As I was returning from office in my car today, my driver, as per my standing instructions, played a CD from my car's "MSV-Song-Bank" and there came a wonderful number

"THULLIYODUM KAALGAL ENGAY" from the film 'Periya Idathu Penn".

I heard this song for the first time only about a year back - thanks to the 'MSV encyclopedia' Mr Sabesan, who gave this casette to me.

I listened, listened and keep listening, probably for 100th time in the last one year and I was cursing myself like ' How the hell you missed this song all these years ?'

The more I listen the more I get attracted to the song - in fact that is the speciality of any MSV's song !

During my visit to the US last year, self, my wife Vasantha and Ram were listening to the song a couple of dozen times as we were travelling in a train from NY to Washington.

Let me stop the Prelude and come to my analysis of the song.

A beautiful violin flow, flawless flute and a Guitar piece set a grand stage for TMS to start

THULLIYODUM KAALGAL ENGEY
THOONDIL PODUM KANKAL ENGEY .. flute ‘ tat tat tat’
THULLIYODUM .. KANGAL ENGEY ..
Nanjundaiya links this line to the next line with his wonderful flute piece

KALLAPPARVAI POVATHENGEY
KANNICHELVAMEY . (TMS)

Here Mellisaimannar gives the signature piece of the song:

A guitar strike and humming OOOooooo . (You fall flat here itself !)

What a great imagination of the Master .

This Guitar and Humming keep coming at the end of each Charanam to link Flow to Pallavi.

Here enters PSusheel from a different level

MAALAIDA THEDI SONNAL
MANJALUKKU THOODU SONNAN
PAALARUNTHA NAAL KURITHAN
PANJANAIYAI VIRITHU VAITHAAN
PAALARUNTHA NAAL KURITHAN
PANJANAIYAI VIRITHU VITHAAN

Guitar..OOOOooooo. (marvelous)

The beauty pieces of the song are :

• The Guitar and humming
• Three different ‘Thaala Nadai’ in every Charam – which make you swing your head automatically to match the rhythm
• Flute interludes linking lines
• Violin flows in a different style
PS’s a wonderful humming AAAA Aha ahaha Ohoho
in between.

Last few lines of the song

“VAZHVATHENDRU INAINDUVITTOM
VANJAMINDRI MAHIZHNTHIRUPPOM’
What a great Lyrics explaining the bondage of the lovers !

Is there anybody now to write such Lyrics ?

The song ends with a humming by TMS and PS
accompanied by a violin flow which smoothly
flows in the opposite direction of the lyrics flow ..
What a great Creation by our Master !

Let me stop this as I am getting emotional.
I request all of you to right away listen to the song
To understand its greatness !!

Bye
Ramki

Dear MsvRamki Sir,

So happy I am, to see your emotional elaborations on the great Song. Thank you very much. As younger followers, we need your freq contributions... like when the Volley Ball tends to droop down, a pair of hands imparting the required energy to push it up again.

I am so sorry...I missed this forum for a longer duration. Lots of pleasant surprises and invaluable gifts added during the past 15 ~ 20 days!

Once again, thank u very much for energizing us.

With Love

This is a wonderful song which I did'nt have a chance to hear till last May, when my parents visited US during that month. Credit to my dad. This is one of the very few songs for which I saw the video as well, for the first time. The whole month we were listening to it umpteen number of times each day - during travel, before sleep, first thing in the morning etc!

What an absolute Melody from the master!!!
