Subject: Re: [arr] Kind request to ppl giving ATM reviews
Arthi,
You have a few valid points - People over hyping the release of the album ,
posting reviews within hours after music is out etc . But you just cannot say
that people should nt express their views . Esp the negative ones.
If you are telling me that ATM songs can match Rahman's usual standard, you
must be kidding me. I am not saying it is the worst. The songs in the album are
good in parts. Every song has good bits in them . But the completeness you
associate with Rahman's song is surely not there. To keep it short, you might
hear the songs for maximum one or two months. Then these songs will die.
Even albums like JOK, Ah Aah had couple of classic songs in them. I cant point
out a single one as being in that league. Kealamal could have been one, but
again the arrangment of the song takes away the charm. This I am saying after
hearing all the songs for over 50 times.
None of us here would like to bash rahman when an album comes. They would nt
have joined the grp at the first place if they wanted to do it. But still you
have to accept criticism , esp constructive ones. All we are saying is "Sachin
can make a duck for 3 innings together. But still we would stand by him and
wait for the magical knock in the fourth one !! "

Amazing, Aarthi. I was really bowled over on reading your views & advise.
If everybody in this group follow this before giving reviews, we can get the
exact feedback of the music.
Early review givers, please read this and accept this.
Cheers,
Siraj

Azhagiya Tamil Magan, don't want to put it as a much hyped album atleast not in
our group I guess,bcos ppl know wat a vijay starring movie wud give us..May b
bcos I dint expect anything,this album seems to b sooo good for me..But its
really disheartening to c lots of negative reviews on this movie..hmmm I want
to put in my thots on d so called reviews given by lots of ppl here..
1.Why compare???
Guys,v very well know ATM is a perfect commercial movie and u know
Vijay comes as some Super hero who has this extra ordinary power of forseeing
wat s gonna happen in future(don't know for how long directors r gonna stick to
d same old stories,huh) After having such a story line,how can one expect to
this album with roja,dilse kind a music huh plsss..ARR has perfectly done
justice to his job by offering great foot tapping music..If u visit these vijay
forums d music's reach is perfectly felt der..Der r still lots of places wer
ppl don't even know if der existed a movie Uyire,for those ppl Rahman had to do
some music and he has done with style..so plss before u compare,do it with
stuff like God Father,parashuram, New no issues..For me ATM is d best
commercial movie given by our Boss..
2.No Remixes pls!!Not this director pls!!
Utter nonsense!!ARR himself doesn't like remixes tat v know but wen
d story requires it he has to do it..Tats wat is required of a MD wen u score a
music for a movie..and god tat ponmagal song doesn't deserve to b criticized so
much guys,pls give it some time...now comes d axe on d directors..d same set of
ppl wer crying few yrs bak tat rahman is not doing music in tamil and now wen
he does it he s being criticized.. if u think maniratnam and shankar can alone
bring d best out of our boss,v ll have to wait an entire year for one rahman
album..Guys many ppl like me hardly understand hindi,for me an album by ARR in
tamil is like a festival time..so pls I need Rahman to compose more of tamil
songs for tat albums like ATM r a real answer guys..
3.Early Reviews!!
One thing I hate in this forum is ppl queing up to give in der
reviews as soon a album is released..Even b4 I cud grab a cd for myself I saw
lots of reviews both positive ones and negative ones..many wud just go by wat u
guys say and think its not even worth getting d cd..is this wat v r here
for???If u dint like it wait give it some time and den start posting in ur
views,plssss this is my very very sincere request…
4.Too much of analysation! !
I don't know anything in music,don't know wat u guys r talking most
of d time..But d fact tat v r all his fans is wat v r here for..my sincere
advice to lots of music pundits here is don't analyse an album like ATM with
all ur extraordinary skills in music,it ll surely b a letdown..just forget
everything and enjoy and I am sure u ll love it immediately. .
5.D so called Reviews!!
"the Rahman touch is missing"
"todays is a sad day for rahman fans"
"this reminds me of tat song"
Guys pls give it a break..Its so disgusting wen someone in d name of a fan
questions Rahman's capabilities. .If u dint like it put it in a way tat doesn't
hurt fans like me ok..say u feel it s like tat and not general statements like
d above ones..
6.My take on ATM!!
Finally,for me ATM is just a fabulous album..its bin quite sometime
tat I ve liked an entire album but ATM has made me feel it..Its like yuvi 6
sixers for me..wow valayapathi, merlin menroa,ella pugazhum just bowled me
over..According to me this album is well above Godfather and can equally place
it near shivaji..
We all know RahulDravid is a technically brilliant batsman,
occasionally he plays a dhoni kind of innings according to d NEED OF D
HOUR,does tat by any way question Dravid's technical brilliance?? its very
similar with our boss too..V know his brilliance,occasion ally movies like this
shows our boss' versatility. .so plsssssss don't make absurd remarks based on
ur opinions in public forums like this..Enjoy ATM guys and lets keep waiting
for Jodha akbar..
Regards,
aarthi
