Thread: Raga of songs

  1. #801
    Guys,
    Any comments on my earlier query? ( "oru kootil" song from the jayaram-Khusboo starrer)

    Srini, I know no way to listen to that song you're asking about. Sorry.

    srini, sounds mayamalawagowlai (MMG) to me, given the haunting quality of the song !!!

    I am reminded of Jawar seetharaman's ghost story "udal porul aanandhi"...there the ghost plays this raga only in veenai...pretty scary association at that time, for me...so i have given MMG raga a haunting ghost raga tag :-D

    Vel,
    Took me back to my childhood days. I still remember watching this soap dumb-founded on DD. nice nostalgia!.

    BTW, This song reminds me of a number of Karthik Raja's songs.The way the song is structured, the kind of instruments used etc. etc. has the style of karthik Raja.

    After all, Its kinda natural that he gets his father's style of composing. ain't it?

    Many people vouch that mayamalawagowlai has this haunting eerie kinda quality....

    one person i know is over 30 years old, but he still says he is not comfortable while listening to "manjal nilaavukku indru orae sugam" song ...it sends a peculiar chill down his spine it seems, and though he loves the song, it spookes him thoroughly :-D

    Needless to say, it is based on MMG raga too...i too found the song pretty much haunting during those childhood days...

    Just was listening to "enna samaiyalo" - the swaraksharam details for the song show intricate craftsmanship...

    BG,
    In this first post of the thread, you can explore the links in 'Old database'. Or visit the threads in the ICM forum.

    Here we basically discuss only raga based film songs.

    vel,

    I think G.Ramanathan is the pioneer in this . Just listen to the 'kurangilirunthu piranthavan manithan' swaras.

    ma ni tha.. kurangu

    maa maa kurangu tha tha kurangu..
    Ni kurangu Ni kurangu

    Picturisation is also too good.

    Later MSV did a bit in Bale pandiya - "neeye unakku endrum nigaraanavan" - maa maa.. (maapile)
