Music n' Masti - Bollywood Top 10

Singer(s):  Neeraj Shridhar

Music:  Pritam

This track is currently doing the rounds of music channels and is fast gaining immense popularity. The long prelude laced with soft music and then the switch to rock later in the song goes down as a treat.

 

Film: Aisha

Singer(s): Amit Trivedi, Ash King

Music: Amit Trivedi

Javed Akhtar's lyrics are always simple to understand and yet, magic to hear. The excellent use of trumpet is fabulous and gives the track a new dimension. The song oozes vibrancy and colour due to the peppy beats and guitar fusion. All in all, a perfect romantic track!

Film:  We Are Family

Singer(s):  Vishal Dadlani Shankar Mahadevan

Music:  Shankar, Ehsaan & Loy

Vishal Dadlani and Shankar Mahadevan come together for the wonderful Reham-O-Karam and the song just rocks. The song starts off with a casual solo rendered by Shankar and then suddenly you're thrown into the intensity of the song. From then on Vishal and Shankar croon to Irshad Kamil's lyrics to the wonderful tune of SEL and it's Magik. Oops, magic.

 

Film:  Aisha

Singer(s):  Tochi

Music:  Amit Trivedi

Who would've thought that such diverse mix of traditional bhangra rhythm and functionalities would sound so good? Again, excellent lyrics by Javed Akhar lends full support to the music. Significantly, both the music and the lyrics are set for a fast paced track. Overall a rocking one!

 

Singer(s):  Chinmaye, Kshitij Tarey 

Music:  Mithoon

A soft, pleasing and soothing track that brings forward the sound of the santoor. With minimal orchestration, beautiful melody and great vocals, the song surely leaves an impact.

Film: Anjana Anjani

Singer(s): Lucky Ali

Music: Vishal- Shekar

Hairat Hai has you caught on with its ultra-addictive arrangement. Lucky Ali has of late been doing a tremendous job of moving away from the soft melodies that he once used to be associated with. Hairat surely one of his best songs in recent times.

 

Film:  Dabangg

Singer(s):  Mamta Sharma, Aishwarya

Music:  Lalit Pandit

Newcomer Lalit Pandit is the man behind the songs of this album and has done a wonderful job with getting Mamta Singh and Aishwarya to sing this raunchy number. One will definitely enjoy its catchy lyrics, main jhandu bam hui darling tere liye, which are definitely mind-boggling. Kudos to lyricist, Jalees Sherwani!

Film: Anjana Anjani

Music: Vishal-Shekar

The title song, the Shilpa Rao-Vishal Dadlani version, strongly reminds one of Khuda Jaane in more places than one. Nonetheless, this track is thoroughly entertaining, especially with its alternating ambient melody-rock modes. Brilliant job by the vocalists, especially the ethereal-sounding Shilpa.

 

 
2. Pee Loon

Film:  Once upon a time in Mumbai

Singer(s):  Mohit Chauhan

Music:  Pritam

The starting of the melodious, soft love ballad Pee Loon is in the voice of Mohit Chauhan and the delicate touches of Sufi are supremely endearing. The song gives a good start to the soundtrack and is surely a winner through and through.

 

Film:  Dabangg

Singer(s):  Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Shreya Ghoshal

Music:  Sajid-Wajid

 Written by guest lyricist Faaiz Anwaar, the track easily sits amidst the best of what Sajid-Wajid have offered in their musical career so far. Easy on ears, extremely melodious, splendidly paced and instantly catchy, Tere Mast Mast Do Nain has a Sufi base to it which is elevated to further heights due to one man - Rahat Fateh Ali Khan. If Rahat Fateh Ali Khan delivers the song in his usual vigour, Shreya Ghoshal's saccharine voice adds melody to the song. Deadly combo and terrific rendering! No wonder it hits our top spot!
