I think IR should compose songs like bharathi..they were amazing songs - all times best of IR..and stop composing songs like ME,VM etc..I think if IR composes the same way as he did in the 80's - then that wuld be perfect..

//Its just that I feel that when a guy still has creative juices to attempt something like TIS at 60+ years of age he can probably do a little bit better in TFM.//
sorry dude...this just isnt going to happen...there just isnt anything in TFM (or any other FMs) to inspire IR to deliver something of the standard that you seem to be expecting...
I agree with Suresh about the expectations from IR's albums during the current period. Vijay, i used to be a lot like you are now waiting for an IR album with a zillion expectations about the tunes and interludes and general innovation. But i realized that this is not going to happen as he is no longer working with all the same top directors for whom he had produced those classics. My expectations have been toned down. I just try to enjoy songs as they are without my mind wandering into analysis. But i still have an ear for any new stuff he attempts.His classics may be sporadic now but we are fortunate that we get atleast one in a year or two which still shows the genius in him is still alive. I am a little excited with his recent work after his outstanding Virumandi last year , followed by MX( innovative interludes) and now a pretty decent ONOK(very hummable though not pathbreaking). Given the kind of directors he works with nowadays i am happy we get to hear atleast decent hummable stuff from him now and then. Eager to hear TIO and the next collaboration with Kamal(only he is left to inspire him now).
thops, not expecting something of TIS standards in TFM obviously. I am asking for "just a sprinkling" - likeGuru or Kochu Kochu santhoshangaL. I think he is capable, he is also doing less films these days - but practically I realize it might be a tall order considering the average quality of films he is working on. Unless MR/Shankar do films with IR and Kamal does couple of films with him every year it might be a distant dream. Bala, Cheran although good directors arent exactly known for their music sense. Whatever IR gives them is probably out of his own initiative.
I think 'kaattuvazhi' will be IR's representative song for this decade :) ... Excellent job by IR as MD / Singer and Lyricst also !

Nagas, "nambikkaithaan iru pakkamum karaigaLadaa ! " - andha namkikkai thaan konjam sandhehama irukku, esp after reading IR's interview in Vikadan where he says he felt there was no diff between composing for a TFM or TIS. But as always, he is full of contradiction when he says he has attained his life's worth by composing for TIS. Onnume puriyallai IR ai pathi.
thumburu, I see it like this.
What he means in Vikatan interview is that musically speaking, composing for TFM and TIS are the same for him. Its all sapthaswarangal only for him.
As far as TIS is concerned, he is glad that God had given him an opportunity to understand and tune the lyrics of Thiruvasakam and he doesnt need anything more in life, after he attained this place.
Thats what I was thinking in the last few days. Why dont MR/Shankar go for IR, specially Shankar. There is nothing wrong with ARR. ARR has given nothing but best for shankar, but atleast to show some differences between films Shankar has to work with IR. Ofcourse what he would get is a world class, undisputed BGM. I am just recalling Ramana's (a typical Shankar style movie) BGM here.Quote:
