Varaga nadhi

Was listening to this song from Sangamam (my review : here) after a long time - at a relatively high volume - and was able to observe tiny and interesting ideas that ARR had while at work.

The frenetic pace, the energy in the song, the amazing rendition, beautiful instrumentation, neat lyrics - made for a good r&r song - one could not hope for a better relaxation !!!

Sometimes, you can clearly see why genius'es are His own children - AND/OR, are we the benefactors of such creative music :) ?

I know, So I can...

One musical example of this attitude is a song 'Garuda Garuda' by Deva, for the movie Natpukaga. This was the distinct phase of his career when he decided to abandon IR 'style' in his composition to be current with ARR's 'style' ;)

Listen to this song carefully, and observe the piano riffs throughout- a'la jazz/blues song - and the bass sections and 2 people in the carpool immediately noticed how 'odd' certain sections were.

e.g 1.01 -1.02 , 1.32-1.33, 3.00-3.02 and so on...

Be a judge :)
