Swamigal :notworthy: for my turn around on Ennodu Va Va
P.S: Why is the 1st interlude so very familiar? It's a bit from that fantastic heart-melting title score from ASK

"Vaanam Mella" - Delightful chorus prelude. Like the pallavi and the backing music throughout. So lush.
The charanam tune is a trifle disappointing, though. Engeyo poirukkalaamo?
"Pengal Endraal" - for the first time now. Why were people trashing this?? OK, i'm not launching into superlatives yet (too early) but i was expecting something worse than Pudikkala Maamu. This sounds interesting. Yuvan sounds better in this than "Saaindhu Saaindhu".
peNgaL enRAl - opening sari illa.. but Yuvan sings 'enna solla...", that part is good.. but it is very very non-IR composition... :shock:
The bass/chords at the end of the pallavi, just before the first interlude is so wicked. Raaja :shock: The charanam was going just so-so till, "madhi ketta ennidam, maNam (sic) nondhu sonnadhu" makes it better.Quote:

COLOSSAL. :bow: Blue meth! Raaja... TFM's Heisenberg! :smokesmirk:
As a Raaja old-timer, I can't seem to emotionally 'connect' to some of the songs. But this sense of variety and diversity, IMO, are essentially the album's USP.
"I've got all bases covered. Time for you to cover yours" the album appears to scream to the cynics. One can sense the poor little creatures being cornered and squealing. : pity:.

Why isn't EVERYONE just going on and on about 'vAnam mella' and leave everything else aside? Stumbled on it just a while ago, having listened to the other songs earlier. Finished raving on twitter. And it's still in loop. Just started playing it again and kaNNu lEsA shake Ayiduchchu (panikkallAm illa). Beautiful, beautiful prelude, pallavi!
:lol: This is Anban's clear favorite tooQuote:

The orchestration is so delicately woven here.
