Very impressive. You rock in the way you explain where it will really help a layman really enjoy knowing what exactly Raja sir songs are. Keep rocking.!Arun prasad Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13326645482598396440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125128644057118787.post-56269801208329447522012-07-30T12:46:35.200-04:002012-07-30T12:46:35.200-04:00Hi Ravi,

It is easy to listen and enjoy a good piece of Raja music without knowing much. You have shown us that we can enhance that listening experience by educating ourselves and understanding the nuances of the great composers' work.arvindhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05446225783704208363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125128644057118787.post-22731890883318373402012-07-04T03:38:24.729-04:002012-07-04T03:38:24.729-04:00Good one Ravi.

So I think this must be the 1st post to cover this topic :-)<br /><br />Indeed, R.D.Burman explored this a lot, in many songs infact. With Kishore and Asha by his side, RD explored his whacky side a lot. Probably his giligiliyappaa (yeh jawani) is another example?<br /><br />Even recently, Vishal Bharadwaj's "Beedi Jalaile" from Omkara has the scat singing, if we may call so - in the 'ding daang ding diding daang ding..' portions (inspired by a guitar riff of RDBurman from one of his songs).<br /><br />Nice to see your examples in the raaja sphere. Never looked at them that way but now that you have highlighted, indeed. I think even the recent "Vaangum panakathum" (Dhoni) has SPB doing some scat-singing in the 2nd interlude portions.Aakarshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15943886586244410709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125128644057118787.post-74867378796121389372012-07-03T08:11:34.489-04:002012-07-03T08:11:34.489-04:00Dear Ravinat,
