Aethiree Music Review

Aethiree

"Podu Nanba" by Karthik-

. It has a catchy tune with some good lyrics at places. The song is penned by Na.Muthukumar. But somehow this song lacks the enthu and the feel, the situation is supposed to give.

"Tamilnaatu" by Thippu and Shalini-

. This song has Kabilan's lyrics and easily gets into the listener by its easy flowing tune. Shalini sings in a stylish slang. The charanam parts strongly resemble the Vidhyasagar's "Mainaave Mainaave" tune from the movie "Thithikudhe". Yuvan should have avoided this.

"Saithaane Saithaane"

- Only Shrilekha Parthasarathy's name features in the singer's credit. Male voice sounds like Shankar Mahadevan. It has lyrics by Pa.Vijay. Following the horrific trend of calling the loved one as "Kaadhal Pisaasu","Azhagaana Raatchasi" and "Azhagiya Asuraa", now it's the turn of Satan. God Save Tamil lyricists!!!. The song reminds us of the fast paced tunes by Sirpi or Karthikraja that usually feature in Sundar C's movies.

"Bottle Mani" by Premji

- A good effort by Yuvan, though Rehman has already done this in "Baba" Rap. The bit song is so electrifying and catchy. Hats off to Premji for his wonderful rendering.

"Mudhanmudhalaaga" by Hariharan

.This song with lyrics by Victordoss is the pick of the album. Hariharan brings out the pain in love in his voice modulations. The song is so attractive and gets into the listener on first listening itself. Lyrics are notable in the charanam parts.

"Ichu thariyaa" by Shankar Mahadevan and Srivarthini

. Won't Pa.Vijay stop repeating his lines? Similar lines were the beginner for a song in the super hit movie "Run". Here with Maddy on the lead role and by the same lyricist, why do they repeat the lines? Why not coming out with some good poetic and innovative thinking? This song is an average one and the charanam part is better than the pallavi.

"Kaadhal vandhu" by Ranjith and Sujatha.

Wow! a breeze that fondles you amidst the twisters. Kaalidasan has written some poetic lines. A beautiful melody that mesmerizes the listener. Yuvan has proved once again that he is strong in composing melodies than fast numbers.
