A.R.Rahman: A Tribute

http://bollywood.celebden.com/2008/12/ar-rahman-gets-a-golden-globe-nomination/

  So I would like to recognize a composer who has worldwide recognition, A.R.Rahman Ji.  He is my biggest living influence in music today. Some people may not know him, but for the people who do, they know music became redefined by A.R. Rahman.
   Since I was a young girl, I have loved all of his songs.  I can't believe there is such a legend in our lifetime, and it would be my dream to one day meet him.  I wonder how his mind works.  How he so effortlessly is able to incorporate music from so many different cultures, time periods, countries in his compositions.
   His music has inspired so many feelings that make your other senses envy your ears.  But his music is so powerful once it moves to your ears, it is able to bring chills down your whole body.  His music can stand alone, without the need of lyrics.  It is so deep and full of color, that there are infinite stories through his compositions.  However, it must be noted that the lyrics with his compositions are usually very elegantly written and full of meaning.
    To say A.R.Rahman Sir is a good composer is a complete understatement.   Rahman Ji brings magic to the music, and resurrects the notes off of the staff.
