After penning some run-of-the mill lyrics for the previous number, Sandeep Srivastava redeems himself in 'O Meri Jaan', which could have easily fallen in the average bracket had it not been for some beautiful, and at times humorous lyrics - "Dil khudgarz hai, phisla hai phir ye haath se, kal uska raha, ab hai tera is raat se, o meri jaan."
Both versions, the one sung by K.K and the other, 'O Meri Jaan Reprise' by Suhail, have been beautifully rendered. The climax, where this soft love song takes the form of hard rock is praiseworthy. The chorus in the background also lends an air of romance to this love ballad.
For those who wanted more of James, especially after the mind blasting 'Alvida', he is up next with 'Rishtey', a philosophical, thought provoking situational track. With 'Rishtey' we get to hear a completely new style of singing by James and we are pleasantly surprised. His crooning, where he goes "Na, na, na," is infectious and so is the female back-up vocals (either Caralisa or Suzanne).
Former M.T.V. VJ, DJ Nikhil Chinappa and DJ Naved certainly deserve all the praise that they can get for 'Rishtey Revisited', as the original was flat and bland.
