This is why kolaveri....

For quite a few months now its going on kolaveri.... kolaveri.... even though the hype is almost died now... in my opinion the song has definitely highlighted the power of Internet over conventional mediums. without any other effort, it ruled just because of Internet.

Also there are few things I like about the song,
Firstly it has an amateur touch, seniors like Javed Akhtar criticized it but I think this so called lack of quality became biggest plus point for the song.

This song reminds me of the "Bodhi tree " album songs like "Sutta " and "Danda ". If not for the language used, those songs would have got great following had you tube been present in those days.  I am sure many especially those who spent time in hostels would agree .

Next thing is that the singer is not like a professional one. And still it's a hit. This gives a lot of hope for many bathroom singers of course like me  :-) it proves that it need not be very professional to top the charts.

Another point I observed is that the song tops in the favorite list of my daughter too. She is just over 20 months old. Of course there are other songs like dhinka chika... Sheela and Chameli for she enjoys dancing.
But this kolaveri still remains her first choice.  I tried to understand why and realized that this is the only song around apart from her regular rhymes that she can sing along and dance at the same time :-)
Sooooooo simple lyrics.

So much for a single song!
