I personally like all of Raghav songs that I have heard, It can?t be right feat 2play (not in this album), Can?t get enough (That gave Raghav his break), let?s work it out and so confused. After hearing all those songs before his album came out I was looking forward to his new album ?Story teller?. I was expecting a smashing album to have atleast many good tracks, but I was very disappointed.


Let?s work it out Feat Jahaziel ? When I first heard this tack I loved it at first go, the lyrics are very catchy, and raghav sounds amazing and the music has some heavy beats. But after hearing it so much and all the time being on tv and on each radio station it has got very boring. But I still like this song but not a song you can keep on hearing and not getting bored at least a good 2-3 listens would do you okay. What makes it better Raghav added a great rapper Jahaziel he give a whole different vibe to the song it strikes you hard when he comes in. This song is mixed with Lehke pela pel pyaar from an old evergreen bollywood song which is very famouse.


Let?s work it out


Overall 7/10


No I ? this track is very disappointing, it starts of with pianos and then we hear the Tubla, but this song drags a lot. Raghav sounds really good but he always does and not even raghav can change this song from not being boring. The lyrics are not very impressive. Each time he keeps saying ?No I? I want to skip the song and I keep thinking this track will pick up but it does not simply not impressive for a Raghav song.


No I


Overall 2/10


No No ? This is a bouncy track, it sounds really good when it starts of it gets in side you from the word ?Go? When Raghav first says ?NO NO? it hits you. And the verses are awesome and the drum beats and other mixture of music is very good. But the ending ruins the whole song it drags so much each time it goes ?NO NO? (must have said that 20 times) before the track ends. It?s obvious they are just trying to make the song longer past the 4min mark. There are some impressive Indian lyrics used which sounds amazing, but it still does drag at the end.


No No


Overall 4/10


So Confused ? This song is just too good, it starts of with raghav ?Well I know we just met yesterday Things be look so right But you always know just what to say and what is on my mind?. A great start, raghavs best sung song is so confused he is slow paced and very fast at times in this song he is slow at a point when he goes, ?Well someone once told me that you’d end up lonely?. Then he speeds up when he goes


?So girl what you wanna see?


Wanna see me get down on my knees?


Wanna hear me begging baby please?


Wanna see me crying for mercy


Oh girl, I wish I knew your world


I think Im losing my head over you girl?


The music, lyrics and singing are amazing what else do you need, but it does get booring at times which is a fall back for me but overall a great track!


So confused


Overall 8/10


Bad Bad Bad - Mixed with the background music of Ek ladki ko dekha toh aisa laga from 1942 a love story. This is my favorite track of the album, because I love the lyrics which are just amazing and the drum beats is just too good. ?From the moment I saw her she had to be mine, there just something about her so awesomely right?. That?s what I first thought about my girlfriend when I first saw her enter my class 1 year ago. The music is upbeat and very catchy and ragahavs voice twists a lot in the song with different versons of his singing and he shows of his singing a lot in this song The best song of the album hands down.


Bad Bad Bad


Overall 10/10


C?mon, weakness, winter in my mind and ain?t nobody are very disappointing and very boring tracks. The lyrics are not very impressive too, the music is just average I skipped it when I first heard all four and I could have fell asleep in ?Can?t get enough? wasn?t next!


Can?t Get Enough Feat Iceberg slimm ? This is the song that got Raghav his fame, my cousin recently in a talent show did a dance for this song! Raghav sounds amazing and no this track is not boring one bit! You can hear it as much as you want. The music (the hard drum beats) is well done and the Indian lyrics is very well put to place in this song. A hard rocking dancing song which you can easily dance to, here in London you will not find a dance floor empty for this song! I love raghavs Indian lyrics he sounds amazing he sounds like a pro Bollywood singer the lyrics go ?Oh meri janne jaa or meri dil ruba oh mere paas ahh kahee na jahna?. Overall a great track to listen to and it will be heard in every club where I come from!


Can?t Get Enough


Overall 10/10


Angel eyes Feat Juxi and frankey maxx ? This track is an average tracks what holds it together is together is the background of teri Batoon mein, and some added lyrics of that song at the end. Each time raghav goes ?OOHHH Angel eyes? Its like I am getting hypnotize to go to sleep especially the long ?ohhh? but the lyrics are very good and some okay music and great singing from raghav and a lot of bad supporting artists rapping very bad.


Angel eyes


Overall 5.5/10


Baby I?m amazed, another bad goodbye and sooner or later are simply horrible, they put me to sleep when I first heard it recommend you not to listen to them save your self and press the skip button!


Bonus Tracks


Chodh Diya ? Many people love this track but I find it very bad for some reason I don?t know the song just does not hit me, I think it is very dragging, it sounds like an unwanted bollywood oldie, the song is sung well but when the lines hit ?Maine chod diyaa? I am saying ?Oh gosh? The thing that saves this line is the quick ?oh Ho? but it drags a lot. If this was a bollywood song this would be very bad just because it came from Raghav it became very special


Chodh Diya


Overall 3/10


Now comes one of the best songs of raghav


Teri Baaton (Your words) ? The music starts of just like angel eyes, ?oh teri ankhon mein? It starts of with that line and it hits your straight away. The lyrics are just out of this world the singing is just very well done by raghav it does not sound like him at all. It sounds like some famous bollywood singer. The beats are not too loud and not to soft as well it is perfect


Teri Baaton (Your words)


Overall 10/10


The album has some great songs but most of the great songs have been heard and when I was getting this album I wanted to here some fresh songs and they only came out of BAD BAD BAD and TERI BATOON. But the rest of the songs do get boring but not to be harsh it does have great tracks in the album
