Kadhal Virus Review

"The album kicks in with the very catchy ye ye ennachu sung by Vasundhara Das in manner that only she can. Next is a beauty of a ballad sonnalum by Unnikrishnan and Harini.

Vaan nila by Srinivas and Karthik is a highly innovative rock-n-roll track that would not let your feet rest. S P Balu is in his usual fantastic form in the heart warming yenthan vanin. Rahman takes off again into a very progressive FTV style track in bailmore with T R Simbu and Tippu doing the vocal honours. And the album ends on a grand note with Mano and Clinton going for the gut with o kadhale, which also sits on an emotional high note in the movie.

Kaadhal Virus has all the ingredients of a typical Kathir-A R Rahman soundtrack. A great mix of upbeat youthful tracks and soulful ballads"

  Every penny spent in buying albums like KV can better be donated to charity ( instead of donating to dying ARR )

  Who is this uthaman,JJ, musiclover,unmai...ST? I certainly have not found one posting of them... It is like shooting in the dark... i mean you idiots do not know what your target is..For everything you drag these names... but certainly i do not find them anywhere.. I think ARR fans are living in fantasy world where these characters are living.
  
  No prizes for guessing who said it! hehe..

  A.R rahman has made some good classic tunes and noisy songs like Bailamore, Kadal Virus. These 2 songs sounds like shit. Especially the french words from the girl is annoying. A.R rahman has been very dissapointing this year with Baba, Alli Arjuna and now Kadhal Virus. I hope A.R rahman comes up with better songs in BOYS (with dir. Shankar). Maybe A.R rahman should do the recordings in india instead bec the music is very bad from the foreign. I thinks most of the Rahmans fans would disagree but hey we all have different kind of taste.

  Dinesh,
  You are very correct on your advice to Razia.
  Experiencing a mental hospital is better than listening to KV.

  From NEW INDIAN EXPRESS
  
  Has you been smitten by Kaadhal Virus yet?
  
  Jarshad NK
  
  Kaadhal Virus Sony Music, Rs 45
  
  Say what you want about A R Rahman's music, but there is little doubt that he is one of the few innovative composers around. And it is this trait of the `Mozart of the East' that comes to the fore in Kathir's Kaadhal Virus.
  
  The album is a cocktail of different musical styles _ rock'n roll, trance, pop, carnatic... and more. All the songs are good and potential superhits. There are six songs, out of which three are likely to be more popular among the younger generation because of their fast tempo and racy beats.
  
  Vasundhra Das excels in the opening track Ye Ye Enna Aachu. In the beginning, her voice is smooth and very relaxed _ almost to the extent of being labelled sleepy _ but midway through it transforms and is full of energy. Also, the enthusiasm with which she delivers the number is infectious and makes the listener want to hum along with her. P Vijay's lyrics for the song are simple and refreshing. Moreover, unlike other lyricists, he doesn't unnecessarily use English words for a fast number. Another highlight of the song is the mixing.
  
  But it is not the best song of the cassette. That honour goes to Vaan Nila _ a song that is reminiscent of Elvis Presley's rock'n roll style. Though the tune is not an easy one, Sreenivas and Karthik have rendered the number with aplomb. Janarthanan on the saxophone is also impressive.
  
  On the flip side, T R Simbu _ son of T Rajender _ who will soon make his debut as a hero, has combined with Tippu for Baila More. This is a very progressive track with heavy beats. Also, there is a lady singing in French in the background for added affect. Wonder if Vaalee wrote the lyrics for her too.
  
  The other three songs are melodious and rendered by three of the best singers in the Tamil music scene today _ S P Balasubramainam, Mano and Unnikrishnan. The lyrics are also well written, especially in the song Sonnallum by Vaalee.
  
  Another good aspect about the album is that the lyrics have been printed on the cassette cover. This will gladden the hearts of many karaoke enthusiasts.
  
  This also the first time that Sony Music has bought the audio rights of a regional film

  I hate to admit this lah but Kathal Virus is the best album of 2002.
  I hope my IR fans will accept this fairly.
  
  IR is God of music but he sleepinglah, so ARR is ruling for a while.
  
  
• From: Anthony (@ 62.199.220.2) on: Wed Oct 30 06:30:39 EST 2002
  
  I am sorry if i hurted ARR fans. I didn't like Bailamore and vasundrathas rapsong. BUt the silents ballads sounds very good. I like rahmans music too but compared to Kadhalar Dhinam and Kadhal thesam these songs reminds to much of the songs from Parthaalae paravasam.

• From: WN (@ 64.216.219.149) on: Wed Oct 30 09:20:20 EST 2002
  
  Kadhal Virus music is very bad. I think ARR should score music like he scored for Roja. His music is very boring these days. It is time for him to retire.
