Again, what is typical Tamil song? one with good lyrics, nice gramia flavour?, using known tamil instruments like urimi, thavil etc?
If you condemn people for liking genre used to enhance tamil flavour, sorry, you should not be proud of it.
i think he is referring to the many gaana songs that sound EXACTLY the same and those remixes. I dont have a problem with gaana. but i do have a problem with remixes and i especially have a problem when MD get fame for remixes. How can they? they didnt make the music, if anything only the lyricist should be appreicated for remixes not MDs. recent example, karupaana kaiyaala something song, a remix of a devotional song. We have to value our religion/custom. A devotional song must not be condemned like that!
thineshan,
I am talking about Gaana per se, Tamil music has been produced good all these years, typical may not be the right word, but probably something along the lines of "current trend of remixes in tamil movies" or something like that. btw all rap albums sound the same, there is some variations, but the defacto standard is applied. so Gaana sounding the same is no suprise, it is a genre and should be appreciated for it.
Let us not digress this too much. hope you understand what I am trying to tell.
Guys,
I am a big fan of ARR and have listened to Sivaji songs innumerable times.
I am being objective and here is my assessment:
* Loved two songs - Bailelakka and Sahaana
I think Bailelakka is probably the best intro song for Rajini.
Sahaana is very good but would not come in the top 10 ARR songs.
The rest are very ordinary including Aitheree. I really do not see anything special in the rest of the songs.
Overall, a very average album. I think considering the high standards set by ARR-Shankar combo, this effort is way too short.
ARR has disappointed and I am surprised, Shankar okayed these songs.
MusicIsLife:
i understand MusicIsLife. I like gaana song too, but not in excessive dose. Maybe there are many others like me and rookie is probably one of them. But I do understand what you are trying to say tho.
Sunnyg:
I take it that this is your first post. Welcome to the group. You have started your hubbing journey with an appreciative first post --> "The rest are very ordinary including Aitheree. I really do not see anything special in the rest of the songs."
Hope you will see something special in the album. Maybe we will help you see that special thing that you cant see yet.
Good luck to you. Hope you enjoy it here.
Sunnyg, I can understand what you are saying. The songs in Rajini films are always going to have a limited scope. There's an intro song, hero glorification, one or two romantic songs, not much besides that. Within those parameters, Shankar's influence has infused some hipness and modernity into the music, and hopefully into the film. Its not one of my favorite Shankar-ARR albums, but considering that its a Rajini film Sivaji is a very good album.
Two main complaints about the album:
Vaaji Vaaji- starts off beautifully, but settles into the usual dholak beats. Even Hariharan sounds uncomfortable here.
Sahana- Beautiful composition and female singing, but Udit Narayan's pronunciation is horrible. At times I can't even understand what he is saying. That must be why the CD comes with a lyric book :)
Other than that the songs are really hip and rocking. I particularly love Style, which is a highly unusual song. I wonder how Lawrence has choreographed this, with such erratic beats. I'm sure he has done well.
a week ago i would have agreed and doubled ur complaint on vaaji, but now its my favourite track. Dont know why, its so simple but something catches me in that song.
When it's ONLY a ARR+Shankar album, ARR is expected to give 50% effort and Shankar anotehr 50%...
But when it's Rajni+ARR+Shankar, Rajni will deliver 50% on his own. ARR will add another 25% and Shankar 25%.
Keep it to simple business logic, when the product can sell on its own, why spend so much on marketing it? Agree?
lemme give u a positive points in ur complaints against the album...[my opinion ofcource...]Quote:

Yen Jeevan nee Sivaji..." and "Wahji Wahji Wahji..." .. in this song,if u ask me... Rahman has fully given the responsibilty to Shankar to make the song sounds good esp to many people ... when other tracks clearly showed its power on the listenin section itself...
Sahana... to tell u the truth...im sure MANY will agree with me... in his entire history in Tamil songs... this is his BEST song ...wut i mean was his pronounsation ....he never did sounded better & tamilish in any of his songs b4.... i could understood him on the 1st listenin itself... without the help of lyrics....sad we Malaysian wasnt gifted with the help of the lyrics book...
when i 1st heard Sunlight song... that line " Appo naan veccha karupay..." i taut it was " Appo naam PICCHA kaaRempit "
rempit is the motorist who haves races in KL city in late nites here in malaysia... :lol:.. i taut he said he was a begger rempit :P :lol2:...
i know it sounds illogical, but yea...when i 1st heard the song,it sounded like that :P ... and after checking the lyrics online, now i know its VECCHA karupay " :P
The Boss lyrics is just absurd " Podavai Vaangi Kattikodha " and " Punche vaccha Idly thanda "... such lyrics for a high class movie Sivaji ??? :roll:
nope united.... its like this :Quote:

Thalapathy is more of an MR album than a Rajini album.
thimuru All Rajni Intro are Remains :)
I feel thalapathy was best ever for RK by IR, similarly shivaji will stand the test of time for ARR

from the movie are ROCKIN...... :roll:
If you guys listen the song, "Style", it is a trendstter ..not the same typical
tamil music....
What I mean by "typical song" is: look at some of the output for this year, most of them
are recycled ....
Examples:
· Urchagam
· Naan Avanillai
· Nee Naan Nila
· Madurai Veeran
· Karupasamy Kuthagaithaara...
· Mayakkannadi
· Ninaithu Ninaithu Parthen
· Thiru Ranga
· Cinemakkaran
· Vettai Arambham
· Oru Oorla
· Ninaithalae
· Koodal Nagar
· Muni
· Kannum Kannum
· Pori
· Oru Ponnu Oru Paiyan
· Maanavan
· Thamirabarani
· Thoovaanam
· Aalwar
· Rendu
· Sivappathikaram
· Thiruvilayadal Aarambam
· "E"
· Vattaram
· Em Mahan
· Thimiru
· Nenjil Jil Jil ..the list keep going
The only once..I like this year are: Chennai 600028, Mozhie and some other once...it's very
rare to see good songs these days....not saying there are not any...
SivaJi stands above any of these or for the last 3 years or so....
the songs are very different and *appeals to everyone around the world...not
just for India (South) ....the main point of the whole movie is to have the International
FEEL and the songs alone have proved that....Since I live in Canada, I have many
international friends...Just to see how the song's level are; I picked some of my friends
from variuous countries: Canada, America, Japan, China, India (NORTH ),
Friends from Canada and America really like three songs: Balleilakka and Style and Athirade
Japan: Style and Athirade
China: Sahaanaa
India(North): Style and Vaaji vaaji vaa ....
Some of my North Indian friends, are waiting for the movie as well...
They already know that SS is the #2 highest paid actor next to Jackie Chan...but they
never seen him on movies.....
I showed them some of the NDTV interview and how people are going GA GA over
the movie songs and the movie.....and now they are into it to BIG TIME.....
They keep asking me when the movie is going to release ... :)
Also, I am not KAMAL HATER EITHER.....
Michel Madhan Kama Rajan....Kadhal Kahdhal (watched it more then 30 times 8-) ), Thanali...Pancha ....
Pumbal K Sum....are some of mine all time fav ... AND ohh yeah WATING big time for the release of DASA... 8-)
ask a typical rajnifan...Quote:

It varies dude! For me, it's ORUVAN ORUVAN from Muthu... Even though I love Raakamma and Puthuvaaga and many more intro songs of Rajini! But I know where you're goin with this... It's obvious that IR has a MAJOR role in the success of Rajini movies right from the late 70s till the early 90s... The same goes for Kamal movies too! :DQuote:

I dint mean that, please :)Quote:

Deva was awesome, he did batsha and thats probably the best Rajini movie according to his HC fans. No one can deny that and even I enjoyed batsha 8-)
ARR had tremendous pressure, I mean Rajini is the numero uno in tamil films industry and he had to satiate his fanbase and IMO he has done perfect justice to that in muthu, padayappA and sivaji. No complaints on him at all 8-)
Hi peepz 8-)
Sayanora gathers applause
IndiaGlitz [Saturday, April 28, 2007]
As the audio of Sivaji has become a rage in Tamil Nadu and Kerala, one of the singers is jumping with Joy in her home town in Kerala.
The one family in Kerala that has personal reasons to celebrate this success- is Sayonara’s. The Singer from Kerala had sung a song in the album that too the opening numbers with A R Rahman.
For this song, starting Adiradi Kaadhal Machcham..., Sayonara had modulated her voice more like Shakira.
After recording the Tamil version, the music director tried to bring someone else to sing the song in it Telugu version, but very soon he realized that the voice wasn't as good as Sayonara's.
Eventually, she sang the song in Telugu too. Now both the songs are reigning the charts.
Sayanora has earlier worked with A R Rahman in many projects. She was in the lead of Rahman's Bosnian album, and also worked as a chorus singer in Manirathnam's Guru. Then she sung songs for Sillunu Oru Kadhal, its Telugu version, and a yet-to-be released Hindi film 'Jane Kyon'.
As she has become a regular with Rahman, She will join him, when he tours the US and Canada this summer for music shows.
Sayanora debuted into filmdom with the song that she has sung for Malayalam movie Manjupoloru Penkutty in the music of Alphonse.
Recently she had sung two songs for the Malluwood Vishu hits Chotta Mumbai and Big B.
