Pure Rahmaninan Magic with Just One Minute and Thirthy Two Seconds of MUSIC

eh masakalli masakalli. ud matakalli matakalli

eh masakalli masakalli. ud matakalli matakalli

eh masakalli masa masakalli. ud matakalli matakalli

masakalli masakalli. ud matakalli matakalli

Zara pankh jhatak - gayi dhool attak

aur lachak machak ke door bhatak

ud door dagar dagar kasbe kooche nnu

kar basti me yaay yaay

ikdi se mud. Adaa se ud.

kar le poori dil ki tammanna.

hawa se ud. adaa se jud

bur burr burr tu he heera panna re

masakalli masakalli. ud matakalli matakalli

masakalli masakalli. ud matakalli matak matak.

Even as I listen, eyes closed, to this thoroughly high spirited piece of excellent music with lyrics that are totally language independent and burst with freedom of expressions, I stop just short of thinking that Rahman is now probably one step ahead of Ilayaraja.

This song ( yes, even this one minuter) is as rahmanic as it can get - meaning one needs to listen to it exactly 4 times to start loving it and totally 6 times to completely fall in love with it.

One doesn't even need to watch the video to realize that this song is to describe a person who has complete license to do what he/she wants and is composed by some one who is also in a similar frame of mind.

Open is the word to describe the song. The song is sung absolutely open-throated ( no technicalities i no :P) and is super-spirited.An Absolutely mood uplifting act by Rahman in his complete elements.

WE bow down to the MADRAS MAESTRO

WE can't wait till we see him with the OSCAR in his hand

WE also can't wait for jan 14 when the audio of 'Dilli-6' releases.

WE just can't yet call him better than Ilayaraja but we can be confidently lock kiya jaaye that He is right on track.

Rehman need much more to prove that he is ahead of Ilayaraja. Accept that Rehman is the music today and creating business.He's giving unique good music. But ahead of Ilayaraja - no way man. May be we r incompetent to say such things

Thats why i just stopped short of saying he is better.

I too love ilayaraja... probably more than RAHMAN
