Some songs don’t just play, they pull you in. I’ve had this one on repeat for days, and it still hits perfectly every time. It might not be an amazing song overall, but there’s this one section that’s just too good to ignore.
It’s Oorum Blood from Dude. I’ve added the song below, jump to 1:52 or press the star button in the player and you’ll see exactly what I mean.

Lyrics that will hold you by the collar
Unna thaana paathuka naa inga kaathiruken…
I am waiting here just to look at you, with my heart longing.
There's something so beautifully vulnerable about waiting just to see someone.
Una paakka vaanatha thaandiyum vandhu en kaadhala kaamipen...
To see you, I’d even cross the skies, I’d shout out my love for you loud and proud!
Not at all exaggerated when you're in love. The kind of love that refuses to be quiet and where people would even cross the skies to see someone.
Oru alai ava, kalai ava, azhagiya nilavava…
She is a wave, an art, a beautiful moon.
And isn't that how love feels sometimes? :P
Nizhalilum joliikira, nirantha oli ava.
Even in the shadow, she shines.
Some people carry their own light. Some people *are* the light.
Sari ava thavarava… sirikura siripukku avathaan kaaranamaa?
Is she right or wrong? Is she the reason for my smile?
The same person who confuses you, annoys you, and turns your world upside down…
…is also the one who makes you smile without permission.
Its messy and poetic and borderline dramatic but this is exactly what real emotions feel like when they're unfiltered. Such a great song to vibe to.
Have a great day stranger!
