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"

Simple, yet poignant lyrics (II)

I've got a knack of discovering pleasant songs, excellent movies, endearing books very late in time, sometimes even after it's fad fades away. One such song is Perunthil nee enaku... The beauty of this song is that it relates to some very simple, unnoticed but pleasing moments in a our day to day life. The duet is of two people who sing about  what they mean to each other. There are some cute imperfections in Madhushri's tamil pronunciation but the male singer makes up for all that. Duh! Why do I even have to annotate the lyrics? It speaks for itself. ;) Perunthil nee enaku jannal oram Pin vasal mutrathil ne tulasi madam Vidumurai natkalil pallikoodam Vilayattu pillaigalin chella kobam Aalilla nalliravil ketkum padal Anbe anbe neeye (hmmm....)

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. ;)

Modern Parenting and how to gear up for challenges.

As a youngster you might have had an idea of parenting, like how you would want to raise your future child different from your mother's way of child rearing. But when you fail tremendously in the act and seek your mother's, grandmother's help, you have passed as a modern day parent facing innumerable difficulties bringing up your little munchkin. There is certainly no one particular way of parenting which could be deemed as the best.You must follow a realistic type which suits your own family and lifestyle. Old-fashioned parenting can never be shunned from your entire agenda, because at various situations it actually makes sense, not to mention common sense. Yet, insensible in some ways compared to the contemporary methods. There is no village There is an old saying, “It takes a village to raise a child”, meaning in olden days, it takes a whole community of different people who interact with children in order to raise and make sure your children grow in a ...
