(My) Rain Song Jam

(My) Rain Song Jam Lyrics & Chords

Just a casual jam, with some classical overtones

To those who have seen Grubby Halo perform “Sunny Days”, we generally play the “(My) rain song jam” to conclude “Sunny Days”

I added a “My” to “My Rain Song” because so many ppl already have a “Rain Song”

Grubby Halo with Melvin and Baruk
Guitars – Arul and Vikram
Vocals – Melvin and Arul
Initial drum work – Baruk

If you liked what you heard, or even otherwise would like to know the band:

I shud say, your “Sunny days” performance in the Deccan Herald event was damn impressive….In this piece, the classical overtone is slightly cacophonous.Mainly because you are intuitively singing something that matches the guitaring rather than sticking to a raaga n its notes.There is no hard n fast rule that one shud stick to a scale to make melody, but in classical music , you tweak it wrong, it steals the soul of the music.same has happened here.Try to pin what raaga it is , n try getting all ur ups n downs in the vocals to stick to it.You will have a much soulful combination.This definitely doesnt justify your “Sunny Days”

oh… thx for the comment. the person singing there was just inspired. hence my statement that it was a “casual jam with classical overtones”. i do not intend to hurt the sentiments of classical purists. the person singing there is a blues guitarist who was just sheer inspired to join in on the party. and he dint have an option cuz i was playing his guitar.
LOL

so u maybe quite right in saying “you are intuitively singing something matches the guitaring rather than sticking to a raaga n its notes”.

cheers

hehe… the theme to the conclusion remains the same. the jam is improvised differently each time depending on who is present and how he/she interprets. :)

the theme by itself is not classical, nor was this jam.
sorry about the confusion.
