One song knows your life...


What happens when you hear a song for the first time....written by some lyricist, who definitely didnt know how you felt, but still managed to, by some weird way of the world, hit the bull's eye?


You hear those lines...the tune recedes to the background...poetic license with normal words giving life to your frozen feelings...

You want to ignore the striking resemblance to ur life...but fr how long can you hold out? It gets to you...and you play that song over and over again... You know that song will remain with you forever...at least on ur ipod playlist...

Things'll change...this song may be forgotten among that list of thousands...but another chance encounter on a shuffled playlist, will bring it all back...in full force...

This is my song: Malai Neram
from Aayirathil Oruvan

Pseudo-nerd switched on her laptop just to put this down...
