All the tracks in the album takes U off on a journey. a journey to explore the story of the two souls in RNBDJ. who are conceived as an ordinary couple with an extraordinary love story.
Tujhme rab Dikhta hai(Roop Kumar Rathore)
First track comes out musically as a soft note straight out of a beloved's heart. *Santoor *and *Tabla *beats rule the music in the song. It adds a spicy touch to the softy when the lyrics play along and whisper passion. This song is a romantic melody with a mix of musical notes from elegant era. it takes with it into a world of soft romance. where passion rules.
tu hi to jannat meri
tu hi mera junoon
tu hi to mannat meri
tu hi rooh ka sukun
tu hi ankhiyon ki thandak
tu hi dil ki dastak
. and we are left with a cold thought.
He loves her so much. does She reciprocates?

Haule Haule(Sukhwinder Singh)
The second track brings with it the best thing about love. Falling in Love. The song artistically captures the excitement of a beloved to make the girl fall for him. but at the same time he knows that patience is what he has to keep.
A dulcet number showcasing a man's conversation with his own heart. which sure will create a convivial atmosphere.
It says that love will happen one day.
It exhorts us to live in the moment and not to worry about falling in love or finding love.
The music beats in this song are completely Indian. With lively music notes coming out of a Bass again with *tabla *and *dholak *beats.
tu sabr to kar mere yaar
zara saans to le dildaar
chal fikr ne goli maar.
yaar. hai din zindadi de chaar.
haule haule ho jaayega pyar
chaliya.
haule haule ho jaayega pyar
. and we are now quite impressed with this ordinary Man as.
He is ready to wait for her. and have confidence that love will happen one day. so much faith He has in his love.

Dance pe Chance(Sunidhi Chauhan)*
Third track take the focus off from the lovey dovey scenario. and we are transported into a set up where there is lots of electrica along with bhangra beats. and feel like hitting the dance floor.
wo banda hi kya jo naache na gaaye.
aa haatho mein tu hath thaam le.
dance pe chance maar le.
tu ban gaya hep soniya.
This song celebrates dance. It will go on to become a great dancing number after the movie releases and the music of the movie catches up with the listeners.
. and we are left wondering.
dancing.? where is love gone? love gone for a toss? Is dancing playing a cupid this time?

Phir Milenge Chalte Chalte(Sonu Nigam)
Fourth track is a revisit to some of the popular love songs of the golden era. The revisit is not strictly a remix and is not even boasting any originality. There is a very thin line between being original and remixing a song. and this song is based on that very thin line.
It is a collage of old Bollywood songs with a little bit of lyrics, little bit of music and little bit of attitude taken straight out of the old movies. But the flavor is still very much original.
har janam mein
rang badal ke
khwabo ke pardo pe hum khil ke
hum hai raahi pyaar ke
phir milenge chalte chalte
. and we can see our eyes getting wide in anticipation.
Are we gonna witness comic moments? What will happen when comedy will meet Yashraj magic.

Tujhme rab Dikhta hai(Shreya Ghoshal)
Fifth track is a reprise version of the first track in female voice. Gloomy notes and soft rendition makes a perfect setting for a lonesome to think about romantic moments.
na kuch poocha
na kuch maanga
tune dil se diya jo diya
na kuch bola
na kuch tola
muskurake diya jo diya
tu hi dhoop
tu hi chaaya
tu hi apna paraya
.and we are enthralled and elated to see.
A soft reciprocation from the girl. But a nostalgic touch to the song makes us feel . where is He? Why is She so dull and sad.
Will it showcase Happy Ending?

Dancing Jodi(Salim-Sulaiman)
Sixth track is the theme of RNBDJ. The theme of Yashraj movies is usually based on lots of piano and guitar but this time focus is more on the fusion. It has lots of bhangra *beats, *tabla, *santoor *. and all Indian instruments.

?So?
Yes! I loved the music of this album. Many say that it is not typical Yashraj type. Yes I agree. but Yashraj is trying to be different this time. and so he has also experimented with music. The experiment means that he has gone a bit away from the conventional. and so obviously would not have much acceptance. But I am sure the music will catch up after the movie releases.
As for comparisons sake. unfortunately, the music is low when compared to previous Yashraj movies. So my rating is 9\10. One less than perfect only because this album has only two love songs. and yes. the typical Yashraj mushy numbers are also missing.

Just two LOVE Songs are enough for this Extra Ordinary Love Story?
We will have to wait and watch.
