Allegra (cover version) from Kandasaamy

Allegra (cover version) fro... Lyrics & Chords

Have always found this song funny in a very odd way, for its absolutely nonsensical lyrics, and ofcourse the gibberish that comes as male chorus :)

We (Thillana) performed this in Oct of last year, and have had a kind of hate/love relationship with this number. I had tons of fun recording this, and hope you all enjoy listening….

Movie: Kandasaamy
Original music by: Devi SriPrasad
Originally sung by: Rita & Chorus
Lead vocals and backing harmonies by: Meera Manohar
Mixed by: Meera Manohar

Hi Meera :)

Lucky I’m here first – let me hear whats in store and update you.

Meera: Now that I’ve heard the song – I’d like to say some funny thing about this song sequence wherin Shriya would invite Vikram to view her ‘webcast’? online while the latter is busy with income tax raid at her father’s house – such a opening song sequence ofcourse requires this kind of nonsensical lyrics :)

Coming back to your singing – loved it! Good expressions all throughout make the song enjoyable esp. andha ‘hey’ & ‘ah’ ellam and wonderful mixing – enakkum indha maadiri pucca va panni tharuveengaennu ninaikiraen :)

Luv & Cheers!

First of all….totally agree with u that the lyrics is almost totally nonsense….reminds me of a program of SPB on Jaya TV, i think, where there was another lyricist who was trying to explain the meaning of this song….was interesting.

secondly….awesome that u r singing this song. we usually have gotten used to romantic, soft, carnatic and the kind of songs that remain in our hearts after 20 or more years….this is totally different….lol….will not remember this for that long. full marks for singing this one….u deserve credit for being versatile.

thirdly, if i had to be a critic — the feel is very good, but a little lacking in energy. otherwise very nice rendition.

fourthly — one of the very few songs in which Shreya looks hideous……lol

Good Job!!!

Liked it Meera … thought you had done it very well indeed. Good throw and some cool effects especially last word “…theyyyyyyyy” … loved that ending vibrato there … was that just you or some plugin effect?.

I think to be honest I found this to be one of your very best just in terms of bringing the listener closer to the song … you made the apparently meaningless lyrics to jump out for the listeners to interpret with their own chosen meaning. BTW, your recording setup is really cool and I think you must be pretty tech savvy too. Cheers on a good one that I enjoyed wholesomely!.

Versatile Meera :)

Recognition of a talent is a complex thinking process…. People usually see a song (or any creative piece of work) as a whole package and often forget to appreciate the beauty of the ingredients! Considering that, I am sure this song will not top your music chart, though I consider this as one of your BEST SONGS.

EXCELLENT WORK!

I have little guts to venture into a genre as this but admire anyone that does step out of the comfort zone to do a stupendous job….but then I think there probably is no such zone like that for you! :)

Asuri!!!! Asuri!!! Asuri!!!
Asuraththanamaana singing…. Chocolate thaan…. ;-) One of your best renditions topping the chart in Muziboo. I could find a substantial difference between your last rendition and this one…. This is the perfection of urs, I was talking about. I could remember watching the video posted in ur page in facebook performed by Thillana. ‘ha’ ‘yeh’ – superb…. The succeeding ‘Allegra’ was rendered softly giving a variation and the later parts were rendered with the required tint. A Total awesome package – monstrous performance. A power-packed exhibition of a kinetic number by an adroit and versatile talent. So what genre next??
