Pramadhavanam - Immortal Malayalam Song...

Pramadhavanam - Immortal Ma... Lyrics & Chords

Hi Friends…
This is an evergreen song composed by the great Raveendran Master… Wonderfully sung by Dr. KJY! All the songs from this movie are a masterpiece! This song especially was and is still loved by every malayali and also people from other regions who are familiar with Malayalam songs…

This song is a personal favorite of mine and also my family… I am sure it is also the same with many of you guys out there… Not at all an easy one to be singing… Especially when your voice is not in great shape… But here is a humble attempt of mine to sing this evergreen hit…

I am sure there are issues, as this was recorded at one stretch due to voice issues… I know I can do much better than this and I sure will do it… Please feel free to let me know your opinion on my attempt… I shall certainly use your pointers when I re-do this once again when my voice is gets better… I could not resist my temptation to sing this one and upload… Hence, taking this giant leap of uploading it now…

Song: Pramadhavanam Veendum…
Movie: His Highness Abdullah
Composer: Raveendran Master
Lyrics: Kaithapram Damodaran Namboodiri
Singer: Dr. KJY
Cover & Mix: Sushanth

So here goes my humble attempt at this immortal song!

Sush!!! Sometimes our earnest temptations bring out the best… It is substantiated here through your rendition… One-stretch recording is what I always love to do… Deepesh has asked me to listen to some songs from this very movie few days back… I couldnt get out of the spell after listening to the songs of this movie… This song demands breath control, unassaible control in delivering higher and lower registers and elegant flow… This is really a creditable effort… Would love to listen to your own compositions soon… All the best!!!
Thanks & Regards,

And here is the great song!!!! lots of applause for choosing this! you have been hitting right at almost all places…. here is my review.

humming was awesome :)

pramadavanam sounded like premadavanam…

“ritu raagam choodi @ the repeat line was not in right pitching”

kaikumbil nirayumbol “en….” was excellent.

sarayuviloru chudu – @ second time was really nice!

“kaviyude………aniyumbol” – was not proper… need polishing.

ethetho- malarayi ozhukiya jnan" excellent

“yadukula- unarthumbol” need polishing.

“innitha…” was good!

totally it was nice to listen to…. and u need to be appreciated for bringing in the mood :)

Sushanth, nice of you to attempt this classic of Raveendran master. I can say it is good in bits and pieces-resulting from a single take. In many places clarity of notes was lacking, and the route went off the raga scale. In both the charanams, the ending ascend of notes were totally off the Jog scale.
Sushanth, I feel you are capable of delivering a more perfect output if you took some more time to construct the song brick by brick. These are classics, if you like them, you have to treat them with respect. A song which the great Yesudas took hours to perfect, dont think of attempting in one stroke.
congrats for the good attempt.

Sushanth, tough song and you have done an awesome job. And you have brought out the brugai and alaaps very well – too good man. And your voice is coming out rich and melodious.
All performances have scope for improvements so I hope I can share some feedback. Some high notes and the some other areas as you do a fast up-down sangati, where shruti is getting impacted.

Overall a lovely effort.
Kudos! :-)

@Kalachechi – Thank you so much for the lovely words of appreciation and also for fav my humble effort! :)

@Chitra – Thank you so much! Pointer humbly accepted…

@L.K – Thank you so much! Really happy in knowing tht I have been able to sing this song atleast to this extent… God willing, I shall certainly try some more great numbers… :)

@Ramya – Thank you so much for those really encouraging words! :)

@Thinkal Sir – Thank you so much! Really happy in knowing that you liked my humble effort!

@Babuetta – Thank you so very much for those lovely words! Means a lot to me… I am surealy coming back… I am still trying my best… I know there are issues in this song too… But this is just to knw how a listener would feel listening to this song if I am singing it live… Really happy in knowing tht I have been able to do somethg in this immortal number!

@Sheba – Thank you so much! Really happy in knowing that you liked my humble effort! :)

@Rosh – This I am sure is a song which every malayali would love to sing… It is kind of a benchmark for the new era of malayalam cine music! It took me a lot of time to decide if I must cover this song or not… :) Thank you so much for the lovely words! Pointers noted Rosh! :)

@Rajeevetta – Thank you so much for the pointers… Humbly accepted… I shall certainly work on them… With due respects to the song, its composer, singer, lyricist and all the others who have worked on it, I would like say that I have sung this sung with a lot of respect to all who worked on this masterpiece… There is a thin line of difference between attempting a song at one stretch and paying respect to it… IMHO I would sing a song only when I feel there is somethg special in it and this feeling would come only when I respect the song… Attempting to sing a song at a stretch does not necessarily mean disrespecting the song or all the efforts the professionals put behind it… I have never tried nor want to compare my efforts with the great Dr. KJY, cos I cannot even achieve 10% of what he would have done to any song, especially this one… Building a song brick by brick is definitely possible with the technology available to us… However, I do not believe in this to be honest, as those bricks will definitely not help you when u have to perform the same song live… There honest, this will definitely help you make the song perfect or atleast near perfect, but then what happens to the perfection when you have to sing the same song live? Not many will be able to reproduce it… That is the perfection I am after…. So I only use this technique when needed most, especially for songs where I do not have the breathe control for the song and also sometimes when I record with Unni, as he believes in gettg the song as perfect as possible… Even I too believe in perfection, but then my voice is not supporting multiple recording sessions to be honest… Hence, I uploaded this only know what an audience would feel like if I sing this live on stage… This is what I mentioned in my write up too… And definitely not with the intention to disrespect the song sir… Raveendran master my fav music director and all his songs are gems! I treat them with utmost respect… I sincerely apologize if I have written anythg wrong here, but then I just wanted to make my intentions clear… Sorry if I hurt your feelings by my words or my efforts in singing… I shall strive to do much better sir… Thank you once again for the comments and feedback… :)

@Jaishree – Thank you so much! Happy to know you liked my effort!

@Rinu – Thank you so much for those lovely words! :)

@Sreedhar Sir – Thank you so much for the lovely feedback and the pointers… I definitely will work on them for sure… :D

@Harshan sir – Thank you so much for the constant support and feedback! Really happy to have you here again… I shall certainly work on the higher registers… As mentioned hve issues with my voice now… this is just a test piece… Really happy to receive pointers from all of you!

my favourite Malayalam song of all time. lovely attempt bro. one of the hardest compositions and i feel that u need a little more practice to make this one better.
it is very nice the way it is….but i feel that u could do better with more practice…mainly with some of the KJ brigas which are 99% impossible….but what guts u have man to cover this song….lovely ragam of Jog
loved the lines “Ededo kathayil”
“kaviyude gaanara” line needs improvement in both stanzas

@Vishak – Thank you so much for such encouraging comments bro! Really happy in knowing that you liked my effort in this one… Indeed it is very difficult to sing anywhere close to what the great KJY sings… :) This is just a humble attempt of mine to sing this immortal number, just thinking that I am performing live on stage… Am happy that I was able to do atleast lil in this case… I shall be re-doing ths later with a better voice with all the mistakes corrected. :)

Great attempt of this evergreen classic Sushanth. Keep practicing to improve on the subtle details. The notes in both charanams starting from ‘Kaviyude’ and ‘Yadhukula’ needs attention. Also, try to open up more at the high registers. Kudos for attempting this toughie.

Dear Sushanth,

Congrats for trying this song! But singing is only average and not up to the mark. Have to practice more and more when you singing a song like this. If we take, Dasettan’s song as 100%, your’s is only 30 – 40%. I am sure that you can improve lot and sing far better than this. All the best wishes dude
