En Mel Vizhundha Mazhaith Thuliye - May Madham

Beautiful tune by A.R. Rahman. You can watch the full scoop at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZh7CmNBypA

The only thing I have problem understanding is "Vanam thiranthaal mazhai irukum en vayathai thiranthaal nee iruppai"...

Oru Varthai Pesa Oru Varusham from Ayya

I love this song for the simplicity of the lyrics. It feels more like prose. Simple, easy to relate to. The lines about "I imagined our own names in the wedding invitation from next door" is so reminiscent of the good old days when we tried superimposing ourselves in every possible opportunity. If any of you find the music online, please send in the link. It is a beautiful tune also...

I love tamil movie songs.... I simply love them to a point that it can be called an addiction... I have tapes of songs from 1978, I have a ton of CDs and now a ton of them on our iPod and I am constantly listening to them on internet radios.

However, all this time, I have been fascinated by the music and the tunes and never paid much attention to the lyrics. Why? My theory has been that javascript:void(0)my brain has only so much capacity that I either can remember the tunes or the lyrics and not both. And that it would be easier to find lyrics than tunes...

So, after all these years, I have begun paying attention to the lyrics and am beginning to discover a treasure... I am trying to pick a few that is very appealing to me (thats right, me!!!) and catalog them here for others to enjoy and comment on....
