"its a whole diff story if that person is simply finding simple faults in ARR,then for them even both song beein based on same raga is already inspired! shockingly,i dun see u around when HJ or others simply direct lifts from ARR...y???? " We are getting nowhere with this kind of accusations, but still I have to point out that you are no different from others when you find "simple faults" with HJ's numbers while the whole world is enjoying them (e.g. kumari is a copy of ennuyir thozhiye etc etc). One should be able to write freely in this forum without the likes of you screaming at the slightest hint of similarity of one song with another. Just as something which seems like a subtle inspiration to me seems original to you, in the same manner, something which you think is a copy might seem only vaguely reminiscent of the original to me. These are all just opinions. Take it easy. For the record, it was me who pointed out that Uyirin uyirE is inspired from the Desert Rose number by Sting and Cheb Mami. Why didn't you scream then? It works both ways, this accusation.
