I have been watching them repeatedly since I re-discovered them on you Tube. @ David : Thanks my bad. I stand corrected. You are right, the Rahman once was Maa Tujhe Salaam. I wasn't overtly fond of that one either. I think the best Vande Mataram tune is the official version that is tuned in raag des. The rest are just nice songs, not Vande Mataram. 339444@desicritics.org Tue, 19 Aug 2008 15:31:46 EDT http://desicritics.org/2008/08/17/053136.php#comment-339443 @ cs #2 - It is probably because it is no longer fashionable on DC to subscribe to such constrictive national identities. We are world citizens, what is do special Indian Independence day! :) 339443@desicritics.org Tue, 19 Aug 2008 15:28:59 EDT http://desicritics.org/2008/08/17/053136.php#comment-339408 Great post. Small correction though -- the Vande Mataram video you linked to had the music arranged by Ranjit Barot and not A.R. Rahman. 339408@desicritics.org Tue, 19 Aug 2008 01:18:18 EDT http://desicritics.org/2008/08/17/053136.php#comment-339407 Great post.
