Agni Kunjondru ( Mahakavi Bhaarathiyaar )- Unplugged

Agni Kunjondru ( Mahakavi B... Lyrics & Chords

Have been sick for the last couple of days, and thought will do this despite a terrible sore throat and cold. This song has never ceased to bring peace to me in the past.

“Agni kunjondru kandaen
Adhai angoru kattilor ponthidai vaithaen
Vendhu thanindhadhu kaadu, thazal veerathil kunjendrum
Mooopendrum undo?”

is probably one of the most famous lines of Bharathiyaar. This very short version is based on the virutham piece done by Bombay Jayashree in her album “Atma- the soul”

Thanks for listening, and this marks my first unplugged on Muziboo.

Unsure if I can post anymore before we usher Christmas & the New Year, so here’s wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a wonderful, safe and happy New Year!

I closed my eyes and heard ur rendition, just felt you took me some where for 2 minutes and 38 seconds, after which I opened my eyes to realise that I’m still in my room surfing on Muziboo. I felt as if I was in my home town Chennai in the narrow busy street of Ayodhya Mandapam, where I used to frequent being crazy over Nithyashree’s voice. If u asked me whether I liked your rendition – Well I prefer to tell d truth – I GOT MESMERIZED!!! Looking forward to hear more of this sort from u….

Bala (composer/producer) said

Wow…… This is absolutely brilliant! When you were singing those initial "aaahhh"s, I was like saying Nayakan Kamal "aahh"s! For my singing talents, I could do only this :(

Just a thought…. Instead of widening out the vocals, you could have had it at the center and widened the tampura track. Btw, I am not sure whether you can call this “unplugged” as you have done ‘some’ processing after the recording! :)

What a superb rendition, Meera. Seems like it’s coming out straight from your heart which is where the notes should come out from a good singer. No doubt, you have achieved that with full distinction. Simply loved it.

Adithi, TGK & Sudha— there was a time in my life when I was just doing unplugged numbers with a cheap koss mic and an electronic shruthi, but that was so way long ago, think I had almost forgotten how immensely satisfying these can be :-D Thanks for your time and so glad to see this was enjoyed!

Meera, Brilliant! I have been enjoying a few unplugged versions of Bharatiyar poems here. This is yet another masterpiece. I liked the intro alaap very much and the serenity you have brought into the song.
When you attempt such great compositions not only do you stand apart as an artist, but also establish yourself as a genuine singer of outstanding class, as you have done with this song. Congratulations to you!
Keep singing!
