Disclaimer: This is my first attempt to review a song and it may sound amateurish. So let the feedback coming in!
The title of the song is very catchy and is very promising as a meaningful song. The verses of the song are built in line with the theme and the song gives a wholesome feeling of dreams, desire, and desperation.
This song starts on the note of a base beat slowly blooming from the darkness, which then manifests into louder version. The tone of the singer is very apt for the theme of this song and the expression is well taken care of. Inclusion of Hindustani notes in between is so smooth, that it hasn’t diluted the western feel of the song. The tiny electronic beats enhance the beauty of the song, while keeping up the pace. Thought it gets a little slow during the verses, it is only to gives us enough time to absorb the meaning of the song, in the backdrop of a subtle beat.
This is a reflective song which talks about somebody’s unrealistic aspirations and may sound higher on sadness. But the music uplifts the mood and makes it interesting. The best way to enjoy the song is to hear it in pin drop silence. Of course..so is any song …:P
World Environment Day was remembered yesterday, being celebrated today and will be forgotten by tomorrow. Why should we huddle and discuss about this issue only today and not do our bit every day? Can we start acting (not reacting) about this perishing planet?
Mother Earth is the most beautiful of all planets and is gifted with livable conditions as compared to others. The increasing need to simplify our daily lives would be actually affecting our entire life and there wouldn’t be anything left for the generations to come.
The so called and claimed Green Earth will be extinct soon, if we do not act responsible.
The tree felling only to lay roads, the poison emitting industries, the plastic bandwagons, the deforestation, the infinite pollution unchecked vehicles are only a few which are endangering our homes. I agree that few aspects are beyond our abilities, but there are few more which are very much achievable at our level.
My pick is to ban plastic. I do not recommend using paper bags as a replacement, as they consume equal or more time as plastic to decompose.
- Let us use cloth bags and encourage others as well. This will help the diminishing society of handlooms.
- Let us spread the awareness of the devastating effects of plastic pollution. I am talking about the malls and the grocery stores!
- If someone is comfortable using the plastic bags, ask them to reuse those carry bags and not include any more to their stock of plastic items.
- Let us initiate a ‘Ban Plastic week’!
- Let us be responsible!
A million small droplets can surely make an ocean! Can we make a difference? Shoot your ideas to save our planet..our home!
