[tscii:bae1fde2b9]Another controversy here
...

I agree with Raja fan. Anuradha Sriram is surely lacking the expression. Chorus and humming in prelude is not up the the original. Other things that is lagging behind are the first interlude, the...

"Nee thoongum nerathil, En nenjam thoongaathu" from Manasellam.

What a mesmerizing melody!

But IR has lived up to the expectations in most of his recent albums.

I remember reading that oboe was used for Guru - Malayalam.

இளையராஜா விமர்சகரான இவர் இளையராஜாவின் இசையை ஏன் விமர்சிக்க வேண்டும்.
அந்த கோணல் புத்திக்காரரின் பெயரை type செய்யவே கை கூசுகிறது.

Here is the much awaited Hindu review of Naan Kadavul.
Very impressive. Very positive.
I am surprised by the comparison with SlumD. Mil.
Haven't see either films yet. But I don't want to miss NK....

IR has to work more at home on what he is doing now. He must work more on more non-film albums like Thiruvasagam, symphony, HTN and NBW.
If he did that the world would come here and recognize him....

The list easily justifies, why IR doesn't need any award.

I am really surprised to see the recognition talk is still going on in this thread. Our IR is the only person who can serve us FULL MEALS. அறு சுவை உணவு. I don't know whether we will be discussing...

உளியின் ஓசை ரசிகன் ஒருவன் இன்னமும் இங்கே தான் இருக்கிறேன்.
எனது சமீபத்திய CDல் நான் கடவுள், நந்தலாலா மற்றும் உளியின் ஓசை பாடல்களை பதிவு செய்து பலமுறை கேட்டு விட்டேன்.

இந்த மூன்று...

Heard all the songs, sometimes teared. Raja you made my day. What a wonderful way to start the year.

Could it be Ilamai Idho Idho or Mari Mari Ninne or what? May be Pon Vaanam Panneer Thoovudhu or Thaazham Poove Vasam veesu?
Adi aathadi, Poongaathu virumbuma, Chittan Chittan Kurivi, Kaaliyil...

IR might refer this to KR, YSR or VS.

I agree. Fools don't invest on IR. Good..isn't it ?[/quote]

raja_fan, a nice reply. Couldn't stop laughing.

If I remember correctly, Rajkiran was the one who gave the title "ராக தேவன்" (Raga Devan) to IR.

Thank you app_engine for posting the article here. I truly truly enjoyed reading K. Balachander's speach.

I am quite eager to see how Raja... Rajaathirajan..Intha...Raja gets remixed. The song is already uses only western instruments (or just drums)!

Will Imaan be remixing it into a NAATUPURA style?...

I don't feel that IR is out or not capable. IMHO the only capable MDs we have in தமிழ் are only IR and ARR. But both of them are not in the right form or for whatever reason does not give us what...

I agree with irir123's comments on Bollywood nominations and quality. Every body here is for publicity. I honestly think that even IR will not recommend nominating CK. After a very long time I...

I can't stop seeing the resemblence of RANGU RANGAMMA with RAAKAMA KAYA THATTU (dhalapathi) particularly the interludes. Also not to mention the trace of VEERA PANDI KOTTAYILE (thiruda thiruda) in...

Thank you Vigneshram. The music is available on emusic.com

I am currently downloading it.

I wish Illayaraja a very happy birthday and a long and healthy life.

I liked the Cheeni Kum songs very much even though the originals are a class of its own. The northees getting lucky because Raaja wants to expirement in Hindi. Yaan Petra Inbam Peruga IvViyagam. I am...

Ajantha absolutely is one of the best albums of IR in the recent years.
The best thing I liked about the ablum is the variety.
The best of the album is Thoorigai indri and Ilamai..
