But surprisingly, it turns out that my preference is quite independent of the length of the song! Anyway, all time favourites short songs include: Indhiraiyo He also falls below MS Viswanathan, but that’s not surprising.įor quite a while, I was convinced I liked shorter songs. It’s interesting that AR Rahman falls below Harris Jayaraj and Deva. AM Raja follows, and then the great Ilayaraja. My all-time favourite music director is G Ramanathan, thanks to Uthama Puthiran, Ambikapathy, Madurai Veeran, etc. I didn’t need the analysis to tell me that, though.
MAHANADHI BHARATHIYAR KAVITHAI MOVIE
My all-time favourite movie (for songs) is Vaidhegi Kaathirundhaal. My top movies list for instance, has only one movie from the 2000s, 2 from the 90s, 5 from the 80s, 1 from the 60s and 1 from the 50s. Since I rated the songs, I could also analyse my preferences. However, Deva seems to make longer songs than usual for a 1990s director (5.5 minutes), while Devi Sri Prasad makes shorter songs for a 200os director (4.3 minutes). Today, Ramesh Vinayagam‘s compositions are 5.5 minutes. While KV Mahadevan‘s songs lasted 4 minutes, Ilayaraja‘s songs lasted 4.5 minutes, and AR Rahman‘s songs last 5 minutes. Thiruvilaiyadal and Vanjikkottai Vaaliban have among the longest songs on average, for example.Īs a corollary, newer music directors make longer songs.
Each decade adds about 14 seconds to the length of a song.īut some of the old movies have pretty long songs. On average, a song in the 60s was 4 minutes. The trends are around the length of a typical film song are interesting. Since I like Tamil songs and statistics so much, I did some analysis on the ~1,400 Tamil songs I’d listened to in 2006.
