1. Oy! Oy!
With a mellow start and a dominant percussion throughout, this title track is catchy though at times it feels that the vocals are subdued by the music. Siddharth’s zesty rendition tries to maskChandrabose’s middling lyrics but you still can’t overlook the deliberate usage of certain words for a trifling attempt at rhyming, like the way Chandrabose uses twenty to rhyme with empty and korike (bit) to go with dorike (got). If I were to guess the female singer (whose name isn’t mentioned) it would be Priya, whose voice can be heard in Seheri (the last song in this soundtrack).
2. Saradaaga
There could be two diametrically opposite opinions about this but I think using Sunidhi’s vocals adds a lot of freshness and pizzazz to this dreamy track where the hero, in lyricist Anantha Sriram’s words, talks about fulfilling heroine’s wishful thinking. Ever-dependable Karthik gives good company to Sunidhi Chauhan in this track and both the singers together make this number more likeable.
3. Waiting For You
This one’s a heartwarming number about a guy’s heart-wrenching wait for his girl. Yuvan showcases his brilliance in the stanzas by making them addictively melodious (especially the first stanza). After RP Patnaik, Yuvan uses KK effectively here to bring out the melancholy in this track rather beautifully. Vanamali’s words catch your attention. Sample this, vidhinaina velEyana ninu gelichEyana.
4. Anukoledenadu
Though Yuvan’s orchestration in this track is impressive and the track itself is good, more or less, it doesn’t have the same appeal the other tracks possess. It’s probably because Shreya Ghoshalsounds a tad strained in high pitches though overall she does justice to this song and/or lack of novelty in Vanamali’s lyrics.
5. Povodde Prema
A poignant and pensive number with scintillating orchestration. Yuvan, sounding a bit like Rahman, takes you by complete surprise with an earnest rendition. It is in this song that you get a taste of what Vanamali is truly capable of.
6. Seheri
With some neat lyrics by Surendra Krishna and Krishna Chaitanya and exceptionally catchy orchestration, this is one track that makes you fall for it hook, line and sinker in the very first listen. While Priya sounds good, it’s Toshi that imparts right amount of sassiness to this number. However, one glitch, either with his singing or the way lyrics were handed over to him, is that in the last stanza he sings manasuki tOchindi chEsEy as manasuki dOchindi chEsEy.
To cut a long story short, Yuvan’s music for Oy! is a rhythmic joy. Peppy tracks, haunting melodies and an insanely catchy number (Seheri) pretty much sum up Oy!’s soundtrack.
