Pachaikili Muthucharam audio review.


Music: Harris Jayaraj


First listen - Ella paatum kaetta madri keedhu.. not a very good album, I say.
Second listen - Still.. engayo kaetta madri keedhu, paravailla.
Third listen - Mmmm, idhu nalla irukke.. an album that makes me work towards liking it.
Fourth.. - HJ back in form and how!

1. Unakkul Naan - Bombay Jayashree
Definitely not a nursery rhyme melody like "Paartha mudhal naale or Suttum vizhi sudare" for you to like it instantly. Sounds eerie at first but trust me, it gets way better with repeated listens. Bombay Jayashree's trademark brillance combined with HJ's lilting music and Thamarai's lyrics hit the song out of the ball park.

2. Unn Siripinil - Gauthami Rao, Robby
Ahh.. Just the song you were probably expecting out of the HJ stable. Nursery rhyme melody galore but slow and sexy nevertheless. I was just thinking.. this track would attain a whole new level if Shreya Goshal were to pep it up with some sighs and groans, but I digress. This is a good song.

3. Kadhal Konjam - Naresh Iyer
A "I'm so happy to be in love" song. Naresh Iyer is the man. Hummable and original tune but instruments remind you of New York Nagaram though. Harris needs to hook up with soundsamplesrahmanhasntusedyet.com pronto.

4. Unakkul Naan - Madhusree
Sadhna Sargam soundalike Madhusree recreates the magic of the first track in her own special way. I'd skip this one the first time around.

5. Karu Karu - Karthik, Naresh Iyer, Krish
This song rocks. Seriously, its like one of those power ballads with almost feminine crooning in between.

Verdict: Harris evolves. This is grown up music. Surely not epic but this set of sweet sounding clean film songs that provide a peek into Harris' musical genius will not disappoint - Definitely a must buy, if you're influenced by guys who express their opinion in pyjamas, sitting at messy desks with potato chips and beer.

Hey! Don' know where exactly u sourced your info... but it is obvioulsy an incorrect one. You ought to know that Unn Siripinil was sung by RAFI & SOWMYA Rao. Don't believe? Get an original audio CD of PKM manufactured and distributed in Chennai (by HIT musics), read the print & you would learn this to be true...
Umm, actually it's true whether or not you get the CD..

Hi man. Thanks a lot for pointing that out.

I got the info from the official site http://www.pachaikilimuthucharam.com/pachaikili-muthucharam-songs.html.

I can understand Rafi becoming Robby but Gauthami can't be a typo for Sowmya. Hmm, maybe Sowmya va surukki chellama Gauthami nu koopiduvaangalo ennavo.. yaaru kanda?
