I can only guess since Balu didn't give his reasons. It definitely has to do with the melody, movement of the song (the flow), the orchestration and the sangatis in the song. Of course I can understand you being puzzled. All these are there in all the best Raja songs so why pick this up. I think we need to ask SPB that :)
எஸ் பி பி கொஞ்சம் உயர்வு நவிற்சி அணிக்காரர் :-)
அம்புட்டுத்தேன் :-)
yeah..... there are some amazing pahadies Indian cinema has given.
From Khaiyyam, MSV-TKR, Ravi to IR have given zillion compositions with amazing poetry in the voices of Rafi, TMS & female singers etc.. for good situations.
but
mounamaana neram... is indeed extra special for some of us, it is sung by S.P.B.
yeah... it is extra special because of you, my dear Lover boy!
Forever romantic voice of Indian cinema.
We love you, S.P.B.
....... I will give up singing"
Come on, Bala.
You don't mean that.
aahaa...
two celestial pahadies forever fresh from 60s in distinctly different mood.
Classy.
serenity of khaiyyam saab's bahaaro mera jeevan bhi sawaaro...Lata's pahadi.
the elongations and the laid back mood of the composition-
khaiyyam saab is contemporary always.
lag ja gale ke phir hasi raat..... soulful & sexy, slow & longing Madhan mohan dhun(ponmeni thazhuvaamal..)
We love pahadi dhun
vinatha.
Also the exchange between vocal and instruments in charanams..
The song is about two hesitant lovers sharing a moment of quiet loneliness
So the instrumental melody starts the proceedings and the words, verses sung by male and female join..
now male asks a question.. female doesnt answer it, the instrumental melody answers.. female answers it or asks the next question.
Their closeness is not absolute. there is a gap . It reflects the gap between the characters that is later revealed in the movie.. It requires a poetic mind to punctuate a song like that.. Well thought out and perfectly executed..
And the visuals for 'mounamAna nEram' - absolute, absolute treat!
The most enjoyable part is the post-bath scene where Jayapradha settles down in the living room to listen to audio!
Lovely take on the song Jai. I never though of it that till now but now it is so logical. From what I saw in the video SPB was enjoying the melody and orchestration more. So I think even he would appreciate this POV. :) The fact is that you think you have analyzed Raja's music from all angles and something new comes up :)
