Songs I Luv : Thuli Thuli from Paiyaa

Hi all

Recently i thought that i would aggregate my favourite songs and put it as my playlist , but i thought instead of that, i would select a song , which i love most and describe the best part of the song , which particular line or tune i like in it so that you all can also experience the ecstasy like me. For me music is deeply intertwined with my life.  That’s because of the constant encouragement and support from my family and also my friends. Anyway shall we get into the world of my music..

Today my selected song is “Thuli Thuli “from Paiyaa. Recently it was nominated as the top song so far in 2010 my Behindwoods.com. Previuosly i used to love yuvan , he had all the variety in the start , but as time passed , i started seeing more remix from his father’s songs and less variety . but as usual , the world is round and this time he has came with a big bang. This song is full of love and backed my the strong lyrics, this one song is to be heard a thousand times, thanks again for the superb lyrics by Na. Muthukumar

Song is sung by haricharan. The song starts with a good beat and slowly takes into the main song. Haricharan voice is excellent and particularly in one place which is will tell you a little later. Before going, here is the lyric of the song.

Thuli thuli thuli mazhaiyai vanthaley-heyyy..
Chuda chuda chuda marainthey ponnaley-eyy..
Paarthal paarka thondrum,
Peyrai kerka thondrum,
Poopozh sirikum-bothu,
Kaatrai paranthida thondrum..

Sezh sezh avaludam sezh,
Yendrey kaazhgal sozhuthada..
Sozh sozh avaludam sozh,
Yendrey nenjam kolluthadaa..
Azhagai manathai parithu-vittaley..

Thuli thuli thuli mazhaiyai vanthaley-heyyy..
Chuda chuda chuda marainthey ponnaley-eyy..

[MUSIC]

Thevadhai aval oru thevadhai,
Azhagiya poo mugam kaanaveyh,
Aayul-thaan pothumoh..
Kaatrilae aval adhu vaasanai,
Aval-idam yosanai keyttudhaan,
Pookalum pookumoh..

Netri meleyh ottrai mudi aalum-bothu,
Nenjukkuley minnal pookum paarvai aalai thookum..
Kannam paarthal mutham-gazha theendazh thondrum,
Paatham rendum paarkum-bothu gollusaai maara thondrum
Azhagai manathai parithu-vittaley..

Sezh sezh avaludam sezh,
Yendrey kaazhgal sozhuthada..
Sozh sozh avaludam sozh,
Yendrey nenjam kolluthadaa..

[MUSIC]

Saalaiyil azhagiya maazhayil,
Avaludan pogaveyh yengumeyh,
Thozhgalil saayuven..
Bhoomiyil vizhugira veylaiyil,
Nizhalaiyum odipoi yenthuven,
Nenjiley thaanguven..

Kaanum-bothey kannal-yenna katti pottal,
Kaayam indru vetti pottal uyirai yetho seithal,
Mounam-aagha ullukuley pesumbodhum,
Angey vanthu vottu keytal,
Kanavil koochal pottal..
Azhagai manathai parithu-vittaley..

Sezh sezh avaludam sezh,
Yendrey kaazhgal sozhuthada
Sozh sozh avaludam sozh,
Yendrey nenjam kolluthadaa..

Thuli thuli thuli mazhaiyai vanthaley-heyyy..
Chuda chuda chuda marainthey ponnaley-eyy..
Thuli thuli thuli mazhaiyai vanthaley-heyyy..
Chuda chuda chuda marainthey ponnaley-eyy..

The background beat and use of instrument is excellent. Even though i don’t know carnatic , but i used to sing lots of songs. So as a non carnatic person , and as person like you , i know how difficult it is sing certain part of the song. For carnatic experts , those may be a cakewalk , but for day today life , especially when you don’t have a music player , you become the singer and your mind becomes the virtual instrument player.

Netri meleyh ottrai mudi aalum-bothu,
Nenjukkuley minnal pookum paarvai aalai thookum..

Kannam paarthal mutham-gazha theendazh thondrum,
Paatham rendum paarkum-bothu gollusaai maara thondrum

The song hits the high note in the middle..and rapidly followed by another high . As a casual singer, hitting two high successively is a bit difficult , unless otherwise you want to stop for a few seconds and take the right pitch and take on the second high… anyway its all easy if you start the first high a little lower , so that the second high can be covered with the rest of the breath and don’t have to peak again .  But anyway if you try to sing the two peaks continuously, i am sure the voice will have to break a little on the second high.. it’s that high and yuvan is always known for his highs..

The best part of the song is not the tune or the singer … its the lyrics. The most romantic lines i have heard in the recent times. It really shows how much a love can do and willing to do. Even though all the line are just metaphor , they are all beautifully woven together to give a nice romantic feel

Overall this song is a beauty …
