Some reviews on Hindi song “MILO WAHAN WAHAN” CD released on 20 May 2008 http://www.planetbollywood.com/displayReview.php?id=m052208074707 1.Milo Waha Waha, rendered by Alka Yagnik and Jayachandran, is a soft-spoken semi-orchestral love duet. Belonging roughly to the same genre as Hai Dard, the piece has a very steady rhythm throughout with slight variations in terms of the decrease and increase in percussions used. The hauntingly romantic melody blossoms towards the stanzas (pay special attention to Jayachandran’s chorus at the 5:10 mark, it’s eerily beautiful!). The song will appeal mainly to the lovers of ghazals, but if you give the song a chance it will surely grow on you. Alka Yagnik is a true revelation. Nusrat Badr’s poetic lyrics are finally given a chance to shine in glory, as he escapes the wraths of clichés to write a remarkable song. Verdict: More attractive than the aurally similar Dard Hai, Rahman conspires to give this song complete poetic justice. http://prabhukrish.net/2008/05/20/my-view-of-ada-a-musical-journey-by-ar-rahman/ 2. Milo Wahan Wahan Singers: Alka Yagnik & Jayachandran Lyrics: Nusrat Badr Duration: 6.24 Jayachandran after a long time. Lovely voice, perfect modulation. Why doesnt he get that many chances? Apart from Jayachandrans voice, what makes this song a very pleasant one is the usage of violin and the way Alka Yagnik has sung it. Need to listen some more time. One interesting thing to observe is the pause in between lines, with no music in between. http://rahmaniac.wordpress.com/2008/05/24/110/ 3. Milo Wahan Wahan - the next great song in this album. Nice background music used, with the violins and strings as most effective part. This is a mature song with amazing lyrics. This song is more focussed on AR Rahman’s beats and tunes. Rahman is the most versatile and most impressive indian music director out there at the moment and if anyone have a question on this, just listen to this song. Alka is very good in her low notes. Male singer JayaChandran is pure and unique. It is the first time he is singing for an Hindi cinema and he does absolutely great. More hopes on this great singer. There is something about this voice that just stands out. Really I liked this song. A R Rahman ends the album with an impressive track. Meherbaan and Milo Wahan Wahan stands out in this album http://anandhansubbiah.com/blog/ 4. Another sad song but it is the sorrow is so meticulously depicted by both the music director and the singers. Jayachandran is a household name in South India but he is an unknown singer in the north . This immensely talented singer sings his heart out in an extremely controlled rendition in this highly melodramatic but melodious song which only Rehman can create 2007 Films of Jayachandran Thread – Music Mohandas Suhruthu – Music Alex Pol Indraneelam – Music Ratheesh Kannan KIREEDOM – Tamil Film – Music G V Prakash (Film Released) New Film - Music Vidyadharan Master Anchil Oraal Arjunan – Music Mohan Sithara (Film Released) Subhadram – Music by Reghu Kumar (Film Released) Changathi Poocha – Music Ouseppachan (Film Released .
