" Raja's Music is comparable to a Mother Divine".

" Rahman's music is like a wife Sensuous & Raja's is comparable to a Mother Divine."

People write loads about Rahman being the best and sleep off listening to "Kanne kalaimane".
People talk about Rahman's peppy numbers and still find no song comparable to "Raja Raajadhi Rajan Indha Raja".

People are Rahman's fans but Raja's addicts.

  Rahman has built a fan base but Raja has built a kingdom.
Ilayaraja's music is synonymous to C programming.You cannot survive without it. Rahman's music is mesmerising but Raja's is more meaningful.

 "Rahman's music is like a wife Sensuous. 
Raja's is comparable to a Mother Divine."
Here is my list of 10 favourite Raja songs.
    1.Thenpandi Seemayile-Nayagan
    2.Kanne Kalaimane-Moondram Pirai 
    3.Mannil Indha-Keladi Kanmani
    4.Idhu Oru Pon Maalai-Nizhalgal
    5.En Iniya Pon Nilave-Moodupani
    6.Raja Raajadhi Rajan-Agni Natchathiram
   7.Kaatu Kuyilu-Thalapathy
    8.Inji Idupalagi-Devar Magan
    9.Kanmani Anbodu-Guna
    10.Amma endru-Mannan

💞🎼 GOD & PHILOSOPHER OF MUSIC : ISAIGNANI ILAYARAJA 🎼💞

Ilayaraja - The King Of Music  Born and brought up in an obscure village near Kambam in Southern Tamil Nadu, Ilayaraja became the first Asian to score a symphony for the London Philharmonic Orchestra, besides scoring over 1000 feature films in a period of 43 years. Raja, as he is popularly known and affectionately called, comes from a family of musicians. His mother, a huge repository of Tamil folk songs, seems to be a very strong influence in his music. He learned to play the harmonium, the typical musical instrument used in street performances. The team of the brothers, the eldest being Pavalar Varadharajan, a poet, worked as a group of musicians traveling across the state, accompanying theater artists. Raja picked up most of his acumen for audience tastes during this period. In 1969, Raja migrated to the city of Madras, the Southern Movie capital, when he was 29 years old, looking for a break into music making for the public. He studied under Dhanraj Master, playing the ...

Shri Isaignani illayaraja was and is still a Musical genius of this World

All three of them are great but if I have to rank I would rank them in the following order. 1) Isaignani Illayaraja 2) ARR 3) RD Burman Illayaraja was and is still a genius. To compose 1000 movie above and make the entire Bharat(Hindustan / India) dance to his tunes is by no means an easy achievement. There was a time in south India where producers would be literally queuing outside his home and the movie starts with the song sung by him. He was the hero of every film. I have seen people cry when the BGM starts. It brings out the emotion in the scene. He can still churn out the songs that he used to in the 80s and 90s. But he is a like a saint now. Like all great artists, he doesn’t do the same things over and over. He experiments and does what satisfies him the most. It is also a pity that he didn’t go pan-India. Probably because he was content and probably because he didn’t have to considering how busy he was during those days (sometimes 10 films a month and a recording every...

  Swappnam - a Maestro Ilaiyaraaja Musical treat “Swappnam – the title is so vast. It encompasses all emotions – that of children, the aged, romance, the aspirations, everything. Thiruvembavai, Thevaram, Shiva leela conceived like the Raasleela, Shivoham, Eppovaruvaro, all the pieces are very close to my heart” – Maestro Ilaiyaraaja.🎹🎶🎵💕🎼💞🎸🎻🥁🎺🎷🎶🎵📯💕🎼 True to his words, Swappnam was really an experience, a musical experience. This reminded me of the lines from the book “The Tao of Physics” by Fritjof Capra and I’m quoting the physicist’s experience for the pleasure of your reading. “Five years ago, I had a beautiful experience which set me on a road that has led to the writing of this book. I was sitting by the ocean one late summer afternoon, watching the waves rolling in and feeling the rhythm of my breathing, when I suddenly became aware of my whole environment as being engaged in a gigantic cosmic dance. Being a physicist, I knew that the sand, rocks, water, and a...
