Every time I wish to connect with my ‘roots’ (i.e. Tamil music) where popular music is concerned, I always start with this song..
If you ask me what the meaning of the song is, I would tell you very plainly that I have no clue. I just find it beautiful. I haven’t cared to watch or interpret the video.
What is also amazing is that this song is only 1 minute and 47 songs long. That’s a good 1 min shorter than the average song. And every time I listen to it, I wonder why the song wasn’t longer. Wouldn’t it have been better?
When I did this routine of listening->enjoying->complaining about it being too short, I thought of all the songs that make me wonder why they didn’t make it shorter! And I realized that the makers of the song were extremely smart. They created a beautiful piece that left you wanting for more..
Wouldn’t it be amazing if we were the kind of people that always left people wishing they spent more time with us? Or if we provided services that left people wondering why we didn’t do more?
