Vaan Megam - Punnagai Mannan - Illayaraja

Vaan Megam - Punnagai Manna... Lyrics & Chords

Movie: Punnagai Mannan
Music Dr: Illayaraja
Singer: Chitra

Thanks to Uthra who’d posted this song recently, her cover totally reminded me of its lovely rain dance sequence, picturing Revathi. Its a beautiful melody and has beats which can set anybody’s foot tapping. Decided to give it a try.
As for ‘mixing’, I simply added a little reverb, and silenced the parts where am not singing. Didn’t know much what else to do… :)

Hope it is enjoyed, and please do leave your honest feedback…

Cheers
Rekha

Nice one Rekha…… You will learn about mixing very soon, just by the peer pressure from the fellow muzibooians! :)

Rekha: Nicely done. Can’t comment on mixing but liked your version. I liked the flow esp in pallavi.

Wonderful song – good to hear in your voice.

good to see you’re trying your hand in mixing too.

why haven’t you enabled the download? the 64kbps quality is spoiling the clarity of the song :)

Rekha ….great attempt ……you really have a powerful voice, full throated singing. Honestly I am not at all an expert with mixing, as long as the vocals are crystal clear ….I am fine with it….loved your vocals….keep it up. Big THUMBS UP !

ha ha ha ha. Hope u r back to form. ;-) A tough song to render IMO and you have done it well. Mixing doesn’t matter actually and its the voice that s gonna do the talk for any singer. Controlled singing. You have done extremely well treading over the notes and hope to see your covers flooding regularly. All the best for your future renditions.
Thanks & Regards,

Lovely lovely lovely! Love your bold, clear voice! :)
Enjoyed this thoroughly, Rekha! :)

About the “peer pressure” thingie- there are some lazy people who NEVER learn despite all the pressures here and I am the only one in that list! Never got around to understanding mixing so I conveniently outsource it! :D You must try it too- saves some greymatter damage! :D (just kidding)

Rekha …. Is there a Malayalam version of the movie? If so, pls let me know.
Good to hear some good music today.
Honestly, feel at some places yr voice is too loud, u need to improve on the mixing tips and u will do it in future. No worries keep singing.
Looved it. Thanks a lot for sharing.

Beautiful singing Rekha ji (college aah naana, mummy!!!, avlo onnum age illa nu sonninga so ini Rekha ji nu thaan koopduven). The way u released ‘vaan megam’ at 1:16 after hitting high pitch is stupendous. Absolute justice done to singing. Just little reverb apram konjam silence avlo thaan avlo thaana…. ivlo thannadakkama. Nice mixing and u can learn it very soon. Enakkum appdi thaan ellaarum solraanga. Tremendous energy shown, impressed with ur attitude as usual. Keep it up Rekha ji….
