My Carnatic Songs (Fusion and Non-Fusion)

Rare Version from Raja sir’s 300th Film:
In recent years, whenever a song has been sung by Ilayaraja Sir and if the album features the same song being sung by another singer, Raja sir’s version seems to be the most popularly liked one among the majority of the listeners.  
Currently one of the hottest debates going on in Social Networking is about the last track in Prakash Raj’s Trilingual film (Un Samayal Araiyil / Oggarane / Ulavacharu Biriyani) and it’s last track (Track 4 which is Kaatru Veliyil in Tamil sung by Raja sir and Barayada & Gunde Gonthutho in Kannada and Telugu respectively sung by Malayalam Composer and Singer Sharath) as to who has sung better.  In my personal view, Sharath’s rendition sounded very pleasant and there are complicated curves in the opening of the sole charanam which were rendered impeccably. The voice modulations were also outstanding. But when Raja sir sings, a tear or more did drop down to me and I do not know whether I am attaching the emotional attachment with Raja sir or is it due to the feel he genuinely gives to a song. 
Music could be argued as a matter of subjectivity where one form of music need not be enjoyed by some people and one composition may appeal differently to different people.  When Music itself has a strong element of subjectivity, obviously there has to be a wider subjectivity between one composition to another composition and one rendition to another rendition. 
Going a bit scientifically, whenever a composer of the caliber of Ilayaraja Sir sings a song, the amount of the FEEL that’s necessary to a particular composition definitely gets increased as the creator’s knowledge and information about the composition and the creative visualization with which he/she would sing is several times more than the other singers.  
The song of this post is from Ilayaraja Sir’s top 25 blockbuster hit albums of all time (Udhaya Geetham, Tamil, 1984, Raja sir’s 300th Film). But this version is extremely rare as it was released only in select editions of it’s audio cassette.  At the first listening, the rating would be definitely lower for Raja sir’s version as the most popularly heard SPB’s version would be at the back of our mind. However if the feel factor is given consideration, Raja sir’s version may feel better after listening to multiple times and slowly but steadily, Raja sir’s version would start occupying and daunting our minds equivalent to the SPB’s version.
So, let’s listen to this rare version.

Jagajannani : Carnatic Song in ragam Rathipathipriya Feat Shyam Murali

#Kathir has an instant attraction for #Anitha from first sight... It develops into a crush after several interactions with her. He doesn't show that to her, due to his image that he has in the colony and he fights with her every time he meets her. However, he also tries to impress her in his own way. While seeing her playing with small boys in the colony and in few other occasions, his unknown feeling increases for her. 

During the colony celebrations on the day of August 15th, he is watching film with his friends and sister. Anitha comes and sits next to him, not noticing that it is Kathir but his sister (or her colony friend)... She sits so close to him and Kathir is so much disturbed by the physical touch. He can neither enjoy it sitting with her nor move from there. He feels heavenly and falls down like fainting... He doesn't sleep that night and defines it as LOVE...♥ He is so happy and feels so new with that 'never had before' excitement. ♥ ♥Whereas, Anitha feels like dying for sitting next to him so closely and for the same, she has a very bad, sleepless night.

This whole 3 minutes scene of where Kathir feels his love for Anitha (from 7G RAINBOW COLONY), doesn't have any big dialogues... But, only Yuvan's BGM which I would call his best ever!♥ ♥

Earphones please :D 

One of my favourite songs in the world :) Extremely beautiful. Was thinking of recording this for a long long time. Majorly have gone for the feel of the song, as I wanted to try some freestyle, but I believe it has come out very beautifully in just one take. Do follow, like, comment, repost, share :)

Here is my short description on the song: A mom sings to her boy and says please come fast my child and show me your face. The boy is Krishna. Then she goes on describing the great feats her son has achieved. Now the words say fast, "come krishna come fast", that is what the first line means. And one may surely argue that this must be sung fast and not slow. But I feel the description that comes afterwords suggests that the mom is actually describing her child also, which actually puts forth the question, is she in a hurry? So, is the word fast, just a way of showing her yearning to she her boy? Would you praise your child when you are desperate to see him? I dont think so. People may also say, during the first line the mom is just seeing whether her son is there. When the statement repeats again, however, she actually wants him to come and when it repeats again, she wants him "there" and so on (This is surely a good way to look at any song as it leads to lot of musical exploration ). This is portrayed musically by adding more gamakas, where the note stops, volume e.t.c. e.t.c. Though analysis is a good way to look at music, analysis is not music. Music is just what you feel that day. Sometimes an entire day you can be yearning to see your child and not be angry at him or anything, that is what I try to portray in my version. PS. It is so much fun singing Yaman Kalyani, slow :)
