Is Ilayaraaja an E.T.?

Topic started by UFO (@ 65.59.9.102) on Wed Mar 6 01:25:37 EST 2002.

One song's preludes and interludes bewilders me to this day. There has not a day in the last 23 years that this song has not come in my mind. To tell you what I feel about it. The prelude (leave aside those equally intriguing interludes) alone knocks out Bach's Tocatto and Fugue in D Minor (which is a piece that got me attracted to IR's music in the first place. I was always a baching before that.) in every facet of impossibility of creating such dizzy music! That is why at times I think IR is probably an ET! Anyone feels like expressing some similar feelings about IR (I tell you I can't think of any other human being as E.T. as IR. Sorry, ARR you don't qualify. KR and YSR? In due course, we will know!) let us freak out here, what do ya all say, folks?

  What UFO said was IR is Extra-ordinarily Talented. That's all. Many people like me agreed.
  
  It has become a fashion for non-tamilians to say that "ARR is a genius" etc etc.Even Writer Sujatha said that in an interview with "Graha Shoba" the new monthly in Tamil form the Woman's era group. That statment was promply and technically repulsed by somebody( referthe latest March issue).
  
  If ARR can be called a genius, can't even be entiiled for ET(Extra-Ordinarily Talented). In my opinion these titles, have to exchanged, mutually between TR and ARR.

  Unmaiyile ketkkiren thappaa ninaikaatheenga, neenga thanni podaatha neram ethum undo? Or is it eppothum cocaine/grass, intha maathiri ethuvathu undaa?
  
  You start of thinking of doing service but end up doing disservice to Ilayaraja. Or is that the real intention? :)

  There are some songs which have just taken me out of the world...To name a few
  
  
  * Kanna Varuvaaya
  * Mandhiram Edhu Mandhiram
  * RaamaNaamam (Ragavendra)
  * Thoodhu Selvadhaaradi
  * Thoorathil Naan Kanda Un Mugam
  * Sondham Endru Sonnavale
  
  
  Those are KILLER ...
  Guys, we (as a nation) never respected or never have given due appreciation to any artist/leader when he/she is alive....The trend continues....
