Vairamuthu Rocks !

I've been listening to some brilliant tamizh numbers this afternoon. Mostly duets - of the romantic kind. As always, I paid close attention to the lyrics of some of them and I must confess, at the risk of sounding cliched, that Kavinyar Vairamuthu is simply fantabulous. He most certainly has his way with words. I can't imagine how someone can possibly play with words so skillfully. I mean - yeah - that's why he is what he is - A.R.R's fav. pick. It's simply breathtaking how he can tread into the realms of passionate love between a man and woman and describe it so eloquently that you actually start respecting the entire act ! Here're some of my favourite's.[ Most certainly not an exhaustive list and not necessarily in that order]

Thoda thoda malardhadhenna - S.p.b and chitra - Indira

Pudhu vellai mazhai- Unni menon, sujatha - Roja [ Love the video - So simple, yet hopelessly romantic]

Ondra rendai aasaigal - Bombay jayeshree - Kaakke kaakke [ I know most people dont savour this one that much..nevertheless]

Vaseegara - Bombay jayashree - Minnale [ ditto - I know of people who go "Man - Iam tired of listening to this song]

Kannaamoochi yenada - chitra- Kandukondein kandukondein [Although Iam not a Aishwarya Rai fan - I must admit she look's gorgeous in this video]

Then Merku - UnniKrishnan, Chitra - Karuthamma

Kannukku mai azhagu - Unnimenon/susheela - Pudhiya mugam

Theenda Theenda - UnniKrishnan, Bombay Jayashree - Thulluvado ilamai

Vayadhu Vaa Vaa - Srinivas, Harini - Thulluvado ilamai

Sandai kozhi - Sadhna sargam - Ayudhey ezhuthu

Sigh...
