இந்தமாதிரி ஒரு அபூர்வமானபாடலை எந்தஒரு ஆர்கஸ்ட்ராவிலும் பாடி நான் கேட்டதில்லை , பாடுவதற்கு அவ்வளவு கடினமான ஒரு பாடல் இது ; T.M.S. ஒருவரே பாடப்பிறந்தவர்.
இந்த பாடல் பிரபலமான சமயங்களில் ஒரு முறை ஒரு கல்யாண கச்சேரியில் அன்றைய காலகட்டத்தில் பிரபலமாக இருந்த திரு.ஏ.வி.ரமணன் இசைக்குழு நடத்திய மெல்லிசை நிகழ்ச்சியில் கேட்ட ஞாபகம் உள்ளது இன்றளவும்.
Kavignar Kannadasan selected wind as a faster mode of communication since time is short Shivaji Ganesan has to communicate his acceptance. Moreovertime lag is justlike mist of Marghazli Tamil month. Also Kannadasan has not given chance for failure. He says though white hairs have grown on head but no screen has shut his heart i.e promise Shivaji acted nicely and provedthat he is a great actor. Hindu paper reported Shivaji's death as act again
Great TMS. No one can sing like TMS for sivaji sir. Unfortunately due to politics, last few movies of sivaji sir songs were sung SPB and Malaysia vasudevan were not great hits like earlier songs sung by tms. I feel, even Sivaji sir was not in favour of TMS, due to this, many films bombed at box office. We always should keep politics away from art. After illiayaraaja entered film industry, the politics has played major role in tamil movie music industry.
Brilliant song, one among the many involving TMS-NT-MSV-KD. Appears to be based on Chakravaham/Ahir Bhairav - same as that of the immortal Karnan song - Ullatthil nalla ullam but in its majestic gait, heart-warming lyrics and peerless delivery, the present song inches ahead. MSV must have composed the tune after the lyrics were written. The pallavi - "karpanaikku" is almost like a virutham and never gets repeated; it is "Deivatthin Ther eduthu" to which the song returns after every charanam. In my opinion, the high points of the song are in the second part of each charanam -"Paavaikku pottu veitthen", "Maamazhai Megham indru", Nayakiye enathu kaaviya" - TMS's pitch-perfect rendition at these points is a challenge to other singers - Can you beat this? TMS seems to ask. And Kannadasan strikes gold in every charanam with"Narai vizhunthalum nenjil thirai vizha villai" being the crown. Ravi
R Ravi Mr ravi.. Hats off to your analysis.. As an ardent fan is msv combo.. ...I have always felt that his compositions are unique and can never be repeated.. But I don't know how to explain it.. When I find people like you analysing it I find that this is what I am feeeling... When you wrote.."can you sing better". Exactly what I felt....can anyone sing better.... There is a live presentation of this song by TMS in you tube.. Pls see if you havent
Dear Krishnan: Thanks for your kind words. I am not an expert in music but wrote purely based on how I felt. No composer in TFM has moved me so much as MSV. And in combination with Kannadasan, TMS and Susheela, the combo is simply incomparable. Ravi
YES, This song is based on Chakravaaham. As U hv rightly Highlighted,TMS's rendition is outstanding. On listening to this song one more MSV's gem which comes to my mind is CHANDRAKAANTHAM (MALAYALAM FILM 1974) - SWARGAM ENNA KAANANATHIL SWARNAMUGI NATHIKARAIYIL - sung by Yesudos. Some of the Songs composed by MSV based on Chakravaaham OR his tunes which has the Origin of Chakravahaam are: Ullaththil Nalla Ullam, Kaanagathai thedi enge poagiraal Malar Kall irukkum valar Koondhal Jaanaki (KODI MALAR), Maanikka Thottil Ingirukka Mannavan Mattum Angirukka (Panam Padaithavan), Oruvanukku Oruthi Endru (Thaenum Paalum), Thaai Paadum Paattu thaanae Thaalaattu Paattu Thangame Palli kollu En Paatttai Kaettu (Naam Pirandha Munn) and Deivathin Paer Edutthu Deviyaia Thaedu (Paatum Bharathamum). I believe, in the Krishna Gaanam album, the Song KOADHAIYIN THIRUPPAVAI VASAGAN EMBAAVAI KOOPIDUKM KURAL KAETTU KANNAN VANDHAAN also appears to have the Origin of Chakravaahaam partly and partly has the shades of Maaya Maalava Gowla.
