எனக்கு பிடித்த பாடல்கள்

I am listening(watching) to some music videos since morning and the lineup is quite interesting. For a change, these are not Ilaiyaraaja's compositions.

The list was something like this..

It started with the playful "Manjil Kulikkum Raaverayay" from Veruthe Oru Bhaarya, composed and sung by Shyam Dharman. The highlight of this track are the antics of Jayaram, where he impersonates various Malayalam actors. Amazing & Hilarious stuff..

Continuing with the list(??)
Chella Kurinji-Mullavalliyum Thenmaavum-Ousepacchan-Unni Menon & Sujatha [Song--->Movie--->Composer--->Singer(s)]. This is a 'anytime-listen' romantic song complete with nice picturization and a beautiful looking Chaya Singh.

Next in line were the 2 beautiful songs from "Karuttha Pakshigal", Mazhyil Raathri Mazhyil and Venmukiledho. Manjari & Jayachandran are just awesome in their respective songs. Mohan Sithara continues his good work from Thanmathra adding some soul to this movie with his compositions (these are the only 2 songs in the album, though there is also a female version of Venmukiledho by Sheela Mani).

Mazhayil:

Venmukil:

Mohanlal starrer Photographer may have been a dud at the box office, but the song "Ende Kannanu Karuppu Niram" is a marvellous duet between 'கந்தர்வ குரலோன்' K J Yesudas and the supremely talented Manjari.

All of us have appreciated the super hit "Ente Khalbile" sung by Vineeth Srinivasan. But my favorite in the 2006 flick Classmates is "Kaathirunna PeNNallae". Alex Paul infuses such a marvellous feel to this song with the chorus that sings some folkish melodies. Jyotsna, Devanand and Soniya render the lead vocals in this melody.

Currently, it is "Sangeetha Swarangal" from Azhagan thats on a loop. I don't think there is anyone who doesn't like this song by Maragadha Mani. SPB and Sandhya are brilliant to say the least. But the best part of the song are the lyrics, I thought.

Check this out for a conversation...

ஆண்: நெஞ்சில் என்னவோ நெனச்சேன்
பெண்: நானும் தான் நெனச்சேன்
ஆண்: ஞாபகம் வரல
பெண்:யோசிச்சா தெரியும்
ஆண்: யோசனை வரல
பெண்: தூங்குனா விளங்கும்
ஆண்: தூக்கம் தான் வரல
பெண்: பாடுறேன் மெதுவா..உறங்கு!

Hats off to Pulamai Pitthan and of course, KB for the situation and the picturization.

Its still on loop..and I am loving it.
