Go to this link. There are a lot of versions of this rhythm played on guitar. And all sound similar at places. When you listen to Rum Bum Bum slowly, you will realise that the initial guitar piece is a derivative of the tune and the mood of the song.
Original is by arthur smith rather than the shadows. Loads of versions of this instrumental. Listening from this IR's version sounds abit different.

Doley from Kadhalil Vizhunden
Misirlou which is a folk music, but famous due to a movie called Pulp Fiction
Doley is a 98% rip of Misirlou. Both are available at YouTube.
Hulkster,
Yes I do know that there are lot of cover version exists and thanks for the original pointer. Mostly its guitar version but whammer jammer is on harmonica. In case of Raaja's version its not just drums and guitar prelude similaritly even the pallavi, interludes, charanam notes are also exactly the same (listen to yakkitori boogie pallavi & rumbum 7 8 natkalachu, 1 o clock 2 o clock..) . Infact its clear case of inspiration, lifted and reworked for a whole track.
I kinda liked yakkitori version better a small band from JP and the man on the vocals is simply mindblowing! :thumbsup:
Hi Scale,
While the style of music is similar with some similarity in notes being there as well but i dont think you can call it copied by any stetch of imagination. The IR version prelude sounds different with some typical IR'ish music. This is a brilliantly reworked IRish sounding number but since this particular style of music with the guitar and drums is so unique there will be always similar notes and sound as well. Infact any song based on this style will be hard pressed to have completely different beats or sound since that is a signature sound for this. We can call IR's number a sort of indainized/tamilish reworking of that style of music. But this is no copy. Inspired by that sound to create something more local ,yes. If we call this copy then most of our western/pop based songs will be copy since most of them have beats which are similar to western numbers.
@scale
Yup. I understand that the initial piece is heavily inspired but the whole song is abit too far fetched. I thought you were only talking about the initial guitar piece. Its the same as Rahman's hello mr ethirkachi and yuvan's nenjodu kalanthidu, using a initial piece to form a song.

No way! Tell me one movie where there is a lead/any character as FIREMAN & all his men were dancing in troops,and khushboo in frock & drooling on trumpet. IInd portion as cowboy WTH? camera angles, set, costumes...Still I didnt mean to say it as a copy unless I find a congeneric dance number :). You mean to say the dance also Indianized/tamilish ? This is not annatha aaduraar Wow! biggle :cool2:
This is a very close one in terms of picturization Boogie Woogie same blue genre but a different version. We need to check if this song is used in any of the movies. The days are not very far!
