Music Review - Orange

The genius combination of Harris Jayaraj and Vanamali! Lyrics and music are of high-quality.

Ola Olaala Ala
Karunya’s awesome voice suited this song perfectly. He even sang with English lyrics with good accent. Surendra Krishna and Kedarnath Parimi did a great job with the lyrics. However, they should have had some words in the first “rap”, rather than gibberish. Music is too good with the perfect drum beats.

Chilipiga
Song has an awesome start with the guitar. Lyrics are too good. However, the song is way too long for a slow song. Although it is a decent song, one might get “never-ending” feeling when listening to the song, if they are not completely immersed into the song: the beautiful lyrics by Vanamali and the mesmerizing voice of Karthik. The song wouldn’t have been too bad if it ended at 3:58, at the brief pause.

Nenu Nuvvantu
This song might seem like a slow song, but it will grow on to you. Naresh Iyer’s and Nadeesh’s voices in duet are too good in sync. Adding a female voice towards the end is tasteful to the ears.

Hello Rammante
This is the best song in the album. The peppy beats are too entertaining. The lyrics are mind-blowing, especially for the third verse: “Idi manasuki mathrame thelise feeling kavalnte chaduvuko manasutho / Ganga lanti na prema idi jeevandi darling chethulara gundenu nimpuko”. These lyrics are written by Rama Jhogaya Sastry who wrote awesome lyrics recently to songs like Chari in Adhurs, Vachadura and Oopirage in Brindavanam. Vijay Prakash and Devan did an awesome job singing this exciting song.

O Range
It’s amazing how they split the word “orange” into “o range”. This is good, fast beat song suitable for pub settings. Lyrics are good with singer explaining the high-range in his love. Benny Dayal did a good job singing it.

Rooba Rooba
“Rooba!”; well that’s a new name. This song has decent beats. Lyrics are exclusive for praising Rooba. Shail Had and Chinmayee did a good job with the song. The singing is alternated throughout between singing under the music and singing over the music. This is a bit irritating for those that favor lyrics over music.
