Ilayaraaja at his Rustic best - Thiruvaasagam....

Kiss the Laptop vendor who delivered my laptop today...that meant i cud access the lan and swindle all kinds of good music...my music db grew boundlessly in 3 hours and among stuff i lapped up hungrily in my lappie were thiruvaasagam, a aa and rising....the latter two dint get the keypad click...(no mouse yet)....thiruvaasagam was mindblowing...riveting,..inspiring....tear inducing, it took me into a realm of bhakti...yet was so mellifluous and brilliantly simple.....reach is raaja's forte...and reach he did...he touched the deepest chords in my inside and something was so simple yet divine in the music....pooerukanum purandharanum...by bavadhaarini and raaja is my favourite....balumahendra's movie style song...yet a bhakti rasa filled song...thats raaja for you...a close second is "putril vaazharamum anjen" brilliantly orchestrated and rendered by raaja..."ammanaam anjum aare" that line takes the cake.......
guys zikr is no longer where the search for divine music ends....raaja has some answers....
Brilliant.....Tamil Nadu is freakin fortunate to have 2 gods composing magical songs on 2 gods....

Need for Sleep

I know one guy who will gloat in sadistic pleasure reading this...my fellow wannabe B school grad in Vastrapur, Ahmedabad.....Yes sab, you finally got what u wanted....This foolish grad at B also has succesfully fallen trap to the "Lose sleep, Lose sense, Try and gain RG....But lose that also" syndrome..... Its been a while since lady luck bestowed a recharge card with sleep time of 480 mins on me....But then no cribbing...Drinking pepsi at midnight drives me high......And there is a group study mode here...so it aint bad after all...

The grind takes a day's halt today and i thot what better time to fill some space that i know will delight my large group of (yeah i included all 3 of you!!!) readers.....Wanna watch sarkar and catch Mangal Pandey's music soon....Sarkar btw was a great movie to watch...AB and AB rock...and i officially join the "Godfather and movies based on Godfather" fan club....Nayagan and Sarkar are worthy imitations of GF....And yeah...Watch out for Ance Sitco's next productions....The next Girish-Harish Film will take off soon,....the oneliner is ready,.. ;)
And nothin much else to say except that Chennai food rocks and atleast our mess food sucks....
Here's wishing all my readers a merry christmas and a happy new year......
Ok i will shut up and go to sleep now...
