Indische Musik ist doch nicht so mein's...

No

Couldn’t listen

-.-

losa mi je ova indijska muzika jbg

nisam dosla do kraja

Nope how bad does this list get

Blind album and artist. I'd rather try and watch the movie and then shut it off 5 minutes into it and try to forget I tried to watch it.

I thought I was at a small hotel checking in and listening to the owners radio in the back room. Struggled hard to listen to this.

What the heck was that! No! Just No!

No comment

No. Gracias.

I understand that Bollywood music is influential for pop music. But it’s just not a genre that I listen to.

70s soundtrack, occasionally catchy, mostly annoying

One two cha cha more like bad. the rest was less bad but not very good 2.5/10

Most of this wasn’t bad, however that second song “one two cha cha cha” was the closest I’ve been to just turning off one of these albums and not returning. That song was one of the most annoying things I’ve heard in a long time. Without that this is probably a 5 or 6, but that song makes it a 3/10

No thanks, do not understand why I should listen to this??!?

Why is this included?

This is generic, uninspired, boring garbage. Why are we getting music from a movie soundtrack as an album? Huh? Just get me to the next album where a woman will sing and mark will give it a 1 because he is a sexist. 1/10

2.5/10

Not for me

no clue what im getting into here. Lets do this i have a sinus infection and this made it worse. did not finish. first 1 star review coming up

theme music to a bollywood movie wasn't the vibe

I can’t fairly rate this album. I know nothing of this music genre to speak to its quality

Schlechte Bollywood Musik

A hilariously bad spy movie with an equally cheesy soundtrack, mimicking funk OSTs in the US combined with Indian pop, dance, and classical music. It's a huge mess, and the movie hardly even emphasizes the soundtrack beyond a few scenes, like the one where the acrobat lady parkours her way through the mansion only to step on a land mine right before taking the sacred stone. If you want a taste of 70s Bollywood music, I guess this shows that diversity. R. D. Burman was one of the most popular Bollywood music producer, and his talent does show with how varied his style is. These songs rely on goofy cliches. Most of them aren't suited for the film (as proved by their use in the movie) due to the emphasis on singing and pop characteristics abandoned by the movie. The songs themselves do have redeemable qualities. There's some cool stuff in there, but it doesn't come together well at all. Almost all the tracks are either boring or straight awful, and the only tracks I like just have qualities that appeal to me, but are just characteristic in Indian or funk music in general. By no means impressive or noteworthy. Favorites: Aaina Wohi, Mera Pyar Shalimar

Bit different I guess but not really my bhangra vibe.

BL: An album and artist I’ve never heard of. This is my first film soundtrack as far as I’m aware so excited to hear this one. Always loved Bollywood and the music from it is always absolutely great AL: didn’t like this at all to be honest. There were some moments when the choral vocals were being layered on tracks like “Aaina Wohi Rehta Hai” at the start but just when I felt like there were gonna be some cool psychedelic or drone parts introduced it was replaced by some standard Indian pop. Really not my thing. FT: “Tum Ek” 1/5

A soundtrack carries about as much weight on this list as live albums. You should have Empire Records, or The Adventures of Priscilla, or etc... I would like to see this movie, just to see someone do KC and the Sunshine Band, if only for a smidge.

Early indian pop? blech. its like a terrible combo of 50s and 60s dance music with an indian flavor. really unlistenable. 1-2 stars.

Meh

Some of it was unexpected but most of it was awful.

not my vibe

Passed by quickly enough, was an interesting fusion of Indian and Western music at points, although overall not for me.

yeah, no.

a sound track to an Indian movie?

Next one cha cha cha. For real though, I know Bollywood is a rich vein of music I’ve never dove fully into. But after hearing this record, so I’m wondering why we were given this one as opposed to countless objectively better albums. Some of the jazzier tracks kind of work here, but it’s not often we get it.

not really my jam

Seriously...

The soundtrack to the most expensive Bollywood film ever (relative to when it was released)? Well, OK. I really liked the 70s-funk laden sounds of the intro track. I desperately wished that continued throughout the album but it didn’t. Winds up being kitschy fun for me, but not much else.

Decent music, absolutely not for me.

Sucksssss 2 of 10

Feeling very open to world music, I was optimistic coming into this. I ended up giving up half way through my second listen. The music was horribly repetitive and the vocals were more annoying than anything else. Though some songs were catchy and had addictive melodies, they were catchy in a negative way. Won't listen to it again, but I acknowledge its appeal. 1.5/5

Not my music.

It's a no for me

This album was definately not my cup of tea. Favourite songs: Countess' Caper (fantastic trumpet work in this song, more like mariachi music than bollywood music), One Two Cha Cha Cha, Baby Let's Dance Together, Hum Bewafa Hargiz Na They (Happy) Least favourite songs: Title Music (awful wailing/moaning track played intermittantly throughout song) Naag Devta (more awful moaning), Aaina Wohi Rehta Hai 1/5

What the fuck

I guess this guy was an influential Bollywood composer and scored like 330+ movies. Still 1 for me

I refuse to believe this is the Indian album I need to listen to before I die. Some cool instrumentals but wouldn’t return to this. Honestly seemed kind of white washed, there is no way “One two cha cha cha” is the pinnacle of western music. Had high hopes for this and it did not live up to being on this list although I certainly don’t have any context from the movie

This really didn’t do it for me although I had high hopes when I first saw it. 1*

Nee.

I don't know what this was, but it wasn't something I'd ever want to listen to.

Not for me

That was bizarre

no
