But I guess given the competition, Rehman still had the best songs. If you had any Hans Zimmer soundtrack competing with Rehman this time, Rehman probably wouldn't have won it.

He was excellent for a long time, but since the last 4-5 years very few of his songs stick to memory. I heard the two songs played in the Oscars yesterday and I can't even remember what they sounded like. I can't remember the tunes of the Ghajini songs, I remember only one song from Guru (for which he won "Best Music Director") and I remember the songs from Jodhaa Akbar only because I happened to hear them a few times by accident.
