Yuvan Shankar Raja’s ‘Bakkunu Suthureney Aiyo Aiyayo’ from ‘Conjuring Kannappan’ pairs Vignesh Ramakrishna’s urgent wordplay with frenetic electronic production. The track mirrors a video game’s unpredictable energy through rapid tempo shifts and distorted vocal effects.
Vignesh Ramakrishna frames life changes using gaming metaphors. Lyrics transition a ‘confused loser’ into a ‘pro gamer’, warning against ‘playing singles with a ghost’ to describe risky solo battles in dark circumstances.
Bakkunnu SuthurenaeI’m spinning around in shock.
Aiyo HaiyaiyoOh, oh no.
Takkunnu ThikkurenaeI’m suddenly stuttering.
