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.

    This is an original composition by Hitesh & is about a girl trying to push her lover to affirm his feelings for her. While both of them love each other, they have very different styles of acknowledging the same. Alisha Batth's Punjabi leanings blend seamlessly with Vijay Prakash's strong Caranatic vocals to give this song a truly unique feel.
    Hitesh believes that the lovers are basically two sides of the same coin. While their approaches maybe different, their core emotions are the same. Musically, since this song is about love & intimacy, Hitesh has maintained a romantic, mellow

    This track grew organically from the rehearsal space based on a basic melodic structure by Karsh. It talks about everyday life and the trials involved. It urges one to step back periodically to question oneself and see where one's headed.

    Musically, Jayant sets an electronica groove which the band complements seamlessly. Ravi Chari's sitar parts sound magical over what is essentially a drum + bass palette, further highlighted by Shruti Pathak's vocals.

    Sufism goes beyond religion and talks about true love for the Almighty. One doesn't need to visit the temple or the mosque to pray to god, but can do that with an honest plea from anywhere. This song has great positive energy to it and Hitesh Sonik wanted an honest and happy voice to sing it. On hearing the Nooran sisters, he was sure that this would be a great partnership! The Nooran sisters were also part of the iconic track Tung Tung from MTV Sound Trippin. This spiritual song has a subliminal energy thanks to their raw and rustic voices. Through the addition of drums and Balabhaskar

    A reworking of Leonard Cohen's classic song by the same name, Karsh's version is about the pain and glory of love. For this version, he enlists guitarist Warren Mendonsa's songwriting skills and incorporates the instrumental portion of Warren's 'Ode to a Sunny Day' which seemed to thematically match the mood of 'Halleluiah'.

    Shilpa Rao comes in on the Hindusthani bits with echoes of 'Jhoola', a song she grew up on. The beautiful song is marked by an epic guitar solo by Warren.
