Happy Days!!!! :D

After a long long time, i am finally blogging over a simple thing as waiting for an upcoming movie called happy days..... I have been waiting crazily over the past few weeks for the audio release and it finally happened. The songs are really cool and Mickey has put up a gud work... I would encourage ppl into buying the audio than downloading it..... The trailer on tv is driving everyone crazy!!

I think the freshness in teh movie comes across much more strongly since the cast is all new n bubbly.... tamanna stands out abv the rest toh.... Its all about loving your College Life would be my tag line for this movie.... I found out from few of my frends that this desparation is not restricted to me alone but to them as well...... 21st is too far a date to approach so fast.... but its gonna be worth it.... heard tht the overseas thing is doin well.... and sekhar as made a smart move in producing it himself along with his brother..... I am a great fan of shekar kammula and have seen both his movie atleast some 5 to 6 times till now..... Well the trailer makes me nostalgic and drives me to watch it as soon as possible...the ideal trait of a trailer has been fulfilled by the editing team!!.... The songs are too gud but my fav remains on jil jil jigar and are rey.... naresh has done an excellent job in are rey..... its never weighing each of them against one another.... they are all gud in their own way.... have been following up every bit of the movie since its audio release..... My desktop background is teh happy days wallpaper at the beach.... the guys n girls standing along the boat and in their won worlds.... he he... teh guys hands are all tanned toh :D.... the only clever guy is teh guy who has worn a full hands t shirts and hence remains safe..... he he...have seen teh posters and there is some spark in each of them...guess its the liveliness and the frame that made it so very diff.... I liked the boy cut girl and her pair very much...somehow the lead pair is anyway gud to look at... but this pair looks spl to me..... The curly hair girls looks sweet in certain snaps.... her guy looks very tall and handsome.... the last pair is teh studious pair according to me... he he.... Looks like i can submit a thesis on this movie very soon....The audio has been a huge hit and here are teh singers and writers for those songs.... lifted from idle brain toh....

1. Arey Re Arey Re
This instantly likeable melody about the guy realizing that he is in love is not only worded nicely by Vanamali but is also sung wonderfully by Karthik.

2. Jil Jil Jinga
This animated number about the day to day life of a student could become an anthem among the youth thanks to new lyricist Venkatesh Patwari’s catchy lyrics that comprise of all quintessential keywords that the youth understand and relate to. Though it has a faint semblance to We will, we will, rock you, this one is impressive. Four local (Hyderabad based) singers – Krishna Chaitanya, Kranthi, Aditya Siddarth, Shashi Kiran – sing this one appreciably bringing out the joie de vivre of youth quite well. Mickey adds a slight rock flavor to this song.

3. Happy Days – Rock Version/Theme song
National Award winner Naresh Iyer (for Rubaroo in Rang De Basanthi) and Mickey J Meyer come together again (after a soulful O Chilakamma in Notebook) to give us a gem of a title song. This is a new sound to a Telugu Cinema song and it rocks. Well, it has a nice rock feel to it too. While Naresh is asked to sing the main lines, Mickey does all the humming and croons the words happy days.

If the above is the rock version, there’s a soft, melodious version of the title song named ‘Theme song’ sung by Harshika, Mickey and chorus. This makes for a very pleasant listening and is equally good as its rock counterpart.

4. Oh My Friend

An excellent number extolling the importance of a friend and friendship. Vanamali’s lyrics shine brighter than a star and Karthik, with his enthralling vocals, bowls you over proving that he has evolved into a seasoned artiste in a very short time. Mickey maintains a nice tempo throughout the song adding a slight upbeat orchestration in the second interlude. Overall, what a song! If slow songs are your cup of tea (or should I say coffee keeping in mind the caption of Shekar Kammula’s Anand?), then you just can’t afford to miss this one.

5. Ye Cheekati
This is the only ‘heard before’ kinda song in this album and that’s mainly due to the use of a common music loop that runs in the background. Though fast paced with nice beats thrown in, it doesn’t match up to the standards of other songs in this album. Vanamali’s lyrics are praiseworthy though. Ranjith and Sunitha Sarathy sing this one.

6. Yaakundedu
This is a shloka recited by Pranavi in a heavenly manner. This Keeravani find, has recently sung the popular Rubberu Gaajulu number in Yama Donga. Compare her rendition here with the aforementioned song and you wonder if we have another versatile singer in the making ala Chitra, Sunitha and Usha.

Mickey J Meyer and Vanamali, after a successful (musically speaking) Notebook, add yet another feather to their caps with Happy Days. Yes Veturi’s title song rocks too. If you’ve waited for a soundtrack that is devoid of nonsensical, out of place, unnecessary rap in the songs. If you’ve longed for an album that shuns crass mass songs/item songs and serves us fresh, lively and melodious numbers then look no further than Happy Days. Clearly, this one ranks very high among the very few good albums that have come out this year in Telugu. Looks like Shekar Kammula already has a winner in his hands.

That says it all...now just wait and watch for the release of teh movie....... 21ts it comes or may be 14th.... See or Die is my word for this movie.....

Signing off.....
