andhra raaa.....mess raaa....food raaa....

the idea if ur an andhriite is to tell me what the difference between these sabjis are,and if ur one of those unlucky souls stuck wit andhra food,tell me wats common...
the latter is damn easy..they all just taste like chilli.Nothin to it ! sambhars too spicy nd te sabji is too spicy..y the hell did they add those vegetables in the first place if they wer gonna give us overspiced chilli gravy anyway ??? ....

When i was young --- and happier.. :)

A happier version in the same lines starting with the same phrases....begging you to tolerate.again

when i was young i had a great plan
I would grow up ,become a great man
Oh lord,i thank you for this day
and for every day i pray
to you may this joy be forever
i sense you ,youll never let me wither

I stood on the mountain peeking down
Into my village,my beautiful red town
saw my house, among a flurry of men
my country men,and the city garden
The sun blazed on the shrine bell
burning bright now ,like a jewel

Never had war desenced nor shall war descend
here on my soil,i thought i knew...
Until they took em and my kin
Oh god... i thought,"why us why me..."?

aae mere khuda,
tu itna bta..
jo aaj ho gya , woh kyu huya
aae mere maula , aae mere saibaba,
woh jo aaj mar gya , mera bhai tha...

Wen i was young....

This poem was written fr my dear friend karu....he was just too adamant tat some amateur like me write it....tolerate plzz..

wen i was young , i had a gr8 plan
to be a gr8 soldier nd a good man..
forever would i defend my nation
in my death and in my reincarnation
bear the winds of war,the wind of the terrors
Forever would i protect my brothers
No death can part us,me and my countrymen
I would never let the demons seize them from me

I forever fought the fight that brewed
That which the blood hungry spewed
Forever shall it continue i realised
The fight which everyone,all ,despised
But this was a war,for never shall it end

I never fell,i never saw the end...
I stood alone there standing like a tree
With the wildfire consuming everything around me
God,tell me y u let me live..tell me why u let him die.
aae mere khuda,
tu itna bta..
jo aaj ho gya , woh kyu huya
aae mere maula , aae mere saibaba,
woh jo aaj mar gya , mera bhai tha...

summer sky.

Just lemme imagine,
I wish i d have u there,
To watch the mornin sun shine
i wish that i could have my spirits
Up in the orange sky,
Where id watch the sea gulls fly.

Free my heart,
Free our spirits,
lets Run till the sands and the sea end,
Id watch your hair fly,
In the dawn on a summer sky.

We d never stop to wonder,
How we ever got together,
leave it all on divine intervention,
For i was never so naive,
for never did i believe that,
Our fates would be so brave,
To unite,to take us to one probable end.

"Music review " - 2 .Gajini...

All u need to know :
Starring : Aamir Khan
Music : A R Rahman
______________________________________|

This has gotta be done big time.. !

1.Guzarish... Well what can i say,A R Rahman shows you how to play on the santoor at the intro and then eases you into the ever so melodic trance melody which seems all too easy for him.Though,when it comes to this song,what i really liked is the interludes and the diversion he comes up after the first interlude.The humming in this song is just brilliant and both techno/electronic music has been easily blended with the santoor.Typical A R number.You will love it anyway.... :P
Also.i think the rendering is being done by Javed Ali...Its absolutely brilliant.Nothin more nothin less.He seems to be as good as sonu nigam ....
P S : It seems that in this album especially, the electronic voiced version of the synthesizer has been used extensively....similar to the maaricham song and some vintage a r songs...i loved it.. ! I donno wat its called,maybe next time i will find the actual name for it.

Also...try to listen to the bass going in the background..really gives u a nice feeling...

2.Aye Bachu : Well the start is like..mmm say..Jaan mein Dum from the movvie,,,DUM...yes reminds me of it a lot.The beginnin guitar lick also reminds me of the song nazrein milaana...The riff in the background is pretty persistent and the song is largely bent towards a constant set of instruments..Like typical rock music you can say.There is a lil bit of nice bass thrown here and there and some nice guitar.But overall...theres no real melody.Looks like this song was forced out of him..
Not his best.You are free to disagree..

:(

3.Kaise Mujhe tum Mil gayee- The same can be said about the song also...Feelin extremely privileged to be listening to this song.A long time since i ve heard something so hi pitched and so melodic.Simple beats in the background (by rahman standards..) and amazing backing vocals by A R Rahman.The female voice entry is absolutely brilliant with some interesting blend of string voices ( its veena wit some distortion i think..correct me if wrong..).The singer ,she really does sound like an angel.
Though i think,the female part could have been a lil more cheerful.Sometimes the sadness just creeps into you.The first time i heard the song , the female vocals seemed to be a lil on the minor notes.But after repeated listenings its sounding great.
bottomline : A R Rahman,GOD,OWNS ...!!!!

P S : listen fr the synth/electronic sound here too...starts and ends with this sound..wat is it called i wonder.


4.Behka : Tricky...starts with some vinyl distortion and some catchy beats.And yea there are some nice off beats...awesome..and how the whole song maps to this beat is just brilliant.!! totally awesome..something A R ,once again.....owns in...
Then.....theres an electric guitar playin some typical bassy chords and baam....a sax comes in...and takes you with it...u r wondering where this song started from and then it just plants you back at where you start from....A R rahman magic happens and then all you know is tat theres some rock being played...Ya that was confusin...Tats a r fr you.Hard to explain pleasure to hear.
LIsten to this..you will love it...!!

5.Latoo : Starts of with some mixed up stuff about man landin on the moon...and suddenly jumps to a la la coco jumbo enviroonment.Then there is Mauja hi mauja playin.But A R style...........Quite catchy but not really good enough.Loads of techno and stuff thrown in and some good drums too....Guess m not much of a party animal....Listen to it and judge.

6.Instrumental : kaise mujhe : Sounds awesome...Theres one comin with almost all ar albums these days.Its nice to listen to but i thot all the humming could have been replaced with instrumentals.Especially because A R is a master at it.He can make anything sing.Its definitely a soothing number for you to keep on when you are lazing off to bed .... just like me... :)

*SIGH*.Watever ....!

Its not safe to blog here.Naah im not talkin about this server u moron , its about the place im bloggin from...the 4 sided 4 partitioned piece of arbit materialed cubicle...Any programmers "heaven" ..or.The cradle of " " ....(one of ur fav bands maybe . :P )
Its been a while since i started on a post..my mind has been wandering endlessly ,trying to find something interesting besides work ( im seriuos .! ).Listening to music has become a big priority though i do not have enough access to all the nice free stuff on the net.Regretting all the bandwidth i wasted during the free bandwidth quarter in BIT...It was some time though ,mindlessly (wic is usually all the time ) pinging up pals ,only wen their status message was set to busy... (:))....
So,ah ..yeah.Life is hell without free music...SO WHAT ? ? i m earnin now..! and yeaaah i just bot the latest metallica album ,(in case u do not know,google it..! ;),And an album called Drums on Fire by James asher and the legend Sivamani.And yeah ,im a big fan of tat since i m thinkin of learning something good wit drums and am planning to stick to it.YES i am ...( not like te time i left guitar classes in the middle and tat time i left the drawing class coz of some lame cold and the mridhangam classes i left coz i thot my wrist was hurtin too much...) ...Now that i ve finished bragging about my total not commitment and my naive attitude towards how great ppl should be..( which ,i think i am .. :)) and how corny my blog can get on you,theres nothing much left in my mind...
Of course theres always muck on the music i want to make...for which i need INCREDIBLE lyrics....know anyone.... ?

P S : Im desperate to know wat u guys think about buying legal music......even if you have enough money,y wouldnt you... ?....

request : encourage this deprived blogger....post some comments.... :P

NOW,IM FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE....
(Our auditor asked us ... " So what do u think is the use of documentation,besides the fact that it is a pain ?? ? "....that was the single most briliant part in the session.From then we knew that we were cool..us and them..on the same page ... :D :D )
