My song

Everyone has their song, here's mine..

I couldn't upload it from Youtube, as for some odd reason it doesnt seem to be compatible to blogspot (really!). But I can compensate for it by giving you a link. It's not the clearest of videos but hey, who cares, listen to the lyrics. That is me folks... its me. That is who I am. It plays in my mind all the time and never feels to cheer me up when I'm low.

Check out the attitude! And what lovely music!! You can't but help admire the way 2 rythms merge into one. And the movie director is the best in the world! It's amazing how he adapts Indian mythology into modern day dramas! And manages to deliver a hit too!! Please, can I marry him?
"Ula varum kanakal kannile
Orayiram vinakal nenjile"

Does anyone know what 'Romanjanam' is. Too bad we don't have a Oxford dictionary for Tamil.

I could yak all day long about the pleasent melody that plays in the background throughout the song. What's the instrument? Piano? Violin? Be warned that youtube is the best place to listen to the music. You can barely hear the background score.

"Naan vaanavillai veandinaal
Ore villai koduthu vaanguvaen
Ven maega kootam yaavaiyum
En methai yaakki thoonguvaen"

Sigh!

Hey BB, the girl in the video is describing herself.

The first 2 lines in the post loosely translates from Tamil thus:
"My eyes carry colourful dreams,
And my heart a thousand questions."

The next four:
"If I wish for the rainbow,
I will buy it for a price;
I will make the clouds my mattress
And sleep in it every day."

Trust me, these lines sound a lot poetic in Tamil.

And the music.. awesome!
