The song opens with the electro beats which is soon backed by the killer vocals. The lead vocalist K.S. Krishnan who happens to be the lyricist of the song is simply unreal and toxic.The Hindi portion is sung by Preeti Pillai (who is lead singer of his most of Kannad songs). The way she says "Khwabon Aate Ho,Dil Main Samate Ho" is simply funky!
Around 1:10 the interlude of the song begins.And the guitars and disc breaks accompanied by classical sounding vocals cant stop your foot tapping.And then you are amused as soon as song reaches around 1:50. The typical Tamil Hip - Hop is now indianized by good flavored mixes of shehnai and damroos.
But no its not over yet.Soon begins Rap portion and then around 2:25, around 2:25 you hear superb beat boxing (very innovative) samples along with the Hindi lyrics by male voice.
And now from 2:57, the perfect blend of various sound instruments and vocals are very well arranged and all the sounds right from the beginning, are heard all together within the next minute.
When the song ends, you cant control but play it again.The song is the ultimate addiction of the album!!
Here are the lyrics (courtesy Google search),
Athisaya raagam aananda raagam
Palaya ragam apoorva ragam
Khwabon mein aate ho aur dil mein sama the ho
Athisaya raagam aananda raagam
Palaya ragam apoorva ragam
Ragam ragam
Khwabon mein aate ho aur dil mein sama the ho
Khwabon mein aate ho aur dil mein sama the ho
Rarara tu chal jathe ho
Rarara tu chal jathe ho
Athisaya raagam aananda raagam
Palaya ragam apoorva ragam
Athisaya raagam aananda raagam
Palaya ragam apoorva ragam
Than than than than thagi thagina thagi thagina tha ditha thagi thagina thagi thagina thagina thagina
Nag nag nag nag nagilal pathe ad pathe
Hoyye hoyye hoyye hoyye hoyye hoyye hoyye
Khwabon mein aate ho aur dil mein sama the ho
Khwabon mein aate ho aur dil mein sama the ho
Dil mein sama the meri rooh mein bas jaate ho………………..
Athisaya Raagam Aananda Raagam
Palaya ragam apoorva ragam
Hoyye hoyye hoyye hoyye hoyye hoyye hoyye
Khwabon mein aate ho aur dil mein sama the ho
Khwabon mein aate ho aur dil mein sama the ho
Khwabon mein aate ho aur dil mein sama the ho
The song will be the anthem of the youth soon if the movie clicks. Prashant Pillai, hope you achieve millions of patrons like your guide and mentor A. R. Rahman.
I think it's "pralaya raagam", the raaga of Pralaya or "non-existence". In some vernaculars, pralaya is also used to mean "a great flood".
ReplyDeleteThe entire Sanskrit verse (I say Sanskrit, but I have an idea that the composer might have thought in Malayalam) may be translated as follows:
The Sound of Excess. The Sound of Bliss.
The Sound of Non-Existence. The Sound of New Future.
On re-hearing the piece, I'm quite certain the "third" raagam isn't Palaya raagam or Pralaya raagam, but "azhagiya raagam". My Tamil / Malayalam is a bit rusty (in fact, I can't speak the languages!) but if I'm not wrong, "azhagiya raagam" means "Beautiful Raaga".
