Song - Ennai Thaalaatta Varuvaala

This is my first attempt at singing a full length karaoke song. It is Ennai Thaalaatta Varuvaala from the movie Kaadhalukku Mariyaadhai, one of my all time favorites. I just love the interludes in this song; only the great Ilayaraja can give such beautiful music even in between stanzas. I say this because there was a time when the interlude music in Tamil film songs was rather simple and the very same music was repeated after each stanza. Ilayaraja sir came and changed all that and you know, when a composer has enjoyed composing a song, it really shows in the tune. Hope I can sing more of his melodies.

Song - Pani Vizhum Malarvanam

The third and last post for today: a couple of lines from the song Pani Vizhum Malarvanam. For the uninitiated the movie is Ninaivellam Nithya. The original song was sung by S. P. B. in Ilayaraja's music. S. P. B.'s songs give me a shiver when I think I attempted to sing them.  But like I said in one of the earlier posts I have to keep recording and posting. So anyway, here it is.

Song - Oru Chiri Kandal - Karaoke

My first attempt at singing karaoke. This is the initial part of the song Oru Chiri Kandal from the movie Ponmudi Puzhayorathu. Music by the great Ilayaraja and originally sung by Vijay Yesudas and Manjari. I found that singing to the sound of instruments, especially the syncing part is rather tough. :-). I have sung this same song earlier without the music and it felt easier at that time.

Song - Raja Raja Chozhan

One more for the day - the song Raja Raja Chozhan from Rettai Vaal Kuruvi. Composed by the great Ilayaraja, the original song was sung by K. J. Yesudas. I love the guitar bits and bass runs from this song, Of course you won't find these in my silent background version below. ;-).

Song - Oru Chiri Kandal

Originally an excellent song by Ilayaraja in the movie Ponmudi Puzhayorathu. I have used the Ambient Voices effect from GarageBand to bring in the echo...
