Vaanam Music Review

For several days, I didn't hear any upcoming film's music albums. When friends play a song that I haven't heard, I ask them which film does that song belong. They see me surprised, "என்ன, இது தெரியலையா?" For a couple of days, I have been hearing some upcoming music albums.

Knowing that Vaanam in Yuvan Shankar Raja's music is going to be released tomorrow, I heard it's songs (after a month of it's music launch!). I haven't ever written music reviews but may be because of marathon music hearing session plus a lot of time available for me to waste, I write this one:

"Vaanam"
A song with quality in this album!
Na. Muthukumar's penned this philosophical song where an awakened soul finds the path to happiness, after it was wounded.
Yuvan's music+vocal magic retains.

"Who Am I"

Surprise song. Drums and guitar play gives a rock number - new to tamil cinema.
Benny Dayal sings a man's quest about himself in a despair state but sounding like a Superman's or Spiderman's signature music!

"No Money No Honey"

A good kuthu paatu sung by Simbu, Srikanth Deva and Andrea(!) about the influence of money in our lives.
Fold your tongue, fold your dhoti, lift your chest, tap your feet, shake your hips...

"Cable raja"
An intro kuthu song for Simbu with his dad's immortal dialogue - "வாடா எம் மச்சி, வாழக்கா பஜ்ஜி...
உன் உடம்ப பிச்சி, போடப்போறேன் பஜ்ஜி..."
and typical "டண்டனக்க டண்டணக்கா..." music.

"Evandi Unna Pethan"
There's nothing much to say about this song, as everybody would have heard it. A club song with worst lyrics by Yuvan and Simbu. If you liked "Adrarra nakku mukka..." or "Manmatha raasa" then this is the song for you.

Somewhere in the web, I saw an agitated guy's comment:

Hmmm... ஐ அண்டர்ஸ்டாண்டு இஸ் பீலிங்க்ஸ்...

இத வரலாறு காணாத வெற்றி பாடல்-ன்னு வேற போஸ்டர்ல போடறாங்க!

ஐய்யோ சாமி...

Verdict: Pass.
