Taal Songs Reviews

Taal is a must for Audiophiles
Feb 20, 2017 11:43 PM5319 Views

This is one of the bests of A R Rahman. Each and every song is top notch in the album.


This Audio CD even today sells at Rs.99/-.


Nahin Saamne is my favourite. Taal title track is another good one.


There are some classics of Rahman like Rangeela, Lagaan, Roja etc which are worth Collection.


Fan of Rahman as I find him the only music director to use many instruments in a song with a blend.


No wonder he is known to create magic.


Highly recommend this Album for purchase.

The songs of the Movie taal are just simply awesome. The movie got 6-7 songs and each and every in itself is epic. The songs are very heart touching. Moreover there is not only 1 kind of song, but for every situation there is a song. Sad, Romantic, Drunk every perspective is covered in these songs. These are such songs which are unforgettable for the whole life. Not only the lyrics but the picturization of songs are also very nice. These songs doesn't took us into the depression but helps in cheering our mood. Someone has truly said that Old is Gold.


Beautifully composed

Taal songs are my all time favorite songs. It really attracts the any type of audience. It's a mixture of classical & Modern Music. The lyrics have the meaning.


After many years lyrics of the songs comes on the lips of audience. Music composes by A R Rehmaan really very sweet. By the way the music of AR Rehmaan always gives a special relaxation. I am fond of AR Rehmaan Music. The songs of Taal shoots on the perfect locations. All the locations gives smoothness.

MAANA ANJAN HAI TO MARAY WASTAY.......WHILE ALKA HAVE REPLIED TO UDDIT IN A VERY BEAUTIFULL WAY.it has seen that alka had sung majority os the commercial songs,and she gave a very few classical numbers but she carried out music od taal very nicely COMING TO SECOND VERY BEAUTIFULL SONG... CALLED... MAIN PREM DA PIALA ....... IT HAS OBSERVED THAT THE SUKHVINDAR SINGH HAS SUNG THE SONG WITH A VERY ENERGETIC VOICE.HE IS A KIND OF SINGER WHO HAS ALWAYS KEPT HIS KIND OF MUSIC UP.INSPITE OF WORKING WITH RELATIVELY LESS CLASSICAL MUSIC DIRECTORS,HE GAVE HIS OWN MUSIC. in that song,relativly odd musical instruments had been used like flute, and old harmoniun,micro tabla etc THE THIRD VERY BEAUTIFULL SONG OF THE FILM IS.....KAHIN AAG LAGAY.......SUNG BY LEGENDARY LATA MUNGESHKAR,TO SAY SMTHNG ABOUT THE SONG IS QUITE FUTILE EVERY SINGLE SINGER KNOWS THAT THE SONG HAS CAPTURED THE INTEREST OD THE LISTENERS UPTO THE END INSTEAD OF BEING VRY LENTHY.KEEPING AN ACCOUNT OF MUSIC IN THE MIND I HAVE DISCOVERD THAT THE MUSIC OF FILM CAN BE RATED AS....................................................................THE SONG COMES UP ON FIRST RANK IS MAIN PREM DA PIALA BY SUKHVINDAR AND ALKA..........................SECOND KAHIN AAG LAGAY ..........THIRD ONE THE TITLTE TAAL SE TAAL MILA....................I ALSO SAY TO ALL WRITERS THAT KEEP THE MODE, SUR TAAL N VERSTALITY IN MIND WHENEVER U RATE THE SONG


The maestro's magic
Oct 05, 2005 08:08 PM24129 Views

Hi friends,


Welcome to yet another music review of aLi. Since you may have been tired of all my reviews, I’ll make a difference this time around. The album being reviewed, Taal, is just so spectacular and so unique that I could not find words to describe its richness.


Taal Se Taal Mila - These words (also used in a song of the film) by Late Mr. Anand Bakshi sums up the entire album in totality. The genius composer, A. R. Rahman, literally combines each taal with the other and comes up with a superior product, a cut above the rest. Indeed, a landmark in the Indian history.


As far as I can recall, the sales of this album, in 1999, surpassed even that of Hum Dil De Chuke sanam. So you tell me, how can a lesser mortal like me review this album? So I give over my keyboard to the maestro himself to present his thoughts on the same. Please welcome Mr. Rahman...


----


Thank You aLi for giving me this opportunity.


The first track in the album is The Beat of Passion. More than being a song, it is a journey. I was told that the film opens with this one, Aishwarya dreaming about the dance and stuff. So I made sure to combine slow beats with vigorous ones! This starts on a slow note, and picks up pace gradually. And it involves the listener completely, leaving him with a satisfied feeling.


I need not remind you about the legendary Ishq Bina, by far the most Holy song related to love in the Indian cinema. You may ask anyone who has heard this song, and all of them will surely have one thing in common to say - that this is the best Rahman creation since a long time. The music is smooth-flowing and that, combined with the class lyrics by Bakshi-saab and the elegant rendition by Anuradha Sriram, Sonu Nigam and myself just makes your sensitive ears captive to the mesmerising melody of this one. Sample some words:


Ishq hai kya, ye kisko pata.. Ye ishq hai kyaaa sabko pata..


Ye prem nagar anjaan dagar, saajan ka ghar ka kisko khabar..


Chhoti si umar yeh lamba safar, ye ishq hai kya kisko pata..


Ye dard hai ya dardon ki dawa, ye koi sanam ya aap khuda..


Then, we have another sad version of the same, sung wonderfully by Sukhwinder Singh and Kavita Krishnamurthy. This, I must tell you, is a situational, erratic-paced number, with it appearing when something interesting is happening on-screen. So it gathers momentum only midway, and not before. After that, it does create a bit of zest in the listener, as much ahead, it rests solely on music, with no lyrics for a long time. Nevertheless, in the entire duration of 8+ minutes, it doesn’t disappoint a bit!


And now, I should not forget the creative Kahin Aag Lage Lag Jaaye. I wouldn’t be surprised if the opening music makes you feel weird, as it is meant to be so. Aditya Narayan, who has inherited singing skills begins this with ’’Jungle mein bole koyal ku ku ku...’’ Later, Asha-ji takes over. It talks about one being unable to bear a heart-break, and all other major problems does seem to be but small in front of this tragedy. Needless to say, Asha-ji and Richa Sharma (who sings in the background) only add to the song, but credit must be given to Ash and Shiamak Davar to have made it visually so much appealing!


Kariye Na, I was informed, was supposed to be sung by Alok Nath on-screen, so I tried to make it as earthly as possible. It is a gyaan-filled number, based on the lines of not breaking a promise once made. Though Alok did spoil the effect of the song video-wise, Sukhwinder did put an extra effort into it and made it feel good audio-wise. Alka Yagnik drops in for a line or two. Musically, the pace is consistent throughout. A decent one overall!


The pulsating Ni Main Samajh Gayi follows next. The fast beats start right from the beginning, and continues throughout. This one’s basically a Punjabi-appealing song, evident from the Punjabi lyrics of the track. However, with Sukhwinder Singh and Richa Sharma as the lead singers, they make sure that the other segment of the society do enjoy it too! Being a 04:30 min song, it does make for a good listen.


----


Interval


aLi back for a moment. Ya, I know. A review of 10 individual songs at a stretch can be cumbersome. So have a break, have a Kit-Kat! If you don’t have one, don’t have. Simple!


So let me do the honour of giving Mr. Rahman a Nestle Munch or a Melody and give him some treatment from the hard work he has done out here. And while doing this, suddenly I realize that... 5 mins already over. Interval over too! Back to him again...


----


Let me now introduce you to a soothing, slow-paced, sweet track of rememberance - Nahin Saamne Tu. With Hariharan behind the mike, be sure of melody that will not be instantly picked by you as your favourite. Sukhwinder sppaers in bits and parts. This one to be played while on w long drive with your beloved, or thinking about one.


Yet another theme music comes in the form of Raaga Dance. Nothing related to the music site Raaga.com though. A situational piece, it has some constant usage of orchestra to get the desired effect. Though not as appealing as ’The Beat of Passion’, a passable one here!


Main prem da pyaala pee aaya, ik pal mein sadiyaan jee aaya..


Saari madhushala pee aaya, ik pal mein sadiyaan jee aaya..


Main pee aaya main pee aaya, ik pal mein sadiyaan jee aaya, main pee aaya..


You are surely foolish enough not to understand that the song under question is Ramta Jogi, the best of the lot so far! And you are doubly foolish to ask me for the singer. Atleast the male singer. Sukhwinder Singh and Alka Yagnik do the honours this time around! A carefree song by Anil and Ash, while they chill out, and it marks the growing friendship between them! Listen to this one. I promise to pay you a handsome money if you happen not to like it!


The sooner the better. But the later, the best! Yes, I’m talking about the title song that comes up last of all - Taal Se Taal Mila. As said earlier, the entire album is summed up with these words, but still, a music review requires to analyze this too! An amazing number sung gently by Alka Yagnik and Udit Narayan. A highly ironical song, where Ash meets Akshaye just while she remembers him, so the feel of pain had to be given. Plus, I was to make sure that a carefree feel is given to the song, to justify that Ash could live without Akshaye. Bakshi-saab gave some amazing https://lyrics. Sample it:


Maana anjaan hoon main tere vaaste.. maana anjaan hai tu mere vaaste..


Main tujhko jaan loon, tu mujhko jaan le.. aa dil ke paas aa, is dil ke raaste..


Jo tera haal hai, woh mera haal hai.. Iss haal se haal mila.... Taal se Taal mila..


A western version of the same comes up soon after which, as the name implies, is western in nature. A short track, it gives a decent end to the album!


----


aLi back again. f0reVer y0uRs n0w. After Mr. Rahman’s explanations, I have nothing more to say. I have my mouth shut. If you feel something strongly, or even if you don’t, do proceed to the Comments section!!

Taal was released in 2000 and its music album was released way before that. According to me, this album is one of the best album created by A. R. Rahman. Lyrics by Anand Bakshi is great. Each songs have been sung by various singers and that makes it more melodious. You don’t feel hearing the same voice when listening to songs. Song ''Ramta Jogi'' by Sukhwinder Singh is awesome and is one of my favorite.


Though it has many songs and movie itself is quite big, but it is so well directed by ''Subhash Ghai'' that you don’t see how time passes by. Ever few minutes there is a melodious songs and Subhashji has done great job is placing right songs at right places. Song Nahin Samne by Hariharan is just great and it fits just right for the moods and sentiments that were going on in the movie. Also, the music of Beat of Passion is terrific. Summary of this album is as follows:


Director: Subhash Ghai


Producer: Subhash Ghai


Music: A. R. Rahman


Lyrics: Anand Bakshi


Year:2000


Singers: Alka Yagnik, Udit Narayan, Sukhwinder Singh, Hariharan, Richa Sharma, Asha Bhosle, Kavita Krishnamurthy, Sonu Nigam, Anuradha Sriram, Sujatha

The passion of Subhash Ghai
Oct 26, 2001 03:42 PM12156 Views

The passion of Subhash Ghai, the magic of A.R Rahman and the poetry of Anand Bakshi – Taal!!! Taal is undoubtedly the most eagerly awaited Hindi film album of the year. Taal is the first time A. R. Rahman has set tunes to Anand Bakshi's https://lyrics. Taal is the first time ‘showman’ Subhash Ghai has worked with A. R. Rahman. Ghai has said numerous times that Taal has the best music than any of his previous films. And that is a true statement. As the title says, ‘Taal – the beat of passion’, Rahman has given music which is steeped in rhythm and heavy of North Indian touches. The album begins with Anuradha Sriram singing ‘Ishq Bina’ along with Sujatha, Sonu Nigam and A.R Rahman himself. Anuradha Sriram was the surprise package of this excellent number, which constantly has a very catchy and techno-based bass guitar going on in the song. Sonu Nigam and A.R Raman both provide excellent singing, which according to me is the best part of the song. The song has excellently used the bass guitar and tabla to provide the fantastic beats of this song. A perfect start to the beat of passion.


The next is the title track with Alka Yagnik and Udit coming together singing ‘Taal Se Taal Mila’. The song, starts with Sukhvinder Singh brilliantly singing in the background closely followed by Alka Yagnik’s voice. This song has great singing by both the lead singers. And is all about great melody. Excellent stuff! The next track has Harhiharan and Sukhvinder coming together in ‘Nahin Saamne Tu’. The highlight of the song is the orchestration and the use of the sitar and as usual good singing by Hariharan (Sukhvinder has very little to do in the song). This song is a slow song but still very good, showing Rahman’s versatility.


The next song is a very Punjabi number ‘Ramta Jogi’, with Sukhvinder and Alka Yagnik. This song has a very haunting beat to it, which keeps on persisting throughout, and stays in your mind long after. One can literally feel the beat of passion in this one and Sukhvinder’s singing helps a lot. Rahman experimenting again with a lot of innovative instrumentation which as usual sounds great.


The next track is a title music interlude – called the beat of passion. The beginning, very African. This piece has good percussion. Rahman does have the art and talent to mix a lot of stuff together, which makes him definitely the best we have today.


The next track, ‘Kariye na ‘, by Sukhvinder and Alka Yagnik has a lilting ‘pahaadi’ feel to it, and great singing by Sukhvinder and Alka Yagnik. Sukhvinder sounds different as compared to his usual Punjabi self. A very melodious number.


‘Ni Main Samajh Gayi’ has Sukhvinder and the husky voice of Richa Sharma. A great dance number with a lot of Punjabi folk influence. The interesting thing about the song is that Rahman has used just one beat throughout out the song, which leaves a little extra load on the singers' part. And both the singers have again shown their talent superbly. Another good song. Two thumbs up to AR Rahman. The man is talented, adventurous with his music and very versatile. There are no two ways about this.


The next piece is a musical piece called Raga Dance. It starts off with opera-like violins closely followed by beats. This one for sure is Aishwarya Rai showing her dancing prowess. Once again great usage of the rhythm by AR Rahman with good interlude of violin depicting the passion.


The next one has Asha Bhosle and Richa Sharma with the annoying Aditya Narayan. ‘Kahin Aag Lage’ starts off promisingly and gets better. Asha Bhosle provides her vocals in this song, which has jungle like sounds coming from the background and as usual Rahman has been excellent with orchestration.


Next we have ‘Ishq Bina Ishq Bina’ repeated with Kavita and Sukhvinder providing the vocals. A slower version of the song but nonetheless sounds good with excellent vocals by the lead singers and the chorus in the background. In the middle there is a variation done in the tune followed by westernized with techno-based beats playing in the background. The song is a little long which gets monotonous.


The eleventh track has Madhu, Vaishali and Shoma singing to ‘Kya Dekh Rahe ho Tum’. This is a very brief song depicting ‘girl talk’. Nothing much to write about.


The album ends with the western version of the title song. Song starts of with techno beats with Sukhvinder following up with his classical dance beats vocally. Great fusion. A. R. Rahman rules.


Ghai, Rahman and Anand Bakshi have put in a lot of effort in this album and a must buy for everyone. A sure-fire hit. This is definitely Ghai’s best after Karz and that is saying a lot given his past track record.


Taal The Rythmn
Feb 28, 2001 09:36 AM6334 Views

This album of music director A.R. Rehman has the soul-stirring effect that can quench the thrist of any music lover. The careful blending of western and Indian music has the power even to soothe the savage beast and ''Taal'' is the perfect example of that.


This album is of worth buying because the buyer will feel that atleast one has brought some good music home. All the songs of the album is worth hearing and there is no doubt about that.


With regards


Mandhir Saikia


Great music!!!

Taal comes out trumps in the music scene and rehman does it again.


the songs are simply great.ishq bina is excellent and well sung.taal se.... is a beautiful piece of music and again sung well by alka yagnik.


the 2nd version is of the same song is too good and the start especially is magnificent.the 2nd version of ishq bina starts slowly but afterwards the beats and music are very good.


kahin aag lage is another magical piece.nahi samne is a slow haunting no.the 2 music pieces also sound great.


the only average songs are ramta jogi,the last song of side1 and the starting song in the film.


Taal se taal mila
Jan 10, 2001 12:03 PM7180 Views

Rehman has this distinct ability to come up trumps, specially when critics give up on him. His music is something that normally grows up on you.But with Taal, all his numbers make u get up and take notice. The title song, is great to listen to. The song Kariye na, has a distinct folksy tune. But it is with Ishq Bina that he really dishes it out. The first one with Alka and Sonu is great, But the 2nd version, with Kavita Krishnamurthy ( last song of the film) is magnificently done. This is one album, one must have in their collection. This is Rehman at his best, and such albums are for eternity.


Very Kewl Songs

I dont know very much about the whole album but there is one song that I really love, mainly because I like Azharuddin. Some years back they produced a cassette with all the favorite songs of cricketers and 'Taal le se taal' was Azhar's favorite! Once I heard that song it really touched my heart because it reminded me of old days and how people lived back then. I really enjoyed the lyrics and the music. I belive its really worth it.


If you dont have it already, GET IT!!

Finallly there was a different type of music! I buy a lot of hindi audio tapes but somehow after listening to them for a couple of times, I get bored. 'Taal' was one album that I liked a lot. It was not one of those 'Tape Fillers'. The music was different from others and the lyrics were also good. You can listen to this while you are in the car, or if you are just bored of the music you listen to everyday and want something different. All the songs and good and its surely worth buying the audio tape if you cannot afford the CD..
