Song of the Day, Jan 28, 2006

This post illustrates the genius of Ilayaraja ...

First listen to this song:
Song: Vaidehi Raman (listen)
Singer: S Janaki
Composer: Ilayaraja
Movie: Pagal Nilavu

This is a song in raga Kalyani (which i hear is Ilayaraja's favourite raga). But then .. the song has a lot of other ragas in it ... and there seems to be a deep conneciton between all the ragas used in the song. The fundaes are clearly explained in this post (on some other blog) that I found. So next read this

Fundaes on the song

Now listen to the song again ... and enjoy ...
