i think mosa mosa means rapid/good growth.. for laziness they say it as masa masa-nu na.. I have heard ppl telling nellu, nalla mosa mosa-nu varanthirukku.. (crops have grown really well).. I'm not sure.. But sure abt masa masa.. The same example which vithur anna said.. masa masa-nu nikkathey.. My amma used to tell this to me.. :-)

Since there is a lot going on about Vaali, would like to mention something more on the areas where he let ARR. Munbe Va : I cant forgive him for writing those fillers Rango.. Rangoli.. kolangal nee pottai.. it was a joke.. if you have a software that could edit the words and listen to the song, munbe va will be in the top league of his all time best. coming back to Marudhani, probably deepali is a character in the movie.. but wasnt there a better way of incorporating that name. A lyricist of Vaali's caliber can do much beter than that. Vaali is a very senior writer and its hard for composers to ask him to rewrite something. I happened to listen to IR's recording for a Fazil' movie. The song if am right is Kaatril varum geethame... Vaali is a genius and comes up with impromptu lyrics for the song, but the first version is awful.. Even IR requests vaali in a very subdued tone and tells him anna, can you change this to something Am sure ARR has the same challenges too... Vaali is still the best but that doesnt make him right all the time. More than once his lines have been more of a meaningful dialogue than an elegant song. Lets call a spade a spade.

i thought some lines in munbe vaa and marudhaani were fantastic. in munbe vaa: munbe (a very unusual word, but made all the difference to the song) nilavidam vadakai vaangi... poo vaithai (excellent word play here) in marudhaani: marudhaani vizhiyil yaen? (this line is fantastic) saranams r class lets not forget mayilirage. i believe the lyrics amazingly suited the tune and even uplifted it. as a whole, vaali is an amazing lyricist and he reserves his best for ARR. i think ARR should keep requesting vaali for better and better lyrics during their sits together (vaali adores ARR and so no matter how much arr requests from vaali, he will comply, arr is just too nice) lets be happy that arr-vaali combo has given some of the best melodies in recent times starting with thotaal poo malarum (hehe) to marudhaani. --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, badrie [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Since there is a lot going on about Vaali, would like to mention something more on the areas where he let ARR.

Re: [arr] Re: Sakarakatti: awesome songs, but lyrics a big let down
There are several songs of ARR in which video added to the beauty of songs. Video rather explained the real scenario and give a perspective to the song. I remember the disappointment members had felt in this list listening to the Rukhi Sukhi Roti of Nayakan. It sounded so rough, so unpolished, so raw - almost bare, naked, ugly - in the first hearings. but then the video came and Shankar's magic rode the head of all music lovers and the the song instantly became likeable. RDB's Luka Chhupi also sounded so overly emotive with bad voices of both Lata and ARR. but then the video came and it touched everybody's heart in an instant. Eyes went wet listening to it, seeing it. Lata's voice sounded 100% perfectly appropriate for an old, grieving mother. So, may be Elay is also in that genre that a video might explain the exact scene sequence in which the song would appear appropriate and perfect. Lyrics wise, this song already appears a visionary song, a manifesto for the new-age youth, a message song. previously, I liked this social awareness part in Mehboob's lyrics. He always put something referring to the current day-to-day real life and gave some message. I liked that effect very much, say, as in Urvashi's last paragraph. bhalai aurato ki kranti ke bina nahin hogi, etc. Seems this lyricist is furthering what Mehboob had started. All praises to the two, and to ARR for bringing such lyrics. -- V On 7/19/2008 2:32 PM India Time, _Srini_ wrote: I too feel the Elay lyrics are quite nice..
