Otha sollaala


One of the latest sooper dooper hit on the national award winning movie…A stylish folk as well a standard maintained which really haunted my heart with nice beats. I love this song to dance even :D After Raja, G.V Prakash produce these kinda tunes , the healthy gesture on folk songs. I couldn’t find a track, made a loop on my own and tried it…tremolo on rhythm pushed me to makeup those two places :D .I couldn’t resist doing this song when I found a bit track…here it is…

ilamaiyenum poongaatru

Evergreen melody of spb and Raja ,the song which liked by all music lovers even now.Beautiful composition on wonderful lyrics of kannadasan, but totally spoiled by the dramatic scene in the film.These legends can sue Mr.Sasi the director ,for his irresponsible framing of the scene for this wonderful song.Another trial n error song from me…

Ennai Konjam Maatri


A catchy tune of Harris which certainly have the similarities of English songs in which i can have some exposure of western style.so i welcome harris to do more similar tunes like this :P I particularly tried this song with a bit modulation extra to give it a punch of the landing notes.Certainly i did most of part on my own and i find there is a vast difference. Let me know how you feel about it.

Bagon mein chale aao



One of the haunting song from the movie Anamika with two great actors Sanjeev kumar and Jaya badhuri…After watching the way she acted in that song…made me sing atonce … what a fantastic soothing singing by the legend lata mangeshkar on the beautiful composition by RD Burman.Tried my attempt…and the track music allowed me to attend the lines only once…Very much disappointed with the track.but still wish to sing it on the flow…Please forgive my diction errors.

Song: Bagon mein chale
Movie: Anamika (1973)
Music: RD Burman
Lyricist : Majrooh Sultanpuri (View Lyrics)
Originally sung by : Lata mangeshkar
Cover : Sowmya

baaho mein chale aao, hum se sanam kyaa paradaa
Come into my arms; what curtain separates you from me, darling?

ye aaj kaa naheen milan ye sang hain umar bhar kaa
This meeting is not only of today; this union is for our whole lives.

chale hee jaanaa hai, najar churaa ke yoo
I must go only after meeting your glance like so

fir thaamee thee, saajan tum ne meree kalaaee kyoo?
Darling, why then did you catch my wrist to hold me back?

kisee ko apanaa banaa ke chhod de
To leave someone after making them your own...

ayesaa koee naheen karataa
No one does something like that.

kabhee kabhee kuchh to, kaho piyaa hum se
From time to time, just say something to me, beloved

ye, kam se kam aaj to khul ke milo jaraa hum se
say? this: at the very least, meet me out in the open today

hai raat apanee, jo tum ho apane
the night is mine, if you are mine...

kisee kaa fir, humei dar kyaa?
whom then do we fear?

Kuch na kaho


The slow tune is once again delightfully intertwined with the R.D. Burman touch in a violin orchestrated tune that is a must listen to put it lightly. Lata Mangeshkar out do all of them in a tune where she sounds like she has sung twenty years prior to the original release of the album. Her rendition reaches the heights that Javed Akhtar has hoped for when penning the album, clearly.Just had a thought to sing this number purely on lata ji’s voice magic on this song even at her old age.

Yaar Veetil Roja



Craze for long years to cover this song. One of the most fabulous composition of raja from the movie idhayakoyil. The most enchanting songs of llayaraja happened with these films where the hero had taken the role as a singer.Another melody from the same movie “paatu thalaivan”.No idea how the same craze continue for me to render those songs even now without even a second thought arises. Purely classic…
Another trial n error song from me…couldn’t stop myself asking track from Gopi shanmugam after listened to his awesome singing on this song. Just tried my level with the bass voice.

Uravugal thodarkathi


All time ever green composition from maestro ilayaraja ,lyrics awesomely penned by Gangai amaran, Not an apt song for that situation in that movie aval appdithaan, sung by the villian to the heroine lol…Always this song made me think about the relationship and I could very well remember Antony rabbinson’s quote – Some of the biggest challenges in relationships come from the fact that most people enter a relationship in order to get something. They’re trying to find someone who’s going to make them feel good. In reality, the only way a relationship will last is if you see your relationship as a place that you go to give, and not a place that you go to take.

And some optimistic thoughts arouses when I listen to these lyrics,When one door closes another door opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us.
I always apply these aah aah part when I listen to this song, the same I tried…may give some diff flv…
