\Shreya Ghosal
U Me Aur Hum II – Vishal Bharadwaj

The First and Second tracks are good. You can forget rest songs. the lyrics are not good at all. It is supposed to be a Romantic film and so the Lyrics and Music play a lot of part here. But it failed start. I hope the movie doesn’t disappoint me as I’ll be trying for First day First Show. If you want me to rate this Album out of 5 then it’s 3\5. They should have worked hard on lyrics. This Album was released on 14th Feb. Yes Valentines Day. May be due Valentines Day they got may have sold some copies. But not a worth Album buying.

As a huge fan of Ajay Devgan, I waiting for this film. The chemistry between him and his wife Kajol is superbbb. Probably the best pair on screen. Still remember the “Pyar To Hona Hi Tha“.
His 2 recent films “Sunday” And “Halla Bol” have been successful and he must be ready for a hattrick. So waiting for 11th April. Till then enjoy the Music.
