Man, this guy ARR is awesome! Love you Rahman. He definitely is a magician coz I just cant pull out the earphones out of my ears for the past 3 hours ['tis 2:13 am now!!!]. First time in my life, I tend to prefer listening to the songs whole night than sleep.
He has this habit of surprising you everytime when he comes out with a new album. This one, Vinnai Thaandi Varuvaayaa, I can say is the most experimental album in Tamil till date.
How on earth could he even think about songs like Aaromale, Anbil Avan, Kannukkul Kannai, Hosanna... Each stand apart and get better than others on every hearing. Also, not to forget Omana Penne & Mannippaya. The way he mixes the sounds and uses the singers is awesome.
At the same time, the down side would be the comparison against this album with Gautham Menon's previous, 'Vaaranam Aayiram'. I should admit this might not go well with the masses like how 'Mun Dinam' or 'Adiye Kolluthe' or 'Anjala' did. But still, this is the most haunting music I ever listened to. I mean, Vaaranam Aayiram songs were mind blowing but then it wasn't anything experimental.
To experiment something and still make audience like it is a great job, in which ARR is a master at. I can say for sure that ARR has raised Tamil Music to the next level with this album.
ARR has begun 2010 with a bang.
Hail A.R.Rahman!!!

PS: If you think this post is very much biased, yes it is coz I love ARR's works and I can proudly say VTV is worth this post.
