My favorite is Anbae Idhu (Sky)... which you've not mentioned above. I just used two gems in my personal videos... have a look at them... hope u enjoy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIgXyDm-nEY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5Ga8gbFsPY Arijit 2009/12/18 ARRvind <[email protected]> Movie : Rhythm Music : A R Rahman Cast : Arjun , Meena, Jyothika , Ramesh Aravind, Lakshmi, Nagesh Lyrics : Vairamuthu Direction : Vasanth These days, seldom does a movie and its music captivates us because of its sheer simplicity! "Rhythm" definelty falls under such category. The music and movie both moves like a sweet breeze not tampering upon each other(except "Aiyyo Pathikicchi" though!). While the movie is based on the realistic challenges that people face while setting a steady course for their lives, the songs of this movie is based upon the quintessential 5 elements of this planet. All the 5 elements, viz. Land, Water, Fire, Air and Sky, are showcaused so perfectly in the songs that makes the listener go awestruck and dance in reverence! Nadhiye Nadhiye (Water) ---> Unni Menon and Chorus "Dheem Tanana Dheem Tanana Dheem Tananaa..." thus begins a swooning and swaying music in the voice of ever refreshing Unni Menon. The water gushing sounds in this song makes anyone imagine oneself bathing in a mighty river and enjoying the swim. Vairamuthu's comparisons between a woman and river are plain historic and can't be rewritten by anyone! His lyrics goes above par excellence which deserves every accolades and awards. The female chorus hums and gushes even as Unni Menon describe their beauties. A stunning composition by Rahman ji which registers inside all music lovers for many years to come.! Thaniye Thanandhaniye (Land) ---> Shankar Mahadevan A song based on the Land which talks about its patience and stability to with-hold the burden. As usual, its a tailor made song for Shankar Mahadevan who also makes his appearance in the video matching some steps to the tunes of ARR. I personally liked only the pallavi(Mukhda) part of the song. I somehow felt the Charanam(Antara) looses its fizz in the middle and later bounce back to its glory. The same song was totally rejuvenated by Rahman sir in the hindi song "Nachley.." sung by Daler Mehendi for the movie Lakeer. The interludes of this song has some great instrumental pieces which pushes one to an imaginary world. Aiyyo Pattikicchhi (Fire) ---> Udit Narayan , Vasundhara Das The only element which appears to have added for commercial/ box office compulsories in this movie. Audio is quite appealing and sounds very seducting. Vairamuthu binds in the passion of love with a wild fire and writes some daring words like "..Neruppai Neruppal Anaippom Vaa...." . Picturised on Ramya Krishnan and Raju Sundaram, the visuals are bright red flames all over. Udit Narayan, as usual butchers the language and yet sounds like a perfect match for the song. Nothing to tell about Vasundhara Das, its her forte`. The flute(may be Navin) piece is the most appealing part in the interludes and so is Vasundhara's "tatarataaaa..." hummings. Kaatre En Vasal (Wind) ---> Unni Krishnan, Kavita Krishnamurthy Subramaniam _________________________________________________________________ Windows 7: Find the right PC for you.
