Let us have some sanity and let us not add more 'pollaa vinai'into our account!

BTW, I am surprised to note that none of you have written anything about that beautiful song book which is a great tool in understanding this CD and which is hand-written by IIR!!

The booklet was great, apdiye andha verses meaningum include pannirundha rombo rombo nalla irukum. Now most of us are searching google to find the meaning of those verses. :)

15 months ago, i tried to do that[meaning for the verses] here in this forum which was ridiculed by some of friends on the pretext that i am trying to dodge the issue!

May be, i will start here for the benefit of our friends, if it is ok with you all!

By the way, i was told that the song book will contain the English transliteration and meaning also but it seems due to some unavoidable time constraints, it was not included.
Let me see if they can add it in the Premium package.
I will speak to TM tonite and will let you know.

In fact, i wanted to write about the US release function at dallas last wkend also, but due to time constraints, am unable to do so.
Will write soon. Or one of my friends will post it here.

YIA!!

"ரண்டக்க ரண்டக்க பாடும் குழந்தைகள் நமச்சிவாயம் வாழ்கவும் விரும்பிப் பாடுவார்கள்."

I literally cried when I read the above words!
Nam kanavu nanavaanadhu!
YIA!

I am in a dilemma!! I am so immersed in the Kothumbi song and its always in my mind..and the dilemma is that even when I see a super figure on the streets of London..I am playing the Kothumbi song in the back of mind and I am unable to stop!! :(..Gulity feeling :((

It would have been better if they give the translations for the songs in the CD!!

One more question: Is it not possible to create a symphony in India? From what I see, its 100 violinists playing in unison..cant we do that in India..Just a thought?

TISK, From my knowledge, I think it would be great, if someone could arrange with Ayngharan to distribute the CDs here in London..since buying CDs online would be a uphill task for some common tamil ppl here in London..

Writeups about this album in "The Hindu" does help in promoting the album in a big way, especially in Chennai.

Eagerly waiting for the official sale figures to appear in a magazine or a website

Friends....

Let us not try to promote piracy on this work which was not aimed commercially. I am equally tempted as you are, to go for piracy. But, if at any point you thought of giving an album a standing ovation with a stern NO to piracy, In my humble opinion - this is the album.

Stephen Scwartz's interpretations are beautiful.

Particularly - "To this man so blind and base, you granted a glimpse of grace and oh oh oh" is so emotionally overpowering. We need to post in his forum congratulating him.
