Hello Everyone We were recently talking about the movie, dasara bullodu, which was made quite late in terms of G's career. I think, from this movie and from Prem Nagar, which was also released around the same point, how the quality of songs, in my opinion at least, declined a bit. Somehow, I always thought that these two movies, although popular, and with rather enjoyable songs, symbolized the decline in writing and language that came with the 1970's. I think the trend has now hit, in the 1990's, an all time low, but movies from that time period, the 1970's all demonstrated a lack of the high quality of words. By this I mean, that previously, the music was made of elegantly crafted telugu poetry, while the later music was written in very average, everyday words. I don't know if anyone else has been so bothered by this as me, but debate on this topic is rather important because it sort of expressed different eras of G's music.
