I have seen many people here say DDD didn't have good music. I just want to know why it didn't work according to you? Is it because it didn't have those soulful tracks which usually are taken as hits? I loved DDD songs - they were fun to dance to & you wanted to sing along. On the other hand when I see Humari Adhuri Kahaani becoming a hit album I found the music too repetitive - no doubt the music was beautiful but all songs kinda sounded the same! & I pretty much remember only the title track when someone asks me if you have heard the album and not any of the other songs.

So what's your view? What defines a good music album? Soulful tracks with slow music or an overall package of all types of songs 😳

According to me? Then hit music would be music that I like.

The concept of music album is gone now. 99% of albums are only famous for one or two good songs, rest are just filler tracks. Long gone are the days where every or almost every song was loved by the audience.

If the music lifts up my mood it is good according to me.Also the album must have different flavours!

For me in recent time YJHD,Queen,Barfi were the perfect album! I love every song from these albums be it gujariya,Harjaiyan,,phir le aaya,aashiyan,Ilahi,balam pichkari

I din't like DDD songs found them boring... Gallan goodiya is exception I love it

TBH I don't like albums like Ashiqui2,Ek villain,HAK they are monotonous and boringSame old tune and each and every song is used frequently in every damn show that I loath them

Depends..I don think there is a set definition..And i don think you need mainstream dance numbers or those typical naach gaana type songs for an album to become a hit either..I know those kinda songs help to a great extent..YJHD for instance had half the hype thanks to the album but there are those albums like Barfi & Lootera too-they don have typical Bollywood songs yet i listen to a lot of those songs till date..

Any album whose atleast 75% of the songs I can even tolerate once the initial 'catchy tune-play it on loop for the next week' is over 😛
