Rudram - unknown chanters

The Gundecha Brothers giving a dhrupad rendition of Shiva Shiva in Raag Adana.

Shiva Shiva Raag Adana Gundecha Brothers

A Sanskrit adaptation of Blue Oyster Cult's "Don't Fear the Reaper" with lyrics by Vaishnavi S (http://twitter.com/utprekshaa) & SP Suresh (https://twitter.com/vajrabhrt)

The guitar parts were recorded in 6 separate layers and panned left and right. In the interlude, there is a key change from A to G and the raga playing there is Hemavathi. 

And oh, the wife did some of the backing vocals

Lyrics

All our times have come आगता अस्माकं कालाः 
Here but now they're gone आगम्य गता अधुना
Seasons don't fear the reaper ऋतवो मरणान्न त्रस्यन्ति  
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain नापि वायुस्सूर्यो वर्षाणि च

Come on baby... Don't fear the Reaper आगच्छ प्रिये ... मृत्युम् मा भैषीः 
Baby take my hand... Don't fear the Reaper करमादत्स्व... मृत्युम् मा भैषीः
We'll be able to fly... Don't fear the Reaper उद्गच्छाव ... मृत्युम् मा भैषीः
Baby I'm your man अहं तवास्मि 

Valentine is done  मन्मथोत्सवस्तु नः 
Here but now they're gone परंतु तौ दूरं गतौ
Romeo and Juliet प्रेमलोकं प्राप्य
Are together in eternity... अनन्तसहवासः

Repeat chorus

Bho Shambho in "Anubhoothi" Fusion

In memory of my beloved spiritual younger brother, Mayoora. Playing this  rudram can be very soothing to the soul -- especially after it  has just recently  left this physical plane -- and as they adjust to their new surroundings. Play it  only if you feel compelled. It has soothing benefits to all who chant this rudram.

Raga Surabhi celebrates this year’s Pongal and Makara Sankranti with this popular composition, Harivarasanam, the song which has been immortalised in the magical voice of the veteran singer, the one and only, Dr. K J Yesudas. We hope you will enjoy listening to our version of this beautiful song too! 

It is a happy coincidence that the song is being released around the same time as Dr. K J Yesudas celebrates his birthday. Raga Surabhi joins all music lovers across the world in wishing this legend a very happy birthday and a great year ahead!
