Airtel Super Singer 2008 - Monday to Wednesday @ 9pm

[Roshan]

Needless to say who won the ferformer of the day award - the one who performed first. WOW I think she also sang very well today

Seriously ? I will agree she looked very pretty (gross understatement actually) but every single landing note was either stifled or swallowed.
The girl who sang unnai nAn santhiththEn was very good I thought.

Even I thought but 'got to be more soft and sensitive'nu' comment kodukkuRaanga and for Hari who doesnt emote at all they dont say a single word.

Agree with Roshan completely, Hari was patchy

Yeah and he basically killed that wonderful song of SPB and I strongly feel that Ajish, Rohith and Gopalakrishan were ahead of him but all three were put on wait list.

It is ironic that Gopalakrishnan basically hurt his chances because of his "extra" effort.

I think so too..

I dont think he meant to say the eeramAna rOjAvE needed the beauty, he thought if he sang it his way it would show initiative.

And I think that's what he meant.

I'm looking forward to Prasanna singing Vandanam and Ravi's ThaNNi thotti .

Same here and also Deepshika, Renu and Aruna .

[Roshan]

Pls touch ur heart and tell me if the judges are really competent to judge..

They were quite impressive in the initial rounds but now it's all detoriarating and I am losing hope. They had been unusually lenient towards Hari who had been either average or below average in his performances right from the beginning. Ravi-Hari brothers'a koopittu Sriram and Subha special performance paNNa sonnappavE I was wondering as to why they were trying to highlight them. enakku mild'a doubt vara aarmbikkuthu ippO

Raginisri pAttu pAduRatha vittuttu jodi no.1-ku pOgalaam - that would be a better thing for her.

And as Bala said, Vipin is in trouble. Ajish can definitely do much better - I have seen his live performance and he is much talented than what we see now.

[Roshan]

As expected Vipin was in trouble and got eliminated. Barathiraja's elimination wasn't shocking to me. AdhE thAlAttu paaduRa style'la vechuttu kaalam thaLLa mudiyAthu. Malathi's elimination has got nothing to complain. Judges' decision nallAthAn irukku Vipin was sweet in his departing note. Malathi took it positively and Barathirajah got emotional yet managed to control.

Prasanna and Renu

Deepshika was disappointing and she seriously has to work on the emoting part.

Madhumitha did well for once with chinna thaayavaL.

Santhosh'a Sjuatha play back material'nu sonnathu - koncham kodumai

Rest was all fine to me

[complicateur]

Prasanna and Renu
Deepshika was disappointing and she seriously has to work on the emoting part.

I actually didn't mind Deepshikha. The pallavi was bad but she was back in form during the charaNam. She was singing well within herself like Sujatha said, Shruthi poyidumO-nu bayanthu pAdurApla irunthuthu. But I am a little biased hence the leniency .
Actually I concur on most things Sujatha said except Santhosh. He has mike control issues or he purposely pulls away so that you dont hear the end of the last word. She was absolutely right about ReNu's breath control at the end of the CharaNam. First thing that ran through my mind as I heard sing one of my favorite Raja compositions. I was waiting to see how she would handle it and she came through with flying colors. She was a little spotty at the beginning of the charaNam but navigated the end very well.
I thought Vijay would be flustered following Prasanna, but he performed admirably. No buckling under pressure. But it must have been intimidating, Prasanna put on a show... vittA one man nAdagamE nadathiduvApla!
Ravi as usual was his talented self with thaNNi thotti. Madhumitha was the surprise package. Very Very good this week.

And how is it fair to give a second chance for Arvind???
appo mathavanga ellam?

Bharathiraja suffered today. He was termed as a iravupaadagan, orE maadhiri stuff etc ., Why not a second chance?? Not that I am a fan of BR or something, but its not fair at all. Arvind was pathetic in his second attempt as well and he was spot selected

The women trio was superb today. All the three of them sang well with Renu being the best. Her performance today was WOW - on par with her ninaithu ninaithu pArthEn

Ravi Vs Renu or Ravi and Renu (a duet) would be God-awesome. Prasanna always imitates the singer, he can become an excellent mimicry artist. He does sing well but the person who he imitates is obviously much better than him, why do we need a cloan?? He is a much better singer if he does not do that (ponnonRu kaNdEn)

Judges - I'm reminded of a Virumaandi dialogue, "kenathula irukkumbodhu nallavana irundha illa neyee"

[crajkumar_be]

And complicateur/Roshan, IMO Santhosh nalla dhaane paadraaru...

[thilak4life]

Who who sang alongside Bharathiraja? I thought they were waxing lyrical just for his song selection, and not because of the rendition, which was well off-the-mark IMO.
