Time To Pray by Sirusho, Jelena & Boaz - A soulful, inspirational song

Time To Pray , a beautiful-upbeat song that describes the pain & agony felt by people who have suffered from terrorism & other forms of violence. 3 singers from 3 different countries team up to sing a song that describes their common pain. The song is in 3 or 4 languages (I am not sure as I dont understand anything except Hindi, Gujarati & English). Sirusho from Armenia, Jelena from Serbia & Boaz from Israel have sung just beautifully. Their voices gel so well with each other. Music wise, its a brilliant composition with influence of Rock. This song breaks the barriers of countries, languages & cultures. This shows music knows no barrier. It really pumps you up. The upbeat feel is quite evident right from the time Jelena sings O My Lord. One of the rare songs that is sure to make you happy & connected to almighty. Do go for it. To understand the song better, please click here.

Music Review of Ek Tha Tiger

Music Review - Ek Tha Tiger. Been waiting for Ek Tha Tiger's music since long. Now that I have heard all the songs, I am writing a short music review of this album. When you have Sohail Sen along with Sajid-Wajid as music composers, expectations are sure to be very high. Ek Tha Tiger lives up to the expectations. There are 8 songs in the album with 4 originals, 3 remixes & 1 theme song. Music is melodious & since there is a hint of Persian music, it sounds even more interesting. Below is the short music review of Ek Tha Tiger. 1. MashAllah : - Singer(s) - Wajid Khan & Shreya Ghoshal. Perfect opening to the album. The video has already gone viral on the internet.

Wajid & Shreya sing in perfect Persian accent. Techno effect is nicely placed. 2. Laapata : - Singer(s) - KK &...

Music Review of 'Havatum Em' - Sirusho's Album

Music Review of Music Album Havatum Em. Armenian Superstar singer Sirusho's album Havatum Em is a massive one! There are 14 songs with 12 originals, 1 remix & 1 instrumental. Album is mostly Pop & R&B and is in English, Greek  & Armenian languages. There is one Rock'ish song as well. I will call it a good album because of highly unusual songs. There is a feet-tapping number, there is romantic song, & there is inspirational song. Folk music is noticeable in some songs while some sound like typical club songs. Below is the brief review. 1. Havatum Em :- A perfect start to the album. Typical R&B song. Beautiful Piano chords gelling well with Sirusho's voice. Very soft, easy on ears & enjoyable.I don't understand a word but music gives an impression of losing someone special & remembering him/her. Beautiful singing & light orchestration. 2. Erotas : - Now this is interesting. 2nd song is just opposite to the first ...
