Music
has always played a major part in my life. It has been with me in my happy,
sad, angry, devastated, irritated, and all of the moments people have in their lives.
The music of this year started off with the big hit of Aashiqui 2 (which is the
only album I can recollect :P) and now my playlist has songs from movies like
Lootera, and Bhaag Milkha Bhaag as well (not the whole album, but just some
select songs).
The
songs of D-Day did well for me as well, with vocals from Rahul Ram, and another
reproduction of the impressive ‘Duma Dum Mast Kalandar’ by Abida Parveen;
whereas the music of Once Upon A Time Dobaara failed to impress me that much.
But
the latest entrant in my playlist is the album ‘Satyagraha’. A mere ruse made me
download the album, and a long wait for a bus at the bus stop engrossed me to listen
to this album. Well, the result was shocking. A movie based on a topic
involving corruption, the songs are absolutely matching the theme.
Well,
to be frank, the songs are fun. The lyrics do make you laugh at times, especially
in the song ‘Janta Rocks’; and the tunes of all the songs are sticking. You cannot
do better than humming the tunes during the day (I have been doing it during my
exams). Rahul Ram again uses his vocals in ‘Hum Bhole The’ and stirs up the
blood.
On
the whole, this album is good to hear, and puts the theme of the film in full
display with the use of ironic and satirical lyrics which sum up the condition
of the whole nation at this point.
Now
downloaded the songs of Madras Café, starring John Abraham, Ayushmann Khurana,
and Nargis Fakhri. Will put up a review if something in it clicks me. ;)
PS:
This is my first try at reviewing a musical subject. Please put down your comments
at the bottom of the page; that will be appreciated. Do listen to the music and
comment! :)
