What a finish to the article , "If music is divine then is Ilayaraja God?"

Everyone knows the answer

Seems like IR fans are set for a good 2009.

Thats an orkut site where u can find the message posted by me and the reply given by Mr.Srikanth. Mr.Srikanth is one of the producers of the movie nandhalala

I got that, but the title for the second link I posted says
"Ilayaraaja refuses to work with mysskin again!!!"

What's happening??

[jaiganes]

nothing to worry - it was a playful pull by the maestro.

One thing we can understand is that 'Raaja' has felt Mysskin had made him "work" hard for the BGM. We could expect some real great score

IR should have felt energized (instead of drained) after working hard for NK and nandhalala. Hope he converts that energy into some good albums in 2009. I want more people to make him work hard.

Heard all the songs for 2 mins ..here is my review

There is no 11 minute or 10 min song in the cd...

1. Om sivoham om - Vijay Prakash
Runs for 6 mins...full sanskrit song...a great number in praise of lord shiva....typical bhajan..IR Kalakarar...in the lines of Mandir Sabari...wow ...superb number

2. Kannil Paravai - Shreya Goshal
6. oru katril - ilayaraaja

Both songs have the same tune....a beautiful number...superb tune and well rendered by shreya goshal.....
After a very long time...this tune is refreshing...IR ..

Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up!

3. Matha un kovil - Madhumita runs only for 42 secs
5. Amma un pillai - Sadna Sargam
Amma un pillai tune is of matha un kovil.....

4. Bhikshai Pathiram - Madhu Balakrishnan
lyrics: Ilayaraaja
We have already heard this tune.so
