Himesh Reshammiya and Emraan Hashmi created history when they came together in Aashiq Banaya Aapne. The same fate couldn't be repeated though in Dil Diya Hai which came last year. On the other hand, Subhash Ghai has one super success musical score with Reshammiya in 36 China Town though their association in Shaadi Se Pehle didn't come up with even remotely similar results.
With Good Boy Bad Boy, both Hashmi and Ghai come together with Reshammiya for the third time. Sadly, the outcome is hardly exciting with the soundtrack turning out to be pretty routine with nothing much for a listener to hum around once the album is through.
Welcome to an album that has all but one songs crooned by Himesh Reshammiya with lyrics by Sameer. In the times when even die hard Reshammiya fans are looking for variety in his albums (this is exactly the reason why the music of Namastey London is a smash hit while Shakalaka Boom Boom too met with a decent response), it is not really a good idea for the composer/singer to be exposed. Still, one can settle for an excuse here that the film has been around one and a half year in the making and hence the music comes from the time when Reshammiya had just started getting full throttle into the singing business.
The album opens with the title song 'Good Boy Bad Boy' which is actually the weakest offering out of four unique numbers in the album. Trying to be all cool, hip and happening, Reshammiya creates one of the most lukewarm tracks in his post 'Aashiq Banaya Aapne' era as he pairs up with Akriti Kakkar to croon a campus number.
