Not that bad though.
I don't get it. Seems like a fair review.Quote:

thanks for pointing out raja_fan
It is all matter of taste. We must not forget that the reviews we read are actually reflections of the taste of the authors. And he is right from his end, because he is entitled to like and appreciate what he likes.Quote:

A critical review is not just another mere opinion. At least it ought not to be that way. Though every review is subjective and does get influenced by the author's preferences and prejudices, one reads a critical review not as yet another viewpoint from sundry.
['Should one consider reviews from BW, rediff etc as reviews at all in the first place?' is a different issue]
A critic is supposed to offer view points and insights that we lay persons might not have thought of. Actually, it IS just another view point ultimately, but one that may be more nuanced.
It is clear from the Behindwoods 'review' that it is clearly not a critical review but just another view point. I would ignore it but would not accept it as a good review
Got the CD today :redjump: :bluejump: :musicsmile:
Rightly said. what i said is actually the crux..which is contained in the last statement of yours. Behindwoods need not be taken that seriously. It is just another review...:)Quote:

But I like that song. Om Sivoaham is wonderful song in the genre it sits. It is 'Kannil Paarvai' which is my pick of album since it gives 'the feel' to me.
I wonder how the album gives unique feel though one song (tune) composed some 20+ years before and with another 10 year old song. That is one of the reasons of victory of this album. But at the same time on the whole I am slightly disppointed since no 'Ilangaathu veesuthey' kind of song (I was expected).
I read somewhere NK will have fun scenes same like Pithamagan had. If Bala can put humour why should not give place for a feel free song like 'Ilangaathu veesuthey'?.
