If voices can cast spells


Disclaimer: This is not a review of the album, "Robot"

Recently been hearing to "Irumbile or idhayam...". D'you think Rajni(Dunno why they changed his spelling, silly!) can do justice to ARR's voice? No ways. Surya tried bigtime in matching himself to the voice in "New York Nagaram" but in vain. And let me not mention the ULTIMATE DISGRACE to Rahman's voice caused by S J Surya in "Arrarai Kodi pergalil oruvan"(originally written for Rajini)... such a meaningful song it was, but wasted on that pompous fool.

Coming back to Irumbile, his voice just is of killer kind especially,

"Saadhal illa saabam vangi man mele vandhene,
Theinmaname illa, kadhal kondu vanthene"

Robot's lyrics' got too many jargons. No one's to be blamed, even washermen started using such terms.

And the next killer voice is of KJ Yesudas. I've heard his songs right from childhood. Beautiful soothing voice. Perfectly matches Kamal and even Rajini. I used to wonder how he could sing so many songs for Lord Ayyapa and been completely successful. "Devotion knows no religion"

Quote Wonderment (I)

I'm totally sick of examinations and stuff. World's worst stressors are exams. I've always had this opinion right from my childhood. Hmmm... So to get a break I was running through my old memories and thoughts. One such is the admiration for this quote, "Sometimes people are beautiful. Not in looks. Not in what they say. Just in what they are." --Markus Zusak The quote itself is amazing. Reminds me of so many things. And note that Markus Zusak's wonderful book called 'The Book Thief' which was a good read. Laziness blocks me from writing more. ;)

Have you also ever wondered?

Have you also ever wondered?????.... What will happen if you pray God sincerely for something and another person prays Him sincerely for the opposite? How do the ice-creams jump by themselves and fall graciously in all the Amul ads? Why on earth does Vijay act in the same storyline even when he knows that he's the punchbag for the current youth? Why do the girls want to be of Zero-Size even though it looks the ugliest and physically so repulsive? How the hell we complete books of 700 pages in a single night before the exam, while we can't do that during the whole year?(be that a novel)   That during the examination days when you sleep you get early morning dreams in which too you'll be reading, so that you think that you're revising and all the same continuing to sleep until 8 and wake up to find a lump in your throat...[This terrible thing happens everytime with me ;)] P.S - The list may have a few additions in the near future.

2 States - Oh please, no!

I don't know why I chose to read '2 States' over 'The Subtle Knife'. My copy of 'Subtle Knife' is sleeping in the shelf. I wish I had finished it off instead of reading this one. M' Okay let me tell why this book was so insipid, [beware of spoilers hehe!] Possible reasons why I picked up this book: 1. Thought it would be a light-read. 2. It involved IIM A 3. Curiosity to know the speciality of Tamil girls 4. Heard it is a slapstick comedy [ which is not, in any way] Top reasons why I disliked it: 1. Cliched plot with stale scenes. [Ithellam nanga 'Poovellam Kettupar' la ye pathutomm, Chetan!!] 2. Making fun of South-Indians went overboard. [where Punjabis were never hurt in any dialogues, a very feeble mocking was clear] 3. Nothing less than a Bollywood drama, too filmy! 4. Totally predictable. 5. Ananya herself [there're are a multitude of reasons to hate her, which I won't enumerate here] 6. The feeling of reading his p...
