February Track-list

Here's some of the tracks that I frequented during February. Again, they're in no particular order.

1. Click - Rubayee (Male):

This is the only track which deserves a mention from this album. Its sung by Raaj; the vocals are haunting and the lyrics are deep. It has another duet version with Sunidhi Chauhan, along with Raaj, but its not as good as the male one.

2. Birugaali - Madhura Pissumathige(Kannada):

This is the only Kannada song of Mohit Chauhan I've heard, and I loved this one too. Being a huge fan of Mohit, and following all his songs, right from the Silk Route time, I was a bit late in discovering this one. The song is beautiful; the female vocals are touching and Mohit is enchanting.

3. Akcent - That's My Name, Stay With Me:

Akcent is a Romanian band, whom I came to know through Edward Maya's songs, as he has produced music in some of their songs. Both the songs have awesome beats, and will make your feet tap. That's My Name sounds a little similar to Stereo Love, the first few times you hear, but it will make its own place in sometime.

4. Chris Brown - I Can Transform Ya, Memories:

I Can Transform Ya has good techno beats, and has lots of energy pumping. Memories is a proper foot-tapping dance number.

5. Prince - O Mere Khuda, Tere Liye (Unplugged), Kaun Hoon Main:

Prince is an album overloaded with Atif Aslam, but the best part is - his songs are the ones which are good. O mere khuda is usual Atif Aslam material, but is still good to listen. Tere Liye(unplugged) sung by the composer Sachin Gupta himself is pretty good, its better than the original version by Atif Aslam.

6. Shaapit - Chahata Dil:

Aditya Narayan's debut and he's already composing, writing lyrics, singing and acting in the movie. WOW. This songs makes a good listen. Its a romantic dance number.

7. Train - Hey,soul sister:

I haven't heard any songs by Train before, but I fell in love with this one, the first time I heard it. Its a nice easy listening track. Just for the records, soul sister is someone who is very close to you, and NO, it doesn't necessarily mean your sister.

8. Alicia Keys - Empire State of Mind(Pt 2 - Broken Hearted):

After doing the same track with Jay-Z, Alicia Keys comes up with her own version of Empire State, and it is beautiful. Its a slow version, with light hearted lyrics, and piano composition.

9. Jason Mraz - I'm Yours, Lucky(feat Colbie Caillat), Make It Mine:

He is known as the 'geek in the punk' of music. He's a brilliant musician. I'm Yours is soft, with good lyrics and a beautiful video. The acoustic version also deserves a mention. Lucky is again a ballad, this time with Colbie Caillat, but again has really good wordings and vocals. Make It Mine is also a pleasant number to listen to.

10. Timbaland - Morning After Dark, Marching On, Undertow, Tomorrow in the bottle:

Timbaland, with Shock Value 2, comes up with another awesome soundtrack. Most of the songs have featured artists, but he makes a good choice of the singers. Morning after Dark has Soshy and Nelly Furtado, with some groovy vocals and check out the video, for some more groovy expressions by Timba. In Marching On, he teams up with One Republic(after Apologize), and comes up with a nice song. Undertow features The Fray and is another nice track. Tomorrow in the bottle has groovy tune, and catch Chad Kroeger(of Nickelback) going techno with this one.

11. Kanye West - Heartless, Heartless cover by The Fray:

Its a weird song, but I still like it for some reason. Probably it gets out the feelings a lot better. The cover version by The Fray is also worth a mention, it is deep and haunting.
