can we just move on to the songs? The songs themselves have so many points to discuss about

Hulkster sir,
We'll be discussing these songs for decades

This kind of spice is part & parcel of our 'thiruvizhA' culture Let's enjoy this too

Seriously, for a movie music? Once the music is created, it enters to the world of digital and plastic.

Over-analyzing kills the fun & that's my opinion.

movie music ???
Once the music is created, it enters to the world of digital and plastic

Looking at the voting pattern, there seems to be very few who dislike Sunithi ammaNi number
(There could be more votes if some have recognized that there's no 'sellAtha vOttu' biz).

Well-deserved

Because it is art, not science or programming. This is not coding, debugging, bug fixing, unit testing, integration testing and giving a final product. This is also how we differentiate between mortals and immortals, as simple as that. First of all there is no creation here according to Maestro, which I accept. It is already inside us which is brought out by Maestro. As we are listening a composition, we marvel his fascinating mind/brain how he is conceiving such an idea. This interest unintentionally asks us to explore more about his composing skills and style. When we come to know that it is all written by Maestro at that instinct in-front of the director, without he even hearing it by playing. Does it not surprise us? Does it not create a huge regards and respect towards his music? Does it say, it is THE pure and original form of music? Do we not feel proud that we are listening to pure and original music? Does it not take away any compromise with which we are listening to others? Do we not feel embarrassed if we come to know that music is shared among others when composing? That's why it is important to know all the aspects when listening to music (especially nowadays) not just the output to gauge a true composer. Otherwise, we are putting a "composer" tag to everyone, which takes the credibility of the term composer. Maestro is only true composer who depends only on himself when composing, which makes every listener of his music to have a big relief that we are listening only to the music given by him and him only. According to many of us here, this transparency is very very important. And mind you, I am saying all this for a serious music listener who takes music as an integral part of life, culture, tradition, purity and truth with which we also follow in our life. I hope you understand the sentiments.

V_S,
Music being a work of art - it shouldn't be discouraged by anything at all. Movie Avatar or Titanic uses computer graphics/tricks/gimmicks - do we have to get embarrassed because of it? Of course, theatrical drama is raw form just like music orchestration - but, Avatar and Titanic wouldn't be possible. There is creativity in each and every thing. Let's enjoy everything. One is not better than the other.
Why should the listener be embarrassed of anything?

I purposefully avoided talking about your "composer" remark - which IR himself mentioned. That'll stir unnecessary debate.

I love all 8 songs. But if i were to name a favourite, it would probably be Kaatrai Konjam. How about instead of choosing favourite song, we create another poll for best prelude/interlude in the soundtrack? Heck, we can even create a poll for most innovative use of genre, song with the best orchestration and it will never end lol.

Anybody thinks that pudikkala maamu's first interlude is actually a tribute to guitar specialists like jimi hendrix by thalaivar? I have a funny feeling that thalaivar is actually a fan of jimi hendrix and pink floyd.

[raghavendran]

looks like there is no single favourite in this album..all songs have equal share of fans..main criteria for an album to stand out for decades..

You are mixing things here. We are only talking about music here. If you want to bring movie, this is not the thread, we have to discuss separately about it. Music is the only entity which takes you to next level, which neither poetry, drama, cinema, even dance, nothing can do that. You can only appreciate them as a passive audience, but you cannot imbibe in you, just like music does as it carries you till your last breath. That is why I am insisting that be pure and organic. It is A must. That's why we even call it as a gift for composers. If it is a made talent, there will be human elements in it, your emotions in it, your cleverness will be there. Maestro's music is that pure that you don't see any of his emotions in it. We can feel that, as we know how it happened. If it has human elements to it, that takes the beauty out of it. We don't see the music there, only the music director and how it was created. Here I only see music, nothing else. Music is beyond all the human elements. It is not that simple as you say, atleast not for me. If you are listening music just for fun, and concluding only based on the output, it is better we don't talk further about it. For me and most here, music is not fun.

'Let's enjoy everything' is a rude word here. Again it does not apply to true music fans. Being a Maestro fan and being exposed to his music for the 35 years, I can never do that, cause I will only be fooling Maestro and his music and in turn myself. To be honest, if you like the way you listen, please do, but please don't spoil the sentiments here, as Maestro's music is beyond anything and everything.

V.S. You have just aired the feelings of each and every fan of Maestro. Thank you sir!

Mr Brigs, If you just don't like the idea of fans dissecting the music like they are from heaven, then don't visit the forum and comment. I am pretty sure you are mature enough to realize this. Or are you here with another purpose?

Regardless of the topic, fans do love to analyse stuff from their idols in a detail which they prefer. This holds true for a fan of movie/sports/music/etc celebrity. If you really want your voice to be heard, create a petition and put your description as "People should not over analyze anything created by humans and treat it as what it is" and get about 1 billion people to sign it. Problem solved.

சந்தேகம்.. லண்டன் இசைக்குழு இந்தப் பாடல்களுக்கான இசைக்குறிப்புக்களை வாசிப்பதற்கு முன்பே குரல்களின் பதிவு (சென்னையில் முடிக்கப்பட்டு) தயாராக இருந்ததா? இசைக்குழுவினருக்கு குரலோடு பாடல் எப்படி பயணிக்கிறது என்பது தெரிவிக்கப்பட்டதா? இல்லை குரல்கள் வரும் இடத்தில் வேறொரு இசைக்கருவி வாசிக்கப்பட்டதா அவர்களோடு ? குரல்/குரலுக்கு பதிலான இசைக்கருவி எதுவேயில்லாமல் வெறும் இசைக்குறிப்புக்களை மட்டும் வாசித்து முடித்தார்களா? லண்டன் இசைக்கோர்ப்பு முடிந்தபிறகுதான் சென்னையில் குரல் பதிவு செய்யப்பட்டதா?
