Bollywood here we come!

A.R. Rahman was finally nominated and won for his work on "Slumdog Millionaire" however "Dil Se..." I feel has a far better soundtrack with a song that has come to typify what the bollywood sound is about.

That song is Chaiyya Chaiyya - This is arguably the best known piece of Bollywood music outside of India. The music video featuring the lead in this movie was shot on top of a moving train and has been renowned by choreographers as groundbreaking. The music itself has been sampled several times and you can find two other versions here on SST. The first is from another bollywood film "Bombay Dreams" and the second is from the American film "The Inside Man."

The rest of the songs (and they are vocals) on the album are all variations on various Indian pop music. There a bit of a love song in Jiya Jale. And the sound of Chaiyya Chaiyya is repeated in Thayya Thayya. Each is great in and of themselves and really typifies the Bollywood sound.

If you like getting out of your chair and moving. This ST is for you. If not... then I would bypass this album.
