IR's New albums - Ver 2008

IR is over the hill and his creativity now is water under the bridge.

It is very painful to listen to his crappy songs these days after having been an ardent fan of his for the last 30 years.

His songs sound too predictable and sometimes I get the feeling that he is copying from his own run off the mill tunes.

With Kamal deserting him for his much aclaimed MY - which IR could perceive as rats deserting a sinking ship -, I think IR is left with no option but to call it quits. Otherwise, as it happens in this cruel world, he will be put to pasture as he is a has-been. So, Dhanam could very well be his swan song.

When people here are worried that Dhanam does not deserve the excellent tunes provided by IR, this guy says IR has to quit the field just because Kamal deserted him..

Let Kamal wander like a ghost from one MD to another..Why should IR quit ? :banghead:

Hi Vem,

You must be a masochist! to continue listening to IR songs when it is causing you so much pain???????

Do yourself a favour and stop listening to IR songs. Who the hell are you to suggest IR to quit? Even his father would not have that right.....

People with good taste for music still appreciate his high quality amazing tunes/melodies improvisations etc etc (even at this age!). Please select and listen to music as your taste suits; not too difficult to understand what kind of taste that it......

Cheers!

Why should he quit? IR has better directors to work with, Bala, Mysskin and probably with Ameer. If you get frustrated with projects like Dhanam, no one can help you.

Thats wat... no one in the right frame of mind will ask him to quit... but fans are frustrated... the one song like 'nirpathuve" in bharathi
"ilangaathu" from pithaamagan is missing no one can deny that too... at this stage only gud directors can inspire him... saw the movie
" subramanyapuram' and the song "siru ponmani" cudnt help tears... wat a amazing tune!!! sounds fresh even today...

Well, i also think on the same lines, but quite often, he springs back with a surprise...be it a Cheeni Kum or the recent Uliyin Osai. I dont see a reason why he should quit. Bad films for IR is not something new. He did bad films earlier too. But the point here is about the music.He really needs a director wtih good taste, insisting on what IR is best at..acoustic instrument music.Who knows, that might happen. Till then...if u like an album, add it to your collexn, else...discard it.
I wish IR does instrumental albums.

Ajantha (kannada version) expected for sep18th release...source:bangalore mirror

[quote="raja_fan"]" Do any body here or yahoo fan club have contacts with his assistant / manager ?

Yahoo fan clubla oru album sari ellai enru sonal ..neenga gali..ur posts wud be deleted or u wud be brought under moderation..

And also i dont think none of us have the guts to go and talk to IR regarding this simply because we lack musical talent

For example if u go and tell him dhanam nalla ellai, he will ask enna nalla ellai...we simply cannot explain...he wud reply back to u telling that he did this and that which for u wud be greek and latin..

U can ask him to create more instrumental albums but even for that we have to ensure that people buy it..>TIS was a good example.

Another observation on 'abhinayam kAttukindRa' song (if wrong, others please correct me):

It appears that IR wants to prove "purists" that he is also one, by leaving out his favourtie toy - the bass guitar - for this song :-)

The closest song that I can compare with this is 'azhagu malarAda' of vaidhEhi kAthirundhAL, which scores over this in both the above aspects of my observation viz.

1. Regular movie playback singer used instead of carnatic singer(s)
2. Phenomenal bass-guitar scores that are trade mark of IR

I've posted sometime back about 'pAttucholli, pAdachcholli' too does not have bass guitar which would have taken it to greater levels.

In his prime period, no IR song will be without the prominent bass backing which we're so accustomed to (and the successful MD's of today like ARR, VS & HJ use freely as well). In fact, this was one of the major differentiators of IR from his illustrious predecessors.

Alas, nowadays he has probably gone into a "purist" mode that he doesn't use in many songs. Or is there any other reason?
