Song of the Open Road (Latest song heard - Part 10)

[Sunil_M88]

After much calculation, I have to confess that my favourite Thamizh album by Rahman Ji is Taj Mahal. If I was Mumtaz, I would've preferred Shah Jahan gifting me a CD of this rather than standing up a mausoleum.

Song: Dhoorathil Unnakaanum
Movie: Veyilody Vilayadu
Singer: Yuvan Shankaraja, sathyan, M.M Monisha
Music: Karthik Raja

+: I remember the first time when i heard Manickam songs , was quite impressed by Karthik Raja. All songs were different and outstanding, (of course Ilayaraja helped him with orchestration i read). Since his early years Karthik Raja comes out with listenable songs with good orchestration now and then.

-: Honestly many male singers would have the sung song more perfect like Karthik, Krish, Benny Dayal, Rahul Nambiar... why Yuvan Shankaraja?

kokku saiva kokku is fun, the whole idea of that song, bringing in a kelavi to sing abt stuff, and the voice for that kelavi.. pure fun... oruvan oruvan is grand, getthu... thillana was my least liked song from the album.. main reason being sun tv repeated telecasts... and vidukadhayaa class...

[Sunil_M88]

As a UK born and bred Punjabi and more importantly a Rahman Ji devotee, I’m loving Nimma Nimma and I’m not being biased at all :D

Rahman Ji, the saviour of the music scene here appears in his Bhangra Puyal avatar that was last heard in Katiya Karun.

WRT his early days, Rahman Ji used to make music for himself and this was vital as it projected his sound but now he makes music with utmost connection to the project e.g. Senmozhi, Sadda Haq, Dotted line and now Nimma Nimma. If you don’t call this sinking into character then I don’t know what you call it.
Now to represent Indian culture via Bhangra in the Olympics might seem absurd to some people, but IMHO Rahman Ji has worked very behind this project and the research done shines through in the form of Nimma Nimma.

The largest subgroup of British Indians are those of Punjabi origin (representing approximately two thirds of direct migrants from South Asia to the UK), combined with Pakistani Punjabis they number over 2 million in the UK and are the largest Punjabi community outside of South Asia. The Punjabi is currently the second most spoken language in the UK.

Bhangra itself was developed in the UK during the 1980s and there is an extremely large number of Bhangra artists that cement the UK as the stronghold of traditional Indian music outside of India via the means of Punjabi Music.

Some of the pioneering Bhangra artists who built a strong foothold include Chaani Singh and his band Alaap, Heera, The Sahotas and Malkit Singh. The sound this lot put forth was of live bands blending local Rock and Pop with traditional folk and raga based compositions.

Nimma Nimma clearly reflects the history of Indian music in the UK and not only that, Bhangra itself has become a global ambassador of Indian music.
So to shun Rahman Ji and say he is losing his charm is pure nonsense. This composition certainly drowned me in nostalgia and reminded me of my family gatherings at parties and other events.

I don’t know who the singer is. I wouldn’t call this an uncanny imitation of the artists mentioned above and though the verses are clichéd the chorus is really catchy and for Rahman Ji it’s a first of a kind. Be it the trumpet in the prelude, the backing vocals, the keyboard orchestration, etc. The complete package of this will be cherished in days to come.

But to be completely honest with respect to Rahman Ji, this time round and probably being the first time I’ve felt more emotionally inclined rather than musically. But it fits in well with the theme and its portrayal in the Olympic opening ceremony had me stunned as it was mixed with Rap artist Dizzee Rascal’s Bonkers. Wow, what a combo... First M.I.A, then Dido and now Dizzee.V

There will never be another Rahman Ji. :bow:

sunil... i think i heard only some 30 seconds of that bhangra song... and it was foot tapping when compared to the songs which were played before that... are u talking abt those 30 seconds or did i miss something...???

[Sunil_M88]

Yes it was only 30 seconds, but in my post I was talking about the longer version which was posted on SoundCloud.

[SoftSword]

oh ok... but u know wat i feel... its sounds so unlike arr... that stamp, which i cant say what, is missing...
in short, any average md can make this track...

[Mahen]

agree with softie...the song sounds bland..

[MADDY]

thanks to softie and Mahen - lowered my expectations - i liked the song.....as sunil put it - its a nice authentic bhangra with no synth, techno stuff......

oh ok... but u know wat i feel... its sounds so unlike arr... that stamp, which i cant say what, is missing...
in short, any average md can make this track...

I know how you feel, but this has been discussed various times and the main reason behind this is a result of newbies mastering the Rahman Ji sound with great effect. Remember, I listed out songs by other composers which contain the Rahman Ji stamp.

Nimma Nimma – It might be a cultural difference, hence has a lack of appeal.

He needs not to deliver his stamp now, he is sticking to the norms of musical genre conventions and this has been evident primarily in

Hello Mister
Humrahi Jab Ho Mastana
Chhodo More Baiyyan
Baila More
Spiderman
Kumbakonam
Jillendru Oru Kaadhal
Osaka Muraiya
Rubaroo
Maiya Yashoda

(There is no similar pattern in these songs, no vintage Rahman Ji stamp yet still are great songs)

...to name a few and whilst other MDs are trying to deliver the Rahman Ji sound a.k.a hybridisation of many musical genres, he himself is avoiding this trait and concentrating on expanding his versatility. So please accept with open arms... Just a humble request.

[Sunil_M88]

Here it is! Yes GVP has officially landed in Bollywood.

For me this is one of the most eagerly awaited albums of the year since it was last year when I became hooked to GVP compositions, even this year I still say he has produced the most whopping song Mansellam Mazhaiye and his Telugu album is still heard once a week.

Expectations are sky rocket and enough of the hype build-up! Here’s my exclusive review.

1. Kafirana – Sunidhi Chauhan and Adarsh Shinde

Kick starting the album is a Lavani song. Lavani numbers have been raining this year, firstly Chikni Chameli, then Mala Jaude and now this. The Bollywood stereotypical family orientated Bhangra songs have taken a backseat this year. A high octane number and with Sunidhi Chauhan in charge, this item number is here to stay. For his first Hindi album and more importantly first Hindi track, GVP gets the right sound with an expansive drums section in the prelude thus proving he is second to none. Adarsh Shinde aptly supports with Marathi lines.

2. Jugnu – Udit Narayan

Udit Ji makes a pleasant come back. Sweet lyrics as well as melody. This song has GVP written all over it. The orchestration of the Western Classical portion in the postlude is simply flawless. My favourite song.

3. Sing Raja – Daler Mehndi and Sonu Kakkar

One can instantly tell that this song belongs to Akshay Kumar without looking at the cast and crew. The signature folk flute, tumbi merging with electronic hip hop beats are a bit cliched and here it’s the lyrics by Shirish Kunder which leave more of an impact. Nevertheless, I still sense this song to set the dance floor ablaze.

4. Yeh Joker – Sonu Nigam and Shweta Pandit

Continuing from Kafirana, this one is also exploring the carnival arrangements. The group humming in the both interludes gave me the Goosebumps.

5. Tears Of A Joker – Instrumental

Starts of a like lullaby and this is further supported by the flute which has a vivid GVP stamp in its melody. A sound that has been delivered many times in GVPs South Indian songs. I’m glad he has brought this sound in Joker. From a lullaby sound this piece takes a change of route and finishes its journey with Indian Classical.

6. Alien Arrival – Instrumental

The carnival sound is once again delivered and the prelude sounds very Mexican. The rest of the piece is very militarily orchestrated on a large scale. This piece tempts me to watch the film.

I can say GVP certainly has developed his own style and even though he started his career with shades of Rahman Ji, he is now purely standing on his own two feet. Joker is the start of many Bollywood projects to come for him, wishing him all the best on this journey. This album is in line with Farah Khan’s previous projects and it will certainly cater for Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha fans.

Happy listening,

Sunil Malhotra

Remember the music that comes when VAM is hit on the head and falls to the ground.
How would it have been done?

Unlike post shooting BGM, they would have recorded the song earlier.
Did they plan the video so meticulously ahead in the composing itself.
Or did that piece get added later? Would they have slightly edited the soundtrack itself...extending that portion so the song flows and they have time for this?

But you can see the blare of the trumpets kinda matches with the mood of VAM's march with the uruttukattai. Surely that had to have been composed before shooting.

How ya?

[kid-glove]

Song is always composed before shooting no?

[P_R]

Song is always composed before shooting no?
Hence the question.

[kid-glove]

For sure there would have been a 'situation' proposed for the tone of the song, IR would have given the songs. The long interludes helped them make up gags during shooting. Not all is planned and written on the page.

[P_R]

Yeah. That moment was too precise.

[SoftSword]

normally they add extra sounds to a video while doing RR no? we have seen many songs which sound different in the movie than the original audio... correct me if i am wrong.

Audio is released first. And I remember hearing all these sounds in the ones on cassette. So it's not RR, no?

[app_engine]

normally they add extra sounds to a video while doing RR no? we have seen many songs which sound different in the movie than the original audio... correct me if i am wrong.

This is applicable to many other songs but not this MMKR one. That's the reason for amazement I think!

(for e.g., I could see that ~75% of the KJY songs of 70's had these extra stuff in the on-screen versions - sometimes even a whole stanza and not just prelude / interlude changes...having a seruppadi converted into a marakkattai adi with such "savuri mudi" is a no-brainer. OTOH, to precisely do it against the recorded song is amazing!).

[app_engine]

additional-aka-savuri-mudi example :

vizhiyE kadhai ezhudhu, kaNNeeril ezhudhAdhE (this happens first with ordinary clothes, Latha crying and MGR consoling). Almost same as in the radio / disk version, without the brief veeNai prelude.

Then there's an extra BGM for changeover into a kanavu scene...rAjA rANi costume / set etc happens during this music.

Then that "droooing" veeNai (or may be piano) sound and the vizhiyE song restarts (or may be starting straight as 'manjaL vAnam thenRal sAtchi').

Similar thing in the prelude portion of 'andha mAnaippArungaL azhagu'.

'kaNNan oru kaikkuzhandhai' has an extra saraNam. (pAvam that Rani Chandra...she does 'dhrishtippottu' to Sivakumar on that video...but herself got killed in an aircrash before they finished filming the movie)

How ya?song situations are described for important songs, prior to even writing the lyrics.
sometimes the songs itself would have a storyboard before they proceed to the shooting of the songs.
the storyboard is then used for the creation of the song.

storyboards are always used for producing precise material such as corporate videos.


this is an eg of a storyboard for a particular scene:

or its plain good choreography - matching steps and slapstick comedy to the music composed......is choreography written along with script - no....its always improvised on the set according to situation.......or its extension of the song because the sound when VAM falls and bheem boy bheem boy chants stick out like sore thumb when janaki starts off kadhal mannana para..........

My morning alarm, courtesy of A.R. Rahman and Illaiyaraaja...

Prior to the release of the Airtel theme tune, my morning alarm had been a random repeated irritating beep noise. Ever since the release of the Airtel tune (one the factors in converting me to a Rahmaniac), I have been using many melodious Rahman Ji pieces i.e. Jashn-E-Bahaara (Instrumental), cellos of Tu Muskura, prelude of Kadhal Annukkal, etc. My current alarm is Tango For Taj.

I feel an alarm should be exquisite that before you even sleep should excite you and look forward to waking up and after experimenting with numerous effects both musically and with sound shaping and enhancing, I feel it was the right time to create and alarm that would bring a smile to my face when I wake up as all my previous Rahman Ji alarms.

I’m still an amateur and with whatever little software I have, I’ve decided to concentrate less on beats and more on melody as that’s where longevity lies.
The postlude of Achadicha Kaasa from Valmiki continues to take my breath away. The simple flute backed by those exuberant layers of Rhodes and harps always gives me the chills. My mind goes blank whenever I reach that part of the song.

At the end of the day, we all connect to music via emotion and if there’s no emotion then music is not music. There have been many pieces that completely abandon me to write anything technical and instead make me express with flourishing emotive adjectives.

The postlude of Achadicha Kaasa is composed on 3 beats per bar and I initially experimented until I clocked how to play the mainstay melody of this. I then arranged the notes backwards and started composing my piece with alterations.

As much as it wasn’t required, I inserted an 808 Kick, HiHat and Snare just to give it some slight oomph.

I can’t express enough gratitude to these legends, veterans and more importantly teachers.

Thanks Rahman Ji for inspiring me to come up with an idea such as composing an alarm piece and that too being melodic.

Thanks Raaja Saab for further igniting the emotive desire, resulting me in using your respected piece as a template.

One last ego burst – when I hear certain tunes I don’t think I will ever decipher their notes, but sometimes a divine interventions pops up while I’m experimenting. This is what helped me while figuring out the notes of the postlude.

The piece is called Alarm and there is a free download link.

Ps. Don’t be put off by the name... I’m just trying to change the notion that an alarm is not only repeated horrendous siren but can be a sweet and soulful reminder.

It could be both ways! Kamal munnaadiye sollirukkalaam. Sollaama irunthirukkavum chance irukku! Becos, that dish, dish-dish sound comes in the end of both interludes. And in the 1st interlude, though there is no direct matching like 2nd interlude, the tied-down madhan opens his eyes which kinda matches the feel! Not only that, listen to the 2nd interlude, after VAM gets beaten, that comedy sound comes as he is falling, even there too, the 2nd instance of the dish, dish-dish is heard.

There is a complicated 3rd option too. Kamal, solli, athe samayam musical aavum irukkattumnu both interludes kkume pottu, then, kamal wud hav thought why to waste the 1st interlude and does a scene for that too.

[Sunil_M88]

My take on Maattrraan’s soundtrack.

Naan Thamizh Puriyala, so won’t be talking about lyrics and the analysis is only based from a musical perspective.

Let me clear the dust on the Harris bashing – One can be sure that the HJ’s songs will have familiarity to his previous material whilst also containing shades of other composers, and nevertheless some of us still always have great anticipation for forthcoming HJ soundtracks, it’s almost as if we have acquired the taste for this sense of familiarity in his music which has become not only HJ’s but also our second nature.

Harris bashers really make me LMAO for e.g. the extremist haters (who claim to staunch Rahman Ji fans more like FAKE fans) will hear a Harris song which coincidently has triangle bell which has been in countless other songs and will take this as a chance to pour their venom. Absolutely disgusts me!

I will start with stating obvious i.e. the songs that I feel have inspired HJ to come up with songs in Maattrraan.

I read a quote but forgot who it’s by – “If you don’t get inspired, then you’re god.”

I know others will see hypocrisy in this post, but let me clarify I’m not saying these songs are COPIED!

Rettai Kathirae

Overall is an out and out HJ song, yes there are shades of Endrendrum Punnagai but this genre is bound to have rap. When Endrendrum Punnagai released, no one accused it of copying blah blah artist because it was one of Rahman Ji’s first ever attempt to compose a conventional Hip hop number hence the narrow minded listeners feel the need to have poke at Harris just because he’s trying to be versatile. In my opinion Harris has tuned far more Hip hop numbers than Rahman Ji, but the real Pioneer is Yuvan.

Naani Koni

The second interlude certainly has shades of Kadhal Anukkal’s second interlude, but that’s as far this song goes in terms of inspiration and that too because of the female chanting and the ambience.

Theeyae Theeyae

This track has the most obvious shades of inspiration i.e. Girlfriend (Boys) and Chikku Bukku Rayile (Gentleman) both by Rahman Ji.

Yaaro Yaaro

Many songs in this genre so can’t pin point a particular number. Although the initial humming reminded of Tu Bole (Jaane Tu Jaane Naa)

Kaal Mulaitha Poovae

Couldn’t help but notice the melodic shift in the Pallavis similar to that of Nazrein Mili Dil Dhadka aka Raja (1995) title track.

Now that I’ve vented out, I can express the plus points of this album.

When I heard the album initially, I deciphered all the sources of inspiration and then continued to hear the album repeatedly before making any judgments. The more I heard the songs the more unique they became.

I am now completely immersed in this album, although I have more of a tendency towards Theeyae Theeyae. The piano in the Charanams is mind blowing and not to forget Charulatha (famous for her analysis of raagams on isai payanam). Last but not least, Aalaap Raju, who just like Bombay Jayashree is excelling his rapport with Harris.

Last week I was thinking to myself that Shreya mam hasn’t sang many Thamizh songs for HJ so to hear her (her first song with Harris being Andakaka Kaaka), Javed Ali (sang for the first time for Harris in Nanban) and Mahalakshmi (Who can forget the charming, Poove Vai Pesum?) was a completely gift for me! Javed ali has certainly been put to the test for his vocal acrobatics, firstly been Rahman Ji in Tu Muskuran, then by S. Thaman in Kalangal and now by HJ.

Be it, the violin interlude of Rettai Kathirae, the chorus of Naani Koni, the first interlude of Theeyae Theeyae, the ethnic percussion arrangement of Yaaro Yaaro or the charanams of Kaal Mulaitha Poovae, every track does leave somewhat a stellar impact.

A very competent effort from Isai Minnale, Harris Jayaraj!

Happy listening,

Sunil Malhotra

That opening chorus is heavenly. Their pallavi backing alone could be another melody. Even if the song had stopped after that, I would have been satisfied.

Avial (mallu rock band from kEralam) - awesomely talented bunch!
Motherjane, another (English) rock band from Kerala became quite popular about 10 years back and this kickstarted a mini revolution in the state resulting in the formation of many new rock bands there. Avial is one such, but these guys have created a niche of sorts for themselves through incorporating mallu lyrics and folk music. Bassist, drummer and their erstwhile vocalist (the plump dude) ellaam pinni pedal eduthufying talents. Really catchy songs while being musically interesting too. I also read they were appreciated by ARR for their composition style. The idea for aarOmalE probably germinated here.

Congrats Rahmanji :clap:

My first ever Rahman song was pudhu veLLai mazhai. TDK 90 cassette with songs from Nadodi theNRal / aathmaa / vaNNa vaNNa pookkaL / Roja (not 100% sure on the films). Pudhu veLLai mazhai prelude - piano punches with the bass guitar(?) backing wow! And the sound sound quality was mindboggling.

Anyway favorite Rahman soundtracks if I had to pick just one:
Tamil - Thiruda Thiruda
Hindi - Rangeela
English - 127 Hours.

[Sunil_M88]

Thought I’d set myself with another task of picking my favourite song according to musical genre, collaboration, theater score, etc.

Just as Nerd listed his pick from every language, I’ll share mine:

Thamizh – Taj Mahal
Hindi – Rockstar
English – 127 Hours
Favourite original Thamizh song – Mel Isaiyae
Favourite original Hindi song - Kun Faya Kun
Favourite original English song – Alive

The rest of the task is like shooting yourself in the head but to show my appreciation for these 20 years, I’m going to ahead with no holds barred.

Solo Song by Rahman Ji - Aararai Kodi
Male Duet - Urvasi Urvasi
Duet - Athiradee Karan

Conventional music genres

Blues – Aaromele
Bhangra – Thaniye (Nachle)
Classical (Western) – Tum Ho meri Nigaho Mein Chayee (Kabhi Na Kabhi)
Classical (South Indian) – Marghazhi Thingal Allava
Classical (North Indian) – Hai Rama (Rangeela)
Dance – Muqabala
Disco - Maramkothiye
Electronic – Dating
Folk – Balleileka
Hip hop – Collumbus
Gospel - Anbendra
Instrumental – Bombay Theme
Jazz – I've Been Waiting
Latin – Zindgai Hai Dua
Middle-Eastern – Afghanistan Theme
Patriotic – Thamizha Thamizha
Pop – No Problem
Reggae – Satyameva Jayate
Religious – Kun Faya Kun
Rock – Mustafa
Traditional - Dandiya Aatamum

It’s definite difficult to decide what genre is being displayed sometimes...

No Synth – Naan Varuvane
Non – Music (Accapella/ Minimal music) – Rasathi
Experimental - Sabaq Aisa
Fusion – Anbil Avan
Best Collaboration – Gurus Of Peace with Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
Non – Filmy Single – Tyota Etios
Non – Filmy Album - Connections
Advert – Door Darshan
Featured As A Guest On Another Artist’s Album – Cairo To India (Rock The Tabla)
Best Shot Song – Barso Re
Best Theater Song – How Many Stars (Bombay Dreams)

Need to take a breather now, hopefully don’t need to expand on this and I think I’ve cover most points. Apologies if I haven’t :(

Happy Listening :musicsmile:

song: May maadha megham
movie: Shaajahaan
singers: Devan, Sujatha
music: Manisharma

A music treat from Manisharma. All the songs in the Shaajahaan movie are superduper. I hope Manisharma will get a chance to work for Vijay again after doing 3 movies with him already.

[Bala (Karthik)]

Let me indulge in the in between gap. Innaikku remba alachal. Two songs repeated a LOT of times from "Paaru paaru pattanam paaru".

One is of course "Yaar thoorigai". The second is "Thendral varum ennai anaikkum".

Raaja is in extreme form. Surprises, ebbs, flows, counters, the usual works. Ludes to die for and tunes/main melodies gold standard on their own

Q: in Thendral varum, in the charanam, is there a brief departure from the base raagam (which raagam us it, in the first place), at "aadai sumandhu....", only to rejoin in the next line, the end of the charanam?

Love the way SJ mimics the instrument in the pallavi (Raaja specialty). MV/SJ do it, bass guitar no less - in "Unakkum enakkum" (Stee Rahavendra), SPB did it recently towards the end of the fantastic "vaangum panathukkum" (double bass pizzicato) from Dhoni
Another Raaja factor is the *speed*/tempo, for a melody, love song! Here, the tempo of the song as the melody plays out is not pacy per se, but in the va ground, things are happening at a fast pace. And there's a lot happening. Similar to "Roja Ondru" (Oh maane Maane)

[Bala (Karthik)]

[Bala (Karthik)]

How does he *write* those parts? Do we realize what we are listening to? It's not like all the parts start and end at the same time with the same tempo. Mathematical precision. guitar, piano, bass, violins cutting into each other at dazzling speed, ellaam nachunu ukkaarudhu. For an intense love melody (as in, not an invade Poland revolution). Ada pongada :lol: :Vadivel:

Where is the hubber "Scale" who constantly contributing to this thread? Does he hold a different id now? Or he left HUB and not active nowdays?

From what I remember, there was some long ass discussion that was ongoing for a few pages in Song of the Open Road - Part 9 between him and Plum. I can't remember that reason for the ranting and may be the heat got to him and he decided to leave the hub.

Anyway, here is a forgotten song from one of Bollywoods controversial MDs.

சிறார் பருவத்தில்.. எங்க கிராமத்துல இளைஞர்கள் எல்லாம் என்னை இந்தப் படத்தில் கார்த்தியோடு திரியும் சிறுவன் போலவே இருக்கிறேன் என கிண்டல் செய்வதுண்டு.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FmJt7oRrp94

அந்த வயதில் எனக்கு இந்தப் பாடலில் மிகவும் பிடித்த இடம் : "ஆ! ஞானமா? அது நம்ம ஞானப்பிரகாசம்! டேய் ஞானப் பிரகாசம்! இங்கே ஓடிவா உன்ன கூப்பிராங்கடோய்!" என்ற வசனத்தைத் தொடர்ந்து வரும் இசை.

[venkkiram]

குத்து பாடல்கள்/ நண்பர்கள் படை சூழ ஆடிப் பாடி மகிழ்வது..இந்த ரசத்தில் இப்ப உள்ள பாடல்களை (யுவன்/ஹாரிஸ்/ஜிவிபி) ஒப்பிடும்போது தேவாவின் (1990s) பாடல்கள் தனி இடம். மொதோ முறை கேட்கும் போதே ஒண்ணு பிடிச்சிடும். இல்லைன்னா பிடிக்காது. ஆனால் இப்போது போல.."என்ன பாட்டு இது! ஒரு மாதிரி இருக்கு! போகப் போக கேட்கலாம். அப்ப ஒரு வேளை பிடிக்கும்னு நெனைக்கிறேன்!" என்ற பஜனை எல்லாம் கிடையாது.

காப்பி என்றாலும் அதிலும் ஒரு அடிப்படை இசையறிவு இருக்கிறது. இசைக்கோர்வைகளில் தெளிவான ஒரு அமைப்பு தெரியும். ஓரிரு முறை பாடலை கேட்டாலும் பிறகு பல வருடங்கள் கழித்து இடையிசைகளை தனியே கேட்டால் ஓரளவிற்கு பாடலை கண்டுபிடிக்க முடியும்.

Her husband presents her divorce papers on her birthday.

She is consumed by heaviness of the day. He sees the papers and is trying to cheer her up

MJ's Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wanna_Be_Startin'_Somethin') on some random FM radio this AM!

When Kapil Dev was in mood, the flow of runs used to be at an incredible pace. What was most enjoyable was the seemingly effortless manner he used to get them. I had only the privilege of "listening" to most of his best knocks and I was used to hearing & reading the term "effortless" when people described his batting.

It was a great privilege to watch some of those during the WCC and later on when we had access to TV :thumbsup: The real definition of what "effortless" means!

Likewise, it seemed those days that getting a song to top-10 was so effortless for MJ. That way, this song can be called an effortless chakhkhA :clap:

அப்படியே கர்ணன் பற்றி சில எண்ணத்துளிகள். காலங்காலமாக நம் மன்னர்கள் தானதர்மம் செய்துகொண்டுவந்து தான் இருந்திருக்கவேண்டும். ஆனால் அவர்களுக் கடைந்தெடுத்து கடடையெழு வள்ளல்களாக ஏழு பேர் தான் போற்றப்பட்டனர். ஆனால், சரித்திரத்தில் அவர்களை விட அதிகமாக புகழப்படுவது கர்ணனைத்தான்! காரணம் கர்ணன் தானமாக கொடுத்தது உயிரை, உடலை, ஆன்மாவை, உறவை, இப்படி மற்றவர்கள் கொடுக்கத்தயங்குவதை தயங்காமல் கொடுத்ததால் தான் அவன் புகழ் இன்றும் உச்சாணிக்கொம்பில். ஒருவேளை அதனால் தான் கர்ணனின் ஆன்மா மேலோங்க, கர்ணனை வைத்து எடுக்கப்பட்ட படமும் வெளியாகும்போதெல்லாம் பிய்த்துக்கொண்டு ஓடுகிறதோ! அந்த நல்ல ஆன்மாவின் ஒட்டுமொத்த குணத்தை ஒரே பாடலில் வடித்ததால்தான் மெல்லிசை மன்னர்கள் அந்தப்பாடலை அவ்வளவு உயிரோட்டமாக இசைத்தார்களோ! நடிகர்திலகத்தின் "இதுதான் கர்ணன்" என்கிற அடையாளம் காட்டக்கூடிய நடிப்பு, சீர்காழிகோவிந்தராஜனின் அட்டகாச்மான வெண்கலக்குரல், கண்ணதாசனின்(?) உயிரும் உன்மையுமான வரிகள் என அனைத்து நல்ல ஆன்மாக்களும் சங்கமம் ஆனதால் இந்தப்பாடல் எங்கோ உயர்ந்து நிற்கிறது.

அதை அந்த உயிர்ப்பு குறையாமல் கொடுத்த கௌதம், பெரிய பாடகனாக மிளிரும் அடையாளங்கள் தெரிகிறது!

:lol: I saw it too. I don't think he sang the original notes accurately, also lots of problems with the diction. ullaththil?! That put me off completely. But he has the *right* voice to sing that song. And emoting in this song, IMO is really not that difficult. Taking nothing away from the song, btw. Aruna Sairam made a relevant pont though, all that matters is the *connect*, not the pitch/tempo etc.

And the crying part etc. thats usual Vijay TV BS. And the instrumentalist who cried, surely must have seen so many better performances in his life. TV kidaichchca udanE, idhu varaikkin azhudhahdE illainaa, adhellaam enna? 5 rooba kuduththa 500 roobai ferformance.

PS: Rajesh Vaidya (not just in this song) did very well. Also loved some of the song choices, the IR ones especially. I think its the first time I saw someone singing KaattrOdu kuzhalin naadhamE and ninnai charanadainthEn in a reality show :clap:

Yesterday after watching the pallavi, I moved to Kitchen for washing vessels and continue listening it. I could not control my emotions and tears in my eyes. And I am not working for Vijay TV.

The most complete album of 2012 (so far). I know the old man is ready with his one.

Music by Shaan Rahman. Something relates the second name and music. Hub pandits, pls try out the album and post your feedback.

:lol: - exactly! This freaking program is so popular that I see ppl referring it as "Airtel" -just "airtel". adhAvadhu AirtelngaRadhu sponsorunu pOyi appdiyE indha programOda aikkiyamAgi pOchu. And I amsure Airtel has its own brand name before and after this program.

Without reference to this particular instance, it does seem Vijay TV(Like the star of the same name) has a certain pulse of the audience well caught :(
