All:
Listened to all the songs in guru.Here is the review
1. Ay hairathey:
The pick of the album with an exquisite mixing of
dhamdhara,ghazalish singing of hariharan accompanied by the beautuful
voice of alka. This is a lilting melody. The violins,accordion and
rahmans "dhamdhara jashna" beyond the mind. gives a bhajan feel and
all swaying to its melody.
rating *****
2. Tere bina:
Excellent rendition by Rahman, beautiful lyrics, Chinmayis lilting
voice takes the user beyond.the alaap for nusret ali kahan is
fantastic. again takes u beyond the mind.
rating: *****
3. Jaage hain:
Starts of on "Lakshmi kalyanam viabogame " note. The violins, the
grandiose orchestraic feel with a lot of soul. both rahman and chitra
give the song a liling touch and the high pitch by rahman is beyond
the mind.This pretty much sums up the the theme of the movie.
rating: *****

gosal and great instrumentation from rahman. awesome !!
rating: *****
5. Maaya:
nice arabic beats, sensuous voice of maryam toller, a chilky beats
of rahman and the buddha bar lounge "flute" just adds to the
grandiose of this song.
