Any reviews about Kilakkum Merkkum? Please write about it soon. Can't wait for too long :))
Yesterday I met a girl who is joining our school this spring, she arrived last night here and she is from Chennai patnam. So aavalaga I went to her apartment and talked to her for some time. After talked some vetti news, I asked her whether she brought any new tamil cassettes and magazines. Can you imagine what her answer was? what else, lot of hindi music cassettes and only one tamil cassette. Could anybody guess what tamil album she brought? I will give you $1 million for the correct answer. Thalaiya pichchi kollallAm pOla irunthathu. And the way she talks tamil, oh boy, summAvA sonnAn BhArathi Mellath Tamizh ini sAgum enru!!!

guys,
in my opinion vidyasaagar ranks above deva.sirpi and others.some of his tunes like
poothirikkum maname' fro pudhayal and 'vaa saki' from arasiyal and 'malare mounama' from karna
are really good.blends carnatic music well with the song and not like our deva who just cuts and pastes kirthanais.

Heard two songs in Singapore Radio today.
vettu oNNu thuNdu reNdu - MD A.K.Vaasagan SwarNamuki - MD Swararaaj.
Both new MDs. Both the songs were so heavily garnished with violin and flute which made the orchesterisation good. But the tunes were half-boiled.

Just a minor correction:
Swararaj is not new to the field. He has composed for the film "Murai Maapillai" which was Arunkumar's (Vijaykumar's son) debut film. There was one song which goes something like "Thendral Kaatre Thendral Kaatre.. theendu ennai thaan" sung by S. Janaki. Sounds pretty good!.. Don't know if anybody else has heard it though!. From my understanding, Swararaj's debut was really not that good!..

Rajaraman:
I got the audio cassettes for some of the movies that you had listed( pongal release ones )
1. Uthavikku Varalamaa by Sirpi is just the usual Sirpi type songs. A couple of songs are good to listen to and the others are okay.
2. Marumalarchi is by S.A.Rajkumar( I think you had mistyped it as S.Ravikumar ) and the songs are good. A couple of songs are very good and melodious - more "Munnvaasanai" type songs.
3. Santhosham by Deva is the usual Deva songs
and a couple of songs are sung by Deva himself.
There is a song that goes like:
Kaalaiyil Ezhunthu( chorus: Kaalaiyil Ezhunthu )
Kaappi Kudichu( Ch: Kaappi Kudichu )
Thammu Adichu( a pause, then throat clearing )
Thammu Pudichu( Ch: Thammu Pudichu )
Saamiyey Aiyyappa .....
In one way, I feel sorry for Aiyyappa and think that this song may get censored into a different version before the movie hits the theatres, but then, the recent Aiyappan songs are all very modernized and up-to-date. The recent hit devotional Aiyyappan song is a song based on "Ratchagan's" "Soniya Soniya" tune, I haven't heard it but can imagine singing the song like this:
Swamiyey, Swamiyey, Kaakkavaikkum Swamiyey,
Sakthiyil Nee Enthavagai Kooru?
Saivama, Asaivama, Rendum Kalantha Deivama?
Unmaiyil Nee Enthavagai Kooru?
Aippasi Vanthathum Saivam;
Viratham Mudinthathum Asaivam;
Swamiyeyyyyy, Swaaamiyey!
4. Thinanthoram by Deva( not Oviyan; Oviyan is a new(???) kavignar who has written a few songs for the movie and has sung a controversial song in this movie about Women - maybe appropriate for the context but outside of the context it sounds controversial )
These songs are typical modern-Deva style which I mean as nice to hear and beatsy but you always get the nagging feeling that you have heard the tune, music, etc. somewhere else.
The title song is written by Oviyan in very much "Vairamuthu"ish style( so, we are starting to see Vairamuthu Clones!!! ) where the song lists all the things of "thinanthoram".

Hi folks,
Listened to NINI ( as you guys call it):-)
Karthik Raja must have had a fight with his father that he has set out on a mission to tarnish his name..
1. Intha Siripinai --- Hariharan,Vibha Sharma
The best part of this song that KR's new found Hindi talent keeps singing..Intha "serupinnai" at times,that it gets on your nerves after some time.. Not a bad tune..but there is a humming after each time the pallavi is sung which sounds dangerously similar to "Nothing can change my love for you" by George Benson...!!
2. Kattana ponnu romantica...
thanks to lyrics by PazhaniBarathi..must have taken classes from Vaali.
Hariharan and sadhana sargam....I felt sad for this pair who sang "Vennilavae.."...
3. Aathi adi aathi...
Priya's voice sounds like Subha's...supposed to be
a raunchy number I guess....KR must be shot for even trying this!!
4. Ailasa...
Absolutely horrid song with no connection between the pallavi and saranam... and to top it all...Udit singing
5. Nadana Kala rani...
A modern "dabaan koothu" type of song with a tabla and some added percussion for effect..And there is also this voice in the background saying "machi ...something" , "machaan.... something"...might go well with the young crowd..There are 2 names on the cover as to who sang this...Premji or Yuvanshankar....whoever did it is following in the steps of suresh Peters..
6. Hello Yenthan....
I am running out of adjectives to describe the songs and Udit's singing..:-)
Hope you get the message..
**********************************************
Got to listen to Kaadhal mannan too....
Better left unsaid..

"pulikku pirandhadu poonaiyaguma?"
"aanalum aagalam"
this is what i infer after seeing the review of NINI.
i guess KR might well stop making music,watch his father to compose music for a while,learn a lesson or two from him and then start composing music when he has the required maturity.in that way we can hear good songs from both of them.
i wonder how kaadhala kaadhala is going to be?hope kamal's music sense helps.

Heard a song from 'sinna raamasaami periya raamasaami'. The song went like 'kadalaiyE kadalaiyE' sung by Mano and Bhava. Mano has sung it in a different voice, probably the song is for RVUdayakumar. Bhava has improved. It seems as if the song is for a funny situation. So comments reserved till I know something about the situation also.

As always, just a few thoughts about Karthik Raja, "Naam Iruvar Namakku Iruvar" and Sundhar C., especially since all three are involved in the music of this movie.
One consistent aspect for Karthik Raja so far has been his poor choice of films & directors: "Maanikkam" with Pandian, both "Enakkoru Magan Pirappaan" & "Alexander" with K.R., "Ullaasam" with J.D. & Jerry and finally now, Sundhar C. in "Naam Iruvar Namakku Iruvar." If not anything else, Sundhar's last five films, including "Ullaththai Allithaa," "Mettukkudi" and "Arunaachalam" have had only passable music scores and no one expects Sundhar C. films to have grand music and picturizations. The truth is, directors have a lot of control over what kind of music goes into their movies. Moreover, the director's tastes determine the quality of the music and singers in his film. Since the directors of Karthik's films have always been poor and mediocre in their choice of music, this becomes a major strike against Karthik.
Second of all, I don't know about anyone else but I haven't lost hope in Karthik Raja. Not yet, at least!.. The fact that Karthik is a twenty some year old, working under tremendous pressure from the fact that he is the 'GREAT' Ilaiyaraja's son does not make things easy. Moreover, it has only been two years since Karthik actually entered the film scene. For a young musician and one still learning so many new aspects about film music, I think Karthik is doing his best under the circumstances.
Moreover, the problem is not so much with Karthik's music, but more with the dhanda directors he picks to compose music for. Personally, I feel Karthik's music in the Hindi film "Grahan" shows that he has a lot of talent and potential to grow in the industry. The question really is: How much longer are we as an audience going to hold his creativity down by stamping him as Ilaiyaraja's son who can never reach his father's level in music EVER?..
More than anything else, gaining exceptance is the most difficult thing and to be expected to give all hits is a tough thing for a young musician like him. Maybe others don't give him the benefit of doubt because of his age or for the bad decisions he has made so far, but I do believe Karthik Raja (alongside Yuvan) might be the only torch bearers of the Raja tradition in the very near future. Maturity in music and in approach comes only over time and experience and if this statement is true at all, Ilaiyaraja himself is proof of that! I do believe Karthik and Yuvan will also follow the same route to success, if not right away, but sometime in the very near future.

IMO, Ullasam songs were good eventhough the directors were unknown.
Sari pOgattum, director's choice dhaan sariyillanaalum, atleast paadagargal choice nandraaga seidhu irukka vendum allava ?
I am having a lot of expectations after 3 excellent songs in Ullasam.

'nesam kaatrukku' from ullasam was the best song and that was also a copy from pocahontas.i have heard that KR has composed music for hit songs in pandian,ponnumani and the BGM for the
song 'thendral vanthu" in avathaaram.so a lot was expected from him.the fact is that he has not lived upto his expectations atleast in TFM until now.
why do u need to lift tunes in your first few films itself?did sundar ask karthik to lift the tune from
pocahontas? i do not think so.this is what irritates me.on the one hand we have a guy who has ben composing music for 20 odd years and still giving original and fresh tunes, and on the other hand we have young and talented guys like KR
who resort to lifting right from their first film.
as i said before ,'kaadhala kadhala" might be the acid test for KR and if he fails,he might have to start all over again. because people like deva and ARR ,trendsetters in copying and mixing have been able to fool the audience successfully,but KR has not been able to do that so far.so he has to be careful.

in addition to my bove posting,i would like to add the following:
1.if directors taste is mediocre then KR should make them agree or convince them to agree to his tunes and not allow them to dictate if he is really self-confident.well if the directors are pressurizing him since he is a youngster,then perhaps it is a totally different matter.
2. for the same film director KR(not karthik raja), IR has given some good songs in vanaja-girija,maya bazaar? etc.
in fact i wondered how for a dabba film like vanaja-girija ,can raja come up with a tune like
'unnai edhirpaarthen'.marvellous!

KILAKKUM MERKUM songs review:
"ILLAYARAJA has tuned in a couple of pleasing tunes, his daughter Bhavatharini and the other female playback singer sadhana sargam("kathum kuyile" and "vayasu pulla" - the background score in the middle being very catchy) making best use of them. "Poongatru" is the former's best number."

Whenever there are releases of albums that MAY BE a hit, it is usually advertised over our radio. They do not announce the title of the movie, until the very end, after playing bits and pieces of some of the songs.
This morning I heard such an advertisement. I didn't pay much attention as, the songs played from this movie (suspense!) was the usual, current crop of fast, western beats.
I couldn't help smiling to myself when I heard the first song, which went like this:
Madonna paadal neethaanaa, Bombay model neethaana
I was thinking that Vaali must be up to his old tricks again and when he was going to get tired of it. A few songs later, I suddenly heard IR's voice! Since none of the songs were IR-like, I was caught by surprise.
And at the end, they announced the title of the movie, which is.....
Kaathalaa, Kaathalaa! :-)))
Isn't it a long time since IR sang for a Kamal movie?

It is a long time since IR was involved in a Kamal movie. 'sathi lIlAvathi' came in Jan 95. He sang a filler song as a part of he BGM in that movie. Did the same for mahaanathi. kalignan, maharaasan, thEvar magan, singkaaravElan, guNA..... Yes. He sang a full fledged song in guNA. That was in 91 Nov.
