[arr] BGM portion of anbil avan looking awsome.........
bgm portion of anbil avan looking really awsome.. Am i? many guys praised so much about kannukkul kannai song, but it doesn'nt feel so special for me Aaromale is terrific and superb. Its my favourite of the album... The chorus singing portion in that song lacks clarity in malayalam lyrics especially towards the end of that portion. Many thanks for lyrist kaithapram who wrote such beautiful lyrics for that song with the full soul of that song. The quality and packing of the cd is really good. Thanks for sony music.For blue, that was lacking. Ya many songs was looking quirky for me for the first hearing.. But now all are my favourites.VTV will be a blockbuster sound track of this year..

But as we know, Gautham is totally against using north indian singers. i remmeber Madhushree sang in Gautham's movie Pacchaikilimuthucharam, but her version was not used and gautham asked harris to record the same song with Bombay Jayashree and used hers instead.

[arr] Exclusive : Raavan and Endhiran release dates confirmed
The release date of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Abhishek Bachhcan starrer Raavan directed by Mani Ratnam has been confirmed to June 18th. That means we can expect the music to hit the stores in early May!! (Remember, Mani's last film 'Guru' with AbhiAsh relesed on Jan 12th 2007 whereas the music was out on November 18th, 2006!) This will be ARR's 9th film with Ash! It also stars the likes of Vikram, Govinda and Priyamani! It is to be remembered that Gulzar is writing the lyrics of the high budget magnum opus! This is the most awaited Bollywood film after the year! Another huge film Endhiran starring Rajnikanth and Ash again is said to be 90% complete and is readying itself for a Diwali release(November 5th). With both the films, Ash will become the first ever actor to do 10 films with ARR!

[arr] My opinion on VTV
Though it has just been two days since I bought the cd, nevertheless for some reasons, I feel as if I've been having an age old relationship with the album. To tell the truth, when I first heard the songs, I did like the album for the overall presentation. However, as the songs kept playing in my cd player, I noticed that there was something extra special about this album. The more I listened to it, the more I'm engrossed with it. And the more I'm engrossed with it, the more I'm unwilling to part from it. In fact, I happen to come across a mail written by our fellow friend who claimed that he now takes a longer route back home in order to have some time alone with the soundtracks. The moment I read it, I just couldn't help but smile...because that's exactly how I felt when listening to the album myself...to spend some time alone with the album and to uncover the truth of what's making it so spellbinding! The followings are merely my thoughts on my new-found friendship with VTV. I'm not a professional commentator nor do I have a profound knowledge as far as music is concerned, thus kindly pardon me if there's any inaccuracy or mistake in the expressions and words used below. 1. Omana Penne Omana Penne starts on a blissful tune coupled with the soothing voice of Benny Dayal. I've always preferred Benny in soft melodies rather than in fast beats or folk numbers. And as expected, Benny has done a wonderful job here. The first saranam was given an under-water-singing effect which reminds me of Blue, nevertheless the similarities ends there. The Kerala portion on the other hand, has a heavenly rhythm which leaves you asking for more. It's always a privilege to hear ARR's usage of ethnic music, even if it's only for a few seconds and he has done an excellent job here as well. And needless to say, Kalyani Menon was the perfect choice for this. On a further note, the nadaswaram used throughout the song was just mind blowing. Initially I had my doubts if the real nadaswaram was used for this particular number nevertheless clarifications given by fellow friends and a quick check with ARR's official website cleared my doubts. Kudos to ARR and Natarajan for churning out an essentially ethnic and yet modern tune. Omana Penne is definitely here to stay! 2. Anbil Avan The techno sound at the prelude seems to have traces of Santhipoma of Enaku 20 Unaku 18. To tell the truth, I didn't find this song to be particularly astounding at first. However, repeated hearing has made me to change my mind. Trust me, this song is highly addictive. Devan did a great job, needless to say. I couldn't think of any other singer who would have given the song the same level of energy that Devan accomplishes. Nevertheless, I must say that Chinmayi was a revelation. I've always had difficulties identifying Chinmayi's voice as she has the talent of modulating her voice texture and style according to the mood of each and every song of hers. While she was soulful in Oru Deivam (Kannathil Muthammittal) and angelic in En Uyir Thozhiye (Kangalal Kaithu Sei), here she seems to present a western-based singing. In fact, when I heard this song for the first time, I had mistaken Chinmayi's voice to Vasundhara Das'. A check on the credits revealed the truth. She sounds amazing! Coming back to the music arrangements, ARR has again surprised everyone with his choice of genre for a song such as this. The song basically expresses the lovers' dreams of their marriage. While most would have settled for a melody for such a situation, ARR decided to grant a peppy, foot-tapping number. And what an apposite choice that was. He effectively brought out the elation felt by the lovers in a vivacious manner, while the inclusion of the marriage tunes at the interludes provided a wonderful, jubilant feel to it. 3. Vinnaithandi Varuvaya I was pleasantly surprised that ARR used Karthik instead of Hariharan for this soothing number. This would have been a cake-walk for Hariharan who's a master in playing with the ragas. Nevertheless, I must say that Karthik has done a commendable job. In fact, full credits goes to ARR for using Karthik's voice in a very unconventional manner to such great effect. Instead of opting for the open-throat singing (which I believe is Karthik's plus point), ARR has brought out a rather husky side of Karthik here. Truly amazing! ARR has used minimum instruments here, letting the string arrangements to do the wonders. And wonders they did! I was instantly attracted to it from the first moment I heard it. In fact, I must say that I was amazed with the whole presentation of this song. Definitely one of my favourites! 4. Hosanna Vijay Prakash is back after the amazing job rendered in Fiqrana. Among all the songs, Hosanna attracted me from the moment I first heard it. The song started on as a slow melody but ARR quickly transformed it to a fast tempo at the pallavi. Vijay sounds

no its not a problem , its a kind of mixing technique. it gives a different feel of the song .

[arr] Official video of VTV audio release (Magical unplugged versions)
http://tamil.techsatish.net/file/vinnai-thandi-varuvaya-audio-release/ Amazing unplugged versions of the VTV soundtrack. Damn! Can we convince the organisers to release these tracks?! I am sure someone's ripping them as I type but the high quality version of the unplugged version is priceless. What do we have to do to get our hands on these gems? This soundtrack is growing on me. Mannipaye was an immediete draw for me and now slowly the other songs are growing on me. There's something magical about this soundtrack. Something. Cannot find the right words to describe the feeling.But there sure is something. I really hope this movie is all what we expect it to be. Good luck to the team! And please buy the CD folks. Please. It's sad to see people justifying listening to the pirated (read stolen) version with oh I am going to buy the CD anyway so it's alright to download the pirated version . That's really not the attitude we should be taking as responsible fans. The pirated market is thriving because of sentiments like this. Demand=supply. These videos remind you of the hardwork and passion that goes behind a soundtrack like this and how do we reward them ?By stealing their work. In my eyes, there's no difference between someone who only downloads pirated mp3s and someone who downloads pirated mp3s and then buys the CD. Both are equally guilty for creating demand for pirated music. These artists deserve better. And for those reputable music reviwers out there (likes of Karthik-milliblog etc), I humbly request you to not write up reviews based on stolen music. Please. It may not change your opinion of the soundtrack and that's not what I am concerned about- the concern is the fact that you are encouraging piracy. Excuse the preaching folks and enjoy the music!

Initially I had my doubts if the real nadaswaram was used for this particular number nevertheless clarifications given by fellow friends and a quick check with ARR's official website cleared my doubts.

However, repeated hearing has made me to change my mind. Trust me, this song is highly addictive.* Devan *did a great job, needless to say. I couldn't think of any other singer who would have given the song the same level of energy that Devan accomplishes. Nevertheless, I must say that *Chinmayi* was a revelation. I've always had difficulties identifying Chinmayi's voice as she has the talent of modulating her voice texture and style according to the mood of each and every song of hers. While she was soulful in Oru Deivam (Kannathil Muthammittal) and angelic in En Uyir Thozhiye (Kangalal Kaithu Sei), here she seems to present a western-based singing. In fact, when I heard this song for the first time, I had mistaken Chinmayi's voice to Vasundhara Das'. A check on the credits revealed the truth. She sounds amazing! Coming back to the music arrangements, ARR has again surprised everyone with his choice of genre for a song such as this. The song basically expresses the lovers' dreams of their marriage. While most would have settled for a melody for such a situation, ARR decided to grant a peppy, foot-tapping number. And what an apposite choice that was. He effectively brought out the elation felt by the lovers in a vivacious manner, while the inclusion of the marriage tunes at the interludes provided a wonderful, jubilant feel to it. *3. Vinnaithandi Varuvaya * I was pleasantly surprised that ARR used *Karthik* instead of Hariharan for this soothing number. This would have been a cake-walk for Hariharan who's a master in playing with the ragas. Nevertheless, I must say that Karthik has done a commendable job. In fact, full credits goes to ARR for using Karthik's voice in a very unconventional manner to such great effect. Instead of opting for the open-throat singing (which I believe is Karthik's plus point), ARR has brought out a rather husky side of Karthik here. Truly amazing! ARR has used minimum instruments here, letting the string arrangements to do the wonders. And wonders they did! I was instantly attracted to it from the first moment I heard it. In fact, I must say that I was amazed with the whole presentation of this song. Definitely one of my favourites! *4. Hosanna* *Vijay Prakash* is back after the amazing job rendered in Fiqrana. Among
Re: [arr] Re: Gautham-A.R.Rahman combo rocks!
Hi guys,
I've no clue for your curiosity. To be frank, I was looking forward for this
audio launch for another reason as well. I was wondering whether we could hear
from GM about his Music Director for his next movie. As far that is concerned,
I'm disappointed. But music wise, no apt word to choose to describe the
exhilaration that I'm experiencing now. As I'm mentioning this from the day GM
announced this project, the combination rocked (maybe understatement). Hope GM
will work with ARR once again for his next project.

K.Gobi

Gautham is a director who have ears for wonderful music. ARR needs people

only ARR is capable to give us another revolutionary album.

Re: [arr] Is that a flaw in Hosanna?
Exactly. Because from knowing how AR plays with setreo, this is not how his songs have it. This is surely a flaw and not intended.

I'm not a professional commentator nor do I have a profound knowledge as far as music is concerned, thus kindly pardon me if there's any inaccuracy or mistake in the expressions and words used below. 1. Omana Penne Omana Penne starts on a blissful tune coupled with the soothing voice of Benny Dayal. I've always preferred Benny in soft melodies rather than in fast beats or folk numbers. And as expected, Benny has done a wonderful job here. The first saranam was given an under-water- singing effect which reminds me of Blue, nevertheless the similarities ends there. The Kerala portion on the other hand, has a heavenly rhythm which leaves you asking for more. It's always a privilege to hear ARR's usage of ethnic music, even if it's only for a few seconds and he has done an excellent job here as well. And needless to say, Kalyani Menon was the perfect choice for this. On a further note, the nadaswaram used throughout the song was just mind blowing. Initially I had my doubts if the real nadaswaram was used for this particular number nevertheless clarifications given by fellow friends and a quick check with ARR's official website cleared my doubts. Kudos to ARR and Natarajan for churning out an essentially ethnic and yet modern tune. Omana Penne is definitely here to stay! 2. Anbil Avan The techno sound at the prelude seems to have traces of Santhipoma of Enaku 20 Unaku 18. To tell the truth, I didn't find this song to be particularly astounding at first. However, repeated hearing has made me to change my mind. Trust me, this song is highly addictive. Devan did a great job, needless to say. I couldn't think of any other singer who would have given the song the same level of energy that Devan accomplishes. Nevertheless, I must say that Chinmayi was a revelation. I've always had difficulties identifying Chinmayi's voice as she has the talent of modulating her voice texture and style according to the mood of each and every song of hers. While she was soulful in Oru Deivam (Kannathil Muthammittal) and angelic in En Uyir Thozhiye (Kangalal Kaithu Sei), here she seems to present a western-based singing. In fact, when I heard this song for the first time, I had mistaken Chinmayi's voice to Vasundhara Das'. A check on the credits revealed the truth. She sounds amazing! Coming back to the music arrangements, ARR has again surprised everyone with his choice of genre for a song such as this. The song basically expresses the lovers' dreams of their marriage. While most would have settled for a melody for such a situation, ARR decided to grant a peppy, foot-tapping number. And what an apposite choice that was. He effectively brought out the elation felt by the lovers in a vivacious manner, while the inclusion of the marriage tunes at the interludes provided a wonderful, jubilant feel to it. 3. Vinnaithandi Varuvaya I was pleasantly surprised that ARR used Karthik instead of Hariharan for this soothing number. This would have been a cake-walk for Hariharan who's a master in playing with the ragas. Nevertheless, I must say that Karthik has done a commendable job. In fact, full credits goes to ARR for using Karthik's voice in a very unconventional manner to such great effect. Instead of opting for the open-throat singing (which I believe is Karthik's plus point), ARR has brought out a rather husky side of Karthik here. Truly amazing! ARR has used minimum instruments here, letting the string arrangements to do the wonders. And wonders they did! I was instantly attracted to it from the first moment I heard it. In
Re: [arr] The song Aaromale is said to be inspired from...
The point is not about similarity in tune. But the point is about - what was hovering in ARR's mind when he made this song. If only some interviewer asks it, I am sure ARR might say that he was inspired (purely by school of thought, not tune etc) by Pink Floyd's creations such as Wish you were here, Animals, More, Obscured by Clouds. Infact, i feel the song has doses of Pink Floyd-ian style peppered with L.Shankar (electronic violin).

[arr] ‘Ravana’ is talking Tamil in Chennai!
http://www.indiaglitz.com/channels/tamil/article/53563.html Oh yeah! The dubbing process of ‘Ravana’ Tamil version is up and happening from Jan 4th in Chennai. Mani Ratnam’s favourite editor Srikar Prasanth had prepared a rough cut of 2 hours and 50 minutes for the dubbing purpose. The first schedule of dubbing over as Prithviraj and Priyamani are done with their part. On the other hand, dubbing process for the crowd voice and other supporting characters are also ready, say the sources. So, the remaining portion is of Aishwarya’s voice and Govinda’s voice and sources from Madras Talkies are busy hunting for VIP voices for them. As of now, there are no solid denials or confirmation when it comes to the rumours about Superstar’s daughter dear Aishwarya Dhanush giving voice for the ex- world beauty. Likewise, gossip mongers had it that Mani Ratnam has approached Suriya to give dubbing for Govinda. Sources in the know had it that famous dubbing artist Savitha was seen in Prasad Studio, where the dubbing process of ‘Ravana’ is on. Once the dubbing process is over, the process for Ravana’s sound effects will start immediately.

[arr] Sydney goes to Bollywood to see Indian idol
http://www.smh.com.au/news/entertainment/music/sydney-goes-to-bollywood-to-see-indian-idol/2010/01/15/1263058358330.html IT HAS been five years since Vish Viswanathan saw the Bollywood megastar A.R. Rahman perform one of his legendary shows in Sydney. But tonight the wait will finally be over when the composer of theSlumdog Millionaire soundtrack takes centre stage in Parramatta Park as part of the Sydney Festival. I'm definitely looking forward to the concert … He is probably one of the great composers of the 21st century. We're going to get the best out of all of his music, Mr Viswanathan said. Mr Viswanathan is the president of the Federation of Australian Indian Associations, and met the superstar during his 2005 tour.. It was very unique, it was very humble. He came across as a very humble person for his achievements and he was fascinated very much to go to the new places, Mr Viswanathan said. When he looked at the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge he was like a child with a new toy. It gave me a lot of pleasure that I met someone who is very humble for his age and for his achievements. On Thursday Mr Viswanathan met the Bollywood idol again, presenting him with a framed memento of the Harbour Bridge and Opera House. It was wonderful meeting him [again]. He recollected [who I was] and then he signed an autograph for me. Mr Viswanathan says the concert comes at an important time for Australia and India. We're going to get an effect of harmony, community harmony, which is very much needed in the [recent] tension between India and Australia, he said. A friend of Mr Viswanathan, Neera Srivastava, says Rahman's concert will mix both Indian and Western music. We would think that this concert is going to generate enough interest from the Western people as well. We really look forward to seeing many Australians at the concert as well to see what the Bollywood music is all about, she said. Festival organisers are warning that large crowds are expected. SHOWTIME The event is free. Gates will open at noon, show time 7..30pm. Music videos will continue after the concert. Concert goers are asked to take public transport. No BYO alcohol.

Re: [arr] Re: Gautham-A.R.Rahman combo rocks!
GM is all set for his next two films. First with Ajith and then with Kamal
Who will be MD for these? Hope GM-ARR combo continues... read somewhere that GM
will be teaming up with ARR for all his future project.. dont know how much of
that is true?
http://sify.com/movies/tamil/fullstory.php?id=14927500
Gautham Vadudev Menon is going to have a busy 2010. After the successful audio
launch of his Vinnaithandi Varuvaaya, Gautham is going underground to write the
script of his next film.
Gautham has confirmed that he is going to do Ajith’s golden jubilee
film for producer Dayanidhi Alagiri. He is working on an interesting
commercial script for the film which will start rolling by mid April.
As of now, the film is likely to release sometime in Nov/Dec this year.
The music director and heroine will be fixed before the shoot.
The big news is that Gautham has signed Kamal Hassan for his next film
at a whopping price. Kamal and Gautham who had worked together in Vettayadu
Villayadu, had fallen out over some trivial issues.
As a goodwill gesture Kamal came to attend Vinnaithandi Varuvaaya, audio launch
and said he is very eager to see Gautham’s Simbu- Trisha film after seeing the
trailer and songs.
Now they have patched up the new film will start rolling after Kamal
finishes his Udayanidhi Stalin project with KS Ravikumar. And by that
time GM would have completed his Ajith project. The Kamal film is to be
made by Gautham under his home banner.

To tell the truth, when I first heard the songs, I did like the album for the overall presentation. However, as the songs kept playing in my cd player, I noticed that there was something extra special about this album. The more I listened to it, the more I'm engrossed with it. And the more I'm engrossed with it, the more I'm unwilling to part from it. In fact, I happen to come across a mail written by our fellow friend who claimed that he now takes a longer route back home in order to have some time alone with the soundtracks. The moment I read it, I just couldn't help but smile...because that's exactly how I felt when listening to the album myself...to spend some time alone with the album and to uncover the truth of what's making it so spellbinding! The followings are merely my thoughts on my new-found friendship with VTV. I'm not a professional commentator nor do I have a profound knowledge as far as music is concerned, thus kindly pardon me if there's any inaccuracy or mistake in the expressions and words used below. *1. Omana Penne* Omana Penne starts on a blissful tune coupled with the soothing voice of *Benny Dayal. *I've always preferred Benny in soft melodies rather than in fast beats or folk numbers. And as expected, Benny has done a wonderful job here. The first saranam was given an under-water-singing effect which reminds me of Blue*,* nevertheless* *the similarities ends there. The Kerala portion on the other hand, has a heavenly rhythm which leaves you asking for more. It's always a privilege to hear ARR's usage of ethnic music, even if it's only for a few seconds and he has done an excellent job here as well. And needless to say, *Kalyani Menon *was the perfect choice for this. On a further note, the nadaswaram used throughout the song was just mind blowing. Initially I had my doubts if the real nadaswaram was used for this particular number nevertheless clarifications given by fellow friends and a quick check with ARR's official website cleared my doubts. Kudos to ARR and Natarajan for churning out an essentially ethnic and yet modern tune. Omana Penne is definitely here to stay! *2. Anbil Avan* The techno sound at the prelude seems to have traces of Santhipoma of Enaku 20 Unaku 18. To tell the truth, I didn't find this song to be particularly astounding at first. However, repeated hearing has made me to change my mind. Trust me, this song is highly addictive.* Devan *did a great job, needless to say. I couldn't think of any other singer who would have given the song the same level of energy that Devan accomplishes. Nevertheless, I must say that *Chinmayi* was a revelation. I've always had difficulties identifying Chinmayi's voice as she has the talent of modulating her voice texture and style according to the mood of each and every song of hers. While she was soulful in Oru Deivam (Kannathil Muthammittal) and angelic in En Uyir Thozhiye (Kangalal Kaithu Sei), here she seems to present a western-based singing. In fact, when I heard this song for the first time, I had mistaken Chinmayi's voice to Vasundhara Das'. A check on the credits revealed the truth. She sounds

[arr] Re: Official video of VTV audio release (Magical unplugged versions)
No, the preaching is not excused. You know what encourages piracy?? If the rights holder does not make enough CDs available, and on top of that prevents the 2 biggest online sellers of digital music from selling MP3s in one of the biggest markets, then I will download it. I have also pre-ordered the CD on Amazon, which will probably get it to me by February and so I WILL MOST DEFINITELY download it with a clear conscience. I also tried to buy from amazon.co.uk, but you can't do that from US because of 'geographical restrictions'. On top of all this, there's a stupid iphone app (a world first apparently.. in what? stupidity?). What about people not having an iphone / ipod touch?

Damn! Can we convince the organisers to release these tracks?! I am sure someone's ripping them as I type but the high quality version of the unplugged version is priceless. What do we have to do to get our hands on these gems? This soundtrack is growing on me. Mannipaye was an immediete draw for me and now slowly the other songs are growing on me. There's something magical about this soundtrack. Something. Cannot find the right words to describe the feeling.But there sure is something. I really hope this movie is all what we expect it to be. Good luck to the team! And please buy the CD folks. Please. It's sad to see people justifying listening to the pirated (read stolen) version with oh I am going to buy the CD anyway so it's alright to download the pirated version . That's really not the attitude we should be taking as responsible fans. The pirated market is thriving because of sentiments like this. Demand=supply. These videos remind you of the hardwork and passion that goes behind a soundtrack like this and how do we reward them ?By stealing their work. In my eyes, there's no difference between someone who only downloads pirated mp3s and someone who downloads pirated mp3s and then buys the CD. Both are equally guilty for creating demand for pirated music. These artists deserve better. And for those reputable music reviwers out there (likes of Karthik-milliblog etc), I humbly request you to not write up reviews based on stolen music. Please. It may not change your opinion of the soundtrack and that's not what I am concerned about- the concern is the fact that you are encouraging piracy. Excuse the preaching folks and enjoy the music!

Subject: Re: [arr] My opinion on VTV To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com Date: Friday, January 15, 2010, 2:51 AM  Nice review Gayatri well written.   On Fri, Jan 15, 2010 at 2:56 PM, Gayathri Chandrakasan gayathri_ck17@ yahoo.com wrote:  Though it has just been two days since I bought the cd, nevertheless for some reasons, I feel as if I've been having an age old relationship with the album. To tell the truth, when I first heard the songs, I did like the album for the overall presentation. However, as the songs kept playing in my cd player, I noticed that there was something extra special about this album. The more I listened to it, the more I'm engrossed with it. And the more I'm engrossed with it, the more I'm unwilling to part from it. In fact, I happen to come across a mail written by our fellow friend who claimed that he now takes a longer route back home in order to have some time alone with the soundtracks. The moment I read it, I just couldn't help but smile...because that's exactly how I felt when listening to the album myself...to spend some time alone with the album and to uncover the truth of what's making it so spellbinding! The followings are merely my thoughts on my new-found friendship with VTV. I'm not a professional commentator nor do I have a profound knowledge as far as music is concerned, thus kindly pardon me if there's any inaccuracy or mistake in the expressions and words used below. 1. Omana Penne Omana Penne starts on a blissful tune coupled with the soothing voice of Benny Dayal. I've always preferred Benny in soft melodies rather than in fast beats or folk numbers. And as expected, Benny has done a wonderful job here. The first saranam was given an under-water- singing effect which reminds me of Blue, nevertheless the similarities ends there. The Kerala portion on the other hand, has a heavenly rhythm which leaves you asking for more. It's always a privilege to hear ARR's usage of ethnic music, even if it's only for a few seconds and he has done an excellent job here as well. And needless to say, Kalyani Menon was the perfect choice for this. On a further note, the nadaswaram used throughout the song was just mind blowing. Initially I had my doubts if the real nadaswaram was used for this particular number nevertheless clarifications given by fellow friends and a quick check with ARR's official website cleared my doubts. Kudos to ARR and Natarajan for churning out an essentially ethnic and yet modern tune. Omana Penne is definitely here to stay!  2. Anbil Avan The techno sound at the prelude seems to have traces of Santhipoma of Enaku 20 Unaku 18. To tell the truth, I didn't find this song to be particularly astounding at first. However, repeated hearing has made me to change my mind. Trust me, this song is highly addictive. Devan did a great job, needless to say. I couldn't think of any other singer who would have given the song the same level of energy that Devan accomplishes. Nevertheless, I must say that Chinmayi was a revelation. I've always had difficulties identifying Chinmayi's voice as she has the talent of modulating her voice texture and style according to the mood of each and every song of hers. While she was soulful in Oru Deivam (Kannathil Muthammittal) and angelic in En Uyir Thozhiye (Kangalal Kaithu Sei), here she seems to present a western-based singing. In fact, when I heard this song for the first time, I had mistaken Chinmayi's voice to Vasundhara Das'. A check on the credits revealed the truth. She sounds amazing! Coming back to the music arrangements, ARR has again surprised everyone with his choice of genre for a song such as this. The song basically expresses the lovers' dreams of their marriage. While most would have settled for a melody for such a situation, ARR decided to grant a peppy, foot-tapping number. And what an apposite choice that was. He effectively brought out the elation felt by the lovers in a vivacious manner, while the inclusion of the marriage tunes at the interludes provided a wonderful, jubilant feel to it.  3. Vinnaithandi Varuvaya I was pleasantly surprised that ARR used Karthik instead of Hariharan for this soothing number. This would have been a cake-walk for Hariharan who's a master in playing with the ragas. Nevertheless, I must say that Karthik has done a commendable job. In fact, full credits goes to ARR for using Karthik's voice in a very unconventional manner to such great effect. Instead of opting for the open-throat singing (which I believe is Karthik's plus point), ARR
[arr] Re: Official video of VTV audio release (Magical unplugged versions)
Another CD release with unplugged versions? Forget about it!! Dont even think about it in your dreams because that simply is not going to happen. There are some serious statements you made and I fall in the category of people who (have to) download from net.. First of all its not pirated versions on amazon / iTunes, they are official legal versions - whatever is on CD. I dont agree with your negative thoughts on Lets download because I am going to buy the CD anyways From my point of view, it is alright to download and then buy the music (well thats what I do for Non-ARR albums as I cant just blindly buy every album that comes in the market, I buy non-ARR albums AFTER listening to them. concept is - buy the album if you like it). Now for ARR albums, as we are obsessed with his music, most of us cant just wait to listen to the songs. You are lucky one who has Tamil video/audio stores at places near you, but that isnt the situation in rest of the world. There is not even a single music stores in my entire province / state where I can get Tamil CDs. This time around for VTV, songs were available on iTunes (iPhone only) and I was fortunate that I have iPhone. What about people who dont have iPhones? Do you think someone would buy expensive phone like iPhone ($ 750) just to listen to one album. Even if album was available for regular iTunes download, I can totally understand that a person wouldnt want to spend double the cost of CD for songs (buy mp3 songs then buy CD) unless he is a hardcore fan - thats why they chose to download songs (even for free) and then buy CDs (because they like the music, they want to support the artist). .. and amazon, only people in UK can buy mp3s, why not people in other countries? .. and what about people who dont even have credit cards (because both iTunes Amazon require visa / master card)? Since Amazon is delivering CDs in Feb / March - do you really expect us to go through the pain of not listening to songs till Feb / March? In short, it is not us, it is distributors , music companies themselves who are responsible for this ugly situation of piracy. If they distribute properly, make CDs available at most places within same time, piracy can definitely be minimized to some level. arghhh what is wrong with me.. I am supposed to be enjoying VTV songs and I am writing this non-pleasant statements. I guess I should watch these unplugged version videos to change my mood =) --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, Indmov Buff indmovb...@... wrote: http://tamil.techsatish.net/file/vinnai-thandi-varuvaya-audio-release/ Amazing unplugged versions of the VTV soundtrack. Damn! Can we convince the organisers to release these tracks?! I am sure someone's ripping them as I type but the high quality version of the unplugged version is priceless. What do we have to do to get our hands on these gems? This soundtrack is growing on me. Mannipaye was an immediete draw for me and now slowly the other songs are growing on me. There's something magical about this soundtrack. Something. Cannot find the right words to describe the feeling.But there sure is something. I really hope this movie is all what we expect it to be. Good luck to the team! And please buy the CD folks. Please. It's sad to see people justifying listening to the pirated (read stolen) version with oh I am going to buy the CD anyway so it's alright to download the pirated version . That's really not the attitude we should be taking as responsible fans. The pirated market is thriving because of sentiments like this. Demand=supply. These videos remind you of the hardwork and passion that goes behind a soundtrack like this and how do we reward them ?By stealing their work. In my eyes, there's no difference between someone who only downloads pirated mp3s and someone who downloads pirated mp3s and then buys the CD. Both are equally guilty for creating demand for pirated music. These artists deserve better. And for those reputable music reviwers out there (likes of Karthik-milliblog etc), I humbly request you to not write up reviews based on stolen music. Please. It may not change your opinion of the soundtrack and that's not what I am concerned about- the concern is the fact that you are encouraging piracy. Excuse the preaching folks and enjoy the music!
[arr] VTV has a flavor of E20U18 ???
VTV, what a suprisingly innovative album by ARR. I am impressed. Took quite some time to start enjoying, but when I did...it was a great feeling. Anyway, did you guys notice the strong flavor of E20U18 in VTV? The mood of Asathura and Oru Nanban, can be seen in Anbil Avan, Kannukkul and Hosanna... Trisha stars in both E20U18 and VTV, coincidence? Cheers, Vin
