The night is still pregnant with the floral fragrance of the rain drops and the adolescents’ infatuation threatens to tear away the thin veil of innocence. The Guitar God who only knows all these too well decides to rescue from the embarrassing predicament. He doles out few pearls from his sacred guitar and thus waving his magic wand, the queen of seductress and a new kid on the block start "poovaadai kaatru vandhu aadai theendume" . Now its the same night rife with flashing neon bulbs from the disc and the prince of keys belting out "No Money No Honey da" for the know-all
thumburu,
Beautiful poem for one of Maestro's lilting duet. Amazingly written!
I already read this around 20 times.
Listening to "Magudi" album...randomly came upon it...seems the best way to find gems...the unexpected treat is always so much more sweeter
"Neelakuyilae" is the gem of the album IMO..it sounds similar to another song...sad how I come upon this realization but never the song it sounds similar too...
The staccato part in the first interlude is unexpected since the rest of the bgm flows without interruption...
The second interlude is a violin lover's paradise...
Thinamum Kalyanam...with the song opening after the bitter drenched words spoken it was a little odd to hear such a lilting birdsong music follow before again the words are resung...as if to emphasize the innocence lost with the contrast of the music and the frustration of the character's plight...
first interlude belongs to the flute...a soothing element to the otherwise apathetic situation...the shivering synth chimes that follow again lead us back to the melancholic theme with the flute replying sorrowfully..
En Machan - a frolicking folk song with MV and ?? doesn't say...
Karatoram Moongil Kaadu - such charm...like glimpsing into a small instance of purely improvised singing rather than a skillfully composed song
it starts with the calling flute asking you to follow it until you hear the Maestro's soft voice...
I like the humming that follows certain lines:
kaattach chuththi vandu parakkudhu-ehe-ehe-ehe-ehe...
nee-ee-ee-ee-ee...thottha pudikum with the bell accentuating his words in the background
the sounds of cattle and wooden drum sounds following
seemayilae saedhi sonnaa
inga vandhu paesudhillae
even with the uyyaaraa uyyaaraa uyyaaraa uyyaa
...he starts it before it goes into a female chorus
the next part is my fave with IR speaking to a crying baby...
summaa aen ma pottu kuzhandhaya pottu
adichittrukkae paavam adhu paar azhuvudhu (spoken to a lady who has just scolded her baby)
nee azhaadha da kannaavaa daa (to the crying enfant)
(spoken in sing-song fashion...so sweet)
annan adichchaa akkaa irukkaa
azhuvaadhae....
akkaa adichchaa aththai irukkaa
azhuvaadhae....
aththai adichchaa ammaa irukkaa
azhuvaadhae...
andha ammaavae adichipputtaannu
azhuvuriyaa kannaa kavalappadaadha raa (spoken again)
en paattu irukku azhuvaadhae
adhu kaettu urangu pozhudhodae...leads back into the song, and infant's crying stops too cute..

Introduced to this song by fellow hubber 'eagle' on twitter (Nowadays he doesn't turn up here), slowly this has become one of my favorites. Thiraipaadal only has Raja version. The Swarnalatha version is nice as well.

wow what a coincidence..
months ago .. San_k (is it sanjeevi?) introduced me to this song (Sivaji - Prabhu - Ramayan - Deepika movie).
Fell in love with this song - pure emotional bliss.
Two nights back used this tune to put my new born to sleep (only for 40 mins though).. the tune is sheer emotional magic that Raaja alone can pluck out of his hat.. (phrases like Raja only possible are too short to attribute to a genius like him). will stay with me forever..
Apparently, a democracy is a place where numerous elections are held at great cost without issues and with interchangeable candidates.
