Madhan, no. But I have been following TFM DF since 98.
rajalltheway, is there any way for you to diplomatically convey our hardcore raja fan's expectation [ wrt freshness in tune, great natural orchestration sans synth]and disapointment time and again with his recent tamil film albums ?

thumburu,

Regarding your request to rajaalltheway, that is near to impossible !

IR-kku oru vishayam innum puriya villai.
"Kaetkka aal irukkum varai thaan endha katcheri-yum nadakkum" enbadhu thaan.

If he does not understand this of his own, "naan saappaadu poda thayaaraa irukken, yaaraiyum kaanom" nu polambi thalla vendiyadhu thaan .

Avarukku ippozudhu udanadi thevai, avaridam velai vaangubavargal thaan. Aanaal avaro jaalra-kkalai thaan romba virumbugiraar

IR's "Aa Dinagalu" nominated under "Best Music" category for Sunfeast Udaya awards to be held on March 9th. FYI.

I dont know (have not heard) how good the music of other nominated movies are, but I liked "Bidu Bidu" (Rajesh voice texture and style of singing in this song is almost ditto like current SPB) and one another song of "Pallakki" (Music: Guru Kiran) sung by SPB

Sad and condemnable that the audio has not been "released" ! Again only Raja's album meet such fates

Somehow Raaja's recent albums seem to get into such distribution issues. Remember the shortage of TiS cassettes during the release time ???

I personally feel that in today's marketing world where every bloody thing is being sold as a 'one-of-the-kind' stuff, what Raaja seriously needs is a good marketing / distribution network. You look at all other people who are in the news for all right reasons - you know it is publicity. That is why you have many 'geniuses', many 'blockbusters', etc. - it is all sold that way.

Even music popularity has soared today mainly because of the publicity media available - if you have 10 music channels / FM radios blaring your clips 24x7, even a mediocre number would inadvertantly get into the listener's mind.

Boss, in a world where you have to erect a huge pink glowsign saying "Roses" with some animation even in front of a huge rose garden, being publicity-shy is a noble thought but not a successful one.

This is not just about Raaja's music. This happens in our everyday lives also. Personally too, even if I would like to let my work speak for me, if I have to get attention, then I have to let some buzz happen about my work.

At last listened to KKP.
Instant catch Sollum Varai Kaadhal" As youthful and gentle as it can get. There was a light lift in the songs and listening to it while working is another bliss. Dont know what Rajasaranam got crossed about this song. it is a beautiful song.

Maala nila is another amazing number with so much of "Deja Vu" thanks to the Raagam and the prayogam by IR and Manjari. I find Manjari's voice in both these songs to be apt and pleasing. IR struggles to sing Maalai Nila an SPB would have made it the years best song kinda feel.

Other songs probably serve the cinematic requirements than an album's. In spite of that Pottu Mela was good considering the restrictions. I hope Mamu machi is not in the film at all.

As Karthik has mentioned in his review, this album is a 'likeable album' and if you are playing it in your car, I guess you would be pressing "repeat" for "Sollum varai" and like teletubbies would say "Again again again."

Ameer Joins With IR for Kannabiraan

**app_engine** · 14th February 2008, 01:17 AM

I think this 'kaNNabirAn' thing may be a siNdu mudiyal. If it's real, it would be better if IR encourages Ameer to continue to work with YSR. If he still insists, only agree to do BGM.

From what I've seen, Ameer is a very capable director (I liked Ram, excellent but PV wasn't impressive, especially his choice of grAmiya music was very unimaginative) and may get a great score from IR. However, whether he can work without awe for IR and also with a better wavelength with him than with YSR cannot be predicted. He had better stick to his own team and continue to nurture his youthful combo. A failure here is not going to make or break IR but Ameer will have to hear 1000 unwanted ridicules w.r.t choice of MD in case of a flop movie.

I never said i didnt like this song

I liked maalai nila better. may be due to the connection with 'Oliyile Therivathu' kind of tune
