Hi, and some things to be cleared....
Hi,
i've been lurking this forum for many days and i've finally decided to post.
First of all, disclaimer : all opinions are my own. Take them if you wish, leave them if you dont. I'm talking from a fan/listener's perspective all the time.
1). Anyone who thinks that A.R.R is greater than I.R. or I.R. is greater than A.R.R. is a fool. Dont call yourselves fans of A.R.R or I.R.
2). Both are geniuses in their own respects. A.R.R has excellent "sound" orchestration and I.R.R has excellent original orchestration.
3). At first, i was a hardcore Rahman fan only and laughed at others when they mentioned IR. Then, i joined a band as a keyboard player and we had to play 99% IR's songs, and THEN, i realized what a genius he is and what a fool i've always been.
4). I'm now a A.R.R and IR fan. I also like YSV's music (some of it) and dont like Harris J's music much. Personal preference again.
5). Remember IR's time period? They had REAL instruments, REAL tape recording, REAL cut and paste. If you wanted a 4-bar rhytm to loop the entire song, sorry, you didnt have that. Just imagine how hard that is.
6). IR wrote score for his instruments. His BGMs are second to none. His chord progressions are unbelievable. IR's voice was magic. Period.
7). A.R.R has state of the art equipment and has a lot of people working under him. He plays keyboard fantastically. The guy G.V.Prakash who worked for him in the album "A.Aah" played keyboard in our band and is cousin of A.R.R. His choice of instruments is unique, IMO ofcourse.
8). Composing music for all these years is not easy. You shouldnt be saying silly things about these people because they are the reason tamil industry is still alive. They work hard. Calling such great people "naai" "panni" is third-grade character. Those who do so, take some pills and try to get a life.
Enough said, all these are just my opinions, and mine alone. Take them if you want or ignore me if you choose to.

hi sam....,
actually..,all ir fans like a.r.r and all a.r.r fans love ir songs...but the fact is they like to have their favourites above all in the world....they are just fighting for the sake of entertainment....they all know know the brilliance of both people.
