Ayan Audio

Vizhi Moodi... is the pick of the album - extremely catchy tune and simple orchestration that doesn't drown out the lyrics. The best parts of the lyrics come right at the beginning(thaniyaai pesidum sandhosham thandhaai penne penne...) and the short mazhaikkiliye... segment and its humming- and later, whistling - are beautiful. Thoovum Poomazhai... has a familiar feel to it but is energetic and catchy nevertheless. The lines that occupy the interlude (neeyum neeyum...), a Harris specialty, add some zest to the song. PaLapaLakkira... starts off like one of Harris' usual folk songs but the fast(but not frenetic) beats make it different and appealing. The slower parts of the song sound a bit old-fashioned. Sayarora's childish voice is Honey Honey...'s main appeal but the song is rather ordinary. The lyrics are silly and the segments that finish off the 2 stanzas(like hello sugavasi...) are the only interesting portions of the song. Nenje Nenje... is a familiar duet instantly recognizable as a Harris number. It reminds us of a couple of numbers from Bheema but Harish Ragavendra and Mahathi make it work very well.

Barring a couple of missteps(Sathyam was one) Harris has been very consistent and reliable. He doesn't disappoint in Ayan and comes out with another winner.
