Good Morning Raagas

The wonderful feeling of waking up with a Raaja song is not something unusual for me. The song stays with me through out the day and keeps playing at the back of my mind like a bgm. Even when I wake up with one, I meet the other charms in the latter parts of the day and they allow the bgm to remain at its place.
Often I am greeted by, ‘Idi swathi jallu ’in the morning. A song from ‘Jamadagni’...
For me listening to it is like slowly getting into a pleasant twister that sets me free only after giving extreme delight. The base guitar in the prelude... the second interlude...just feel for yourself:-) and also the rhythm.. Great,fantastic...Are these two words adequate to show our appreciation?
You decide...

Malayalam Pearls

Since my childhood was adorned with more friends from Kerala, Malayalam was always nearer to me. Even though there was a liking for the language, I never tried to explore its beauty unless and until I was greeted with ‘Thumbi Vaa’ from the Maestro, which was my first Malayalam song. In due course, in my pursuit, I came across many Malayalam pearls of Maestro. At all times I had a doubt whether my friends from Kerala had this chance because they too were staying away from their land. I still have the curiosity, and yearn to share these pearls with them.

A pearl from the film Aa Rathri for you. I love the Bass guitar work in this song!

Nostalgic Indeed!

You were not apparent when I was small
As I grew up you were perceptible
I appreciated you for saving scores of things for me
And presenting them when needed
Sometimes it made me proud to have you
Sometimes I preferred staying with you for hours long
Always I adored you for being helpful to me in all ways
I am with you and you are with me
I Thank you ‘My Memory’.

Timeless Song from the Genius saved in my mind's memory, Enjoy!!!
