Happy New Year – Yogi B


One of the most hyped songs of the album due to the leak of information about Yogi B’s presence in the song (Yogi B sang the recent hit song “Engeyum Eppodhum” in Pollathavan). Yogi B is known for his Tamil rap style songs and he continues in the same vein with some rocking local Tamil lyrics. Sunidhi Chauhan also makes an excellent start to the song and adds a lot of energy to the song (Sunidhi’s Tamil pronunciation is awesome despite being a North Indian popular singer; she also sang ‘Sha La La’ in Ghilli). Once again, the lyrics stand out in powerful measure. Check out some of these lines“Singakutty sutha thanga katty, solla pona avan Ilayathalapathy”“Vaikaasi vedi vedicha Sivakaasi Thirupachi….”The pace of the song almost follows the lines of “Kokkara Kokkarako” but you can barely get this resemblance unless you are a hardcore audiophile (who looks for the minutest of details in a song!). The song has a rocking and speedy end that aptly sums up the mood of the fans while watching this songUp: Sunidhi Chauhan’s rendition, Yogi B’s youthful energyDown: Not for the too old people… Heavily youth oriented Vijay Fan Rating: 9.5/10 | Neutral Fan’s Rating: 6/10
