1. July Maadham Vandaal
2. Kannum Kannum
3. Enna Moham Kannamma.

Exemplary tunes with amazing energy levels. I would rate these songs for the power of these very taut tunes. Such a perfect melody with very few notes is the amazing capability of Rehman, he has got about 10-20 such songs. I am sure this is because of his extensive research into variety of melody, rhythms and sounds from all over the world, and the training in delivering crisp tunes for ads. I would say only about 50 songs of his 250 songs really are completely original, and of that the above 3 are just amazing.

1. Dil Se Re - Dil Se (Uyire)

Very meditative - as if ARR was in Nirvana when singing it

2. Thaniye (Land) - Rhythm

Amazing feeling and passion added with Shankar Mahadevan's voice - the first time I listened to it..my hairs stood on end and tears welled up in my eyes..it was not the lyrics....the tune itself and the way it was rendered - this will be an all time classic. Who are these people who say that ARR's music wont stand the test of time ?

3. Nahin Samne (Taal

Feeling and passion to the utmost heights...ARR must have lived the character's feelings when he composed this one.

A.R RAHMAN'S BEST SONGS
1) GENTLEMAN
2) MUDHALVAN
3) RHYTHM
From: RealDeal (@ 24.15.81.189) on: Sat Oct 13 12:38:41 EDT 2001

Choosing 3 top ARR songs is a tough proposition, since there are too many good songs which I feel would compete for a place in the list. My favourites in no particular order are.

1) Puthu Vellai Mazhai -- Every time I hear the song, I am carried away to a special place. The music is so soothing and inherently has the feel of a place that would resemble kashmir.One word description, "Mesmarizing"

2)Chandralekha -- I have never heard a tamil/himdi song before that sounded more western than this one. The songs high points are is the starting bit and the male chorus voices. One word description, "Enthralled"

3)Dil se re -- This is an amazing composition. Add to that the fact that ARR's voices sounds at its best in this piece. You can truly feel that ARR is one with this composition the way he sings it. One word description "piece de resistance"

Using more listening pleasure and highly distilled analytical abilities, i must review my rankings of top 3 ARR songs:
1. Netru Illadha Matram (fantastic. very light orchestra, superb melody and novelty with few notes)
2. Malargale, Malargale (superb melody
3. Strawberry Kanne (no pallavi charanam type stuff, again major breakthrough in recent times for Indian films)

and the earlier 1,2,3 fall to unknow spots currently but i assure u definitely within single digit identities. I am only now hearing many of ARR songs I have never heard.
From: rf (@ 172.165.144.72) on: Fri Oct 19 03:29:07 EDT 2001

Also, think Sevvanam Chinna Ponnu... is a fantastic number. I don't how ARR could do 4 variations on the same melody:
Kannum Kannum
July Madham
Enna Moham
Sevvaanam Chinna Ponnu, It will be wonderful to have more. I bet he has more lined up for the future...

rf,

Which movie is the 'Enna Moham' song from?
From: WN (@ ) on: Tue Jul 23 07:15:00 EDT 2002

Ok, dont stone me for waking a sleepin thread, but wit 10 years of ARR music drawing close, I thought of posting my 3 faves. It's tough of course, but here's my choice:
1. Melisaye (high sentimental value)
2. Anbe Anbe (nostalgia)
3. Puthu Vellai Mazhai (needless to say)
From: KASKS (@ 65.95.85.137) on: Tue Jul 23 11:47:16 EDT 2002

3. En kaadhaley - Duet

1. OO lalala - minsaara kanavu
2. En kaadhaley - Duet
I like this one because of SPB. He has rendered the song so well, especially the lines kaNgaLai nee moodikkoNdai naan 'kulungi kulungi' azhuthEn - lovely!
3. nEtru illaadha maatram ennathu - pudhiya mugam
From: thiru (@ 63.169.243.18) on: Thu Jul 25 11:07:49 EDT 2002

1. Naan paadum sandham - Duet
2. Chinna chinna aasai (small version)- Roja
3. Gurus of peace ( vandhe matharam)

Its difficult to grade these songs as 1,2,3... each song was my no.1 favourite at that point of time......
