JAB TAK HAIN JAAN... WOW MUSIC

                    JAB TAK HAIN JAAN.. REHMAN KA MUSIC SUNENGEY

As much as creating music is an art, so is an art to listen to the music. No criticism but this generation of which i am also a part (not age but gadgets depending group) is in a hurry to like, dislike and make quick judgements and communicate on twitter, face book and god knows what all other means is there to let their opinion out. So far so good, but this cannot be done to A.R Rehman music.. One has to be a student of his music, understand, experience and then listen again and again. Listening to his music is an investment to the soulful food. His music can give everlasting, abundant and richer food to the soul. The immortality of his music is far ahead of much immortal music of all times. 

What he creates is not just music, but he manufactures sources of deepest experiences and bliss.  No comparison but it’s unlike all contemporary telugu film music and most other Hindi film music.  Most music is created for the generation in a hurry and hence they all sound alike and get into past within weeks. Rehman music is the outcome of the deepest penance that he involves in creating every bit. One has to just meditate with his latest album Jab Tak hai jaan..  We have not got over Rock star yet and will never be able to and this latest album has again excelled and at first instance, there is a temptation to call it “ Un rehman Music “...  But NO.. no one has maturity and right to give any names to his music..

All the songs are bound to make an impact and i am going to highlight one song which is my anthem and prayer for next several weeks now. I am referring to the song Saans sung by Shreya ghosal and Mohit .. Lyrics penned by youngest at heart Gulzar Saap. It’s an absolute treat to all music lovers, all people who are in love, now or ever before and what can i say about Rehman fans.. We will all worship him. We do not want to be disturbed when we are listening to this song. There need not be any life after listening to this song as everything else seems shallow after listening to this music.. When we wonder, how else can love be expressed after millions of books written, stories and songs  heard , Gulzar, rehman , shreya and Mohit give an answer by the freshness and amazing depth in everything that makes a song. The opening violin bit accompanied by Shreya voice will take us high and higher instantly....

How can a man who is 70 plus create such a magic..  He proved that, love, feelings, living life to the full has no age but just requires the willingness to be joyful. Gulzar’s lyrics are not just simple, but  also very fresh and intense. The experience of listening to this song makes one a calm person and an understanding one..  “Accchi lagi tanhayee” high pitch rendering at the end of first half of song is done so beautifully that you keep wondering at the rehman‘s magic. I for now keep wondering at the new sounds that Rehman created again... Rock star has a line “ tujhe cheenlu ya chodudoo, Iss lamhe kya kar jaoo”... Rehman song... tujhe sunu ya samjhoo, tajrooba karoo ya gawoo” is my dilemma..

This song in particular and album is general is for 1) Hindi music lovers 2) Love songs admirers 3) People in love 4) Gulzar fans 5) Shreya and mohit fans 6) Rehman devotees 7) People with little sensitivity and music love . So who is left?? Only people in a hurry and people who want to judge and make a fast comment... Guys not for you and i really miss Yash chopra  .. Can’t stop saluting this man who got so much glory and grace to Hindi cinema..

 “Jis saans ka gaane se, zindagi bakshi iss album mein, usi saans  rukh kar aap chale gaye... Yeh shayad qurbani thi aapki yash ji”
