My review of music of GaaLipata :-)

Here goes my review of the GaaLipata Album, worth buying the album.

Disclaimer:Everything written below is based purely on my personal view and anything which confronts with the opinion of anyone of you, then my sincere appologies for the same. J

1. Minchaagi neenu baralu: (Lyric: Jayantha Kaykani, singer: Sonu Nigam)

This is again a song which perfectly suits Sonu’s voice, which is well verse in expressing the emotions and manifestation of the feelings in soothing manner. This is again an ideal song for Sonu. One of the beautiful lyrics written by Jayanth kaykani in recent times. Some lines are really touching like “Virahada bege sudalu, yedeyalli besige kala”, “Naa ninna kanasige chandhaDhaaranu, chandha baaki needalu bande baruvenu…” and “Naa nera hrudayada varadigaaranu, ninna nodidha kshanadali, maathe marevenu…” Ee reeTiya tharKakke nilukada Saahithya bareyuva Kaykaniyavarige full marks, innu coming to the composition of the tune of this song, as you listen it for the first time no wonder you would feel it somewhat same like “Anisutide” tune, may be Harikrishna couldn’t resist to blend the lyrics with the soothing “Anisutide” tune which was trend setter early 2007 and unknowingly he has composed by picking some strings from “Anisutide” tune… anyways, you can call it as an improved version of “Anisutide” tune. Vocal chorus used by Harikrishna as the song nearing to the climax has added much more richness to the song. And coming to the Kannada Uchharane of Sonu, he has given his 100% to sing his best and he has lot improved this time except one or two instances, but they are negligible, but all you can expect from non-kannadiga is not anything more than this. So 10/10 to Sonu. Overall I can give 4/5 for this song.

2. Nadhimdhim tana: (Lyric: Yograj Bhatt, singer: Chitra)

This is my personal favorite in this movie. Yograj Bhat has himself penned the lyrics for this number and he is at his best as a lyricist, who had also written lyrics for “Mungaru Maleye…” and I personally rate that lyric (Mungaru maleye…) as “One of my favorite filmi lyrics”. Coming to this song, Bhattaru (Yograj) ondu hudugiya preethiya bhavaanegaLannu, sundara saahithyada moolaka sundaravaagi thorsiddare andre taPpagalaradu… Chitra’s (“AmruthaVarshini” & “ChandraMukhi PraanaSaki” fame) classical voice is at her best in recent times. We should also be aware of the very fact that not every singer can sing this classical influenced kind of songs, which are difficult to sing. Super variations in the tempo and versatile expressions are all you can notice in Chitra’s tone. Chitra’s voice is a perfect match to this song as it needs classical touch into it and she deserves the credit for giving the needed touch. Modala sala neevu E haadannu kelidare, you will find that Harikrishna has some influence of “Jiya chale (dil se)” tunes and has given similar kind of tune. And the way he has used the instruments, vocal chorus and everything of his part of work needs an appreciation. Some lines are really catchy like “Thaakita tharakita yennutide E hRudaya mrudanGa, suNdara maaNasa saroVaradalli Prema taRanga” and “Premada sarigama Swara-Thaalada koLadalli, Haadutha theladutha, jwara herisuva maLeyalli” and few other lines.

My rating goes like 4.5/5.

3. Kavithe kavithe: (Lyric: Hrudayashiva, singer: Vijay Prakash)

Luckily I didn’t notice any influence of past tunes on Harikrishna while composing tune for this number… J Lyrics is again a contribution from HrudayaShiva and in his own typical style. When you listen to this song, Bhaavathireka Vyaktapadiso ondu mouna tumbida manada gEethe antha bhaavisuvudaralli yeRadu maaThilla… Very slow and sleep time song you can say and new singer (I think so, coz I have heard his name only very recently) Vijay Prakash has sung this song very well and am not such an expert to judge anyone’s voice, but as a common person I like his variations and emotion filled tone and I hope so as you all. Lets wish Vijay Prakash all the very best for his future. Few lines I found intresting are “Nannedeya goodalli kavitheGala santhe, oh Olave nee tanda haadige naa sOthe”, “AvaLu Baralu manadalli padagalade chilume” and “Mugila hegala meleri thelutide hRudaya, madila huduki yede baagilige banto pranaya”. So over all this is good song. We can give 4/5.

4. Aakasha Iste yakidio?? (Title track): (Lyric: Jayantha Kaykani, singer: Tippu, Kunal Ganjawala)

Jayanth Kaykaniyavaru barediruva E geetheya Saahithya ondu reethiyalli Young generation song which makes you to groove to the music when you listen to this number, which totally differs from the 3 songs which are listed above. Here Kaykani also proves that he can not only write those emotional lyrics but also the lyrics which suit the party number as well. Kunal Ganjawala and Tippu have sung the song in a tone to sync the music perfectly to make it a perfect dance number, may be this song may rule the stages of the school, college fests and other cultural events in the days later in the year. The catchy voice in this song is of Chaitra’s (“Huduga Huduga” fame), though she has not spelt out any lyric in this song, “Nannai nana nai” from her tone in the beginning of the song and also in between the lines is just awesome and extract all the attention and made the song more colorful. Nothing to tell about the lyrics, here its all about the music in this song more than lyrics, but “YES” lyrics is equally good.

May be we can give 3.75/5.

5. Ondesamane Nittusiru: (Lyric: Yograj Bhatt, singer: Sonu Nigam)

This song is a sad version of “Minchaagi Neenu Baralu” but this time the lyric contribution from Yograj Bhattru. The lyric is much evident to prove the “Saahithya Shrimanthike” of Yograj bhat. E haadina keluvu saalugaluanthu, kandithavaaGalu nimma prashamse ge paathra aaguvudaralli sandehavilla…Every word of the lyric will take you to the emotion filled world and Sonu’s voice has made the song more appealing to the emotional persons and Kudos to Yograj for writing such a good lyrics. Each line is very nicely written and especially the line which goes like this à“Thumbi thuLuko kangaLali, karaguthide kanasina baNNa” is really touching and also “Honganasina chaadaralli mullina haasigayali malagi,yatanege mugulnage baralu, kanna hani summane hoNagi, avaLannu japisuvude olave?” is also very touching. Coming to Sonu’s Kannada uccharane, here in some places you can see him missing the “hottakSharaGaLu” and some “Kaagunitha” mistakes otherwise its ok. Music bagge yenu heluvudilla yakendre this has the same music as that of “Minchaagi neenu baralu” with little slow pace.

4/5 is what we can give.

6. Aaha bidiru Bombe: (Lyric: Jayantha Kaykani, singers:Udit Narayan,Anuradha Sriram)

This song is sung by Udit Narayan and Anuradha Sriram, lyrics by Jayantha Kaykani. When you have heard the name of Udit narayan, you would have thought that this song is kind of “Jhink chak” type of song antha, Jthat means a song which is full of maja and masti in it… “Nenanipa jaathreyali haledu naa, kanasina kannadiya kollale” is just the glimpse of the lyrics which you can notice which is sung in a masti way and remaining part of the song also goes in the same manner. Tune for this is song is also sounds good when heard along with the lyrics. May be you can call it as a dance number as well. Time pass song in short for now and may be it has got some added value to the story in the movie for sure.

Rating goes like 3.5/5 for this song.

So over all around ~4/5 is what I can personally rate this album.
