Ennada Pollaadha Vaazhkai - Cover by Arvind, from Thappu Thaalangal
Ennada Pollaadha Vaazhkai -... Lyrics & Chords
A quiet Sunday (after a long time) inspired me to record this song; This is a quick one take recording and a humble effort!. Hope you like it!.
For those of you not familiar with Tamil, this song is about a good man turned crook philosophising about life and his predicament; he says “what’s life?! Don’t worry man! We are all doing and feeling the same old things! etc. etc.” He is drunk too and I think you get the drift!.
The movie Thappu Thaalangal was a movie by K. Balachander in 1978 starring Rajini and Saritha. It was pretty forward for its time portraying the dark truths about society. Vijaya Bhasker (Kannada fame) was the music director and his style is pretty unique and catchy!. Sung by the evergreen SP Bala in his own unique genius style!.
Hope you enjoy and looking forward to your comments!.

That was an awesome performance Arvind. The expressions were so natural, bold and effortless – just loved it. The subtle voice cracks added a lot of depth to the emotions. One of your best covers in my opinion.

Arvind R said
Thanks Roshine. This one take turned out OK I thought and so posted it. I could have done arguably better if I had taken it in portions I think!. But sometimes being impulsive is good too and at least I get something on the board!. Thanks.

Arvind, Ennada Pollatha is good….good timing of releasing the song….heard some of the Arvind magic of the UK days….some areas are flat…so, watch that. You need to watch your throat….it is sounding hoarse at times….do you smoke? Do some throat exercises and drink lot of hot water with honey and ginger. All the best and have fun. Ravi
Arvind R said
He,he … Ravi old Pal, nice to hear from you here!. Yes throat not as good as our London days … of course I don’t smoke … gave up almost 15 yrs ago, but now I have a sinus problem!. Yeah right honey and ginger… where have I heard that before!! (hehe … still it helps I guess!). Thanks for listening and will be in touch. Cheers Ravi … (so when did you pick up your guitar last!!)>……by the way the hoarseness was a bit deliberate I think ;-) … mood of song pa!……
