Today, I would like to discuss 2 songs both of which are Tamil songs.<\/p>\n

1.Velli Nilave<\/span>-This song is composed by Maestro Ilaiyaraja<\/span> for the movie Nandavanatheru<\/span>. It has been sung by the magical singer Shri. S.P.Balasubramaniam<\/span>. It is an amazing song, very different from the normal run-of-the-mill stuff that we hear. The unique feature of this song is the wonderful tune and the combination of instruments that Ilaiyaraja uses. There is a continuous off-beat kind of bass strumming which I have never heard before. The talent of composers is shown when they do something radically different, it can be something very small but its effect will be big. That’s called genius and Ilaiyaraja shows through this song why he is one of the best composers ever in India. Mention must be made about the wonderful singing by S.P.B. the emotions he brings to his voice is unbelievable. Please don’t miss this one-of-a-kind song!!!<\/p>\n

2. Ennuyir Thoziye<\/span>– This song is composed by another genius A.R.Rahman<\/span>. This song was not noticed much because the movie-Kangalal Kaidhu Sei<\/span>, vanished in no time. It is sung by Unni Menon & Chinmayi<\/span>. It is set in predominantly in Raag Aarabhi<\/span>. It’s so melodious and soothing with the piano counters. According to me this is one of THE best songs composed by ARR, but sadly it did not get the accolade it deserved. The tune in the charanam is so innovative that first you would feel you are listening to some other song. Added to that Chinmayi’s ghatkas before the 1st paragraph are too good.<\/p>\n

These 2 songs are great in their own ways and they just show what legendary composers are made of. Ilaiyaraja and Rahman are the 2 doyens of Tamil Music (of Indian music itself!!), whose tunes are timeless.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
