LYRICS-competition

Topic started by Ramki (@ pm062-01.spindler.wmich.edu) on Tue Nov 24 16:38:22 EST 1998.
All times in EST +10:30 for IST.

Time to have some more fun?
What is this lyrics potti huh?Well we have all been witnessing the hidden talents of many of our DFers in the lyrics area. So i decided why dont we
have a small competition in terms of lyrics.
What we need to do?
I will give a popular tune and explain the situation for which this particular song was written. All you have to do is come out with entirely different lyrics(but it should be apt for that particular situation).You should write atleast one pallavi and one charanam. Do not use
English words and please refrain from vulgarity(we have many kavignars in Tamil cine world for that). Whoever comes out with the best set will be
selected as the winner.(the winner will be selected on the basis of nadai, content and tamizh usage)
Who will select the winner??Its going to me(hehehe-easy job:))and Rajaraman.
The winner will be given the responsibility to chose the next tune(only the next) and situation and he will join the panel of judes(!!)to select the next winner.
We invite all of you to join the fun and expose your hidden talents to world of TFM fans:)
Do it now:)

  cram, u hit the nail on the head. conditioning is, IMO, a bane while writing, leads to lots of cliches and makes the work dull and insipid. honestly, i haven't even heard the agaval of a mayil:-)

  bb,
  i guess i can use mayil agaval in poetry without any feling of guilt because i have heard it (in delhi, can u believe it?:-))))

  good ones, udhaya and cram..both of u have started with the "ma" syllable:)
  udhaya, would have been better if
  "thurakkach cholvathu vaetham
  thirakkach cholvathu samayam" ??
  i forgot the situation for this song.. can someone update me?

  Purists may cringe at my take on this immortal song by Kannadhaasan, but it goes without saying that I have no illusions about matching the original.

  Thanks,guys this is encouraging. But while writing it I realized again what a magnificent song "Athikkaai" is. The way Kanndhaasan has effortlessly used "kaai" as noun,verb,adjective and metaphor is one of the highest achievements in TFM lyrics.
  
  
• From: bb (@ inehou-pxy04.compaq.com) on: Fri Aug 20 10:52:20 EDT 1999
  
  true, udhaya, that song is probably the best of his ,though it was originally a song like this:
  aththikkaai kaai kaai aalangaai veNNilavE
  iththikkaai kaaindhunak kennapayan - paRRillaa
  avaraikkaai kOvaikkaai avadhiyuRum paavaikkaai
  angumingum thoodhu vazhangaai.

  Just a request:
  
  The "oranjaaram" song from kaakkai chiraginilEy is one which is in badly need of a refurbishment from the Dfers. Can you all attemp new lyrics for the same tune ? The soong is a real gem but with filthy lyrics.
  
  thanks

  neenda idaiveLikku piRagu, thought of reviving this thread. was listening to this superb song from moondru mudichchu: vasantha kaala nadhigaLilE vairamaNi neeralaigaL...
  if i am not mistaken, this song belongs to the andhaadhi style of poetry where the last word of a line is the first of the next. shall we attempt something on those lines? but someone has to post the complete lyrics for that song first.
