This web-log is my very egotistic perspective to everything that needs to be hard written down. My thoughts,inspirations, rants directs everything that shapes in here.
This blog has now become ‘touch screen phone’ optimized. So if you have an iPod Touch, Android or an iPhone, you are going to see a different and more finger (no not that finger, you have the comments for that) friendly site to browse through.
It can be toggled to the original normal browser look at the bottom of the page.
Technology enabled by a wordpress plugin called WPtouch.
My first post using my iPod touch. I find this would be the mode I would be blogging more often, simply because it would allow me to capture my thoughts as it comes(atleast I wish). So happy reading.
And I never thought I would say this – ‘ typing in an iPod touch is awesome ‘
A music review after a long long time. Final verdict here.
Adada Mazhaida – Rahul Nambiar, Saindhavi
Yuvan’s taken the generic folk template here and has tried to stay safe. I felt like I was listening to a less awesome reprise of ‘Dhavani Potta Deepavali’ from Sandai Kozhi . So much so that choosing Rahul Nambiar over Vijay Jesudas might have been for that exact reason.
En Kadhal Solla - Yuvan
While I found the arrangements for this song a little below par(almost amateurish) for Yuvan’s standards, the interludes totally made up for the song. Nothing else noteworthy in this song.
Poongatre Poongarte – Benny Dayal
Benny, has been singing in almost every movie now. But it has been mostly weak songs(relative to the other songs in the movie), the trend continues here. Everything in this song is plain. Even Yuvan’s generally strong interludes seems to gave gone for a nap in this song. A ‘single listen’ song.
Suthudhe Suthudhe - Karthik, Sunitha Sarathy
I am not sure if Karthik gets the cream of the soundtracks he sings by default or he makes it so by his singing. I am totally biased to his voice. The ‘ra-ra-ra-radhe’ bit is awesome. The pick of the soundtrack.
Thuli Thuli – Haricharan, Tanvi
The music in the beginning and the ‘sel-sel’ reminds of me some catchy earlier song(see waveform below). I am not sure if its an old english or a regional song. Otherwise its a wonderful track with excellent vocals from Haricharan. I am not even sure why Tanvi is credited here with some very very light background vocals.
Final Verdict
An average soundtrack from Yuvan, with only Suthudhe and Thulli standing out. I wish Yuvan would experiment more, it seems he is playing safe, staying in his groove. Yuvan’s got more potential, but this soundtrack is not exploring that.
After the initial(fun) part of setting up a wordpress site, installing the uber cool wordpress plugins, optimizing the site for Google-seo(search engine optimization), I have reached an impasse. I have no content. And thats what matters,after all – ” CONTENT IS KING”. I could have the coolest looking website in the world, but if all I have are drab posts(example), I might as well ‘not blog’.
Its not that I have no content, I do have a lot of things in mind that I want to write about, but the inspiration always goes missing. I am no new comer to blogging, as a matter of fact, I have always found it to be a daunting task but nevertheless a highly satisfying experience.
I understand these rambling have no consequence whatsoever. I was just hoping this post could be the kickstart to my blogging again.
