Heard it for some 10 times now. The album is a good work by ARR. Good experiment with techno. But definitely not the best i expected and not my taste too. I dont blame ARR here for not meeting my taste :P
Lyrics by Viaramuthu and his son - simply extra ordinary. When i talk about lyrics, i do remember how difficult it was for me to understand what the words were really, as pronounced by 'Kash n Krissy' in Irumbile idhayam. There are only total of 4lines of tamil and i really had to hear it a million times to understand it completely. To quote one example, i heard "DEVA ILLAI" the first instance while she did one of the lines. I was lost. I heard it time and again to understand it to be "THEVAI ILLAI". AWESOME was the only word i could think of :P.
Probably ARR should take care of tamil pronunciation. Which he has been let down in the past few albums.
Another thing that really irked me was when i heard the kathal anukkal for the first time. it was the voice of Vijay prakash. The start was like a drunkard. But eventually got used to it now and accepted even someone singing as a drunkard would be wonderful :P
Use of YOGI B is nice. I really missed Karthik and Blazze in this album, who have been a regular in ARR's soundtrack for sometime now. After a long time Hariharan and Sadhana got togethar for ARR. Nice lyrics in Arima, but sadly i dont find myself liking the tune.
My pick of the album is Irumbile Oru idhayam. Blown away by mix of sound and lyrics. Apart from that the lyrics of Pudhiya manithan was impressive. To quote a line
என் தந்தை மொழி தமிழ் அல்லவா
The entire songs talks about the contrast between the creator and the robo i guess. Nice lyrics when we look closer at the first and second para.
Impressive album, but definitely not gonna be catchy to the 'patta thotti' makkal.
