GALEER GALEER - DEVATHAI




'galeer galeer' from devathai 1979

i vaguely remember hearing this song in a.i.r. but some songs are like phoenix, they rise from their ashes and haunt their listeners after generations.

one of the reasons why md shyam is remembered even after he stopped composing some 25 yrs.back. songs like these.

it reminds me of another song in the same scale 'vaanamenum veedhiyile', especially the line 'maadhaavai kaettu sollungal' sounds similar to 'sollungalaen vaaradho inbangale'.

sung by s.janaki it is surely mood lifting.

one of the few songs that starts with a rettai kilavi in tfm. i think that only has made this song arise from my buried memories.
