To fully understand the aspirations of isaiyarangam, we must first define what music is. Music is any pleasing sound that reaches the soul. The classical format of South Asian music, Carnatic, is a pleasing sound but does not reach the souls of many.
Grammar was born through the need for structure within the literature. As such, the rules that govern Carnatic music can seem overwhelming to those who are new to the art form. How can one who doesn’t understand Auvaiyar or Bharathi attempt to read Kamban or Elango? Carnatic music is the natural evolution of folk music. From folk music to pan, to Carnatic, music has become more and more refined, and in turn richer and richer. The kitchen format, which Carnatic music is presented, is too complicated for a new listener to understand, and consequently, appreciate.

As soon as the tune reaches your ears, it creates a yearning to want to hear and know more. Even without accompaniment, the melody itself is powerful enough to stand on its own.
The lyrics should provoke thought. There should be the use of simple words, put together to form deep and powerful implications.
The singer should have perfect pitch and sense of rhythm. The singer should have the skill to travel from high to low and using gamakka when appropriate.
A song that may not excel in tune, lyrics or voice but with all factors combined and with the addition of background music & recording technique etc..
