There is nothing worth remembering about the song and I'm quite sure that this song would easily be forgotten once the movie goes out of theatres. The song sounds like a party song by Vengaboys, but with vocals by Mika Singh. I dont know what is the meaning of the word, ' Baamulaiza', that too coming from a great writer like Irshaad Kamil, I found it weird. On the whole, ' Gale Lag Jaa' is yet another good romantic number in the album. Priyadarshan is an Ustad at picturizing songs and I'm sure he'll do a great job with this one as well. The guitar interludes are the most impressive parts of this song. Javed Ali's voice is soothing and Banjyotsna sounds a lot like Alisha Chinoi. Pritam experiments with his guitar skills on this song too, right from the beginning of the song. It is a typical Pritam composition of a slow romantic number. It is written by Ashish Pandit and has vocals by Javed Ali and a new singer Banjyotsna.
' Gale Lag Jaa' is a welcome relief after the high frequency vocals in ' Paisa'. I seriously hope this song is there just as a promotional track for the movie. And since I dont follow Punjabi very much, I couldnt understand the lyrics also properly.
I usually liked the combination of RDB and Akshay, whether it was ' Rafta Rafta' in Namastey London or the Snoop Dogg version of Singh Is Kinng, but this one let me down. I didnt find this song appealing, though the video that is out on air now is generating a good buzz. The high-pitched male vocals by Manak-E is pure Punjabi and has got that rustic feel, but it puts you off after a point. The instrumental backing reminds you of Usher's ' Yeah!'. The song has music by RDB and is performed and written by Manak-E, Selina and RDB. ' Paisa' begins with a new kind of voice going ' Kya baat hai, kya cheez hai paisa'. On the whole, its a very nice romantic song, pretty much like ' Tere Bin' in Bhagam Bhag, from the same team of Priyadarshan, Pritam and Akshay. If that wasnt there, this song would have been better. The English lyrics come again towards the end of the song. A melodious tune with some nice lines, sung well by Rahat, that is this song. You dont really mind the English lyrics after that, since you know that Rahat is singing the rest of the song. From the time Rahat's voice comes in, the song becomes beautiful. (Remember the English parts in Dont Say Alvida from MAMK?). The song opens with random English lyrics by Suzanne D'Mello, something which has become a staple item on each and every romantic song these days. We expect the album to open with a chartbuster fast number, but the first track is a nice romantic track in the amazing sufi voice of Rahat Fateh Ali Khan. The first track is ' Rishte Naate' written by Sayeed Quadri and performed by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan and Suzanne D'Mello. Pritam is also joined by guest composers like RDB and Ad Boys in this soundtrack. The movie is sure to be an out and out comedy which would need some foot-tapping songs to go with the proceedings. They have had a successful combination and have given hit soundtracks like Garam Masala, Bhagam Bhag and Billu before. De Dana Dan is yet another album from Pritam where he teams up with hitmaker Priyadarshan.
I've done reviews of two of his hit albums within the last month itself. Pritam has been giving back to back superhits this year.
