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:)

Guys,
How about making "Oh paappaa laali" from Idhayaththai Thirudaathae our next song? Vaali makes this song sound so obviously like a dubbing song. Can't we do better?

Babu, fabulous. Just a suggestion. the last line has an unfitting "sandham". I feel if it is "adhikAlaiyil varum sooriyan nambi nee unangaai" it suits the sandham better
- From: babu (@ 198.153.135.42)
on: Tue Mar 30 17:50:53 EST 1999
Thanks Udhaya, MS.
MS, you are right, I too noticed a slight sandhan shift in the last line.

Kamesh,
Murali Shankar did an amazing job rewriting "Ennavalae" that I feel obliged to repost it here from the short-lived, "If you were the lyricist" thread.
From: Murali Sankar (@ 129.252.26.37) on: Sat Nov 14 01:24:17 EST 1998
I think I will place a few points regarding the above point. I do not know if they will be appreciated. In fact after hearing
"ennavaley" I felt a bit annoyed about the line "kumbittu kannadippaen". Hence I preffered to change the entire song by myself
(only for my satisfaction). The fully rewritten song goes as follows:
"Manjariyey adi sundhariyey unnai anudhinam kandiduvaen
kunjariyey ezhil poochchoriyum undhal koondhalai theendiduvaen
Undhan selaiyiley pugum thendralidam rou seydhiyai cholli vaippaen
En paattiniley varum raagathiley oru pudhumayum seydhu vaippaen - sezhum
Kaattiniley ulla nalmayil pondra un aattaththil manam layippaen"
"Vanji un koondhalil vandhidum vaasaththil kannayarndhurangiduvaen
vanjira meeninai poondra un kanngalum thunjida ithazh padhippaen
konjidum kaigalai nenjinil serthunai manjaththil veezhthiduvaen
thunjidum velayil thugilinai kalaindhu un mugaththinil mugam padhippaen
en kaadhali !paaradi!
idayinil yaazhisaippaen
en kannmani!sugam tharum ponmani!
iravinil unai anaippaen!
(Manjariyey)
Kaadhaliyey unai kaana "e"yandridin kaatrinil karaindhiduvaen
Mohiniyey un azhaginukkey oru oviyum varaindhiduvaen
kadalalai pondru un kavinmigu kaalgalai theendiyae magizhndhiduvaen
kodiyenappadarnthu nee meniyai thazhuvida sugamathil amizhndhiduvaen
(ilakkiya censor)
Naam seyrvadhaal, soarvadhaal
sorgamum theriyudhadi
Naam vaazhvadhaal vazhndhu veezhvadhaal
unnmayum puriyudhadi.
(Manjariyey)"
That is all. hope that is very revealing. Any takers ?
Murali Sankar

All right! If no one else is going to dare to participate then I got another sacrilege to perform. This time it is "Pani Vizhum Malarvanam".
