"Pitchai paathiram" uses Madhu Balakrishnan's vocals to the fullest extent, happy to have a person to fill up the Jesudas-void!An emotionally and spiritually soaring song!! "Amma un pillai" uses the "Maatha un kovilil" tune and is decently good with great orchestration, except that Sadhana's vocals sometimes become too much strained and sound awkward. All done, we have a honey sweet "Kannil parvai", though the orchestration seem to be missing the synch. But after repeated listenings, I feel that we have got a greatest melody of the year 2009(going to be a strong contender for other songs!!). "Oru katril", the male counterpart of "Kannil Paarvai" is equivalently good, an apt song for the composer. The album reaches its apex in "Om siva om"- spiritual geeks are sure to get goosebumps! Vijay Prakash(the male voice which rendered the evergreen "Poo vasam"- Anbe sivam) deserves a strong place in tamil-playbacks!!
Verdict : Maestro in his recent best.
