fan_ir,
You are perfectly right. 'manasoram' does have the 'pudhu pourname' feel. One reason why skr would have got the Mohanam feel. And Katrinai Polingu does cry out for real orchestra. It is a very short song but if a real orchestra was used and a bigger song was created, the impact would have been terrific. I think Raja created a far better similar type of song in 'Gayam 2' by using the synth. To be this pales before the 'Gayam 2' song "ramarajyam" but nevertheless you can feel the impact.

Out of the many Raja albums that are expected to release this year,i feel Ayyan is one which had kind of least expectations when compared to Shri Rama Rajyam,Padithurai,Sathyan Anthikadu movie etc..
For that i would say its a very decent album with one brilliant song Manasoram and 2 pretty good songs Kaatrinai and Viduthalai..I would probably rate this album as satisfactory.
-
I find Enakkena Oruthi the most engaging... Retro trumpet and folkish flute (prelude), breathtaking first interlude, and a soothing anupallavi. What more could one ask for?
I feel as if Rahul Nambiyar has modulated his voice along the lines of Rekka Katti Parakthu.

Deferred to listen Ayyan songs for Friday evening without much distraction.
Enekenna Oruthi - Beautiful tune and amazing prelude and interludes. I second Sunil on this song. Only conern is the percussion/rhythm in charanams, could have been better. "unakkaaga usirellam uruguthu maane" line beautifully sung by Rahul. IMHO, That's the highlight of the song. My pick of the album.
While the prelude of Enekena Oruthi is upbeat, but Manasoram is rather subtle.
Manasoram is already popular here, nothing more to say, excellent song, except that I anytime prefer chitra/shreya's voice instead of Sadhana. Her voice at higher octaves resembles 'aged' Asha.
Raja's song is always special to me. This one again pulls the heart string just like Kalagane from Gaayam-2. Neha also has sung well. Very meaningful lyrics. it would have been little longer.
Kaatrinai, Beautiful composition, Tipu impresses , but need more, very short song.
Ye Sivagami, starts as if it is a serious 'Maariyamma' song, but it turns out to be a fun song when Rahul starts 'Sevagami'. A surprise. Pallavi and Anupallavi sounds good. Interludes are vintage Raja. That urumi sounds like someone is saying 'hmm'. Very lively! Lyrics could have been better.
Unmaiya Naan not much impressive, but it is not a passable song for me, either.
Maestro never disappointed me so far, and Ayyan is again no exception. Not bad at all, but we cannot compare this to mighty Pazhassi Raja, Paa, Nandhalala or Naan Kadavul. This has its own limitation only known to Maestro and the director, but with the limitations, I feel Maestro did his best, that too three years before. :thumbsup:

புதுசா
புத்தம் புதுசா
நித்தம் ஒரு மெட்டு
இளசா ரொம்ப இளசா
பூத்ததே இந்த மொட்டு
மயக்குதே
மனசோரம் அந்த பாட்டு
இரவிலே அது எங்களின் தாலாட்டு
உன் பாடல்
தினம் கேட்டு
தானே வளர்ந்தோம்
தேன் குடித்த வண்டாய்
எங்கும் பறந்து திரிவோம்
இசையே உந்தன் இசையே
என்றென்றும்
எமை இயக்கும் விசையே
ஆயிரம் அவதாரம்
நீ எடுத்தாய்
பல்லாயிரம் பாமாலை
நீ தொடுத்தாய்
ராஜனே இளைய ராஜனே
தமிழிசையின் மார்கண்டேயனே
அய்யனே எங்கள் அய்யனே
விருதுகள் ஏன் இனி உனக்கு
பெற்றாலும் பெருமை அவைதனுக்கு

Manasoram is too good.. typical Raja free flowing tune..
-
Manasoram has feel of "Kathal mayakkam..." from Pudhumai penn, as well as "Kodamanjin..." from Kochu kochu santhoshangal.
-
The manasoram song's charanam leads me to "Kovil mani osai thannai..." from Kizhakke pogum rail...
Are these of same raga ?

Yes raja_fan. All the songs you mentioned are based on Suddha Saveri
