Swades!
Some songs are simply awesome and the more you hear it, the more they get to you - One can never get tired of them. When set in the right context and mood, the song becomes more than just a song, it becomes a powerful message, and touches a chord in the heart!
Sitting alone in my apartment I played the song - "Yeh jo des hai tera" by A.R.Rehman... It felt so good and at the same time felt uneasy too - I felt like going back to the India - the land where my friends, relatives, colleagues are... All kind of questions started cropping up - was this a great choice - was the bargain worth it and hoards of other questions . And the questions still stay unanswered...
Getting back to the song, the song has a soul and it kind of puts you in a brooding mood with each and every line making so much sense to you
This shows the greatness of the lyricist too... Always been a great fan of Javed Akhtar who comes up with really good lyrics each and everytime... Not to forget the music and playback provided by A R Rehman - he never ceases to amaze me!
Swades just proves that you have immense potential... Hope you keep composing great stuff...

Yup the song "Yeh jo des hai tera" is really mesmerising... Was literally moved at the veins when saw it the first time contextually at the theatre.
Rehman carries that zeal lot many times... it was the same in Lagaan and also in Taal. Lyrics and music that vibrate ur heart for the second.

This 'des' has great potential too.:) Came here via Praveens's blog. Nice write.

Thanks... and I agree - India really has great potential

I agree - Rehman has done a great job composing so many beautiful songs both in Tamil and Hindi. and the great thing is his style is unique and refreshing
I saw the movie twice in the theatres - don't do that usually :)
