Music is my favorite thing always, just like nature and I hate music in the presence of
nature singing. It is always joy listening to music or a soothing song causing great
relief in the presence of anything stress. The expectations used to be high
when first time listening to a song or an anticipated album is released. But once
bought a music album (always film songs) I can’t wait anymore or do anything
until listening to it quite. From the day bought tape recorder, then, I used to
buy audio cassettes (which transferred into CDs once they are introduced)
occasionally on specific actors or music directors. I followed this practice
until two years back and now all songs are only downloaded from internet but
the curious of listening for first time doesn’t hide and it only enhances if
the music was composed by A.R. Rahman.
I have found
rejoice listening to his latest release Mariyaan (an upcoming Tamil film) and
enormously touched by the melting tunes. With simple words, AR has quite engrossed
with his sophisticated wisdom in music and recreated a sound of sea (Kadal). I
would consider Mariyaan equal to Kadal - which I think one of AR’s best
composition ever and my personal favorite on his top chart. ‘Innum Konjam’ is a
wonderful song, quite fascinating and soothing the heart. Tabla has played a
main stream or resource of this song rhyme by singer Vijay Prakash paired with
Swetha Mohan.
‘Nenjae Ezhu’
has sung by AR himself, writing the lyrics along with Kutti Revathi expressed
the depth of eternal love. The song sounds similar to AR’s One Love (a single commemorate
the beauty of Taj Mahal) is an inspirational one enhanced in AR’s emphasis
voice. ‘Naetru Aval’ is so caressing and embracing song in Chinmayees humming vocal
and along with Vijay Prakash provoke a sense unexplainable! The mild instruments
play a silent music supporting the longing mindset. ‘Enga Pona Raasaa’ is a
solo song supporting the same longing mindset in mild music, but in Shakthisrees
embraces voice.
The following songs
are supposed to travel on high spirits and on fast track tunes: ‘Kadal Raasa
Naan’ is quite based on lyrics comprising the struggle on sea and desert sand
penned by actor Dhanush - who lead the film. In Yuvan’s voice the song was
sharpened more! ‘Sonapareeya’ is very catchy and tuned as fast as speed boat, bearing
the lyrics of Vali apart a rap portion written by Sofia Ashraf. The song is
interesting to listen but only I don’t know what Sonapareeya means? The last one
among the seven was, ‘I Love my Africa’. A song based on African tribal music and
quite strange lyrics except Rahman singing on English notes, Blaaze had done
great job with the support of Madras Youth Choir gave voice to Africa.
Quite a
pleasant album, do check and enjoy!

I also like music and almost always have my iPod with me when I work in the yard. But when I'm hiking I prefer the music of the mountains and streams around me.
I do not understand Tamil, but in 2010, we went to Madurai and Rameswaram, and on the way from Madurai to Rameswaram the taxi driver played some Tamil songs. If you ignore the lyrics, the tempo is similar to Punjabi music. Of course, I had to ignore the lyrics :-)
i used to listen to music a lot when i was younger. these days i prefer quiet in the house and outside i listen to birds and nature. :)
I'm not familiar with this music, but I do like listening to all different kinds of music. Also, I just love the peace and quiet of being outdoors with only the birds singing.
Nice review.. and its shows how much you love music! :)
Nice review. Even though I do not understand much Tamil songs, I always liked the music and tune.

Music is one of the most amazing things in the world. It captures so many feelings, emotions, and moments. I love music :)
Hi Jeevan, Music is my life--my soul---also... I grew up with music all around me --and still enjoy all kinds of music. BUT--I do not enjoy music when I'm out in nature. I enjoy hearing the birds sing, the roar of waterfalls, etc....
Hope you are having a good day.
Hugs,
