The first song is a nice song sung by Illayaraja and Bhela Shinde. The second and third song are more synth dominated songs. The fourth song is of classical type, Hamsanandi based, song sung by SPB. The next song is also sung by SPB. It is a rhythm oriented devotional song. The next song is 'Enidu Enidu' the best song of the album and reminding us the Raja of the 80s. The singer listed in Sriram and Bhela Shine. Sriram sounds like Rajkumar. Excellent song which will have you pressing the rewind button. It rewinds you to the glorious 80s. The last song is a duet by SPB and Bhela. A very nice free flowing melody reminding you of the 'Aa Dinagalu' songs. All in all a mixed album. Three melody based numbers, two semi classical type numbers and two synth based numbers. Will post a more detailed review after I listen to it a few more times.

Hulk: I don't know any links which has these songs.

"மெல்ல ஊர்ந்து ஊர்ந்து" :-)

Very interesting song with somewhat state-of-the-art style presentation (neat recording, vocal harmony, good synth sounds etc).

However, whenever I hear this song, my mind automatically switch to 100% nAttuppuRa mood and start applying the "டண்டணக்கர, டக்கர, டக்கர" pattern from country drums.

Raja has very cleverly packaged a pucca village song in a contemporary format, fusion of a different kind, IMO.

Listening to the 'yenidu yenidu' song from 'Nanavannu'. A lovely song which takes me back in time. Reminds me of some songs of master tunesmiths like MSV's 'Muthukalo Kangal' and Pendyala's 'Vinnanule Priya'. Suddha Dhanyasi? As good a song as the ones I mentioned. Lovely first interlude with some very good synth bass and violin and flute pieces. Second interlude starts with the keyboard before the violin and flute join in.

Sureshs65,

No one else other than you here, have access to Nannavanu songs. Summaa veruppethaatheenga :)

raja_fan,

That is why I am refraining myself from writing a more detailed review :) In case you are in Bangalore, you should be able to get it in stores now. I hope it becomes available widely soon. A nice album.

Suresh65,

raja_fan,

I would love to atleast load some samples but don't have the required infrastructure to do it. (Slow link, no online account etc). I will check with my friend and see if some samples can be uploaded.

raja_fan,

I have uploaded some samples for your listening pleasure. Hope you are able to get the CD soon.
