And I don't like the lyrics being squeezed in (the yaar kaattu sirukki line); it instantly sticks out like a sore thumb

u hit nail on head - it was really squashing/smashing of words stretching the sandhams......

hindi ravan is miles ahead with gulzar handling the fitting part much better......but poetry has never been a problem with neother gulzar nor VM anyday

Guys

At the risk of flaming here, I have to respectfully say that I am not impressed at all with Raavan songs. I go by music and tunes more than the lyrics - so Raavanan would fall in the same category.

I personally think this is the weakest contribution from the ARR-Mani Rathnam combine.

Other than Behne De and Beera, the songs are not inspiring at all and sound very situational.
Ranjha ranjha sounds like an 80s Lakshmikant-Pyarelal duet.

Let us call a spade a spade and point out that the Emperor, this time, has no clothes!

Emperor ARR has had his moment of glory and his reign is now over 18 years! It is probably time to abdicate - I do not know who the next superstar is; there probably is none.

By his own standards, ARR is not upto the mark. I do not think I can listen to the other songs in Raavan in 2 or 3 years time.

I am sorry.

Sunny,

There is one post of yours in the VTV thread. It goes like this.. 'Every album of ARR has recieved negative criticism in the first few weeks. Then, people change their mind'.

Hope that's the same case here. Wait and watch, buddy!

I see many people are joining me in the dissapointment of ARR's latest offering.

The Tamil version is especially weak. Is anyone else wondering how the Kodu Potta song will fit in the same visual situation of the film?

Not impressed at all but you like behne de and beera. Hmmm.

One not so good album (in YOUR honest opinion) & its time for ARR to pack his bags? What exactly do you want from an ARR album?

Experimentation & innovation come at a cost - unfamiliarity. If you'd like something that makes for easier listening* there's plenty of other MDs who deliver the goods. ARRs music is evolving into a free flowing art form. It needs to be approached with an open mind.

*not that ARRs music can't be easy listening!
