Raavan - ARR's biggest Flop

Courtesy: WWW


Something doesn't look right here.


A 'Manirathnam' movie, fully loaded with stars, loaded with a lot of hype ...has the music out...which sucks big time !

Am I the only one ...come on Mr.Rahman what happened here.  

I've been listening to the songs of  'Raavan' the last few days.  Not sure how to rate the songs.  I would say  it's below 'Mediocre'..and I think even that is too much.


How did  Mr. Manirathnam approve these songs?  I thought he had a great taste for music.  All his movies so far have had  wonderful songs.


Let me stop here...and finish by saying this :  RAAVAN songs suck big time.  In my opinion, this is the worst album of ARR so far in his career.

really?

Behene De is catchy...
Thok De Killi is different...
Ranjha Ranjha is nice...
Khili Re is very melodious...
Beera Beera is likable...
& finally Kata Kata will swirl your soul out.

While Raavan songs are good, its not arr's best and not his worst.

Well, you have already disclosed that you aren't an arr fan. You needn't to appreciate good music. You sure have the option of not listening and staying far away from it, sir.

Abosultely my friend, that's what I am doing 'Staying away'.

Your thoughst on the songs sound nice ...very poetic ...I like it !

I am waiting for the Tamil album though to see how it is ( atleast the lyrics ).

i am hooked to behne de after seeing the lyrics and the meaning here -

very soulful rendition by karthik though the song reminds me of uyire song (ennuyire)

Probably not the worst album of ARR but the worst of ARR and Mani's combination.

As always, ARR's music takes time to catch on and I think that's what's happening here too.

Very truly said, AR Rahman's standard off late has declined considerably, and the one reason why most people say this music is great is because they are carried away by the hype of AR Rahman, and since he has an Oscar now, they point out to his Oscar to validate their point

the album is very good.To call it the worst of ARR's career is just to attract attention to ur blog.Cheap technique.

Comeon all you ARR fans...Please give me a break....all the songs suck big time...I am waiting for the Tamil Album to be released.

I have a feeling ARR is redoing his songs for Tamil release. I have faith on tamil audiences..this will be the biggest flop for ARR.
