ArRahman, this is not quite what we want.

Seriously. Many of your classy tracks and compositions go unnoticed. You dont compose music for Rahmaniacs like me. You compose for the whole world. Honestly I feel, the reach is quite not there. People aren't fortunate enough to listen to a few tracks of yours, which, I feel, are better than what people think are your best. Conservative fans may say, these compositions are exclusive only to a few privileged souls. But strongly, on a broader point of view, that shouldn't be how it is. When Michael Jackson composed, the whole world listened to it. Or at least, America listened to it. When you compose 6 tracks, the whole nation listens to 2 tracks. But those aren't actually the blessed tracks. The blessed tracks are hidden among the other 4. Which only guys like me listen.

This is just a plain and a no-fancy note of frustration, from a die-hard fan's point of view. Also, I hope it serves as an eye-opener, or rather considering the context, an 'ear-opener' to people who come across this post, to lend ears to tracks which they feel aren't up to the mark. Cos, those are the tracks that are meant to be evergreen.

If I havent convinced you yet, you could listen to this.

In this age of 'blink and you'll miss the good things', music is one among the many things affected.
Talk of a badly made movie, bad marketing, or late release, AR Rahman has seen it all. And the bashers who have a field time panning his stuff, fail to see these under-rated gems. And as said, unnoticed gems are available to the privileged ones like us :)
