It is composer D Imman’s birthday today. As a tribute to him, here’s a song that stands out among his many peppy, popular ones like ‘Oodha Coloru Ribbon’, Sollitaley Ava Kaadhala’ and others.
‘Koodamela Koodavechi’ is a slow yet lively song, with many instruments that don’t drain out when the vocals begin. Lyrics by Yugabharathi are nothing heavy, they are very matter of fact for a romantic song. Two people want to spend time together, and tell each other why. The music builds up here and there, only to quickly lighten things up later, like the romance that Vijay Sethupathi and Aishwarya Rajesh have in the song, and like most people have in their lives. It’s a song for any time in the day.
