Kuzhaloodhum Kannanukku

Kuzhaloodum Kannanukku | Online recorder
Composer: Illayaraja
Original Vocalist: Chitra
Movie: Mella Thirandhadhu Kadhavu
Karaoke Track: Tamilmusica.com; Me, Audacity

Finally, a song from Illayaraja in Tamil. Growing up listening to ARR, I never really listened to much of Raja until just 2 or 3 years ago. And even then, it was passive listening. Very recently, after experiencing 'Illaya Nila' from the movie 'Payanangal Mudivadhillai', I can see why people refer to him as God. I think for the very first time after 'Mandram Vantha' from 'Mouna Raagam', his music truly touched me.

Kuzhaloodhum Kannanukku was made into the Hindi version of 'Baatein Hawa Hain Saare' in 'Cheeni Kum' sung by Shreya Ghoshal. After listening to the Tamil version, I like it much better than the Hindi.

I have looked high and low for the minus one track. Finally found one suitable enough and brought down the pitch to fit my range. Hopefully, this is a new and improved version! :D

My fave from Bombay Jayashree after Vaseegara. Her husky voice adds to the romance of the song, as do the lyrics. I think there is a Hindi version of this song too.

The very beginning and end are slightly messy, the rest is decent for starters; but I have a long long way to go!
