these are the setbacks we face when it comes to speaking abt IR - he doesnt even have a functioning website !

IR y his nature he won't worry about website etc..,

[appushiva]

Good Day to All,

Yes, is really a setback that IR doesnt have a continously functioning website. Let all come up with an idea and pass the preferred one to IR- Yahoo group and also we can explore the possibility of we can help to have one.

Remember the BBC radio women commented that the IR song is "out of the normal" and she will explore more about him, but how?

By the way i was in goosebumps yesteday in car when i hear the following kannada songs:

1. Hero Hero Hero,, Nana Nana Naana.. (exciting trumphet's)
2. Jeeva Hoovagetha ( S.Janaki and Dr.Rajkumar -- Music nearly kills me).
3. yaara shilpi kanda kanasu neenu..(Amazing Keyboard, drums and violen).

Regards

NEP new song

Kameshratnam, thanks for the link. Very nice. The clarinet (??) with the back ground music gives a old world charm + IR's classy guitar work and a very nice pallavi.

thanks,

Krishnan

NEP new song

thank you.. thats sounds so great, has a classic Raja sir's touch.

The tune thats comes after the initial trumpet blowing, sounds like ABBA theme on Gimme Gimme Gimme (A man after midnight). I am not saying Raja sir copied it.. just that single piece sound resemblences ABBA, thats all.

.. just that single piece sound resemblences ABBA, thats all.

Third person to feel the same way (after me & teja)

my kAdhu is still ok

[sakaLAKALAKAlaa Vallavar]

nobody seeing resemblence with Ballelakka(Sivaaji)?

[skr]

Yes it has the same starting tune of Ballelaka , but this is a bit slower ..
The resemblance cud be that both are based on the C Minor scale
