S.P.B sings others' songs

Topic started by bb (@ 216.217.80.201) on Mon May 14 20:40:59 EDT 2001.
All times in EST +10:30 for IST.

Udhaya gave me these songs by S.P.B which are not originally sung by S.P.B. The songs can be found here: http://www.dhool.com/html/spb_other.html . It looks like this was done during a stage show (and the orchestra is patchy in several places). I personally feel that S.P.B has done a good job in a few songs, like nilavE ennidam nerungaadhE and poonkaathu thirumbumaa. It will be a good exercise to compare him with other singers in this regard. I wish more singers sing such classics that are not originally sung by them.

  Obviously singing some other's song is not going to any good. Because first impressons are hard to change however better u m ake it. SPB Should not have went for it.

  Raghuvaran, I think Sriram is entitled to his opinions as you are to yours..so lets not go overboard over others thoughts/opinions..
  
  I personally feel that its a combination of factors that comes into play here.. I dont think that it could be an imitation..kanne kalaimaane, nilave ennidam etc..have trademark SPB punches..I think it could be due to lack of motivation/practice or playing with amateur musicians or simply because we are used to hearing the original and the original singers have done more than an adequate job..it could also be that SPBs voice is not as fresh as perhaps it was 20 years back although his recent filmi songs dont show much deterioration..
  
  as you have mentioned, rasiga from Star and kavidhaigal sollava from Ullai kollai poguthe are pretty good to hear :-)

  SPB is not stupid to sing others song & he never did, he only sang late M.rafi & KK songs in Delhi because, he is the only singer in India, who can sing all the songs of M.Rafi with great ease & enchancing the songs with his unique style!,
  
  I have emailed SPB (www.spbala.com), he or secretary has confirmed that he has not done this, so lets change the topic & talk more abt this genius SPB!

  i do no agree that those songs are not sung by spb. it is by spb and spb's trademark can be seen everywhere. the background music was a let down and i personally wish that spb comes out with more such songs , especially recent melodies with good back ground music to satisfy his several crore fans in south india.

  Do you guys think that the people who visit this forum are as dumb as you guys, we all no from your DHCP address that you guys are fake, the REAL RAGHUVARAN IS @ DHCP(@ 212.2.14.241) any way this is quite good that this raghu guys got loads of fans!!!
  
  Little bit about my self, My name as you can see is Kumar Sanu, My Guru is none other than Padmashree Dr. S.P.Balasubrahmaniam, his voice is so deep with heavy bass, I feel like a woman with squeaky nasal feminine voice, he is the greatest singer in India, but I am the greatest NASALIST in India, unfortunately my sons Udit naryan, Hariharn, Sonu Nigam, Srinivas, Sukvinder Singh & shanker Mahdevan, have all inherited my NASAL voice, I have taken my rather unfortunate children to California , London & Delhi for some throat operations so, at least they will sound 0.01% like my Guru Dr.SPB, but after the operation my children developed a tonsils & became better NASALIST than me, of which am I bit jealous, because I won the national award for being the greatest NASALIST in Indian History, now you can understand why I am jealous of children, can’t you???.
  
  I some time feel & look like a woman when I sing, which I can not help, but I love being women, it is so exciting with feminine voice, I love to sing for aiswariya & Ravenna Tandon, did you me & my children do the recording in streets begging or in the bathroom, unlike professional singer like Dr.SPB.Dr.KJY,DR> BMK. M.rafi & KK, who all record in composing rooms, but me & my children were not allowed, because the door had sign saying “ DOGS NOT ALLOWED”!!!, what a shame, I am disgrace to the Indian community, so me & my children are going to commit suicide, bye!
  
  STRICTLY TO THE FAKING IDIOT RAGHUVARAN AT

  Fake Raguvaran (#1) (@ 64.124.150.142) ;
  
  At least thanks for admitting you are the fake Raguvaran, but your posting had points, I do not think any body put down a singer intentionaly, but such issues like nasal voice, feminine voice, muthalnk katai, shruthi, layam, pallavi, saranam,sanghathi had to be considered when comparing singers, but in a nice way, cool OK!
  
  Now in terms of Modulation, versatility, expressing feelings, gamaks & punches SPB & M.rafi are experts, although TMS was quite good at this, but KJY though carnatic wizard has not got chance next to SPB or Rafi, He may be better than SPB in carnatic, but SPB proved him self, without any musical training he is also capable of proper carnatic boffin like KJY, BMK, Ghantasala, which is truly outstanding & amazing, take some nasal singers like Hariharan Unni Krishnan, Shanker, even Mano are proper carnatic, well look at them, they can not sing, so would not you agree SPB is gift from god.
  
  If SPB was hindi, he would have been the most famous singer in India, even to better Rafi & KK, but south indian talented artists like SPB,KJY,BMK,PBS,TMS,Ghantasala,AMR,SJ,PS all suffer because they are not northies, it's like saying Michael Jackson is better singer than SPB, because he is known world wide, which may not be true, don't you think so???
  
  Northies are unaware of SPB, so they chant about junks like Kumar Sanu, Udit,Hariharn,Shanker,Sukvindher,sonu nigam, ..etc, that's thier narrow mindness, we should just feel pity for them, it's like every body in India knows "Amitab", how many northies know "sivaji","Rajni","Kamal","IR", but some how ARR manged to break this barrier.

  Thanks Raguvaran@212.2.14.241:

  How do you "diggest" it before swallowing?

  Hello SPB maniacs;
  
  I am so glad 2 see so many SPB fans with So many threads about this awesome voice of Padmashree Dr. SPB, please ignore some ignorant idiots like bharath & Doubter, do not bother replying to them, if you do, they will reply with more garbage.
  
  Now coming back to SPBji , he is the greatest singer in India today, no doubt he has achieved a lot more than the late gem, M.rafi, he has crossed 40,000 songs in 35 years In business, that is a staggering 3 songs a day!!!.
  
  He is nothing but a pure gift of god, as Indian we must all be proud of him. One draw back of SPB is being south Indian, which meant that even though he is better than M.rafi, he is not as famous as M.rafi, which is shame, if he was northie, he would have been more famous than M.rafi, by the M.rafi’s favourite singer is SPB, & SPB’s favourite is M.rafi ,KJY & S.janaki.
  
  He has till date 13 national awards along with KJY, no other singers in Indian History had it or has it now. Besides singing he also dub voices for Kamal, Mohan, NR & few other telugu actors.
  
  In terms of his voice, well every body knows this, he is the ultimate in India today. At 55 he sounds like 25, definition of his voice
  
  1) Heavy bass / manly voice
  2) Only singer along with M.rafi &lata who can sing at the highest pitch (37th Key)
  3) Excellent modulation
  4) Excellent expression of emotions
  5) Ability to sing in 1-37 keys,, even KJY can not do that!!!
  
  
  But now, ARR bought some singers who were singing in streets, clubs & funerals, like HH, what the heck what nasal idiot, Udit son of the great nasalist in the world Kumar sanu, unnikrishnan, nasal & femine voice, srinivas nasal blocked voice, it is very irritating to listen to these idiots. These would not even survive another two years, some singers who sings in bathrooms will come soon,only god knows
  
  SPBji please come back, we beg you and do some justice to your 99.99% of your IFM fans

  What about muthlan kattai and ettan kattai???

  There some idiots who thinks like Raguvaran (@ 64.124.150.135) that I am the only one creating threads about Dr.SPB, perhaps he ought to seek some eye examination, or even a vet optician can check these idiots eye sight, or perhaps they are just jealous, that they are not worth to open thread about their self.
