Why this 'kolaveri di' crossing the international chart buster!
This come to me utter surprise! My boy who always love bollywood, and fan of Lady Gaga, is crooning something,even while sleeping,.. so I decided that he
has fallen to illness called 'love'. But he vehemently denied this, than show this Youtube video, Where "Dhanush', RajiniKanth son-in- law, who is also a actor himself, crone a song for the forthcoming picture '3' .
The video, which was released on November 16 by Sony Music, already has 3 million hits and counting. The song has (despite its critics claiming to be a 'flop song') already gone Mass hysteria on YouTube and social networking sites, becoming one of the top trending topics on Twitter.
Even 'Big B' has already congratulated him. Some you tube video has the Japanese fans also dancing for this tune...
There is another estimate that this song grossed 4 millions but if you go search in youtube search panel for the song why this kolaveri..you will find the exact hits there.You tube has freezed the hits no at 2,783,922 .They will release it in phased manner.

Re: Why this 'kolaveri di' crossing the international chart buster!
Before this recording, Dhanush, himself wrote some English words whatever come in to mind, then mix it with .'kolaveri di' words, he has a combination of 'Tanglish'(Mixing Tamil with English)..except 'kolaveri di' all other words are english words misspelled by typical 'Tamil medium ' Students admitted in to 'colleges in Tamil Nadu. So It is first hit among themselves.
This typical Tamil students are mostly from rural areas where they studied in panchayats schools.
when they come to 'metro' to pursue the higher study. utter shock awaited them, to mingling with students who are fluent in english, they felt inferiority complex.. so they attempt whatever imagination come to them.. one of the by products is 'Tanglish'
Chennai colleges are full of them.. The girls who befriend them are for sympathy , but the boys mistook for love, and live in some dream world, when the semester ended, and the goodbye time come, they felt rage in their minds, so 'kolaveri' is the by- products.. the side walls of metro trains are full of such poems...
Dhanush' simply mirrored them.. But I am not understanding why Americans as well as Canadians and Japanese are crooning the songs as well Google statistics give, even in china, Dhanush has fans watching the Video..that is incredible..

Re: Why this 'kolaveri di' crossing the international chart buster!
Hi Krow,
thanks for embedding the video
For thus who don't like Dhanush 's song, he himself told, media , that he is not a great singer,
One noted singer said this, 'his voice is broken, but here the situation exactly demanded the same, so the combination of 'broken voice with broken heart, rendering the beat in slow, and the meaning of main title word,' why this muderous rage?'--
It reflect, every dejected lover in the street,.even without knowing full meaning, they attract to this song.. So this song doesnot belong to Tamil neither it is Indian.. it is universal...whether it is American, Espano or Mexican or Japanese. they understand it,

vaithy came close, cant even begin to explain the brilliance of this song and video lol, uh, its not because he is Rajnikanth's son or whatever nobody cares or knows lol, or hype or something, stuff that goes viral liek this or that nobody can cross it thing... it happens because the time for that idea has come, and such outrageous fame is inevitable then, it will just keep growing for a short time... this is so addictive watched it like 20 times back to back, cudnt stop... "god Im dying now, she is happy howwu" lol hmm has a whole ton of other funny things including like 10 different styles of the infamous indian head bob
also too many people are obsessed with how perfect the instrumentation, the voice and the technicalities of the song is, this video is proof that some music can just focus more on the song writing and composition aspect, and still outshine technically brilliant music

well, these white guys also make fun of us, and call us brownies and other nasty stuff. like we laugh at the s#itstorm that is nicki minaj/gaga/hilton.
dont take the high no. of hits as a good sign. next time an indian gets attacked in Australia, this song will be played in the background.

what music?
tl;dr : song is not worth the attention it is receiving right now.
Re: Why this 'kolaveri di' crossing the international chart buster!
Actually, it is not the song, but the critics, and music purists, drove the song popularity in the initial stage..
here what the other peoples,(definately not idiotic types, says:
Quote:
" Kolaveri di...definitely the sleeper song blockbuster of the year!!! Rock on Dhanush!!!," tweeted Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar.
Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan tweeted: "Just heard #Kolaveri after much talk on it... it's so original and catchy...congrats Dhanush and Aishwarya (Rajni's daughter).. love"
The composer of the song, 18-year-old Anirudh, is unable to explain the phenomenon it has become, saying: "It's probably because of the funny, broken English and some amount of musicality, but I cannot really explain beyond a point."
"Such is the effect of the song that strangely my two-and-a-half-month-old son slept listening to 'Kolaveri Di'," said Janice Goveas, a Mumbai-based professional said.
Dhanush him self said he has bad voice
Quote:
We just made a humble song with simple lyrics with a bad voice, which is mine. We wanted the song to sound as if a drunkard was singing it and we just recorded it. I had a feeling that it would become a hit with the youngsters of Tamil Nadu but never had I imagined that it would become such a global rage.
