Happy Pongal in Advance

Happy Pongal

Happy Pongal

  • Hi viewers, wish you all a very very happy pongal.
  • The theme song for every Pongal Festival is “Thai Pongalum Pongudhu” from Mahanadhi.
  • Mahanadhi” is one of my all time favorite movies. A great performance by the legendary Actor Kamal Hassan.(We expect more of such classic movies from you sir) and great music by our Maestro Ilaiyaraaja sir.
  • Here is the song attached.Listen, Download and Enjoy.
  • Here is the Lyrics for the song.

    ****கோயிற்பாடகர் குழு****
    பொங்கலோ பொங்கல் பொங்கலோ பொங்கல்
    பொங்கலோ பொங்கல் பொங்கலோ பொங்கல்

    தை பொங்கலும் வந்தது பாலும் பொங்குது பாட்டு சொல்லடியோ
    வண்ண மங்கையர் ஆடிடும் மகாநதியைப் போற்றிச் சொல்லடியோ
    இந்தப் பொன்னி என்பவள் தென்னாட்டவற்கு அன்பின் அன்னையடி
    இவள் தண்ணீர் என்றொரு ஆடை கட்டிடும் தெய்வ மங்கையடி

    ****கோயிற்பாடகர் குழு****
    தை பொங்கலும் வந்தது பாலும் பொங்குது பாட்டு சொல்லடியோ
    வண்ண மங்கையர் ஆடிடும் மகாநதியைப் போற்றிச் சொல்லடியோ

    முப்பாட்டன் காலம் தொட்டு முப்போகம் யாரால
    கல்மேடு தாண்டி வரும் காவேரி நீரால
    சேத்தோட சேர்ந்த வெத(விதை) நாத்து விடாதா
    நாத்தோட சேதி சொல்ல காத்து வராதா
    செவ்வாழ செங்கரும்பு சாதி மல்லி தோட்டம் தான்
    எல்லாமே இங்கிருக்க ஏதும் இல்ல வாட்டம் தான்
    நம்ம சொர்க்கம் என்பது மண்ணில் உள்ளது வானில் இல்லையடி
    நம்ம இன்பம் என்பது கண்ணில் உள்ளது கனவில் இல்லையடி

    தை பொங்கலும் வந்தது பாலும் பொங்குது பாட்டு சொல்லடியோ
    வண்ண மங்கையர் ஆடிடும் மகாநதியைப் போற்றிச் சொல்லடியோ
    இந்தப் பொன்னி என்பவள் தென்னாட்டவற்கு அன்பின் அன்னையடி
    இவள் தண்ணீர் என்றொரு ஆடை கட்டிடும் தெய்வ மங்கையடி

    .”

Concerto for one voice – Harris Jeyaraj

Harris Jayaraj - jean-baptiste maunier - Clemence Saint-Preux

Harris Jayaraj - jean-baptiste maunier - Clemence Saint-Preux

  • One of my friends suggested me to hear the song “Concerto pour deux voix” by Clemence Saint-Preux and Jean-Baptiste Maunier.Its a nice song.(I love this song very much).A must listen for all of us who love good music and voices.
  • The song immediately reminds me of the second interlude in “Ava Enna Enna“(Anjala) song from Vaaranam Aayiram by our Harris Jeyaraj sir.I don’t know why?
  • The female voice in the second interlude of “Ava Enna Enna” song is identical to Clemence Saint-Preux’s rendering in “Concerto pour deux voix”(Please note i said “Rendering” alone).What do you think?
  • “Concerto pour deux voix” is actually an adaptation of “Concerto pour une voix“(Released in 1970) by Saint Preux(Clemence’s father).
  • Listen to the song Concerto pour deux voix by Clemence Saint-Preux and Jean-Baptiste Maunier here.
  • Here is the song “Ava Enna Enna” from Vaaranam Aayiram by Harris Jeyaraj.(The 2nd interlude is from 03:00 to 03:50)
  • Listen to the song “Concerto pour une voix” by Saint-Preux here.

    How do you rate the song "Concerto Pour Duex Voix"?

  • Note: Concerto pour deux voix is released in 2005 i think.The female rendering in Vaaranam Aayiram is identical to Clemence’s song and not the tune.So We can call it as “Concerto for One Voice by Harris Jayaraj” for Vaaranam Aayiram song.Your comments?

A Cover Version by A.R.Rahman?

Benson - Adam schlesinger - Rahman

Benson - Adam schlesinger - Rahman

  • Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na – One of the best albums in 2008.Music by our Master A.R.Rahman.He was Awarded with Filmfare Best Music Director Award for this album.
  • Kahin To” song is everyone’s favorite.Its my favorite too. Such a pleasing song. It always reminds me of “Nothing’s gonna change my love for you” by George Benson.
  • Two days Before, I told my friend(Mr.Kamal) that “Kahin To” is somewhat close to “Nothing’s gonna change my love for you“.And he said “No way.There may be a slight resemblance at the prelude.But I prefer George Benson’s song to this one.{Actually He doesn’t like Kahin To song}”.Well, Opinion Differs.
  • Last Night I was surprised to see this information in wikipedia page for “Nothing’s gonna change my love for you”.
  • A. R. Rahman reproduced a similar version of this song in Hindi for the film ‘Jane Tu Ya Jane Na’ in 2008.”

    - This is the actual information filed(not by me for sure) under Cover Versions of “Nothing’s gonna change my love for you” wikipedia page.Check it out.

  • “Nothing’s gonna change my love for you” was originally recorded by George Benson in the year 1984.Listen to the original song here.
  • Here is the most famous among the cover versions of “”Nothing’s gonna change my love for you”.Recorded by by Hawaiian singer Glenn Medeiros.
  • Listen to the song “Kahin To” by A.R.Rahman here.
  • When I was discussing this thing a moment ago with my friend Mr.Senan, he mentioned a song “Way Back Into Love” from movie “Music and Lyrics“which is quite similar to “Kahin To” backing music.(that May be illusionary)
  • Anyway Listen to the song “Way Back Into Love” by Hugh Grant and Haley Bennett here.Song written by Adam Schlesinger.

    Question 1 : Do you think "Kahin To" is a cover version of "Nothing's Gonna change my love for you"? Question 2 : Do you think "Kahin To" backing music is similar to "Way back in to love"?

Engenge Engenge – Full Circle

Deva - Loreena McKennitt - Yuvan Shankar Raja

Deva - Loreena McKennitt - Yuvan Shankar Raja

  • Engenge Engenge” song from “Nerukku Ner” by Deva is one of my very favorite songs.
  • The prelude to the song is something exceptional.But the bitter truth is that the best part of the prelude(What i felt) is actually not deva’s original.It’s taken from Loreena McKennitt’s outstanding piece of music “Full Circle” from the album “The Mask and the Mirror”.
  • Every song from the album “Nerukku Ner” by Deva has some shades of inspirations from other composers.Let’s talk about it later.
  • Listen to the great piece of music “Full Circle” by Loreena McKennitt here.(Released in 1994).
  • Here is the song “Engenge Engenge” from Nerukku Ner by Deva.(Released in 1997).
  • Though a small piece(say a sample) from the original is used by Deva for that song, the impact made by that small piece on the song is great (In My Opinion).
  • One more interesting thing i forgot to mention-Another song “The Mystic’s dream” from the same album “The mask and the Mirror” by Loreena McKennitt is used by deva for the prelude to “Engenge Engenge”.
  • At the start of the prelude to “Engenge Engenge” you can hear a female voice(Low tone) and it is more like Loreena’s “The Mystic’s Dream” if i am right.
  • Hear the wonderful piece of music “The Mystic’s dream” by Loreena here.
  • How do you like this music? IMO, “The Mystic’s dream” also reminds me of Yuvan’s background music style(in 7g Rainbow Colony, Kadhal Kondaen or Thulluvadho Ilamai).Whats your opinion guys?
  • We should appreciate Deva sir for this song “Engenge Engenge”.The prelude is sampled from two of Loreena’s songs.Then What about the interludes,Pallavi and charanams?You may ask? Only God(if exists) and Deva Knows.
  • Please rate this post and comment if possible.Thank you guys.See you later.

"The Mystic's Dream" reminds me of Yuvan's BGM style in 7g Rainbow Colony.Do you Agree?
