Engayum, Eppodhum Sangeetham Sandhosham…. :-)

For some books are passion, for some surfing, chatting and so would be passion.. But for most am sure Music would be the passion. (Well here, by passion I mean something to do as far as recreation is considered.) And to me, it’s something more.. Like one of the Rajini’s famous dialogue goes… “I eat Music, I sleep Music and walk Music.” What started as jus a Stress Buster turned out to be a very integral part of Me. Music has to be with Me wherever I go and in what ever I do. Here are the few of my picks from my everlasting list of all time favorite hits:

• To begin with, Poove sem Poove from Solla thudikkuthu mansau:

This is my child hood fav song. Man, Am jus so in love with this song. It’s one among the best and beautiful compositions of Ilayaraja Sir.And above all. The singing Maestro, K.J.Yesudas sir’s divine voice. Even now when I listen to this song on ear phones, I drive past my child hood memories. This is one such song which makes your soul calm and shows the true happiness within us.

• Thalattuthe Vanam…

I consider this song to be one of the best of Ilayaraja’s Romnatic hits. This song itself describes the story ina nut shell. And not to forget about Janaki Amma’s rendition of the song. She would start the song with a husky and quixotic voice and would maintain it through the song keeping up with the pace and the mood of the song. The music and the voice would mutually complement one another. Each time I hear this song, I would sense a new feel of emotion which will surely harmonize with my mood at that time.

• Azhagae Sugama…. from Paarthale paravasam :

And this is Rahman sir’s one of the brilliant song ever composed by him.One could die for the last few minutes of the song. Well am really not gonna delve into the review of this master piece song.Any music lover would surely feel the soul of the song.

• Udaya Udaya…. from Udaya

This is again an under rated song of Rahman Sir’s.. But, Jus listening to this soft romantic number on earphones on a nice breezy day with gentle rain and cup of not-so- hot tea and then am sure this will take you places….

• Ae Hairathe…. from Guru

Well, I’ve jus deeply fallen in love with this song. The voices of Hariharan ji and Alka ji have so blended well that you could really not tend to stay away from the music. And not to forget about Rahman sir’s small but the best part which goes like….. dum dara dum dara…. WOW!!! If there’s any other jargaon to it.. please use it..

Poi solla kudathu kadhali… from Run..

One of the best of Vidyasagar sir’s music… And not to forget Hariharan Ji’s rendition of the song…Few songs can be much appreciated only if could hear even the minutest of the sound… and this song is one… This is My all time favourite one…

Well.. well this post is going a too long one with my hit lists… and see that much how is I like.. I can jus go on and on and on.. but for now let me stop here and I shall again come back with another list and not to forget about my favourite musicians… :-)

To Be continued…..
