I am still shaking my head with disbelief. Dailamo from Dishum is supposed to be a great big superhit song. Apparently it used to constantly play on radio mirchi. A google search for Dailamo took me to many websites praising the song to the skies. I had to find out for myself what all the hype was about, and I made the mistake of listening to the song.
It was terrible! I agree, the tune is catchy, but I couldnt stand any of the vocals. This is what I HATE -
* Words that do not have any meaning (Dailamo?????) It shows an utter lack of imagination
* Thamizh is a beautiful language - why kill it by pronouncing it with a western accent?
* Kaalaleke????? The lyricist could not think of a proper word to use in the beginning of the song, so he takes a real thamizh word and distorts it to fit the tune
* The weird suggestive ooohh aaahhh noises the male singer makes through the song
There are many bad songs. What upsets me with this song is the fact that it is such a big hit in India, and I do not get it at all. It scares me because my reaction implies one of two things - either i am too old fashioned, unwilling to change with the times, or people in Thamizhnadu have changed so much, become so westernized, and become so much more non-conservative. Where does that leave me?

ps. accidentally wrote same comment for hte other post.
What are you talking about ? That song is my most favorite right now. And songs like this came out years ago with ' Hello Doctor' and all. We cant have every tamil song written with the beauty of narumugaye ?? Listen to Dailamo once more and you WILL like it. Kalailiki is my fav part btw. The other words about Bin Laden and Aiadmk are very funny. The expressions of the singers are awesome
How can u say that? Your niece lovs this song and when she sings it with her English accent,it sounds cuter!!! U do need to see the video ,listen to it once more and u'll love it.We need songs like this to dance to!! ALl the songs in this movie are amazing...btw,have u listened to Barabara bamsibara...pls listen to it,same movie,great song!!
ok ok....i know i am a dinosaur. Ofcourse, when J sings dailamo with her oo aahh is sound effects, it is too cute...but i maintain my stand - i cant stand the song!
How How How ! And Lazy Akka . I love the song Kittai Neringi Vaadi also . ESPECIALLY the part where Sukhwinder Singh says ' chocolate color kaari' . It's awesome !!!!!
And Chicago Akka. How can you NOT still like Dailamo.
its baby cousins favvvvvvvvv song. i couldn't stand it too until the song just bloody grew on me
This song is one of the favorite numbers in the PUBS in Singapore and i really feel proud of it when i see everyone dancing and enjoying it eventhough they cant understand tamil and its lyrics
there is no such word called ''Dailamo''
i think it is ''dilemma'' mispronounced by the singer
dilemma - A situation that requires a choice between options that are or seem equally unfavorable or mutually exclusive.
dilemma means it is a problem offering at least two solutions or possibilities, of which none are practically acceptable
" Thamizh is a beautiful language "-since when?!
"'THAMIZH is a beautiful language'-since when?!" u will know thamizh is beautiful when you learn real tamizh fully.
yes, you're uptight. Check out "Ooo eee ooo ah ah ting tang walla walla bing bang"
it was FUN, that's all.
Sis/bro.. I'm about to write a blog.. are you getting adsense now? What u hv done to display ur blog in google page.. plz tell me

I think the song is very creative. Listen to this Rap shit we listen to here in the USA 🇺🇸 Dailey. I 👍 it. If you don't like it 🤷 😒 don't listen.
