What is important to the song? He who understands is wise; Buriyathavan
Poet vairamuthu spoke at the music launch event of the film Unread Pages on whether music or lyrics are important for a song.
Ilaiyaraaja, Vairamuthu
Musician ilayaraja recently argued in court claiming that the music composer owns the full rights to the song. In that case, the court questioned that if there is no lyrics, then there is no song, then what happens if the lyricist also claims the rights to the song like you. After this, the discussion about who owns the song was also taking place on social media.

Lyricist vairamuthu spoke about this issue while attending the music launch of the film Unread Pages. For his role in it, ilayaraja has cut his nose and talked. In it, he explained how important language is to the song. Vairamuthu's retaliatory speech is currently going viral on the internet.

He said: “Is music big in a song? language overload is being talked about as a major problem. No doubt about it, as big as music is, so big is language. If both come together, it is called a song. Sometimes language is superior to music and sometimes music is superior to language. He who understands this is wise, and he who does not is ignorant.
Vairamuthu reply to Ilaiyaraaja
Why is a baby named after birth? Their lives depend on their names. Their right depends on them. Name is patta, name is bond, name is property, name is Aadhaar, only if you have that you can be yourself in India. Is naming a song music? Is it a language? vairamuthu questioned that, language gave the name to the song 'Balrandu um bhati maram bola', vairamuthu said that language gave the name to the songs like 'Sparrow gave a kiss and won the cupid's dance', but it was music that added beauty to it.
He continued, humming a song and asking someone to sing it? They will tell you to sing small wishes. vairamuthu said, "The name of the song is given by the language, and if the music respects the language and the language respects the music, then art will be successful."
