Raj Kumar Anjan - Enna Solla Poagiraay from KaNdukondein KaNdukondein..
Raj Kumar Anjan - Enna Soll... Lyrics & Chords
My sincere thanks to Harshan Bro for galvanizing me to attempt Shankar ji’s songs… And this was a long-pending request from him… My apologies for having kept this on hold, all these days… I also admit that I wasn’t that confident then, to cover this dreaded number which fetched him the National Award for the Best Male Playback Singer in 2000… Now with a presumption that the throw in my voice/singing has improved a bit, I greedily tried my best to reproduce this in my voice and style… :D I Am sure there are lotta shortcomings in this cover and I request you all to point at those to help me improve… :)
I dedicate this song to Harshan Bro who has configured my voice to sound this way… :) Thanks to you, brother!!!
Song – Enna Solla Poagiraay…
Movie – KaNdukondein KaNdukondein…
Music – A.R.Rahman…
Singer – Shankar Mahadevan…
Covered by – Raj Kumar Anjan…
K-track Courtesy – Harshan Nambiar…
P.S: Found that the tempo and pitch of the k-track is higher than the original song… Blame my lethargy for finding that after having done with the recording… :) Sorry for the shrieks heard at few places due to the pitch of this k-track…

Hi Raj,
Very nice song selection and you have attempted it well. This is one hell of a song in which Shankar Mahadevan would have sung it beautifully with his powerful+brilliant vocals:)
Initial humming could have been better. Innum konjam powerfula and feeloda irunthirukalam!.because humming part is the address of the genre of this song. In the first charanam “Ilai karaierathe konjam bettera irunthirukalam”!…And after the charanam vara pallaviyum konjam bettera irunthirukalamnu thonuchu…Like "Kaadhalin kelvikku badhil enna mounama (inge highla edukumpothu rendu birgas kooda serthirukalam)
Towards the end, you would have added with some humming or you would have sang that portion. Verumaya vitadhu paatoda azhagaikedupathaga irukindrathu!…Pitching problems were there here and there…mathapadi I don’t find any major mistakes in your singing…feel factor is always a hurdle to you i guess…please work on it…Whatever song you sing is good to hear, but andha feel iladhadhala manasula nikkamatengathu…For eg: ennaye eduthukonga…feel elam nalla kodukuren for the songs…but couldn’t able to eliminate some minor mistakes…small nuances gavanikanaum…samewise for you, feel of the song needs attention!…Then you will be an Expressive singer for sure:)…All the best!…And hope I didn’t say anything wrong…If so sorry!
Thanks & Regards

Commendable effort Raj aNNa!! This is one of the tough songs to render in many aspects! Have heard many playback singers say this on stage…
Could feel the strain of your voice at many places bcoz of the pitch & tempo… adhuvum original ah vida kooda :-o U could’ve sung the original at 5.10 apdinnu thonuchu :) Main thing i noticed was, the feel… That pain was missing Na… Always, I have found ur renditions rich in feel… May be bcoz of the pitch??
Neverthless, enjoyed this in ur voice :)
Thanks & Regards,
Nivetha

Raj… At the outset, it takes a lot of guts to attempt this song… Not an easy song as it might sound… Shankar would have given a lot of throw, and it will do something to the listener… An impact song…. Very very very gud take on it. Very sincere effort. But a few things i observed: Pogirai at 0:21 was abrupt. Could feel little strain in ur voice at places. Very few off’s were felt here and there… Gud feel, gud throw. Track had different chords in a different scalein the first charanam…. Kundhaladi was very gud… It has one more loop, which i feel u shud hv attempted :) But this itself was beautifull… At 5 10 not sure why you had left it blank…. You could have sung and completed that phrase….
Overall… I would sum up and say this was a brilliant effort. But im sure there is a little scope for improvement to take u to a state of perfection which is very critical to transform u to bcom a play back singer that u deserve to be….

Like others have pointed out, I also felt your voice seemed a little strained…Great effort, nevertheless :)
Kitcha Swamy said
Yes, very commendable effort. This is a monster song and it needs a monster like Shankar mahadevan to deal with it :-)
Very bold attempt Raj. Your trademark(feel) was good. Keep it up !!!
Seems like you’re picking lots of Shankar songs these days. Well, you do have a good tonal match too.

Raj bro….glad to see this finally on the shelf:-) Wonderful attempt at this toughie but beautiful composition. Your tone has the shankerness in it:-) lovely throw and I would say this was a brilliant attempt…the little strain in the voice at the higher registers, actually enhances the feel of the song…for me expression could be also depicted with some strain…not many can even think of attempting this song…so kudos for an awesome performance !!!!! Thanks for the dedication too:)

Vasanth said
Raj,What a song pick !! It’s not the blind guts to attempt it,it is your maturity in singing that gave you the confidence to attempt it which has been clearly showcased in this song.For me it was close to original except for the ease at which SM sings the higher ranges :D It was brilliant senior and there were no big shortcomings as you wrote up or may be which couldn’t be identified by a normal audience like me :D Keep going at the same pace and you will be there where you deserve to be :D
Cheerz,

Awesome effort Raj! been awhile since i listened to your songs here. enna monstrous song eduthu paadirukke. such a sincere effort and it shows. ennamo bayangarama merugu eri iruku… recording equipment aye? sama throw and it has captured it well. the empty portion after second stanza felt odd. please reupload with some of your jaalak there too. ore oru off i thought… “saava” and same portion in first stanza (uyir karai…). Puriyaada was fantastic!
Such an open throated rendition… with apt feel which is ettada kani! Thaalattum kaatre vaa next try pannu.

Raj Kanna….
No problem, the pitch & temp are the same as in the original itself as can be confirmed since my humble self used to sing this song in many of my stage programmes !
This song with high pitch portions is a typical SM-style song !
Incidentally, your good self has left out some portion without singing as mentioned above !
It’s my humble request to re-upload this after filling that gap !
Despite that, your rendition has been quite professional & expressive !
LOVED this !
Kudos !
GOD Bless !
Loving Best Wishes,
Thinkal Govind Kumar.

To be honest, I expected a lot more brickbats for this greedy attempt of mine to cover such a monstrous song… I have actually put my throat to rigorous tests, to check if the throw in my vocals has really improved… And the pitch is tad higher than the original which I found out later… Guess that has contributed to those strains… I appreciate all your time for sharing detailed insights about this cover… Will definitely try to impart the required feel to all my ensuing covers… Also will try to eradicate the pitching issues and off-notes… But am quite happy with the overall effort I have put-in… Thanks again…
Thanks,

Hey Raj! :)
Listening to you sing after quite some time… Lovely selection of song! A rocking number by SM!
You have totally rocked in it! Sangathis and all pinnings!! :) The only thing I felt was that your voice was a lil tired and stressed out, probably cos u had already strained enuff in practicing this… This apart, an absolute wonderful performance as always!! :)
Keep rocking! All the very best!

Raj – your voice is very closely matching with Harish Raagavendra’s. Pls try his Nirpadhuve from Bharathi, melliname from Shanjahan, Sarkarai nilave from youth etc if you have not tried already……thanks…
