Super Interludes

This past week , some tamil songs have been on my mind.I just was not able to get em out.I was singing on the train..singing at home while I cook...All the time practically !

I wanted to throw out a list of songs.This list of songs has some of the best interludes I have enjoyed.Awrite here we go..

1.Song: Anbal Unnai Velvom.. Film:Three Roses
KR , an underrated and unlucky composer.In this song , he proves his genius.Look out for the second interlude , when it starts with violins..turns into techno+violins..and ends with violins.
Jus brilliant !!

2.Song:Pani Vizhum Maalayil ..Film:Meera
Classic IR song.My fav. singer SPB just walks away with all the honors in this song..But when the second interlude begins..you realise who's the boss..IR the great !!

3.Song:Enakenna Erkanavae Pirandhaval Ivalo ...Film:Parthen Rasithen
Other than this song appears in a Prashanth film....Everything is brilliant in this song.Second interlude again !

4.Song:Malaragale..Film:Lovebirds
ARR's brilliant composition alongwith Hariharan's golden voice are only "accessories" when you listen to the brilliant second Interlude..Mandolin..Beats..what not ??


5.Song:Kandukonden Kandukonden..Film:Kandukonden Kandukonden
Well ,,I struggle to put this song on this list for two reasons.One is ..well ..If i had to compile a list of top 5 songs I have ever listened to ..this song would be in the that list...It is such a brilliant song..just cannot get better..But anyway..the second interlude..
with a "Opera" feel is amazing.

6.Song:Ninnukori..Film:Agni Natchathiram
Read first 4 lines of explanantion for song 5...and..
Brilliant work with the guitar and flute !!


Thats my list for now..Listen to these songs..and tell me if you agree with me...Ill be back with more songs !

Enjoy..

PS.CAVS at SPURS tonite..Im pumped BABY !!

KR..konjam free'aa udra..Over machi KR..he has to get the right break..Also this song....."Kaadhal Vaanoli"...in the film "Album" is pure class..

I've heard all the interludes except for the pani vizhum maalayil and yes they are brilliant ! I will try to think of more and we'll append this as we go on...when you listen to malargale and kandukonden, I realized how stupid I was when I was making half baked comments about rahgman's music when he started. The more I listen to him, the more he makes me feel "I shouldnt even try to crtique his work".

As for cavs Vs spurs..I very nearly got the NBA league pass yesterday, but stopped when I heard I ca;t cancel it whenever I wanted. But as you can see, I am extremely tempted at this point !

I think "En Veettu Thottathil" from the movie "Gentleman" qualifies for having a good interlude. Ofocurse, I don't know much about appreciating music from a technical point of view.

Sethu...Its definitely a good bit...I just dont think its one of the best in recent times.
Otherwise , I think EN VEETU is a very good composition.
