One thing about listening to MJ songs those days (most English songs those days, for that matter) was singing along without knowing the lyrics. Namakku ketta sounda appadiye substitute panna vendiyadhu... for example "Annie are you ok?" (in Smooth Criminal) became "Anybody walking?"... Because they were so difficult to decipher (not just those days, some of them even nowadays for me) I used to always search for cassettes that had lyrics printed After all I recognized that cassettes do have lyrics based on my first discovery with the first ever MJ cassette that I got. |

Very true! Another unique thing abt his songs was that, he always sang them at the highest pitch possible. I don't think I have heard any singer sing so high though! |

thalaivar's Vande Mataram picturisation / costume resemble MJ's earth song a lot.........also, as someone put in another thread, ARR's landmark composition chandralekha(thiruda thiruda) was inspired from MJ's dangerous......ofcourse, thalaivar used references of beethoven's 9th symphony to make it sound very different.....
looking back, i think without MJ and his influence, ARRahman could have, could have been a failure........he sort of prepared india for rahman......atleast for me, the craving for 16 tracks and full blown synthesiser music was tapped on by MJ.......and when rahman provided me exactly that, i just sank to become a slave......i remember my uncle raving abt MJ's recording style of doing the recording for singers,instruements, bits and pieces one by one used to awe me......rahman brought exactly the same trend here as well....As CR pointed out, MJ paattula lyrics ennannu theriyamale paattu rasippom.......isnt rahman doing the same? infact, the very concept of "enjoy the music irrespective of lyrics" must be ingrained in most MJ's Indian fans including rahman....... |
