Ninaithu Ninaithu - 7G Rainbow colony

Need I say more. This song is soul stirring if I may use a cliche. There is no other way to describe it.It is an old favorite that I've attempted many times but never had the guts to post...I gave it one more try. My husband who is my first critic - keeps pushing me to do better. He still gave me only 70% for this. He thinks I should work on this more. But I was just determined to finish and post this by tonight. So here it is. As I do more of more of this, I am pushing myself harder. It never sounds good enough. But that's the whole purpose of this blog. To keep trying and learning and hopefully getting better at this. In the process if I have given you a few minutes of listening pleasure I couldn't ask for more. As always please post feedback, both positive and negative. Thank you.

Vizhigalil Oru - Dheiva Thirumagal

After a looooong hiatus - I am going to try this again. I downloaded all the software and converters needed dug out my old microphone and headphones. This exquisite song by Saindhavi, composed by her fiancé G.V. Prakash is just made for her voice! My voice is much much bolder than that does not nearly do justice to the mixture of romance and pathos emotions that the composition evokes. Nevertheless I tried my best with the time and resources I had. Comments keep this blog going. So please post them. Critical advice is welcome as always. I hope you enjoy it.

Enge Yenathu Kavithai - Kandukonden Kandukonden

Who doesn't like this song? Chithra and A.R. Rehman at their best. Srinivas' harmony also lends great support to the song. I felt happy that I am improving my recording and mixing skills everyday. I felt that this one has come out much better than my previous karaoke attempt.

Unakkul Naane - Patchai Kili Muthucharam

I tried to create a karaoke track with the tools I had. It's not great, but I figured that I have to start somewhere. This song composed by Harris Jayraj has two versions, one sung by Madhushree where the pallavi is sung on a higher octave and the other one by Bombay Jayshree hitting the lower notes(perfect for her voice). I have tried both. Comments appreciated as usual.

This song fetched the National Award for P.Suseela amma as most of you are aware. It was tough for me scale(pitch)wise. Please pardon flaws. However, you are always welcome as usual to point them out and help me improve.

This song is on blogger "Santyappa"s request. Thanks for suggesting these timeless songs. Will post the next one shortly.

Once again, I picked a classic all of these songs are the trademark voice test songs of any wannabe singer and I am no exception. I tried fiddling with the Audacity software that accomplished blogger Jo suggested, somehow I do not have the finnese that he has in using software for recording over karaoke tracks. It did not sound good - In the end I just stuck to singing with no music.

Although composed by both MDs this has the shades of Illayaraja than MSV. Another song 'dhil dhil dhil manathil' is closer to MSV's style- possibly because P.Suseela has sung it??

I messed up the first stanza (rightly pointed out by my husband Leo) but I really liked the way the second stanza came out.

I had previously posted this ( not as a streaming audio) I decided to try this again as I can never be satisfied with the way this song comes out...if I get the humming right, then I miss some notes in the stanza...if everything seems right, then I miss pronouce some words...God it drives me nuts - but at one point I just had to give up and post it as I figured I can never get this right not even close...
