talk about maturity....

anyway, people have a right to express their feelings about anything (esp something they paid for). But to come to a forum like this and make a blank statement like "I did not like it" is really immature. We are not conducting a poll here. If you wanted feedback you could have said what you didn't like, and ask other people's opinion about it. If all you wanted was to releive some steam because you felt you wasted your money, then you must really find a relevent forum for that.

Different people appreciate TiS at different levels, and after reading several posts here, my appreciation for it has been enhanced by inputs from others. Maybe if you read them you will find what you missed on the first listening. Please learn to use the forum effectively.

if it is AR fan , i can be least bothered abt what u said ...but being IR fan how can anybody dont like this album..i am surprised and eager to know what u dint like ....is it IR Singing or is it the tunes , or is it the perfection or its just like u are eating a banana imagining a mango and saying the mango is not good....

at one end we all are so mad abt that album that our fingers tremble with extreme respect when we hold the CD to put it....

Overall, I am very disappointed. I rate How to Name It and Nothing but Wind very high in my list. Something that deserves more attention internationally. I expected the same kind of output in TIS. I felt as if I am listening to some tamil movie songs.

I understand this forum is there really to promote IRs work. I wish u all the best for the success of this album.

I agree that TiS sounds filmy when you compare it with HTNI. But I don't think that thats a bad thing - the standard IR has set for "filmy" is incredebly high, so it is actually a compliment. IR had to make this album more appealing and thus had to cover the technical complexity with more appealing tunes - but that does not mean the technical complexity is not there. Listen to the last part of "polla vinayen", where it goes "eesan adi potri...; neyatthe nindra...; seerar perundhurai nam..." the changes between these lines is amazing. Listen to the choral humming in "umbagarkarase", or listen to the scale changes in "putril vazh" (there was a very good post on this song in this forum). All these clearly display his virtuosity.

However, you cannot compare number by number between HTNI and TiS. There is no match in TiS for the counterpoint of "you cannot be free" or "is it fixed" from HTNI (the first one is particularly mind boggling). Try to listen to TiS for what it is, and I'm sure you'll begin to appreciate it. Personally, I rate HTNI above TiS, but I also love TiS.

But IR is very happy and terms it as his best works.....maybe he got a reason...actually if u concentrate and listen to the symphonic backings of IR voice, they are really huge masterpieces goin un noticed since they are at background.....which might be mightier than NBW or HTNI which is why IR feels its the best .....

often its happens with IR songs...

there will be different synchronizing tunes in the background which will go unnoticed...one day my friend played ELANGATRU VEESUDHE song ....but his tape repcorder is spoiled and some main sounds are heard less and backdrop music is heard in high...then i observed lots of completly reusable new tunes hidden behind the main tune.....and the ending music also was very different and grand compared to actual song...thanks to the spoilt audio system...
thats why right from my childhood i used to beleive, any MD can take one IR song and create some 4 songs from it ....

I had a similar experience with TiS...My headfone wasn't plugged in properly, and Raja's voice seemed almost muted...But the joy of listening to the chorus & the orchestra in the FG and Raja's voice in the BG was just amazing...I in fact thought the CD had gone bad...and just as i was about to take it out of the player, i realized it wasn't plugged in properly...I tried emulating that mistake but unfortunately it never happened again :-(

I am also disppointed, coz, njv has deleted his reply :rotfl:

yeah and in my PC got the AC97 AUDIO CONFIGURATION which has many options in sound effects ...like normal, auditorium, bathroom , long pipe , car parking , mountains etc.....so i listen in all different modes so that i can hear some hidden gems...

in similar way i wisha there is a way to control the speed of the song.....anybody know ???? coz some songs we feel will be very nice if very fast...some very slow ...

IR rise from ashes? I didn't even know that his music or he was burned out or burned down......

As far as I know, both his music & him have been standing upright solid eversince 1976.
