Coke Studio At MTV Season 2 - Episode 4 - Longing by Nitin Sawhney

799 views

This is a song about crossing to a different shore and how the Boatman is the guiding spirit who ferries people across the river. It talks about how the boatman is the only beacon of light amidst the swirling darkness of the river. And about how his presence gives migrants a sense of hope & calm.
This is a recurring theme in Nitin's set because he was brought up in different countries and considers his parents to have migrated similarly; wherein they were taken across the river to start afresh in a new land..

    Coke Studio At MTV Season 2 - Episode 4 - Sunset by Nitin Sawhney

    Sunset is a song about rising up and standing up for oneself. It's about keeping the faith that dusk is followed by bright, flaming dawn. It's also about keeping one's head above the water and never losing faith in oneself. And never hesitating to stand up for what one believes is right.
    This song is loosely based on Nitin's life in South Africa, where he went to school. The song showcases an element of alienation that one feels in a strange, new land. And the clashes that are inevitable because of power equations that form when different cultures come together.

    Coke Studio At MTV Season 2, Episode 1 - Chaddh De by Clinton Cerejo

    An introspective song, Chaddh De flows like a river. The song is about letting go of desires. It talks about how futile it is to fret over desires or wants when your time on earth is limited. It's about the futility of trying to control life when everybody's place is preordained and nothing one does can ever change that.
    It was written by Lyricist Manoj during a low & depressive phase of his life. The lyrics literally mean 'oh fool let go' (of your desires). Clinton includes a remarkable string section in this song with the cello playing a prominent role.

    Mauje Naina is a dark song sung by a man who cheats on his wife. In this song he sings about his new lover and his feelings for her, all the while torn by those very feelings. He describes her irresistible aura and how she's playing with his heart & emotions. The female vocals however are very seductive and attempt to entice the man. This sensuality is evenly matched by the helplessness & doubt in the male vocals. The dhol section takes centre stage in this haunting track.
