A.R. Rehman, one of today’s leading music directors. This musician started his career with ROJA and from there he never looked back. This man gives emphasis on the tune of the song, he arranges the instruments so beautifully that even a simple song can hit the charts. So, her we go with his ten best songs.
1. Sathiyaa. - Sathiyaa
This song is very beautifully composed by Rehman and according to me, it is one of his very best songs. It is written by Gulzaar and sung by Sonu Nigam. Rehman has used the instruments very beautifully particularly the flute(I think that it is flute) - oooo.ooo.ooooo
2. Taal Se Taal Mila. - Taal
This song is written by Anand Bakshi and sung by Alka Yagnik and Udit Narayn. This is a pure melody. Rehman has again in this song used the instruments beautifully. Can you remember the sounds of drops in this song(Taal - western)?
Rehman uses computer to compose his tunes but it does not matter, we just want fine melodies from him!
3. Chhoti Si Aashaa. - Roja
This was Rehman’s first movie. This song was sung by Chitra. From, the very first song of his career, Rehmaan showed that he is going to be a star. This song was picturized on Madhu.
4. Radha Kaise Na Jale. - Lagaan
This song was written by Javed Akhtar and sung by Udit Narayan and Asha Bhonsle. This was another great song composed by Rehman and was a major hit. Again, in this song instruments are arranged beautifully by Rehman.
5. Ishq Bina Kya Jeena Yaara. - Taal
This song was written by Anand Bakshi and sung by Udit Narayan and Alka Yagnik. It was a great composition. I think that this was the song responsible for the success of Taal.
6. O Rey Chhori. - Lagaan
This song was written by Javed Akhtar and sung by Udit Narayan and Alka Yagnik. It was a hit song and the most significant thing about this song was that the Rehman joined English and Hindi songs in middle of this song and that was the soul of this song. That’s why this song is here in my list. Beside that, it was also composed nicely.
7. Tu Hi Re. - Bombay
This song was written by Mehboob and sung by Chitra. In my opinion, again it is one of the greatest compositions of Rehman. This song was a soft melody.
8. Chhaiya.Chhaiyaa. - Dil Se
This song was written by Gulzaar and sung beautifully by Sukhvindar Singh. It was a Super-Super Hit song and it broke all the chart records.
9. Maa Tujhe Salaam. - Vande Matram
This song in my opinion is the best creation by the genius. It was a patriotic song and it was sung by Rehman himself. You, can often see this song on TV.
10. Yaai Re Yaai Re. - Rangeela
This song was also a great composition. Rehman took the full use of instruments. It was sung by Asha Bhonsle and picturized on Urmila. This song was the soul of the movie.
So, these are the very few songs of a long long list from the Best of Rehman. We know that Rehman is a born genius and we can hope for some great music from him in the future.
