You might attribute my liking of Kuthu songs to Middle age crisis.
You might attribute my on-stage dancing last weekend for “Daddy Mummy” from Villu,to the couple of gray hairs that I found while brushing …… Wonder what the reason was for the elders, aged 60-70 who enjoyed our show and didn’t leave till the ending of all the kuthu songs. In a survey, apparently,mostly the youth wanted to dance to Kuthu songs and people aged 30-40 claim they are forced to watch& dance to kuthu songs. I think Udith Narayan’s voice gives a special touch to it. No wonder I was dancing back stage for “Raangi Rangamma” in the recent Tamil Light Music Event I was MCing. I can listen to Shankara Bharanam, Roja, Kaminey,Taal,Nakku Mukka,Kurai Ondrum Illai…in that order. There are lot more to appreciate in Kuthu songs, if one is broad minded enough.
The female version…IMO, an amazing range !! I wish my voice could go to that pitch. Considering the ever famous “ Nakku Mukka“,I wonder how the dancers’ limbs are still intact. There is a beat to most of them as long as you don’t worry about the lyrics. I think Kuthu is a genre that dancers will appreciate more than Musicians. Whew!! I am so happy that I am not one of the Pundits. The pundits were aghast, started retracting into their shells and blogs, spewing venom at Vijay Anthony, organizing meets to bring sanity back to music. Last year, the mega “ Nakku Mukka” became a hit even before the movie got released. The face had a scorn, the head was bleeding but the Public was applauding. What they did not realize was that they were banging to a beat. Then the ultimate “ Manmadha Rasa” happened and the Pundits started banging their heads. I think the Carnatic Pandits, the Carnatic wanna-be Pundits and the Pundits who are sophisticated and the ones who think they are sophisticated were listening up to this point, with just a slight shake of their head and controlling the urge to tap their feet and dance. The first real Kuthu song to catch my attention was “ Vaadi Vaadi Naatu Kattai”, to which Neha & Prabhu Deva had danced. Lot of music directors started sprouting, then the present day Kuthu happened. We started tapping our feet to “ Saidapeta Ranipeta Petta Rap“. Then, Rahman happened …and life changed forever. It was a slow transformation.In the 80s, when Ilayaraja ruled southern Music, no one had heard of Kuthus and the closest one could get was “ Chinna Rasave chiterumbu unna kadikudha” in the early 90s. įor the novice, Kuthu is supposedly a derivation from folk songs and has become a prominent fixture in almost all the Tamil movies. If you don’t know Tamil or have never listened to Tamil Movie Songs, please skip reading the post.Ī blog about the Kuthu song “Banaras Pattu” from Praveen prompted me to write this post.īefore proceeding any further, let me be clear.I am not exactly a kuthu fan, but I am also not the one who goes, “Chi.Chi…Kuthu.a? Enna Kandravi”, loosely translated to “Kuthu? A pain in the ears!! ”.
