Veyilodu Vilayaadi from Veyil

Drought. So, I am trying to be an optimist. Let us rejoice over the sun.

Amma Endralaikaatha from Mannan

To my darling mum - who brought me into this world and has been my greatest inspiration, the pillar of my hopes and the foundation of my life. May God bless her with long life, extreme happiness and good health.

Happy Birthday Amma. This one is especially for you.


Thuli Thuli from Paiya

One of recent favourites. Very addictive.

Naan Vaanavilaiyey from Moovendar

Absence surely makes the heart grow fonder, and this song discloses the feelings beautifully.

Mounamaana Neram from Salangai Oli

SPB and Janagi-Ma mesmerize us in this poignant number.

Kannanuku Enna from Dhanam

The carnatic feel to this song makes it very memorable. And, befitting to the ambience of that particular scene - which is ironically, in the temple - during a religious occasion. Impressive Tamil lyrics.

Engengo Sellum from Patakathy Bairavan

A certain cadence about this song. And, not to mention, groovy.

Azhage Bramanidum from Devathayai Kanden

Eloquent lyrics are the highlight of this song. Matrimony is such a beautiful journey, and this song verbalizes certain aspects of it.

Thangathile from Baagapirivinai

A deserving number from yesteryears. This classic piece will always be celebrated. P. Susheela for Visvanathan Ramamurthy. Lyrics by the great Kannadasan.

Mazhaie Mazhaiye from Eeram

One of my current favourites. The movie had an uncommon and bizarre storyline, but nevertheless worthwhile. Praiseworthy, infact !!!

Sempattu Poovum from Purusha Latchanam

Cant help but post this song with such significant lyrics. It did not become a hit, but I liked it anyway.


Thursday, February 18, 2010

Samikitey from Das

An effortless but intelligent number by Yuvan. Sung by Hariharan and Shreya Goshal.


Wednesday, February 17, 2010

Poovukellam from Uyirodu Uyiraaga

A real situation song. The feeling when love charms its way through your heart, and you want to say so many things but you can't. Kay Kay, Srinivas and Harini blow your mind and senses with this beautiful number.

Enathuyire from Beema

Post Valentine's. We took a stroll under the clear starry night. It was as beautiful as this song. If only we had a background score, just like in the movies. Haha. Wishful thinking.

Rayile Rayile from Five Star

Despite the years, Five Star is one movie that I still adore. Yes, I am a huge Prasanna fan. But, the movie had other plus points as well - like the Indian beauty in feminine Kaniha, the bond between these friends, the issues on arranged marriages, the importance of fidelity, the absolutely different storyline and of course, all those fabulous songs.

Feeling and delivering the sentimental feel is Unnikrishnan's cup of tea.

Yetheytho Maatramada from Thoovanam

Thoovanam did not sit well with the Indian audience despite its good storyline. For me, one song stood out, and that is this. Love can make you do many silly things. Enjoy the lyrics by Newton and the feel by Anuradha Sriram, and you will know what I mean.

Caution : This will put a huge smile on your face.

Kathalai Yaar from Thaka Thimi Taa

Hariharan and Mathangi to the lyrics of Thabu Sankar and the music of D. Imman. Like this one for no apparent reason. Nice.


Thursday, February 11, 2010

Chitirai Nilavu from Vandi Cholai Chinarasu

P. Jayachandran and Minmini sang this song. Lyrics like this, only the great Vairamuthu, can give. Lovely.


Wednesday, February 10, 2010

Kangal Irandaal from Subramaniapuram

No one would disagree with me, I guess. This movie was made on mediocre budget, but turned out to be a great hit. And, this particular song was practically on everyone's favourite list.

....கறைகள் அண்டாத காற்றும் தீண்டாத
மனதுக்குள் எப்போது நுழைந்திட்டாய்....  

Beautiful !!!!

Kanmoodum Velayilum from Mahadevi

Kannadasan for AM Raja & P. Susheela. Music by Viswanathan Ramamurthy.
My dad sang this song all the time. It dazzled me, just like it did Appa.


Yaaro from Chennai 600028

Not only because I am insanely mad about Chennai, but also because this song, simply put -  is peppy and urbane. Listen to the lyrics by Vaali - truly fetching. And, how can any song go wrong when you have SPB and Chitra-Ji ???

Rathiriyil Paadum Paatu from Aranmanai Kili

It is rare for people to actually like this song. I do, though. The happy and breezy feel in the song, lured me.


Friday, February 5, 2010

Uppu Kallu from Karupusamy Kuthagaikaarar

Bombay Jayashree and Dhina embed vivacity in this song. Yugabharathi has penned beautiful lyrics.


Thursday, February 4, 2010

Minnale from May Maadham

SPB impresses - completely. The feel is so authentic.


Paravaiyin Kootil from Katrathu Tamil

Another gem of a movie. I was blown away by Jeeva's acting. He did such a brilliant job. Everything about this movie was good.
Illayaraja brings life, passion, purity and love into this song. With intros - to enlighten the audience on how much affection the hero had for his childhood sweetheart.

Oru Vetkam Varuthey Varuthey from Pasanga

By Naresh Iyer and Shreya Goshal. Pasanga, is a gem of a movie.


Tuesday, February 2, 2010

Naan Pogiren Meley Meley from Naanayam

My present day favourite. Wow for SPB and Chitra-Ji and the super cute Prasanna.

Chelamey Chelam from Album

How time flies !! The last day of the first month of the year. What better way then to post a chirpy number. Happy February tomorrow !!!!
