1st of all I need to mention abt THE RISING. Many say that they were disappointed the the tracks of THE RISING. I too felt the same initially. But on repeated hearing, its growing. This is not new with ARR albums. Infact ARR late growing tracks becomes more successful then the catchy songs on 1st hearing. Some have already stated how the songs are growing on them even though they had initial disapointments. But i am afraid with the fact that, "will such late growing tendency will be helpful in the current dull music market?" But, It looks this the rite time for ARR to hit back in Tamil. He is currently involved in few commercial film in Tamil, unlike hindi where he has a long line of off-beat movies. Some recent articles said that tamil music industry is in a bad shape rite now. Only Chandramukhi managed to sell few lakh copies and that too because of Rajini's star value and not because of Vidyasagar. As, ARR is the "Rajini of Tamil Music", I feel he could bring back the lost glory of Tamil music industry. I hope all ARR fans r determined to buy the original stuffs and bring profit to the rights holder. Last year was a black mark for ARR as there were no takers initially for AE and NEW. But later it proved to be profitable for the rights holder. Ofcourse, the audio rights price is not as high as it used to be in 1999-2000. I feel BABA was the highest as its audio rts were sold for 2C. It is sad to hear that, even if the songs are hit and popular amongest the public, the originals just remains in the store rack. I feel this should not happen to the up coming ARR albums.
