dochu,
What you say is right as far as Tamil is concerned. From whatever I hear his music does well in Malayalam going by the awards and number of people who sing the songs in the singing competitions.
rajasaranam had a good way of putting it earlier. In Tamil, Raja being a near retired MD, in Telugu a retired MD, in Malayalam a super hit MD and in Kannada an upcoming MD :) There is lot of truth in what RS said and I am sure the songs of 'Nannavanu' would get some decent air time. As for how the movie would do, well ... the hero nor the heroine offer any great hope :(

Thanks RS for the treasure :D :clap: :notworthy:
Tracks 2 and 3 which are based on the hero have wonderful energy. Yes they may be synth but the orchestration is the highlight here. There is certainly some improvisation from the very kiddish styled hero songs IR used to give us a few movies back(maybe he got bored for those). You can feel the energy that vidiya vidiya nadanam had in these two songs. Some trendish stuff here as well.
The rest of the songs are probably nothing(according to IR standards) for IR except for the fifth track, the wonderfully trans-folk-carnatic crossing song Om sivoham. Like RS said this is a medley of styles. Pick of the soundtrack. Yet it still sounds so rajaish. :notworthy:

Hulk,
Track 3 orchestration is top notch! especially the first interlude is out of the world :)

Yennathu Gangulya? :shock: Seri vidunga padam nalla irukkum, athu nambalaam.
Yes RS, Interludes are where thalaivar is going full gear(the interlude you mentioned had some middle eastern style towards the end) :bluejump: . I think the grouse for most of the negative brigade personnel is the tune and i think the energy of the tune matches the orchestration. If they mention synth as a reason then they can lock themselves up with their 80s thoughts. :evil:
We still have Mathiya Chennai and Chal Chalein coming up. :D

"with only the rhythmic beats holding it together till the end" I could say this for Rahman very many times. Just because that guy sells into the new trend it is not really right to crow over a fallen giant. BTW, IR cannot and did not ever give a hit in all movies all the time. It is because he is much more original building his song from scratch. Naturally, it is difficult to get a hit all the time.
One muttu muthamma is equivalent to 5 songs built with off-the-shelf rhythms, IMHO.
Hmm..continue your esteemed music service :-(

my comment there (will mostly get deleted by moderators)
raju shanbag - did you write the review under high spirits (after a rave party bash perhaps?)…this is an excellent album with ilaiyaraaja scoring in terms of melody based songs, western songs, hardcore carnatic and spicy tribal interludes within a carnatic song. Forget about anyone nuding raaja out….if you rreviews continue to be as poor as this, you will soon be nudged out for your lack of real music appreciation. God save this review section from half boiled reviews such as these. My two cents !
