Shankar Raja is flooding the TFM with his audio releases, "Geethai"
His first project with Vijay had released. The film was
initially slated for Tamil New Year release but now postponed for
another month.
Music
of Vijay's last few releases wasn't doing well
like his earlier films. After the failure of Vaseegara he is seriously
concentrating on his new movie Geethai where the music is scored
by Yuvan Shankar Raja. But the same disappointment continues here
too.
"Naan
oadum" by Mano and Tippu should be an introductory
song for Vijay and penned by Vaali. After a long time, Mano has
sung in Yuvan's music and he has done a good job with vocal support
from Tippu. But the tune and lyrics is very ordinary.
It might be a song like the "O unkle" song in Vijay's
earlier film Minsara Kanna.
"Mercury
poove" is next and is sung by Nidesh Gopalan,
Bhavatharani and Bonnie Chakraborthy and lyrics by Pa.Vijay.
The song is not in usual one pallavi and two charanam style. It
begins with a melodious humming by Bhava and suddenly gains speed
and with nerve racking "mercury poove" line. This
is the only better song of the album.
"Vasiyakaara"
sung by Devan and Chithra Sivaraman is a total junk by
all means including the lyrics by Yugabharathi. It features again
in B side with Hariharan's voice. This Vasiyakaara song is just
to fill the cassette tape.
Nothing special in Side A.
Side
B starts off with "Manase" by Tippu, Bonnie Chakraborthy
and Swarnalatha is based on traditional Bengali Fakiri
tune and the credits are promptly given on the cassette cover itself.
Swarnalatha sounds squeaky at places and as usual Tippu has elevated
the spirit of the song by his plastic voice. Pa.Vijay
has given some meaningful lyrics for this song. Finally the last
and the least is "Annamalai" a gana song sung
by Tippu and Devan. Yuvan Shankar has struggled with this song
and the lyrics add to the woeful tune.
Overall
its really surprising whether it is the Yuvan Shankar Raja who scored
the music for Kadhal Kondaen. It completely looses Yuvan's touch.
The songs might become popular when the movie released. But, honestly
there is nothing special in this album. The songs failed to impress
us.
WOW!
: Nothing
Oops! : Yuvan Shankar Raja's music.
VERDICT
: Only buy this album if you're a die hard Vijay fan. Otherwise,
better don't buy this album for good music and don't waste your
time and money.
