Eppadi enga thalaivara (????) pathi thappa sollalaam???????
Btw...absolutely loved the songs. :-)
As for quotes,here is one from Prof.Sambamurthy's treatise on South Indian Music - Vol.I
The essential difference between poetry and music is that the former gives you pleasure after understanding while the latter pleasures you on mere listening.
And another from Shaskespeare,mentioned in the same book,
The man who hath no music in himself
Or who is not moved by the concord of sweet music
Let no such man be trusted.
Maybe a little harsh,but Shaskespeare says it and so be it.

good songs all of em :)
