1.Hasili Fisiliyae

Lyrics: Pa Vijay

Karthik and Harini sing this romantic melody. This is a typical Harris song with a heavy bass background with a nice rhythm. If someone can find out what the title of the song means then they can post a comment !! . This is easily the best song of the album

2. Yeno Yeno Panithuli

Lyrics: Thamarai

Guitar and the Saxophone dominate this song. Shail is a new comer with a lot of potential. There is nothing new about this song but if you are a Harris fan this song will feature in your playlist for at least a short duration.Andrea has exented her voice after working with GV Prakash.

3. Damakku Damakku

Lyrics: Na Muthukumar

A rather unique song sung by the versatile Benny Dayal. I was not all that thrilled with the composition or the arrangement but it is a decent song.

4. Vaarayo Vaarayo

Lyrics: Kabilan

The piano interlude is interesting and the guitar piece makes it even better. Chinmayee sings her heart out for this song and Unnikrishnan is as usual at his best. Harris has also tried the violin in this song with an opera mix. This song has the potential to challenge ‘Hasili Fisiliyae’ for the top honors in this album.

5. Dekho Dekho

Lyrics: Vaali

A rap song with a hindustani mix.Vaali has used words to substitute for the rhythm. There is lot of unique instrumentation which makes for a fascinating mix.

6. Maasi Maasi Listen here

Lyrics: Vaali

Mano is back after a long time but that is all there is to this song.

This is a decent album by Harris. After Varanam Ayiram and Ayan the expectations were pretty high. Harris could have easily done better. Surya and Nayanthara are sure to scorch the screen and the songs should get more visibility after the release of the movie.

Varanam Ayiram was a terrific musical hit and Ayan is the next movie for Harris Jayaraj and Surya. There must have been obviously a lot of pressure on Harris to deliver the goods. Vairamuthu has penned the lyrics for all the songs.The one issue that the detractors of Harris throw at him is his inconsistency.Harris has played it safe with this album but he could have done better. He has to maintain high standards if he is to keep up with his now internationally famous counterpart.

The cast :

Starring: Surya, Prabhu, Tamanna

Director: K.V. Anand

Music Director: Harris Jeyaraj

Producer: M. Saravanan, M.S. Guhan, Aruna Guhan, Aparna Guhan

Honey Honey (Devan, Sayanora Philip)
A heavy bass oriented song with deep African beats. Sayanora’s voice is different to say the least. There are some nice moments in the song but I really did not know what to make of this song.The impressive part of the song is the nice change in pitch from high to low in the middle , with the violin playing a major part.

Nenje Nenje (Harris Ragavendra,Malathi)
This is a terrific song with the typical Harris magic written all over it. The lyrics are clear and precise. There is a nice little contest between the violin and other instruments in the middle which is very interesting. Malathi has the same intense voice as Jeyashree . Harris suits the song perfectly. You would think that you have heard pieces of the song before but that is expected of Harris. This song will be a sure hit.

Oo Aayiye Aayiye (Benny Dayal,Hariharan,Chinmayee)
This is a nice and cool peppy song.Benny Dayal is becoming a permanent fixture in albums of high profile music directors. Even though the song is good but does not really blow you away. There is a nice rhythm to the song.Hariharan and Chinmayee as usual give their best efforts.

Pala Pala (Hariharan)
A fun song with a heavy Spanish influence. Hariharan is a surprise choice and he does not let us down.The song is fast paced with easy lyrics and has the potential to be a blockbuster .

Vizhi Moodi ( Karthick)
This is the best song of the album. It looks like Harris has tried a new style with this song. He must have chosen the beat and then laid his tune around it. The end product is very impressive with the beat remaining the same from start to end. The lyrics is another strong factor.

The album is nowhere close to Varanam Ayiram but still good enough to buy. You can listen to the songs Here.

The golden combination of Gautham and Harris are back and the album simply rocks. Gautham has always managed to get the best out of Harris and this album is no exception. Harris has still not stepped out of this comfort zone but has managed to innovate within his self imposed boundaries.It will be impossible not to praise Harris for an excellent album. Thamarai has written the lyrics for all the songs except one which is penned by Na. Muthukumar. The strong emphasis on lyrics and melody is the forte of Harris and he has arguably been very much responsible in reinstating melody and emphasis on the vocals back in Tamil music.Harris has relied heavily on the guitar and has made the best use of it in this album

Nearly all the songs are sure to rule the charts for a long time to come.

Adiyae Kolluthey (Krish, Benny Dayal, Shruthi Hassan)
A typical Harris Jeyaraj Song with a heavy metal guitar interlude. Shruthi Hassan is the surprise package . She has a unique voice and that adds an exotic flavor to the song. Krish is another talented new comer and he actually sets the platform for Shruthi to build on. This song is sure to be a rage among the youth audience.The best thing about this piece is my American friend who is a avid heavy metal enthusiast enjoyed the song and wanted to listen to it again even though he did not understand a single word in the lyrics.

Nenjukkul Peidhidum(Hariharan, Devan, V.Prasanna)
A very impressive song sung by the evergreen Hariharan.The lyrics are as usual very prominent.The song has a nice rhythm to it.Hariharan has taken the song to greater depths with his amazing ability to control his rendition even at a high pitch. Make sure you don’t miss the haunting interlude in the middle.This song is sure to be a big hit.

Yethi Yethi (Benny Dayal, Naresh Iyer, Solar Sai)
A fast paced song with an Arabic feel to it. Harris has composed this song for the dance floors and has done a terrific job with the tune and the music arrangements. It is refreshing to see Harris experiment a bit with his arrangements.

Mundhinam (Naresh Iyer, Prashanthini)
The awesome Naresh Iyer gets to sing the best song of the album. Prashanthini , another new comer is another impressive singer and matches Naresh to make this song very memorable.The guitar piece in the background sums up the mood of the song. The lyrics as in any Harris composition take center stage. The music arrangements help this free flowing song to keep the pace. The overall rhythm reminds me of the George Michael hit “Faith” although there is absolutely nothing else is common

Oh! Shanthi Shanthi (Clinton, S.P.B.Charan)
Another impressive song. This sounds like a faster version of Nenjukkul Peidhidum. There is a delightful rhythm to this fast paced but melodious song. Charan reminds us of his illustrious father. Clinton acts as the perfect foil to charan. He gets the chance to hum to the heavy metal guitar and he has done a commendable job.

Ava Enna (Karthik, V.Prasanna)
The Kuthu song of the album.I am really not sure what Harris or Gautham were thinking but this must be to satisfy the masses. It is neither fast or appealing so this must be one of those experiments which failed . This song could still be a hit with the Gana crowd.

Anal Maelae(Sudha Raghunathan)
A slow and melodious song. The music arrangements reminded me of the 80’s in a good way. Sudha has such a terrific control over her voice and she sustains it throughout the song. She is also able to express the anguish and sorrow of the character clearly with her voice. Harris deserves a lot of credit for trusting Sudha to perform with minimal music arrangements.

Buy two copies ! This album is a must have for any avid music lover.
