KADAL music review

A movie from Madras Talkies, wow every Manirathnam fan would be excited on release of the album. And of course die hard fans of ARR(Oscar boy). We already know the chemistry between ARR and Manirathnam, both of them together gave many albums which we still listen to enjoy unlike seasonal hits from others.

With album ARR has broken the boundaries of Tamil music, yes he didn't stick to general music compositions. This album makes magic and gets Tamil music to International paradigm. This would be the first movie with rural backdrop but the music going completely western. The lyrics penned with strong rural Tamil words and vocal in country style, but the music remains completely western. A first of kind fusion which is really a magic, A new level of musical magic from ARR.

This gives the same feel of every ARR track when we hear it first time."is this from ARR, oh no man, it cant be this way". But when you continue hearing it multiple time you won't stop listening to it,Even if you hear million times. Every time when you listen to it, we feel a new magic, yes every time you will experience a new magic. Vairamuthu, Madhan Karky and Aaryan Dinesh Kanagarathnam did a fantastic job with their pens for the 7 track magic.

CHITTHIRAI NILA - Vijay Yesudas
After VTV's Anbil avan, it was the song for every marriage. With Chitirai Nila, every baby will ask for it :) yeh its a lullaby for every newborn.

ADIYEEE - Sid Sriram,Maria Roe
A song describing his lady love. Really a different experience for this kind of song, generally this sort of song in Tamil cinema will be a lovely melody but not this. With the lyrics it will surely remind you of your lady love :) "Intha kaatu paya aatu kutti pola un pinaal vaaraaneee" Listen it to experience it :)

Moongil thottam - Harini, Sekar, Abhay
A soft magic from the singers with their soft voice and the soft chords from ARR. Will make you close your eyes and dive deep. When Harini starts her voice "Kolathan karayulaa" at 1:30 after a silence, it makes us go crazy. Wonderful composition and vocals.A lovely duet for your romance :)

Elayee Kichan - ARR
Awesomatic song starts praising the sea(Kadal) then slowly comparing his sweetheart with fishes, then it gets more romantic and the music too. A folk touch in between rocks. Below are the lines which highlights the song.

Yemaa Seela - Namma.
Kadalamma Allithara
Aama Seela - Ava.
Alaiveesi Sirikira

Unakaaga Valaiyønu Valaiyønu.
Virichirukkaen Na Thavamirukken - Nee Vizhuvenu.
Velakkena Uthikkitu Muzhichirukken.
Na Arakkirukaen
Nee Vena sonna.

Ethana Macham - Hey.
Ethana Latcham - Atha.
Enni Mudiche - Naama.
Thookam Tholachom

Hey Otha Pidiya - Nee.
Mutham Kudutha - En.
Anna Madiya - Enna.
Vaari edutha Vaari Edutha.

Nenjukullae - Shakthishree
Very nice and magical song we have been hearing for past few days from MTV unplugged. It needs no introductions. A part of all our playlists.

Anbin Vaasalaee - Haricharan
A nice combo for high pitch song and it is delivered. A revolution in spiritual song. This track is a spiritual retreat praising Jesus. Hopefully for Christmas treat :)
Magudi Magudi - Aryan Dinesh, ChinmayeeWowww.... This song is entirely different and make you go wild and crazy. The way it starts and the thundering beats with rap from Dinesh is just aweosome. Chinmayee's voice and verses adds great value to the track. A hyper energetic, thundering, bombastic track to start your day. If you start with this song your productivity will be double :)

These lines can't express everything in the song. Get it and dive deep into it, you will feel it.
From selection of genres for each songs, composition, instruments till singers he did a fabulous job to treat his fans. Hats off sir :)

About the album in one line:
It is magical and you can't stop listening to it and you need to fall in love with it :)
