Hulk,

Good to see you here after a very long time. Any samples for lesser mortals like us, who have to wait long for a friend to courier the CD as Bangalore shops seem totally unaware that music exists in Malayalam films!!! Atleast the recent ones!!

irir123,

Yup. Very intriguing indeed. It would have been a normal review pattern for Raja's albums if someone other than RajaAlltheway was not enthusiastic. Hulk, RS and yours truly are the usual suspects who like whatever Raja delivers and there are enough people who don't like the new Raja. But RajaAlltheway in the mix makes this very intriguing. So I am also keen to hear the album now. Anyway, I am always keen to hear Raja's albums only that I want to hear this _right now_ and there is no way of doing it

It is available in 123musiq.com

But forget it ! The album has nothing great to offer...run of the mill stuff.

Yaaro paadunnu is good, but reminds of "Thendral varum theru..." .

That Karthik song..What a predictable rehash

**raja_fan** · 23rd April 2010, 10:44 AM

I wonder if Karthik is accepting these songs just for the respect towards IR / money. He would not have surely enjoyed singing these songs...

Sathyan..., you are fading sir !

raja_fan,

You are back with a bang

and parity is restored. It is just like olden times, where you don't like an album and Hulk loves it. BTW, you had the same comments for 'Bagyadevatha' as well

Now I am more than keen to listen to this album!!!

**raja_fan** · 23rd April 2010, 10:52 AM

Will anyone deny that Bhagyadevatha was an earlier sign of downfall of Sathyan - IR combo ?

At least was Bhagyadevatha a fresh set of compositions like "Kochu kochu santhoshangal" or "Manasinakkare" ?

**Sureshs65** · 23rd April 2010, 10:59 AM

aaah raja_fan. You reminded me of 'Bhagyadevatha'. What set of compositions. 'Swapnangal' is something to die for. What a song. And so is 'adi thirathanni'. It was a class album, no doubt in my mind and will stand up to any other Sathyan - Raja combo.

I, for one, do deny it. I think Bhagyadevatha was much better than their previous outing InnathE.. And I would give my right arm for SwapnangaL kaNNezhudhiyA.

AM,

I too feel 'Bagyadevatha' sort of got back Sathyan on track. From all indications it was a decent hit in Kerala. 'Innathe..' did not do too well, given the Sathyan-Mohanlal expectation.

.. and my left arm too..
