Jai Ho A R Rehman!

A little late to be talking about this , but oh well..I was busy! So so glad that Rehman won the oscar for slumdog, his humility and talent speaks for himself. But having said that, I still feel Slumdog was not Rehman's best album..it's really good..but some of his other indian works like Roja, Taal, Dil Se...pure genius. Anyway, I guess it is more about exposure and marketing and making the right people see it at the right time. Still, this definitely puts Rehman in a whole different league, opens a lot of new and unexplored doors and I can't wait to hear and be blown away by his creativity. I think we are all so fortunate to be born at the same period as this genius and listen to his music.

PS: Rumor has it that Danny Bolye (the director of slumdog) has been offered to direct the next bond film and Rehman might be the music director! Just imagine Rehman re-tuning James Bond’s signature music. Wow..can't wait!
Look at life from both sides now...
Heard Joni Mitchell's Both Sides Now and I'm totally hooked!! What a beautiful song...

Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say I love you right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
Ive looked at life that way

Ive looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
Its lifes illusions I recall
I really dont know life at all
Ive looked at life from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
Its lifes illusions I recall
I really dont know life at all
