Raja's Gems - the latest one you heard...Part 3

[Sunil_M88]

Thanks V_S +1 on the album, as funny as it sounds yesterday night when sleeping/trying to sleep the 3rd charanam was playing in my head. I don't believe in magic as I think it's all cleverly done but here I'm totally in awe and seriously don't know whats pulling the strings of my heart, when hearing/not hearing this.

Sunil , Thanks for the write up on Devulle Mechindi
SRR is such a stunning album , 2011 was such a brilliant musical year for IR.
V_S , i understand how much you love SRR. I guess it was the longest trance you ever encountered.

Jai ji ,
Enna Paattu idhu , its just outstanding
Something and all is happening
Its funny listening to people saying that IR's 90's musical output is weak.

App ,
I saw a status on Thendral Vandhu on FB.
Half way through this song, in a state of trance, I turned around to see my entire family standing in different corners of my room, captivated by the tune & intruding my privacy with utmost innocence. Only a Raja song can bind 3 generations like this.

Right now hooked on to Endrum Vaanaveliyil Isaikum from Kelviyum Naane Badhilum Naane.
Beautiful Music just happens
Think it will be hard to come out of this one and Shiva Sainya soon , but no complaints. Im just loving it.

I shared this Sivasainya song to my friend and she immediately said it reminded her of Magalir Mattum Title song.
After listening , i too feel the same . Both outstanding compositions in their own right.
Thanks to this man , my entire lifetime is secure with good music.

skr,
Thanks for the Endrum Vaana VeLiyil video. Never watched it. But all the songs in this film are timeless classics. I have written about this last year. Here it is.

Regarding SRR, yes that one was the only new soundtrack I listened to the longest time after its release. It has a special place.

Ah! Sri Rama Rajyam - I have still not moved on, either. Sunil, usually your posts I see as dry, technical and out of my appreciation(and that shouldn't matter to you either). It takes the maestro's masterpiece to wring deep emotion and profound passion in your posts. I am well justified with clear proof in this case - only Raja possible . And unlike V_S, time stopped with SRR for me. Yet to move on. Dhoni, Clarke, Pattinson, Mayilu, Kuyilu et al can wait another few months

To put my post in perspective, look at the last part of Sunil's post. All he has done is quoted the lyric of the song and bold-ed one portion - but as you read through and the lines play in your head, don't you feel the emotion he must have felt while typing it? I do. It's like telepathy or something - I can exactl feel the goosebump and emotion that moved him to simply type the lyric and expect that we'll feel his emotion. It's all sub-conscious but I bet if sunil looks back at his emotional state while typing it, he can identify this phenomenon

[V_S]

Plum, I can understand, how much you too love SRR. Well said, we can feel how much Sunil would have felt when he was writing that. Another plus you have is that you have watched the film. I cannot forgive myself for that. Everyday when coming from office, I am asking if DVD has come. To my luck it is not available yet. SRR is again playing in background as I type this. Unlike I expressed earlier, I cannot pick the best one, every song has its own beauty. Other film songs (especially new ones), after few round of listens, it asks for a break, but not SRR, don't know why. It is always within me. The other soundtrack which I had the same feeling is Bhagyadevatha.

Finally came out of 'thenRal vandhu theeNdum pOthu' on the car, with the help of 'ninnukkOri varNam' which on repeat now

I like the melody in 'ninnukkori' a lot. I think I heard it on radio first and instantly liked it. The orchestration - notably the drumwork - was kind of new and interesting, and in flow with the overall song. Can put this on repeat just for the prelude..!

V_S/Sunil/Plum,

And from the same song Raja extracts that 'sreekaram manoharam' phrase for the BGM. Sheer genius work there.
