Posted by Anandhan Subbiah on Dec 20, 2011 in Featured, Movies, MusicNo comments

Muppozhudhum Un Karpanaigal (English: Thoughts of You All Day) is an upcoming romantic film directed by Elred Kumar starring Adharvaa and Amala Paul in the lead roles. Music scored by G. V. Prakash Kumar.

Kangal Neeyae (Sithara)
Sithara has a heavy voice and is a unique choice for this song. There is a heavy mix of carnatic and hindustani tunes but the good news is you will be able to enjoy the song !

Mazhai Pozhiyum (Aalap Raju, G. V. Prakash Kumar, Megha)
This is a breezy song sung by the talented Aalap Raju with ample support from G.V Prakash and Megha. There is definitely a nice rhythm with matching guitars which suits the mood of the song. The vocals somehow overwhelm the background score when the exact opposite would have suited this song better.

Oh Sunandha (Raman Mahadevan, Caroline)
The song starts with a Arabic backdrop and slowly transforms into a nice melody. Again the Rhythm is very good and Raman Mahadevan does a admirable job crooning to the beats. Caroline does her part as well and reminds me of Andrea. The music director has definitely worked hard on the orchestration but something seems to be missing in this song, in specific for this genre. I really think the song would have been more interesting if he had chosen more richer instruments.

Oru Murai(G. V. Prakash Kumar, Blaaze, Andrea Jeremiah)
Heavily synthesized music welcomes the audience to this R&B song. Thamari’s lyrics increase the market value for the song. Blaaze makes his presence felt while Andrea seems to be underused for the most part.

Sokku Podi(Baba Sehgal, Shruti Haasan)
This fast paced song has Babha Seghal and Shruthi Hassan crooning to some decent beats. The song is not all that impressive and I am not even sure Shruti was the best fit for this song

Yaar Aval Yaro(Mohammed Irfan)
This is one of the best songs of the album . Mohammed is a interesting choice for the song , he seems to be filling the role of Haricharan does for Yuvan. I can see shades of Oru Kal oru Kannadi in this sing. Even though this may technically be called a rock cum pathos song I was really not thrilled with the constant change in tempo of the song as it is definitely jarring and annoying to say the least. Irfan’s rendition of the song actually makes it one of the best songs of the album.

This is definitely a decent album by the talented music director . I just felt that the background score is not all that smooth and seems jarring at times. The Young composer can definitely working on that aspect of his music. That said the album is still a must buy !
