Muppozhudhum Un Karpanaigal – Music Review
Posted at December 21st, 2011 under Featured, Music Review, Review | Comments
The title rolled from a song of the yesteryears, this album is the need of the hour. Amidst Kolaveri and Papparappa some sort of full length romance is the cocktail for the young hearts. It is to be highlighted that it is only in the songs for this album that GVP exerted that much of emotions on his personal love for Saindhavi, as hinted by himself in an interview. Then there could not be any shortcoming for the real charm of melodious tunes. Much contrary to his earlier albums, GVP has depended Thamarai alone for the numbers, much akin to Harris Jeyaraj – Gautham Menon combination. With the single Oru Murai already on the hit list, the co numbers are here after the launch of the audio. The review of them follows:
Mazhai Pozhiyum
Playback: Aalap Raju , Megha and G.V. Prakash
Lyrics: Thamarai
The fusion of the Indian western and the original western makes this number a unique application of instrumentation. GVP’s innate desire to innovate for every album is apparent here. Aalap Raju lives and enliven the song aided by Megha and GVP’s intermittent voice over. Thamarai’s lyrics can be best adjudged for the sake of longing romance. But this number does not seem to create any sad note but the flying clinkers of joy. What makes this song clumsy is the too much mix of guitars and drums but it still creates some effect. A good opening for GVP’s Pandora box.
Kangal Neeye
Playback: Sithara
Lyrics: Thamarai
If Akkam Pakkkam is the sole recitation of soul-filled song from GVP this one is too mellifluous. The feminine emotions, as caught by the verses from Thamarai, befit for the situation and Sittara is quite exceedingly brilliant. Her rendition of the lyrics with great penchant for mind boggling melody is a real attribution to the overall effect of the song. GVP has infused a sense of aesthetic beauty in words and instruments. Perhaps, the song is ideal for night listening and during loneliness. Truly the womanhood will benefit a lot with this song.
Oh Sunanda
Playback: Raman Mahadevan, Caroline and Megha
Lyrics: Thamarai
An echo of Sankar Mahadevan looms large in the number and Megha once again proves her point for this fast paced rhythmic sequence. The song is a replete of AR Rahman’s earlier numbers for his Bombay. But what distinguishes this is the technological illustrations of instruments. Caroline’s voice is an added flavor for this Pizza. By all means, GVP should feel little disappointed with this number.
Oru Murai
Playback: G.V Prakash , Andrea and Blaaze
Lyrics: Thamarai
So many moons have passed for giving our mind to such a scintillating song. GVP said this number made him think more for the other numbers. Thamarai could pinch on her skin for this composition and GVP felt that the number has yielded much popularity overseas. This only resulted with the promo of the song in the lands of the US. Blaaze has rendered a tight roped voice with flawless rendition. Andrea too has come out with such best outfit of rendition. The verse diction from Thamarai is sure to kindle the teens and adolescents much. The substance of the song has already meant the desired result among the audience.
Yaar Aval Yaaro
Playback: Mohammad Irfan
Lyrics: Thamarai
The reciprocity of love, as much as Anbe Anbe Kollathe, from Jeans is carved with Thamarai’s lyrics. GVP should have energized this song with his personal vain for his lady love. However, the swift voice of Mohamed Irfan is a difficult task to accommodate at the initial listening. This lyrics remind us of the verses of Na.Muthukumar in Paiya –Thuli Thuli Mazhaiayi Vanthale. There are striking similarities between these two songs in terms of adoring the lady love. The instruments are far from regular and conventional. Yet GVP succeeds in bringing out magnetic pull of the string with the relics of lyrics.
Sokku Podi
Playback: Baba Segal and Shruti Hassan
Lyrics: Thamarai
The innovative mix of the Bangra tune with the native verses from GVP may sound new but it seems that it is a complex attempt. As told by GVP, Shruti Hassan has made her efforts to make this item number in her varied tone. Baba Shegal is at flair in this rendition as he feels comfortable and convenient with the verses. Thamarai is said to be at the select form of choosing the still literary piece of words. Though a combination of item effect for the native touch, there is no instant impact for the audience.
Verdict
Of course, the album comes from GVP who has been polishing his chords with latest arraignment of tunes. MUK can be a true love ethic for the youngsters as a movie. Yet not all the numbers portray that much of keenness. Barring OruMurai, Mazhai Poliyum, and Kangal Neeye rest are of average score. Perhaps, GVP would have reserved many other tunes for upcoming movies. It is quite disappointing to note that the producers gave two early hits Vinnaithandi Varuvaya with the legendry AR Rahman and the next Ko with the hiatus Harris Jeyaraj.
