It is a double treat for Rehman fans with Ada and Jaane Tu Mera Kya Hai . Genelia from boys fame makes her entry into Bollywood. This should be the ideal launchpad for the talented actress . Aamir Khan must still be learning the power of the internet and how stupid he might appear( with his remarks about the king khan) if he is not careful but he needs no lesson to pick the best music talent to promote his nephew. This is a typical Rehman album where the listener is treated to a wide array of emotions.Rehman keeps it very simple and does not complicate things like he has done in Ada.
Jaane Tu Mera Kya Hai (Runa)
The best song of the album. Runa must be the find of 2008. She has a haunting voice and reminds me of my favorite singer Shreya Ghosal. Runa conveys the emotions precisely and just carries the song on her shoulders.The song has an amazing tune that it is impossible to not like it.It starts off at a fast pace and slowly transcends into a haunting melody. The song is about a girl who misses her boy friend and Runa brings the pain straight into your living room with her emotional rendition.
Jaane Tu Mera Kya Hai (Sukhwinder Singh)
The male version of the title song. Sukhwinder Singh sings this more melodramatic version. Sukhwinder is able to convey the pain and agony very easily in his trademark style. This song is more slower than the female version.
Papu can’t dance ( Various Artists)
A racy song which is featured in all the promotions. This is supposed to be a spoof on Salman Khan. It is highly entertaining and has a wonderful Rhythm to it. This is about a rich guy who has everything but cannot dance.
Papu can’t dance ( Remix)
Heavy beats and rap interludes make this Remix of the previous song.
Tu bola Main Bollon (Rehman)
A 100% original Jazz song sung by the maestro himself. The saxophone piece in the end is sure to impress any jazz fan.Rehman has the penchant for jazz music and this song is more than ample proof to prove that.
Kahin Ho (Rashid Ali and Vasundhra Das)
A beautiful song sung by the talented Rashid Ali is the second best song of the album. If you are a fan of Michael Learns to Rock then this is your song. A smooth song straight from the music text book of Rehman. The music just flows in perfect symphony with the singers.Rashid Ali has such a soulful voice and he uses the masterful tune of Rehman to the fullest extent. This is another impressive song. I would rate it as highly as the female version of ‘Jaane Tu ’sung by Runa. This could be “THE” song of 2008.
Kabhie Kabhie (Rashid Ali)
Rashid Ali is on a roll and he sounds better in every song. This is Rehman at his best , listen to the guitar and the flute create magic which is sure to thrill any music fan. The song again just flows in one direction and the orchestration is as smooth as Rashid’s voice.
Nazarien Milanna (Benny Dayal, Satish Chakravarthy, Naresh Iyer, Darshana, Shwetha, Tanvi, Bhargavi, Anupama)
This song is another Rehman master piece. The guitar seems to be the order of the day in this album. There is also a nice heavy metal piece. This album is a must buy and is sure to be a hit with the masses.
Rehman Rocks ! .
