Why This Kolaveri

Here is a song that has become so viral that it appears that this is arguably the 2nd most popular song in the world now.

While my role in recording this song was that of a coach and sound engineer (effectively assisted by budding sound engineer & my younger daughter Nikki) , this was sung by my niece, nephew & daughter (Prash, Suvi, Sneha respectively). It took them almost 3 hours to complete this song. Kudos to these kids for showing enthusiasm and willingness to belt out this catchy number from yet to release Tamil film "3" starring Dhanush.

I thoroughly enjoyed recording this song and so did the kids enjoyed singing it. We had lots of laughter and fun and I am sure you'll enjoy this as well.

Here we go another song in short succession after my previous post. Looks like I am in mood...or is it this song is so compelling that I was motivated to post another song this quickly; well, either way, this next song from the movie "Then Sindude Vaanam" had some amazing songs composed by lesser known GK Venkatesh & V.Kumar.

This particular song sung by Yesudas was such a wonderful melody that you can definitely include this in your personal evergreen list. A very simple song with minimal instruments primarily made of piano & base rhythm. Infact this movie starring Sivakumar, Kamalahasan & Jayachitra had SP Balasubramanian singing another super hit title song as well.

Yesudas in his nascent voice sings this Valli's song with such magnificence, it really brings back memories of those bygone years... You got to pay attention to Valli's lyrics in this song, woh! just amazing! infact, I would say sensual. Close the door, turn off all other sounds, put your headsets on and enjoy this smooth song.

While this was a good karaoke track, you'll notice that the second BGM is slightly different from the original track and also in few places I had to work with the rhythm which I guess turned out OK in the end.

Sit back, relax and enjoy this wonderful song.

Vaa Vennila Unai Thane

This next song is from the film Mela Thiranthathu Kadavu starring Mohan & Amla. While the story line was very simple this movie primarily ran for the background score including the amazing songs that were composed by MS Viswanathan & Illayaraja. Yes, you heard it right, this movie's music was jointly scored by the "Mellisai Mannan" & "Isainyani". It's very rare in the film industry to see 2 champions in their own right come together and work together. All the songs in this movie were super hit.

This particular song was penned by Gangai Amaran, one of the many songs in which he excelled. SP Balasubramanian's smooth voice in this song kept it on the top of the charts for many months. I really like this song both for its rendition and its lyrics and luckily got a good karaoke track as well.

I think my karaoke effort has come out reasonably well, but obviously you are the best judge. But, I am sure you'll enjoy listening to the song as much as I enjoyed singing it.
