Woke up early morning with adi penne playing in my mind..
Then I had the "whoa" moment ..
unlike most of the melodies before this song and later on in 90s, the charanam had a flow that you wouldnt call "free flowing" a term we almost award or burden most of Raaja's songs. The female voice is out of step with the mini-ludes with which raaja punctuates the song. It is like this the nature has a rhythm - the rivers flow quickly, the birds chirp briskly, but this girl is stuck - she is stuck in love - so when the mini ludes that answer the lead voice solo play, it plays in a regular speed while the girl is singing in a "trance" mode -slower than the surrounding rhythm - how can such a song be conceived and be popular with masses too? nowadays we are almost resigned to the marching/thumping dance floor beat in almost every song - even in slow paced melodies.. what prompted Raaja to do an experiment like this? probably the way Mahendran narrated the situation - the way he "inspired him"..
Jai, Excellent point of view. :clap: Neenga neenga thaan. Please continue.
