Checked out INDHA......Very nice.
G.V.P sings very well, appealing classical guitar orchestration.

Thaai ......

தாய் தின்ற மண்ணே ....... விஜய் யேசுதாஸ் is amazing with grand violin section with chorus dhiranas and strong percussion interlude.... raga improvisations of the melody gives me the urge to listen செவ்வானமே சீர் கொண்டு வா......விஜய்'s அப்பா - யேசுதாஸ் & ஷைலஜா .. old compostion by K.V.Mahadevan.

The second version
The Cholan Ecstacy has a POWERFUL usage of percussions - udukkai, mirudhangam, tabala, ghatam etc.. in various sections of the composition.
Very nice classical raga fusion pathos.
Loving both the versions.

good job, G.V.P. Rest later..... Vinatha.

Listened to the songs.

Thaai thindra manne (both the tracks) are extraordinary compositions!

Oh eesa did not appeal to me.

King arrives and Celebration of Life are amazing theme music kinda stuff.

Indha paadhai is good too...

Un mela aasadhan

Selva & Yuvan make peace!

By Moviebuzz | Monday, 15 June , 2009, 11:00


There are no permanent friends or enemies in cinema. The audio launch of Aayirathil Oruvan saw the re-union of the hit director - music director combo of Selvaraghavan and Yuvan Shankar Raja.

The surprise guest at the audio launch at University centenary hall in Chennai was Yuvan who came to wish Selva and watch GV Prakash抯 first live performance on stage. He sat through the whole show, hugged Selva and left with a smile.

Later, Yuvan told Sify.com: ?I was waiting to hear the audio of Aayirathil Oruvan and was pleased when producer Ravendran invited me for the launch. Selva has always been special and will remain to be so. I think the audio rocks?

An overwhelmed Selva with a smile: 揌e is my brother. It is one of the happiest days in my life and I love him?

The views expressed in the article are th

Selvaraghavan抯 super show

By Moviebuzz | Monday, 15 June , 2009, 10:35


The audio launch of Selva Raghavan抯 Aayirathil Oruvan was one of the best launches in recent time.

There were no tall claims made by the director and the launch function itself was unique in many ways.

Selva in his note to the media said: 揟his is not a genre film. I wanted to make this film, because I have not made a film like this ever. Aayirathil Oruvan is truly every man抯 story卋ut it happens only to one man in a million.?P> The highlight of the function was that four of the 10 songs in the album were performed live on stage by G.V Prakash and his team along with the singers who sang in the film.

Selva and music director GV Prakash made it point to have only south Indian singers like Karthik, Vijay Yesudas, Andrea, Nithyasree Mahadevan, Dhanush and Aishwarya Dhanush to sing for the film.

The novelty of the show lied in the fact that even the audio launch had a story board. Right form the invite card that resembled like a manuscript, the ambience, music, the audio CD which was brought to the dais on a palanquin, everything was classy.

For the first time ever, no trailer or a clipping including song from the film or its making was shown to the invitees. This has actually stirred a curiosity around the film, as Selva was able to keep the look of the film shrouded in a mystery.

The live performance of GV Prakash was the highlight of the evening. GV as he is known among friends became the third and youngest music director to perform live on stage after Ilayaraja and AR Rahman. In fact AR Rahman抯 mother Kareema Begum along with her daughters was present to cheer him.

Another outstanding performance came from actor Dhanush and his wife who sang the peppy number Un Mele Aasadhaan?/I> along with Andrea. There was a fashion show, a Kalari performance, Chenda melam by women from Kerala, a classical dance by actress Poorna choreographed by Sivasankar master.

Selva Raghavan preferred to keep a low profile as he sat with his wife Sonia among the audience and enjoyed the show. Later in his thanksgiving speech he said: 揈veryone in the film including the producer, actors, cameraman and myself have worked hard to reach the next level but the real heroes I would like to thank are the hundreds of junior artists who worked 252 days in different locations with a smiling face. I want to do more films in Tamil and do not intend to go to Bollywood?

oh eesa is a lift from "srinivasa govindha" a devotional song...maalai neram is good but spoilt by the female singer....un mela aasadhhann sure copied from yuvan's adada va....king arrives is inspired from harvestor of sorrow..thaai thindra mannae and celebration of lif remains standout compositions...overall an average album imo...but believe it will rock with visuals

thaai thindra manne & Pemmane Great work by GVP

Vairamuthu after a long time worked for me in this song
nelladiya nilam
solladiya avai
villadiya kalam
kalladiya silai....beautiful and apt for remembering a lost land & glory. the whole song is a bliss from lyrical and musical veiwpoint . Earlier he did this to me in KM with panaimara kaade...paraivaigal koode...

un Mela Aasaithaan = Adada vaa I think it must have been composed by yuvan earlier for AO and when he broke off with SR should've taken the song to sarvam. While SR should've made GVP build the song from the scratches leftover by Yuvan

Ungalukku vishyame theriyatha innum? Then see here:

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/E...ow/4640077.cms

"Yuvan gave the tune of one of the songs composed for Aayirathil Oruvan to Vishnu Vardhan, who used it as Arya’s introduction song in Sarvvam (Adadada...)!" Exactly as you said!

It clearly states that oh eesa is composer's mix..which i believe is a remix..so you cant say its a lift

Listened to all songs thoroughly...

Don't know which one to pick as THE BEST. I ignored Oh Eesa, Un Mela aasadhan songs. Listened to them once or twice. Just skipped them...

Thaai thindra manne (both versions) are astonishing while "Pemmane" stands out for its lyrics and rendition... Malai Neram (which many did not like) was very much convincing with breezy lyrics and simple orchestration. Andrea - Not bad. Indha paadhai is good but I'm not going gaga over this song...

Vairamuthu for the Chola Period lyrics...

வாழ்ந்தாலும்,
சந்ததிகள் வீழ்ந்தாலும்,
தாய் மண்ணில் சாகாமல்,
சாகமாட்டோம்......


OTOH, Selva's lyrics in Maalai Neram song are very breezy and romantic

ஓடும் காலங்கள்,
உடன் ஓடும் நினைவுகள்,
வழி மாறும் பயனங்கள்,
தொடர்கிறதே....
--
உன் கரம் கோர்க்கையில்,
நினைவு ஓராயிரம்,
இரு கரம் பிரிகையில்,
நினைவு நூறாயிரம்

--

Recent days'la vandha albums'la yendha album'um, nAn indha aLavukku anubavichu kEtkala... Emotionally moved by the songs, compositions, lyrics and the rendition.

GVP, Selva and Vairamuthu

GVP - You have used the opportunity to the max you can. You have made it!!! Your best album till date... Credits to Selvah!
Yeah..As of now, AO is the best album of 2009

After the first listen I was like wtf! But the songs really grow on you. Very haunting. Hooked on to the fantastic "Celebration of life" (Naveen - Rahman's flautist?) and the superb "The King arrives". PenmaaNE, Oh Eesa composers's mix are superb as well. Thaai thinRa mannE needs a few more listens. Vijay Yesudas struggles, IMO. Yesduas himself would have been much better. GVP guitar-la pugundhu viLaiyaaduRaar in the melodies.

Selva is a freakin' genius I say! Now I can't wait to see the visuals. He seems to be huge fan of PBS. idhu enna maayam from 7G, now two songs in this and the veteran has done remarkably well
