Sinbad The Sailor - Rock On!!

Playback - Farhan Akhtar & Raman Mahadevan

Music - Shankar - Ehsaan - Loy

Lyrics - Javed Akhtar

Sinbad the Sailor is the last song which the band "Magik" in the film performs.. it's their last big chance and they did a wonderful job of it.

The lyrics don't make much sense to me.. but I just like the beats and the music in this track.
It's fast and fun! If you've watched the film, there's a moment where Purab Kohli (K.D. - Killer Drummer) starts playing the drums just before Arjun Rampal enters to perform - that moment was indeed killer.. very nice and very well done!

Uske the jo sapne, wohi uske the apne
Aisa tha Sinbad the sailor, sailor
Uske the jo sapne, wohi uske the apne
Aisa tha Sinbad the sailor, sailor

... are the nice and energetic lines of the song... love the music!

To add to this there's another version of Tum Ho Toh in this song.. which is brilliant!
This version is sung by Farhan Akhtar & Raman Mahadevan (he sang Kholo Kholo from Taare Zameen Par) + the eeee (by F.A.) + a lot of the electronic guitar.. an absolute delight!

I'd like to say - well done S - E - L :)

I think Sindbad was a metaphor for the members of Magik. If you believe that, the lyrics will make sense to you.
